Dylan Mortensen & Bethany Funke
Dylan and Bethany were two students who believed that Saturday night would be just like any other weekend evening. Their house was always busy—a lively place known for its parties. Despite what they heard and saw, neither girl ever imagined they would become survivng victims and witnesses to the horrific murders of their four housemates.
That night, the girls stayed up for a while before drifting off to sleep. When they awoke, the house, usually bustling with activity, was eerily quiet—an unusual silence for a home with six residents, of whom one the sweet litlle Kaylee's & Jack's pet dog Murthy . Confused and alarmed, they panicked. They were scared and reached out to friends for help—something not uncommon for students in their early twenties.
In rural Moscow, Idaho, murders were rare—let alone a quadruple homicide of innocent students. Is it so difficult to understand the trauma these two young women experienced? Even if they weren’t fully aware of what had happened in the early hours of November 13, 2022, the reality and trauma struck them hard when Hunter told them to get out of the house and call 911.
Please, stop blaming these two innocent girls, who are now also victims of this brutal, sadistic, and vile crime committed by a monster.
