God bless the medical examiners and the others that hold similar roles like this awesome woman. I appreciate what all of you do. Thank you and your families so much. You are all heroes to me.

The male victim was a triplet. I watched the interview with his parents. So sad.

even the coroner acted shaken by this...must of been a real mess. RIP

This is so horrible! Pray for the families

Thank goodness SOMEONE is answering questions!

The trauma that LE and Medical personnel have seen must cause PTSD. May these young people get justice.

I love how news reporters pretty much try to pry "most gruesome" "horrifying" out of her but she wasn't giving in.

As a parent you would feel less anxious knowing your daughter is rooming with three other girls and not living alone!😓This is horrible!! 🙏💔💔💔💔

How is it that the public is not in danger? Have they caught the person responsible for this?

I hope they catch who did this..cause this is extremely sad and very disturbing..how did they manage to murder 4 people and not get caught...or seen... unbelievable!!!!!!!! Someone knows something.

May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God Rest In Peace. Amen. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💔💔💔💔

I am so confused how they keep saying public is not at risk but yet 4 homicides hiw does that make sense shame on them for not being more clear

So you, Cathy Mabbutt, a 16 year coroner veteran are clueless as to why a coroner is called to a crime scene as soon as police are on scene? Why bother calling you at all until they are done with their investigation after 5:30? You were to show up and take possession of the bodies. 16 years and you don't know that? You are responsible for keeping the bodies out of the way of investigators.You alone are delegated the task of ensuring the bodies remain intact, uncompromised and uncontaminated. Officer Payne, in his second but not last attempt to explain the presence of the tan leather knife sheath said that time, he discovered it under Maddie. So he is either placing it there or doing who knows what way close to a body and where are you? What time were their deaths? You think you could have gotten a better Idea at 12-1 o'clock than another 5 or 6 hours later? For a bunch of people who think they are hidden from the rest of the world by a bunch of trees you seem to be under the impression you can outsmart everybody as long as you have mainstream journalist hacks as pool boys. I've never known anyone who agreed to pay Later to indulge in self-serving practices while they watch the lives of others around them be destroyed due to their actions left unscathed by Later.. Are you thinking Later will forget about you and not collect on your promise to pay? Later never forgets. So I suggest you bask in the luxury of your plunder while you can. Oh yeah, IMO.

mc butt whre are the evidence photos you took ???? WHERE ARE THEY ???

Prayers for these victims and family's.

So sorry for the families

May the Good Lord Bless all 4 of these souls……

Is it typical for a medical examiner or coroner to go on tv a day or two after a mass murder and talk about details of the scene/bodies?!?

It’s disturbing how these rookies are fishing for gruesome details. It’s so unprofessional and creepy.

Cathy mabutt is the coronor how is it even remotely possible that a person whos a coronor with 16 years at least experience does not know and isnt aware of the time of death in this case seems extremely suspicious to me

They're dead. The most important thing is catching the killer now. Fight now. Cry later.

So sad for all involved. We have to be aware of who we call friends and ask about the people they're hanging with.

Why are the reporters badgering this lady they know damn well she isn't allowed to divulge any information. Anyway, I've never been to Idaho but lived in the state below it hopefully one day... May these 4 young people rip and condolences to their family & friends

Another official said the students were killed around 3 or 4 a.m. in the morning but their bodies were not discovered until much later that day. Someone might've tried to call them and they didn't answer or maybe someone was supposed to be at work or an appointment and didn't show up. Also, they said they died by a sharp, serrated edge implement, so they were stabbed/cut.

I'm so sad about this.

She's a most unprofessional coroner/ attorney on the side

So very sad and I hope they get justice soon

God bless you... 🙏 It can't be easy...

SHE IS NOT BEING 💯HONEST! IMO

I would imagine this was done in their sleep. I just can't wrap my mind around how one didn't survive or a 911 call wasn't made unless the victims were sleeping. I hope they never even realized what was happening before they passed.

She's not an MD. She's also a Defense Attorney. Conflict of interest much?

Praying for their families

My prayers are with the families, friends, and the community. Also God bless the ME and the police for having to see that. I'm sure it wasn't easy.

I can’t understand why this coroner is talking to the media. There should only be one stream of public communication. This is jeopardising the investigation.

💙my heart goes out to these young college students 💜I pray for them and their families💙 something is not adding up ....👁👁 this is serious FOUR homicides and the public is not in danger???? seriously??? they're holding something back ... how did they die? who is the murderer ?is the murderer running around Idaho ? this investigation stinks this is simply bonkers😱

THIS IS A STRANGE ONE FOR SURE!

Something is off about this woman. She doesn’t believe what she’s saying. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Officials are acting shady as hell about this.

Medical examiners are people fascinated in a weird morbid way to experience crimes like this! This lady has so much to say but it’s holding on so much because is an open investigation!! Look at her body language! Speaks more than her voice….?jmo

My heart is with their friends and family

How in the world are 4 people stabbed to death in one house & 2 other people didn’t hear it happen &/or didn’t report it until hours later?? LE said the other 2 roommates weren’t in a hostage situation so they weren’t tied up & muzzled. So how did they not hear & report?? I lived in a house with 3-4 other roommates in college & there’s absolutely NO way possible (even if I was passed out drunk) that I wouldn’t have heard & known someone, much less 4 people, were brutally stabbed to death in the house!!! This is insane!!!

So sad. 💜

I'm trying to get my head around this case as I'm imagining the scenarios around 4 sleeping individuals being stabbed to death. If one girl was stabbed and she was presumably as suggested a fighter and was shown to have had the bruisings that she did show signs of a struggle on fighting back wouldn't that have woken the others up from their sleep? If there was only one perpetrator than the others would have scrambled from the commotions of the other/others. Was there more than one perpetrator or was it made possible for this one attacker because the young individuals(victims) were drugged prior to their demise and had no way of reacting upon their automated instincts in a fight/flight response kicking in during the process of attack? How far apart asleep were they from the others. Two that weren't attacked means that they weren't the targets or maybe through luck, their bedroom door were locked at that time and as they didn't witness anything they didn't pose a threat meaning the 4 were the targets . Maybe one was the intended target and the 3 others were killed either because they were potential witnesses or there was a secret grudge on these students from an on line follower/stalker or by someone they knew. Being slained in this way is just pure evil . Society itself has a sickness that roams within its realms, hope the person/person's are called caught . Condolences to the families and friends 🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️

This is horrendous quality for a 'news' group..

heartbreaking x

This is oh so sad 🙏🏾😞 💔

Wow I sure hope they get the perpetrator (s) off the street fast! MY prayers and condolences definitely go out to the victims and their families! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥺

How horrendous for someone to find these kids

I am thankful for this Coroner speaking out here and with other media. Even if what she says is hard to hear. Glad to see her honesty and giving details of the autopsy. People need to know this reality.

My heart just breaks for these families I’ll never understand this sort of stuff how does one person kill four people with a knife I don’t get it they all took a photo together hours before and they all seemed happy and normal I can’t wrap my head around this I have a son in college and you have to be so careful who you hang around with please someone help me understand this

If it was a stabbing it would take a very angry person do such a crime.

Words aren't matching up with her body language.

My Granddaughter is in Colorado going to college. I hope they get this person very soon.

Why is this sh*t so quiet?

“It was very bloody.” - said the coroner “They must be unconscious” - said at least one person at the crime scene

I don’t know what it is but this woman is giving nervous alcoholic. I am not confident in her ability and I don’t think she is either.

I’m a Trauma RN…this is a super unprofessional coroner/RN/lawyer. Scary

A year later and we are still looking for answers and clues.And after a year later i still have no idea who did this Crime.Its crazy stuff in this case

How do you control a situation of 4 adults while you stab each to death one by one? Maybe multiple attackers?

Breaking news apparently one of the ladies was text messaging somebody by the name of jack and that would have been the two ladies that were at the food cart and one of the sisters have come forward and said that her sister was text messaging this guy by the name of jack several times well that guy at the food cart he gives me the creeps

Bless you Lady. Must be awful.

Very sad 🙏🙏

Why would she say they were all sleeping and didn’t suffer when clearly they did?!

Geez if your gonna do a news briefing;,.. Do It.

One person couldn't have done all four without screaming and trying to get away from the one culprit.

How was ONE person able to overtake & kill four young, healthy students? 😕

How is it the public is not in danger 🤔 😳 it's a very small place and they haven't caught anyone!so scary 😳

This woman is so unqualified for this job. A nurse turned attorney. She has no clue what she is doing. This case has so many holes in it.

jesus christ pray for these kids ❤️❤️

OMG 😭

If so much blood then why isn’t there a trail outside in the white snow??? Or was it an inside job??

She’s a nurse not a doctor!!!

Honest question here, if trying to determine as close as possible the time of death, why would coroner wait over 4hrs1/ 2hrs 2 visit scene 2 view bodies?

Why even interview these ppl? They never know anything and never provide any new information....

This interview is inappropriate and could jeopardize the case if there will be one. This information should be released to the public by the police dept, not the coroner. She should have not agreed to this.

Such an awkward interview

SO BASICALLY SHE KNOWS ZERO EVEN THOUGH SHE EXAMINED THE BODIES...WELL...WE KNOW WHAT WE ARE DEALING WITH AT LEAST AS FAR AS KNOWLEDGE GOES..." NOT GOOD"

That coroner knew so much she wasn't allowed to say

Does anyone know if it was the cororner that described one of the victims being nearly decapitated? Or was that from some other source?

How the hell did someone stab 4 grown people alone, even if it did happen in the middle of the night? Had to be more than one attacker, right????

This will be a huge case.

PURE SADNESS ALWAYS AROUND OR ON HOLIDAYS ☹️☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💔💔💔💔💔💔

AUDIO..POOR!! Prayers For All..🙏

My grandson knew the 2 from Lake City high school 😢3 were from kootenia county

How can 4 ppl NOT somehow get out of a situation like that..this is really strange ,,,I understand they can't say anything YET ,,,but NO ONE HEARD anything and or one of them escaped..then this just means there is a killer out running around..or killers..stabbed them to death ..someone was covered in blood..this is horrible,,I have so many questions.

God bless the Coronor and all who are helping in the senseless evil tragedy 🙏😢💔🙌😔😞🙏😢💔🙌😔😞🙏

wow she really didnt say to much did she ,...no time frame and nothing about location or saying manner of death,.... just multiple crime scene and she even wavered on describing , " lots of blood"

She doesn't strike me as a coroner. Feels like a substitute teacher who forgot to take her xanax this morning.

This woman is totally unqualified!!!!!

Not appropriate to ask about the scene.

Why do a press conference if you cant tell us anything?

Wow!!! What a job that would be as a Coroner.

Cathy's non disclosure has certainly provided me with more to consider when it comes to potential trauma and scene characteristics. She's obviously been traumatized by what she's seen. 😢

Why didn't Jack D call the Goncalves family when he heard of Kaylee's passing? Hmmmmm......i wonder. He sure went and got the dog. Je knew where his dog was the whole night i am sure.

Two homicides covered in 16 yrs of being a coroner. She is clueless! First time on TV! Claiming issues are not relevant is unprofessional. Stating things that were clearly untrue about them being asleep and in their beds. Stating that she wasn't able to speak about obvious questions of interest is suspicious of reporters asking them. Not identifying the wounds properly.

People should know there was weird activity with animal killing in the area within the past month, expanding from dead wolves being left at sororities and frats to someone’s mini Aussie being skinned and filleted. I also feel it’s worth noting that Moscow ID is a tiny town, people typically leave their doors unlocked and trust each other. People return wallets. You run into the same folks three times a day sometimes. This is not normal.

Medical Examiner and Coroners are 2 separate entities. Coroners are elected laypersons, who do not have to be physicians, nor possess any medical training. Medical Examiners are physicians. They possess specific training in forensics (usually forensic pathology). The ME does all of the death investigation; performs the autopsies; conducts and interprets the labs and performs expert testimony in court. Coroners inquire as to the cause of death; the manner of death; and sometimes complete the death certificate. Theirs is a more political and/or government procedural role. The Coroner should always consult with the ME, whom is the scientific authority. As to the Idaho case: Cathy Mabbutt formerly practiced as an RN. She then attended law school, completing her degree over 20 years ago, having political aspirations.

I've never heard of a coroner who is also a defense lawyer. How can that not be a conflict of interest?

She lied. She just doesn't want to go there.

They are interviewing her for no reason, can't get any more information on an active case.
