The Idaho 4 case shocked the entire nation.
Four young college students — brutally murdered inside their off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho — a quiet college town that had never seen such horror.
And now… newly discussed details from Sgt. Gunderson’s body cam footage reveal just how disturbing that scene truly was.
When police first arrived, the house appeared still, almost too quiet.
But as Sgt. Gunderson approached the sliding door, the silence broke.
He noticed something on the wall — a dark stain running down the outside near Xana’s room.
At first, it looked like old paint or rust.
But when the flashlight hit it just right… it was unmistakable. Blood.
There was blood smeared on the siding, as if someone had tried to wipe or drag something — maybe even someone — across it.
The snow outside told its own story too.
Footprints. Not many, but enough to suggest movement around the back of the house, leading toward the tree line.
It had snowed overnight, meaning the prints were fresh — made after the killings.
Inside, the horror deepened.
Officers found dried blood inside the bathroom sink — not splattered droplets like from a cut, but thick, congealed smears.
Something — or someone — had clearly been washed there.
The air inside was heavy, silent except for the creak of floorboards under boots and the faint hum of police radios.
Every corner told a story of panic — spilled drinks, broken glass, cell phones scattered across the floor.
It wasn’t just a crime scene… it was a moment frozen in terror.
As investigators pieced it together, they realized this wasn’t a random act — it was deliberate, methodical, and deeply personal.
And the details in Gunderson’s footage — the blood on Xana’s wall, the sink stains, and the footprints in the snow — became haunting pieces of evidence in one of the darkest murder investigations in modern college history.
Even months later, those who’ve seen the footage describe it as chilling — the kind of imagery you can’t unsee.
The Idaho 4 murders remain a story of tragedy, obsession, and justice — and that night, Sgt. Gunderson’s body cam captured the earliest glimpse of the horror the world would soon learn about.
