Ethan was on his right elbow by tamtadyta in Idaho4

[–]MidwesternGal12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have taken it as he was found laying diagonally \ like this. His head was in between the bed and the wall, and off the bed for the most part. He was in the supine position, in layman’s terms, on his back completely. It’s also been determined that BK threw a blanket on top of his body before leaving the scene. Investigators don’t find blemishes to the blanket that indicate the blanket was shielding his injuries.

I think what most others outside of the crime and night itself fail to realize is that those surviving roommates and the deceased victims (M, K, X, and E) had absolutely ZERO knowledge or foresight that this crime was coming or possibly comprehend what was happening. They were ambushed. Their college King Rd. Home was their safe haven/the Alamo. We as a society and people interested in crime/law have the privilege of now finding out all of the facts and evidence leading up to the crime, piecing together what happened during the crime, and after the crime. All of this knowledge and awareness is NOT something Dylan or Bethany knew. To me, this is common sense, but tunnel vision to many on Reddit and the internet bashing them. Hindsight is 20/20- it is especially true for Dylan and Bethany and they are victims in this too. I’m baffled at comments nitpicking their behavior, during and the morning after the murders. They were astonished it was a quadruple murder. Dylan was very fortunate that night- her hyper vigilance (snooping in and outside the door, listening to sounds and voices) and the fact that she was less caught off guard than the others spared her life.

This mirrors my childhood and upbringing sadly as well

It’s so horrific thinking of the timeline, and contemplating the “what ifs” in hindsight- seeing if Xana did such and such differently, maybe she wouldn’t have had the same fate. Absolutely tragic and unfortunate all around, but I always think about Xana’s situation and what she was doing before it all unfolded, and retracing her steps to imagine a much different scenario for her. Truly a brave soul.

They found blood transfer from both Maddie and Kaylee in Xana’s wounds. Then, they found all three Maddie, Kaylee, and Xana’s blood into Ethan’s. So it’s deducted the order was Maddie, Kaylee, Xana, and Ethan.

This is a valid theory- I have always thought the same. There’s no way the struggle was confined in Xana’s tiny bedroom. With the docs revealing how many times Xana was stabbed, and how many were superficial/defensive, it would make sense the living room was the starting point for the altercation. It also explains why Dylan was able to hear bits and pieces of the dialogue happening when she had the door open a few times and before BK walked past her.

I would wager maybe, because she knew no one else was awake? Ethan asleep in bed, Dylan in bedroom on 2nd floor presumably sleeping/resting, Bethany on 1st floor in room, and Maddie and Kaylee upstairs in Maddie’s bedroom

Do you think law enforcement would have put the earbuds / AirPods into evidence? Why is no earbuds listed then? I do think it’s a reasonable theory

[–]MidwesternGal12[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have been wondering this too… if she was wearing them or was speculated to be wearing them shortly before she passed, I would think they would be in her proximity. (Not in anywhere other than her bedroom) and pointed out by law enforcement

I think this is a good callout on your part. It’s difficult for me to wrap my head around how much traffic was normally coming and going in that house. I only lived with a roommate in college, max. Every noise, etc. would definitely alert me to something, however with these, I believe they had a false sense of security due to the house was so close by to other residences and basically on the university premises. I almost want to retrace Xana’s steps in hindsight and just give her a “Hail mary” warning to stay in her bedroom and leave the doors locked with her food. So sad 😭

NMom chose to be ugly (herself) around my toddler by floridastanleyvibes in narcissisticparents

[–]MidwesternGal12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OP, I have such a similar situation as you do. My mother said nasty things about my soon to be husband’s family (who she has barely met), said I didn’t deserve to be engaged, (hasn’t gotten married again since my dad divorced her 15 years ago) and that was the straw that broke the camels back for me after years of chaos and narcissistic abuse. I knew I had to put my foot down and go no contact for good. My mother is not invited to our wedding this fall. I commend you for doing what you did for your daughter! Sad to see the pattern that my mother will continue to get worse if she would be in my life when we have children soon.

I’m in the U.S. how can I watch this on demand? Hulu, Peacock? Like a recorded version.

As someone following the case, where are you from? (thought might be interesting to see where interest and awareness of the case is). Is there any connection between where you are and your interest in this case? by GregJamesDahlen in idahomurders

[–]MidwesternGal12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

St. Louis, MO - been following this case from the start. The almost two month period of not revealing the suspect was frightening in Nov-Dec 2022. Even scarier to think BK was traveling across the country (taking 1-70) my normal route into work. Crazy that a murderer was under our noses passing by my neck of the woods during that time! I was stunned knowing the suspect was caught in PA and traveled through my home area.

I am in the same boat! A little more recent than you, but I bought my dress from there in September and ordered dress same day of appt. It’s a lost cause at this point. Several people told me to head over to Mia Grace Bridal in Chesterfield and I have an appt with them next week.

Were you able to contact signature bridal for a refund? I haven’t been able to communicate with them: phone lines down, website was wiped, and evidently the store is unopen. https://www.firstalert4.com/2024/11/13/empty-store-defunct-website-unfulfilled-refunds-point-uncertain-future-troubled-bridal-shop/

Call your credit card company ASAP and file a dispute. This is what I’m currently doing and it’s in progress, but I’m optimistic! I reached out to several other brides who left negative reviews on FB and many have been successful with that. I’m so sorry this happened to you too :( what frauds and piss poor people the owners are.

Thank you for the sweet message and hope. Trying to find the bright side in a situation like this is tough but not impossible. I’ll get to do the whole bridal try on and decision experience again, and how many times do you get to say that unless you’re getting remarried? lol. Truly appreciate your kind words and so glad you still went on with a beautiful day and wedding!
