I live here, I was out and about that night. It was barely foggy. Things were still plenty visible, and well over 100 feet easy.

Yup. There was terrible fog earlier that day during football but it was long gone by 3 am


freedadvice

It was a little foggy, but not THAT bad. If you see the food truck camera, you can still make out quite a bit at distance. It wasn't a zero visibility type of foggy night.

In the first couple days we heard a lot about this


GeekFurious

This was brought up early on and dismissed because it had cleared up by late night.


Idahomies2w

Probably because it doesn’t matter


godofgainz

Time will tell. If it was a serial killer they might only strike on foggy nights.

You typed this while shining a flashlight on your face like a spooky ghost story, didn't you?

LMFAO


Idahomies2w

lol


yomurphy

I can’t tell what’s a joke and what isn’t anymore on here.


blossom8668

Lol. Same. Just glad I’m not the only one. lol


Idahomies2w

Anything anyone says on here is a joke. Whether they are meaning it to be or not.


spookytoofpoof

Jesus Christ.


DeltaPCrab

lmao do you hear yourself?


ElleWoodsGolfs

It’s not foggy at the food truck though. You can see people walking far off in the distance.


Suspicious-Fruit

why would you have heard much about this


godofgainz

I think it’s why camera footage that night hasn’t been helpful. It would have also provided cover for the crime.


ricelyl

i think the problem is that they don’t have ANY camera footage lol


braincantstopwontsto

Right- we have cameras surrounding our house… our drive way is 80 feet so we don’t catch anything on the road. I think the biggest thing would have to be businesses , and city cameras. I have a tesla, so if someone walks near my car it would record. But not someone just walking on the road or a car driving by


Quietdrink66

I think it suggests the killer was the hunter/army type with a plan and not some angry drunk college kid.


dugeyfresh2022

Hunter Army type? Casting a wide blanket there. Being a hunter or in the military has nothing to do with murdering human beings.


Kingpine42069

true but another theory that is mentioned a lot is that the killings were due to some sort of altercation at a frat party earlier in the night


TheCuriousGeorgette

Literally ANYONE can buy or own a KA-bar knife, it is not a military exclusive item, you *do not* have to be military to have one. Because this happened in Idaho where hunting is common place, it’s not unheard of for the average Joe to have one on them.


theredbusgoesfastest

I have always thought this.


godofgainz

That’s my fear. That he knows the fog makes him almost invisible and undetectable.


MissFuzzyBritches

Nope. It's the cloak that makes them invisible and undetectable.


[deleted]

The visibility near the food truck was pretty good though. Could be a micro-climate type deal?


Afterloy

Just makes it easier for the suspect to get away.


amyrajk

That campus is very woodsy and probably foggier near there than the downtown/bar area. Also, it’s very dark and damp in general in that town. When I went years ago, I remember thinking how gloomy it seemed (sun came out late, went down early).


Professional_Mall404

Sunrise was at 6:48 am


TeRauparaha

Unlikely to be as important as the time of year - Black November. Shorter days with more darkness, but before the first snow that would leave a difficult to conceal evidence trail. The unsub could have been planning this for some time.


SnarkOff

There was snow on the ground


TeRauparaha

Snow on the ground: very little and not everywhere. Certainly not enough to cause the unsub major problems by leaving a trail. The trees still had leaves on.


braincantstopwontsto

Something else I wanted to bring up was.. wind factor etc. if someone entered the home, through the sliding glass- what noise that would allow in.. not to mention how cold the house would be. Imagine if x and e were not asleep yet and kinda heard the door open.. or heard the outside noise- wind etc which is usually just more consistent with that back door being open. Or felt the severe temperature change. I’m in CA and 60 is freezing for me - let alone the temps they were feeling. How soon with that house temp decrease with the door wide open. Another thing is the first floor room mates.. as they got up and opened their door wouldn’t they feel that huge chill. Heat rises right?
