All 4 of them have Instagram. In fact Kaylee just posted pics yesterday& in one of the pics all four of the deceased are together. It appears Ethan& Xana were also a couple. The background appears to be possibly the house they were found in? But did they all live there I’m not sure.

Can you please link?
 

Statement from the university:

With tremendous sadness, I share with you the names of four members of the Vandal Family who died over the weekend: Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves. These four students were killed in an alleged homicide that took place off-campus and is under active investigation by the Moscow Police Department.

Ethan, a freshman from Mount Vernon, Washington, was a member of Sigma Chi fraternity majoring in recreation, sport and tourism management in the College of Education, Health and Human Sciences.

Xana was a junior from Post Falls majoring in marketing in the College of Business and Economics. She was a member of Pi Beta Phi sorority.

Madison was a senior majoring in marketing in the College of Business and Economics. She was a member of the Pi Beta Phi sorority and was from Coeur d’Alene.

Kaylee, from Rathdrum, was a senior majoring in general studies in the College of Letters, Arts and Social Sciences. She was a member of the Alpha Phi sorority.
 

Four University of Idaho students are seen smiling in photograph HOURS before they were killed in off-campus housing - as police investigate their deaths as a homicide and all classes are canceled​

 
The local news here is reporting xana from Avondale AZ, I think that is an error.
They all look like happy normal college kids in their photos so truly sad. I read it is being investigated as a homicide so there is some evidence we will hear soon. just tragic.
 
What are the highlights of the article? The article is behind a paywall.
Nothing in there specifically indicates why it's being considered a "crime of passion," unfortunately--lots of the same info that we've seen in other media outlets. Excerpt below, though:

"Art Bettge, the mayor of Moscow, Idaho, said in an interview that the authorities were still investigating what had transpired but that the case was being treated as a homicide. He said the authorities did not believe that there was a “perceivable danger to the broader public,” but declined to say how the victims were killed or whether a suspect was at large.

“With a crime of this magnitude, it’s very difficult to work through,” Mr. Bettge said, adding that the police needed time to piece together what had transpired.

The authorities said they responded to a call about an “unconscious individual” on Sunday and discovered four dead people at a house near the University of Idaho campus. On Monday, they identified the victims as Ethan Chapin, 20, of Conway, Wash.; Madison Mogen, 21, of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho; Xana Kernodle, 20, of Avondale, Ariz.; and Kaylee GonCalves, 21, of Rathdrum, Idaho."
