Idaho State Police have released nearly 3,000 photos from the crime scene left behind by Bryan Kohberger when he stabbed 4 unsuspecting University of Idaho students to death at their home in the small town of Moscow ... and now we're getting a look at their bedrooms -- some splattered in blood, while others remained seemingly untouched.

You can see some bedroom photographs are right out of a nightmare -- blood stains are splattered across walls, sheets and clothing. These rooms belonged to the 4 students who lost their lives to Kohberger's knife in November 2022 -- Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Ethan Chapin, and Xana Kernodle.

Other images show typical bedrooms belonging to college students -- maybe a bit messy, nothing out of the ordinary ... some clothing and school supplies strewn about, no blood in sight. Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke were the 2 survivors from that dreaded night ... completely untouched.

Nancy Guthrie Kidnapping FBI Contacts Mexican Law Enforcement ... TMZ Receives New Ransom Demand

WE'VE RECEIVED ANOTHER LETTER...

The FBI has reached out to authorities in Mexico, in the hunt for Nancy Guthrie and her kidnapper, TMZ has learned ... and TMZ has received a new ransom note.

Law enforcement sources involved in the investigation tell us ... the FBI has contacted Mexican federal law enforcement to spread the word to various police agencies. We're told so far there have been no solid leads.

Our sources say the FBI believes it's possible Nancy was taken across the border, but it's unlikely it happened directly after the kidnapping. Authorities have checked Border Patrol cameras and other electronic devices, and they came up dry. That said, our sources say it's possible Nancy could have been taken across the border at some other time. Of course, there are ways to evade authorities when crossing the border.

TMZ has obtained another ransom note -- this one a highly sophisticated demand involving a cryptocurrency other than bitcoin. The email demands a dollar amount similar to the $6 million ransom demand in the previous email we received, days after the kidnapping. This email graphically describes the consequences if the ransom isn't paid.

Rashee Rice Sued By Longtime GF ... You Brutalized Me

Published | Updated

UPDATE

Rashee Rice's lawyer, Sean Lindsey, released a statement, claiming that on October 9, 2025, Jones stated under penalty of perjury in an affidavit for non-prosecution that Rice did not punch her. It was just a verbal argument.

"We will allow the legal process to run its course and have no further comment at this time," Lindsey said.

Rashee Rice's longtime partner and mother of his children has filed an explosive lawsuit against the NFL star, accusing him of choking, strangling, scratching, hitting, and headbutting her over a nightmare 19-month period.

The grisly details are part of a lawsuit filed by Dacoda Jones this week in district court, and obtained by TMZ Sports ... where she lays out what he says was a horrific pattern of abuse between December 2023 and July 2025.

"Rashee Rice continued to repeatedly [assault] Dacoda Jones over the course of their relationship," the lawsuit claims.

Jones -- who has two children with Rice -- says she was also subject to "other violent and abusive behaviors," which included the Chiefs' wideout throwing things at her, "punching walls, and breaking furniture."

Jones claims the abuse caused "bleeding, swelling, bruising, and other pain and physical injury to her neck, face, mouth, arms, legs, chest, and shoulder."

To make matters worse, Dacoda says most of the abuse occurred while she was pregnant.

It's not the first time Jones has gone public with the allegations of abuse. Last month on social media, Dacoda accused Rashee of getting physical with her ... and at the time, included photos she says prove he was abusive.

After hearing of the allegations, the NFL launched an investigation into Rice for possible violations of the league's Personal Conduct Policy. The investigation is still active.

We actually saw RR at LAX recently, and asked him about the situation ... but he stayed mum.

EVADING INQUIRY

Rice, a game-breaking weapon on the field, has been in hot water off it. He served jail time in 2025 after pleading guilty to multiple felonies for his role in a multi-vehicle crash on a Dallas highway.

In that case, the NFL suspended Rice six games before he returned to play for Kansas City.

On a personal level, Rice has a new woman in his life, recently going IG official on Valentine's Day with Instagram model Rubi Rose.

As for Jones explosive lawsuit, she is seeking more than $1 million, but didn't specify an exact amount.
