For the families of the four victims, the Idaho University murder investigation has been difficult and upsetting, but it has also had an impact on the ex-boyfriend of one of the victims, whose life has been turned upside down by suspicion.
According to his aunt Brooke Miller, who talked to the NY Post, Jack DuCoeur dated Kaylee Goncalves for five years and referred to her as the love of his life at that time. Miller thinks that even if Kaylee and Jack had split up, they still would have gotten married.
Three weeks before the murders, Kaylee broke up with DuCoeur. Although Miller admits her nephew was upset about the breakup, she claims the parting was amicable.
Police were aware of DuCoeur soon after the killings, particularly as a result of the ten calls that Goncalves and Madison Mogen made to him in the hours before the crimes.
DuCoeur was cleared after a police investigation, but the suspicion remained. According to Miller, “half of America” believes that her nephew might be to blame.
DuCoeur has received harsh treatment online, with others accusing him of being the culprit.
DuCoeur has received sympathy from Goncalves’ family, who claim he had nothing to do with her passing. “We all know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that there’s no way that Jack would ever do anything like that to anybody.”
After six weeks, the murders are still a mystery, at least to the general public.
