The case prompted fear and anxiety in the community and [student body](https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/28/us/idaho-university-stabbing-monday/index.html), and questions mounted about the pace of the police investigation. Moscow police say they have worked with a property management services company to remove “potential biohazards and other harmful substances used to collect evidence,” the update said. Some of the victims had defensive wounds, a coroner has said. “In particular, this study seeks to understand the story behind your most recent criminal offense, with an emphasis on your thoughts and feelings throughout your experience,” the post said. “I knew that they would, but it’s just taking so long, and I’m so happy for their families and everybody that’s been worried that all the students, everybody that may not have come back to school,” she said. “We also want to extend our deepest sympathies to the families, friends, and Vandal colleagues who were impacted by these murders,” Chilton said. While he was being watched, investigators from the Moscow Police Department, the Idaho State Police homicide bureau, and the FBI worked with prosecutors to develop sufficient probable cause to obtain the warrant. Moscow Police Department Chief James Fry said at the news conference an Elantra has been located, but investigators are still looking for the knife used in the killings. “Sometime right before Christmas we were zeroing in on him being in or going to Pennsylvania,” the source told CNN. Once potential family matches were found, subsequent investigative work by law enforcement led to the identification of Kohberger, according to the source. Genetic genealogy helped investigators identify the suspect, a source with knowledge of the case said. Kohberger’s DNA has also been matched to genetic material recovered at the off-campus house where the students were stabbed to death, according to the sources.
