Bill to offset U of I costs from student murders passes House

North Idaho lawmakers opposed legislation to help cover costs of security, police, student counseling and more

COEUR d’ALENE — A bill that would provide the University of Idaho with $1 million to help offset some of the costs resulting from the murder of four college students last November was passed Thursday by the Idaho House of Representatives and is headed for a Senate vote. House Bill 222 passed the House by a vote of 56-14 and was opposed by North Idaho House members. It provides funds to partially reimburse the university for increased campus security and Idaho State Police patrols, student counseling, a vigil and other expenses in the wake of the murders of Ethan Chapin, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Madison Mogen.
