The two women killed, Ms Goncalves and Ms Mogen, had been at a bar in downtown Moscow and were captured on video surveillance at a local food truck before they got a ride home. The other two victims, Ms Kernodle and her boyfriend, Mr Chapin, had arrived at the home shortly before after visiting a fraternity house on the university campus.
