Officials believed that the attack was ...targeted... but still have not indicated why the students were singled out, in order to preserve the integrity of the investigation, they said. The coroner said that the four victims were likely asleep during the attack, however, some had defensive wounds and each victim was stabbed multiple times. HORROR SCENE A map published by DailyMail showed where each of the victims was discovered within the layout of the home. Two victims were found on the second floor while the others were found on the third floor. Two appeared to be sleeping in a bed together, while the others were each found in separate bedrooms. Two additional roommates were at home during the attack but did not wake up until later Sunday morning, police said. A 911 call reporting an unconscious person was made with one of the roommates' phones at 11.58am, police said. However, authorities would not identify the person who made the call. They did clarify the suspected killer did not make the call. Police shared at a press conference on Wednesday that they have confirmed that a 911 dispatcher spoke to multiple people from one of the surviving housemates' phones. While the exact time of the murders remains unclear, Moscow Mayor Art Bettge said the victims likely died between 3 and 4am. Police clarified that the students were not tied up and gagged. There was no sign of sexual assault. Officials said they are currently investigating how the suspect could murder four people without waking up the two roommates who were found alive and unhurt in the large home. The two are not suspects in the case, police confirmed. FINAL MOVEMENTS Meanwhile, haunting video footage showed two of the victims chatting and getting a late-night snack at a food truck on a night out just hours before their brutal deaths. Police said the two had just been at a local bar together. Cops looked into the video, which shows a hooded mystery man near the two women, identified as Mogen and Goncalves, as they wait. They noted in their most recent press conference that the man has been investigated and is not a suspect. The police captain said that Mogen and Goncalves arrived home at 1.45am. The two other victims, Chapin and Kernodle, were also out at a fraternity party that night, Lanier said, arriving home at a similar time. Mortensen and the other surviving roommate Bethany Funke got home around 1am, according to Lanier. Alivea Goncalves, Kaylee's sister, previously told Inside Edition that Kaylee called a man named Jack six times between 2.26 and 2.52am in the morning. Her roommate Moden also called Jack three times as well from 2.44 to 2.52am. However, the pair's motives for doing so are unknown. Kaylee's parents have now revealed to the Daily Beast that Jack was their daughter's ex-boyfriend and said that he called seven times within the time frame that Kaylee's sister gave. However, Kaylee's parents are convinced that her former lover, 26, had nothing to do with the murders. "We are supporting him, and we know in our hearts and our minds and our souls and the depths of our soul, Jack is hurting," Kristi told Fox News. "Kaylee and Jack would have eventually been married. They would have eventually been married, and they would have eventually had children." Police are aware of the calls but did not give any additional information on their significance. A suspect has not been identified. The FBI and Idaho State Police are assisting in the investigation. Col Kedrick Wills of the Idaho state police explained that they have collected 103 pieces of evidence at the crime scene, and are processing 4,000 photographs, while also relying on a 3D scan of the home, 1,000 tips, and 150 interviews thus far.
