Hey, good morning.

We're talking about losing my hour of light.

Yeah. So I think partly the background here is that there is a relatively new judge on the case who is acting a lot more expeditiously on everything and has a much different approach to sealing. Some judges are very lenient with sealing. Some judges really don't like it. Given that these two surviving roommates are likely going to be called to testify at trial—

I'm sure the judge's position is all of this is going to come out pretty soon anyway. So there's really not the same urgency in keeping it secret. What are the big new things that we've learned from these motions being unsealed?

The biggest revelations are the transcript of the 911 call and the text messages that are being sent between the two surviving roommates around four in the morning of the night that the students were killed. And all of that we had never seen before.

It's also clear they're not quite sure what they saw. You know, by all accounts, this was a party house, right? There's a lot of people coming in and out. And so I don't think it was that unusual for them to probably see someone that they didn't know in the house. But they were scared enough that it appears from their text messages that they hunker down together in the bedroom.

Because you can see one saying the other, come here, run. And then you don't see them say anything until the next morning around 10.30. They start texting their deceased roommates, not knowing, of course, that they had been killed, saying, please answer. And then they finally call 911.

Yeah. So we knew they called 911, obviously, and we knew when they called, but we hadn't seen... And what becomes clear is at least one or possibly two other individuals and friends come over to the house. They go look and they find Zanna Kernodle's body and they say to the 911 operator, something has happened in our house.

We don't know what, but you have to come over here because something has happened. And they say she's not waking up. And you think, like, gosh, they've been stabbed. What a horrific scene they must have seen there. But it's interesting. They don't say that on the 911 tape. And it's just, is it the shock? Was it too overwhelming? Could they not tell right away? It's unclear what's going on there.

But they don't mention any blood on the 911 call either. which I thought was curious, but again, it's hard to know. Is it they're so overwhelmed in the moment or they didn't see?

The judge has not yet resolved that motion, so it's going to be interesting to see how he handles it. But given his posture on the other death penalty motions, I think it's going to be an uphill battle for the defense team, also because the state of Idaho does not use death
