A new surveillance video appears to show two University of Idaho students in the hours before they were killed.
Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Kernodle's boyfriend Ethan Chapin were found dead in an off-campus rental house in Moscow on November 13. More than a month on, mystery still surrounds the killings with police still yet to identify a suspect or make an arrest.
As the tiny college town remains on edge, the case has fueled an army of online sleuths who have taken to discussing the case's details on forums including Facebook and Reddit.
A newly released surveillance video that purports to show best friends Goncalves and Mogen walking with a man in downtown Moscow in the early hours of November 13 was provided to Fox News Digital by Kristine Cameron and Alina Smith, the creators and administrators of the "University of Idaho Murders - Case Discussion" Facebook group.
Cameron and Smith told the outlet that the video was provided to them by a Moscow resident who has previously sent it to police and believes making it public could provide greater context about the incident.
According to the outlet, which only published stills and audio for the video to protect the source's privacy, the footage shows a woman asking: "Maddie, what did you say to Adam?"
Her voice appears to match Goncalves's, according to Fox News Digital.
"Like, I told Adam everything," the other woman replied. The identity of the person in question is not known and there are currently no suggestions they were linked to the killings.
Investigators have said Goncalves and Mogen had gone to a local bar, stopped at a food truck and then caught a ride home with a private party around 1:56 a.m. on November 13.
The new video shows the women apparently wearing the same clothes that Goncalves and Mogen were seen wearing outside the food truck that night.
The man walking with them in the clip is also wearing similar clothes to a man who seen at the front truck.
Police have said the man seen at the food truck and the driver who took Goncalves and Mogen home are not believed to be involved in the crime.
Cameron and Smith said the new video shows the man had been with Goncalves and Mogen before being seen in the food truck video.
"People are drawing the conclusion that he's creepy from that [few] minutes, and I want to give a bigger picture," Cameron said. "He wasn't just staring at them...He was with them prior."
The ongoing mystery surrounding the case has led many to post speculation and rumors about some individuals, prompting police to warn earlier this month that it could lead to them being charged with harassment.
Newsweek has contacted Moscow Police for comment.
