“This is a Nightmare”: Goncalves Family/Moscow community denounces Lifetime movie based on Idaho Murders

A planned Lifetime movie based on the murders of four University of Idaho college students by Bryan Kohberger has been met with a wave of online backlash. The Idaho community and the victims' families have strongly denounced the film, arguing it exploits their trauma for commercial gain.

"With everything that our family has been through, it's hard to fathom that people are now making a movie," wrote the Gancalves family. "This is a nightmare for us. We do not want Kaylee being portrayed in a slasher film. They are not characters, they are REAL people. It's heartbreaking. It's embarrassing, and Kaylee would not want this. I wish people would just stop."
