They announced that they were going to do this months ago. What else could they have done?

FOX News reports:

Idaho student murders house demolished year after quadruple stabbingThe University of Idaho on Thursday executed plans to demolish a house near the school’s Moscow campus where four students were murdered in November 2022.Demolition work began in the pre-dawn darkness Thursday as crews used an excavator to rip apart the front of the house at 1122 King Road shortly before 7 a.m. Debris was dumped into trucks and hauled away from the property as construction workers, police officers and university officials watched the scene unfold.Within two hours, the home had been leveled. By the end of the afternoon, the lot was reduced to a patch of dirt with a fence around it. A memorial with photos, flowers, candles and teddy bears still sits on a rock wall at the front of the property.The home, just steps from the university campus, became an extensive crime scene last year, when quadruple murder suspect Bryan Kohberger allegedly stabbed roommates Kaylee Goncalves, 21; Madison Mogen, 21; and Xana Kernodle, 20; as well as Kernodle’s 20-year-old boyfriend, Ethan Chapin, in their respective bedrooms.”It is the grim reminder of the heinous act that took place there,” University President Scott Green said in a statement. “While we appreciate the emotional connection some family members of the victims may have to this house, it is time for its removal and to allow the collective healing of our community to continue.”The university announced on Dec. 21 that it would be going through with demolition plans during winter break after the house was given to the university last spring. The demolition process could take several days, the school said.
