The rental home where four University of Idaho students were found dead in November will be demolished, school officials said.
University President Scott Green said in a post on the school’s website Friday that the owner of the house, located in the nearby city of Moscow, offered to give it to the university, which will have it torn down.
“This is a healing step and removes the physical structure where the crime that shook our community was committed,” the post states. “Demolition also removes efforts to further sensationalize the crime scene.”
The deaths of four students — 21-year-olds Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen and 20-year-olds Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin — in the home shook the university campus and led police on a weeks-long search for a suspect.
