Idaho murders: Kaylee Goncalves' Range Rover retrieved from city lot

A man picked up slain University of Idaho student Kaylee Goncalves' silver Ranger Rover from Moscow, Idaho, police on Thursday, nearly six weeks after her murder.

EXCLUSIVE: A family lawyer retrieved Idaho murder victim Kaylee Goncalves' Range Rover on Thursday afternoon from a Moscow city storage lot.

Attorney Shanon Gray helped a pair of Moscow police officers scrape ice from the windshield and brush away snow on the 2016 Range Rover Evoque that Goncalves excitedly purchased days before her slaying. 

At around 3 p.m., Gray drove off in the silver SUV nearly six weeks after Goncalves was killed in a rental home near the University of Idaho campus.

Kaylee Goncalves, her best friend Madison "Maddie" Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were stabbed to death inside the King Road house between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. on Nov. 13.

The Range Rover was one of five cars towed from the property about three weeks ago.

"She just bought a brand-new vehicle for herself, her first vehicle," Kaylee's mother Kristi Goncalves told Fox News' Lawrence Jones last month. "She went home Friday to literally go show off her new vehicle. She was like, ‘Maddie has to see my new ride. Like, she has to see this.’ And she was talking to Maddie the whole time going back and forth between the car she was buying."

The luxury car symbolized the promising future that had awaited Kaylee, who was set to graduate in December, embark on a backpacking trip across Europe in January and start a well-paid marketing job in Austin, Texas, in February.

"She was a hard worker, always having a full time job on top of her studies even in high school," according to her obituary. "Kaylee loved the nicer things in life and took a lot of pride in buying those things for herself." 

Kernodle's blue Honda was picked up from the city lot on Wednesday.

Police have not identified a suspect or recovered the large fixed-blade knife they believe was used in the horrific attack that has left the small college town reeling from grief.

The coroner said the victims were likely ambushed as they slept and each was stabbed multiple times. 

Investigators are asking the public for tips to help track down a white 2011 to 2013 Hyundai that was seen near the crime scene in the early morning hours of Nov. 13.

Anyone with information about the crime is urged to call Moscow police at 208-883-7054 or email tipline@ci.moscow.id.us.
