University of Idaho students’ slayings unrelated to skinned dog

A skinned pet dog found dead last month and the grisly murders of four University of Idaho students are not connected, local authorities clarified Monday.

Detectives are aware of a Latah County Sheriff s Office incident of the report of a skinned dog and have determined it is unrelated to this incident, the city of Moscow Police Department said in a press release.

The police department s statement comes after news reports about the 12-year-old mini Australian shepherd death in the community on Oct. 21 that led locals to wonder if it was tied to the quadruple homicide.
