Newly released body cam footage shows slain University of Idaho student Kaylee Goncalves speaking to police three months before she and three friends were brutally murdered.
Moscow police responded to the off-campus house that Goncalves and his friends were renting on Aug. 16, after neighbors complained about noise coming from an apparent party at the house.
Goncalves, 21, was polite and respectful when an officer let her go with a warning.
But on November 13, police came to the house once more to find her, Maddie Mogen, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, and Ethan Chapin, 20, all stabbed to death.
Bryan Kohberger, 28, is now being held without bail in connection with the quadruple homicide. Officers say his knife sheath was found at the scene.
Murdered University of Idaho student Kaylee was caught on police body camera in August when Moscow police responded to a noise complaint call at her off-campus home.
The video, released on Wednesday by the Law and Crime Network, documents a visit by Moscow police to the King Road home in August.
Goncalves could be seen exiting through a sliding glass door in a tan strapless dress as she greeted officers on the scene, saying, “Hey guys.”
A police officer then asks him if he knows why they were called to the house, to which Goncalves replied, “I guess there’s noise.”
The police officer then confirmed that the Moscow Police Department did, in fact, receive a call about the excessive noise coming from the house, noting that there was a “big speaker right there.”
He went on to say that he had ‘nothing against having a party [but] once the neighbors start calling, then we have a problem.’
“Fair enough,” answered Gonçalves.
At that point, the policeman told Goncalves that he would “give you a verbal warning”, reminding him: “Once I have neighbors calling, you are disturbing the peace.”
“There’s nothing against having parties, having people of drinking age, but once we start disturbing the neighbors, we have a problem,” he said.
He went on to point out that noise fines could cost anywhere from $300 to $400 for the first offense.
Goncalves could be seen in the video leaving the house through a sliding glass door. It’s unclear if that’s the same door that cops say suspect Bryan Kohberger fled through.
Goncalves, 21, was polite and respectful when the officers let her go with a warning for a noise complaint.
“I don’t want to give you that,” the policeman told Goncalves. ‘That being said, this is your place, I will hold you accountable.
“Because it is your place, you are also responsible for everyone here,” he added. ‘So I’m going to get your information and if I have to come back here, you’ll be fined $300 and something.
“I’d rather you spend that $300 on beer or something fun instead of a noise ticket.”
‘That being said, warnings, don’t do it again. I would hate to come back in a few hours and have to broadcast that,’ the officer continued before asking if Goncalves had any questions, to which she replied no.
“Thank you, have a good rest of your day,” the policeman told him, prompting Goncalves to reply: “Thank you, you too.”
Goncalves was found stabbed to death on November 13, along with her roommates Maddie Mogen, 21, top left, Xana Kernodle, 20, and her boyfriend Ethan Chapin, 20.
Moscow police appear at the scene of the King Road house after the massacre.
Goncalves was found dead on November 13 on the top floor of her King Road home in the same bed with her best friend Maddie Mogen. Both were stabbed to death.
Bryan Kohberger, 28, has been charged with the quadruple homicide
Downstairs, her friends Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were also stabbed.
Authorities have since revealed that next to the bodies of Goncalves and Mogen was a knife sheath.
Police were able to match the DNA found on the snap button closure to a sample taken from Kohberger’s family home in Pennsylvania.
They had already been targeting Kohberger after discovering his white Hyundai Elantra was nearby the night of the quadruple homicide.
And they learned that Kohberger had apparently been stalking the victims when his phone was polled nearby at least 12 times before the night of November 13.
Officers now believe he escaped through a sliding glass door in the home, possibly the same one once Goncalves was seen leaving, before returning to Washington, where he attended school.
Kohberger, a criminology student, has since been charged with four counts of murder and one count of robbery. He is being held without bail.
Kohberger is shown smiling as a judge listed the charges against him at a bond hearing earlier this month.
Since then, acquaintances have come forward detailing Kohberger’s bizarre behavior after the quadruple homicide.
Following the revelations, acquaintances have come forward detailing Kohberger’s strange behavior.
A neighbor, Arun Dash, who lived in the same apartment complex as Kohberger in Pullman, Washington, described him as “chatty” in the days after the murders, but added that there was “never anything suspicious” about him.
script said Well-informed person that Kohberger had always been friendly and often tried to make plans, even though their schedules did not match.
‘He asked me what I was studying, where I am from. He would just make friendly small talk.
Another colleague described Kohberger similarly, saying, “He talked to everyone, he was a very talkative person, not charming, but outgoing.”
Kohberger, who worked as a teaching assistant at Washington State University’s Pullman campus while studying for his doctorate in criminology, also “stopped caring” after the killings, a student of his says.
“He wasn’t much of a TA,” criminology student Emilie, who asked to go by her first name only, told Insider.
She said Kohberger had been a difficult teacher before the Nov. 13 massacre and seemed to lose interest in teaching after it.
Police searched Kohberger’s apartment in Pullman, Washington, for evidence about the ongoing investigation, however a judge recently sealed the warrant until March 1.
An Idaho judge has now sealed a search warrant for Kohberger’s Washington apartment because it risks causing a premature end to the investigation.
The search warrant documents, filed the same day as his arrest, state that “compelling circumstances warrant the temporary sealing ordered in this matter.” The information will remain secret until March 1.
The language used in the court document has left some questioning about what the ‘threat to public safety’ might be and the ‘threat to the privacy of witnesses, victims and the names of the families of the victims in the affidavit’ .
The documents were filed before Kohberger’s identity was widely reported.
The court documents emerged following a gag order issued by the Moscow Police Department last week.
Latah County Magistrate Judge Megan Marshall issued a nondisclosure order on January 3 regarding the murder case against Kohberger.
“The order prohibits any communication by investigators, law enforcement personnel, attorneys, and the prosecutor’s or defense attorney’s agents regarding this case,” police said in a statement.
“Due to this court order, the Moscow Police Department will no longer communicate with the public or the media regarding this case.”
