Ashley Guillard (left) has accused Rebecca Scofield (right) of murdering the four University of Idaho students MOSCOW, IDAHO: A TikTok true crime sleuth who faced a defamation
lawsuit, stands by her claims that a University of Idaho professor of
gender and sexuality is involved in the brutal murders of four students
last month. Ashley Guillard was named in the lawsuit filed in Idaho by Professor Rebecca Scofield.
The Texan uses tarot cards and other readings to help her make claims
regarding true crimes. Even the police authorities have backed Scofield
as they said she had nothing to do with the killings and that they've
confirmed she was in Oregon when the gory crime took place.
The crime related to the vicious slayings of Kaylee Goncalves,
21; Madison Mogen, 21; and Xana Kernodle, 20; and Kernodle's boyfriend,
Ethan Chapin, 20, inside the home they rented just off campus, still
remains unsolved after more than a month. Scofield said she never met
any of the victims in the lawsuit. She sued Guillard for failing to
remove the videos in which the sleuth alleged that the professor planned
the murders as she was in a relationship with Kayla Goncalves. However,
despite the police saying they don't believe there's a connection,
Guillard is refusing to back down.
"When I go to court and they see the evidence or they see how I connect
the dots, then they'll make a decision as it pertains to whether they
want to continue to live in blinders or believe it. If they don't, I
don't care," Guillard told NewsNation.
Scofield's attorney sent a statement responding to the interview,
saying, "The statements made about Professor Scofield are false, plain
and simple. What's even worse is that these untrue statements create
safety issues for the professor and her family. They also further
compound the trauma that the families of the victims
are experiencing and undermine law enforcement efforts to find the
people responsible in order to provide answers to the families and the
public."
The tarot card reader had addressed the lawsuit in several videos,
saying Scofield will "regret" it. With apparently no evidence, Guillard
blamed Scofield for carrying out the killings with the aid of another
student as Goncalves was trying to break up with her and "keep from
making the relationship public." She began mentioning Scofield in a
video on November 24.
Guillard also boasts in her profile that she has solved the murders of
rappers Kirshnik Khari Ball, Takeoff as well as Shanquella Robinson and
Kevin Samuels. Scofield says in the lawsuit that none of the four
victims of the horrific killing were in any of her classes. The
professor was not even in Moscow on the day of the murders but was in
Oregon with her husband visiting friends. She said that she does not
even recall meeting any of the students.
According to Daily Mail,
at one point, Guillard alleged, "I don't care what y'all say, Rebeca
Scofield killed [the victims] and she was the one to initiate the
plan..." The fortune teller was asked to remove the video only after it
was watched by thousands but Guillard failed to act.
"Rebecca Scofield is going to prison for the murder of the 4 University
of Idaho students whether you like it or not", Guillard relentlessly
alleged in another video. Guillard, who goes by the moniker Ashley
Solves Mysteries on her TikTok profile, has over 105,000 followers and
has achieved 2.6 million likes. She claims herself to be a god in her
bio section.
Scofield said that she received numerous online threats as a result of
Guillard's videos and now she fears for the safety of her family. In a
video posted on December 22 titled, "Rebeca Scofield will regret this
lawsuit" Guillard says, "You just don't get it, I've been against people
big and small, corporations and giants, systemic policies and racism
and won." She added, "They all regret coming against me. All of them.
Now Rebecca will be added to that list of regretful people."
On her Facebook account, Guillard says that she is an army veteran
having served as an HR Sergeant in the US Army, between 2003 and 2007.
She also says that she attended Troy University and Columbus State
University. She is from Chicago and now lives in Houston having
previously lived in Atlanta. Guillard has written books with titles such
as Live in Fantasy Land and The War on Your Money.
'There's a lot of people who... want to be involved on the internet. We
are the official source of information", Moscow Police Chief James Fry
told KTVB
on Wednesday, December 21. Scofield is an assistant professor of
history at the University of Idaho according to an online profile. The
bio says, "She is interested in how popular ideas about the West play
out in people's everyday lives." Scofield was working on the Gay Rodeo
Oral History Project at the time the profile was written. Another
section reads, "Her other work covers topics such as country-western
icons like Dolly Parton and mechanical bull riding." The professor has a
doctorate in philosophy from Harvard.
