Murder In Moscow: The Unexplained Gap In The Timeline Of The Murders

Early in the investigation into the murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, Moscow police were still trying to account for a significant gap in the victims’ movements on the night of November 12 and early morning of November 13, 2022. Investigators had established a relatively clear timeline for Goncalves and Mogen, who had spent part of the night at a downtown bar before stopping at a food truck and returning to the King Road house. The movements of Kernodle and Chapin were far less certain. Police knew the couple had attended a party at the Sigma Chi fraternity house, but there was an approximately four-hour stretch between when they were believed to have arrived there and when they returned home that investigators were still working to reconstruct. Authorities appealed to the public for photographs, videos, witness accounts or other information that could help determine exactly where Kernodle and Chapin had been and whom they had encountered during those missing hours.


At that stage, the unexplained period was one of several major holes investigators were attempting to fill as they built a minute-by-minute picture of the victims’ final night. Police had not publicly identified a suspect, the murder weapon had not been recovered, and investigators were still collecting surveillance footage, digital evidence and tips from people who had been in the area. The four-hour gap did not mean police believed Kernodle or Chapin had necessarily encountered the killer during that period; rather, investigators were trying to eliminate uncertainty and determine whether anything that happened earlier in the evening could have been connected to what occurred later at the King Road residence. The unanswered timeline became another example of how incomplete the public picture remained during the first weeks of the investigation, when authorities were still assembling basic facts that would later be viewed very differently once Bryan Kohberger was arrested and the probable-cause evidence became public.
