The wait is over! The update is finally here! Eli and Mel dive straight into the deep end as they revisit one of the first cases the DUSE covered way back in 2022: the quadruple murder of four college students in Moscow, Idaho. Sure, Eli’s theory about a local cult having a hand in the brutal slayings was wrong — very wrong — but the truth is even harder to believe. From the bizarre story of the surviving roommates to the bungling of the investigation at every level, including the FBI, there’s just nothing satisfying about this case. Bryan Kohberger took a plea deal to avoid the death penalty, and maybe he really did do it, but if you’re looking for conclusive evidence you’re better off watching an episode of Law & Order in… Idaho!
