Five days before authorities say an Idaho man killed four neighbors, one of them allegedly exposed himself to the suspect’s wife and daughter, according to law enforcement documents released Tuesday.
Details of the alleged incident were included in an affidavit in support of the arrest of Majorjon Kaylor, 31, on four counts of murder in the weekend killings of Kenneth Guardipee, 65, Kenna Guardipee, 41 , Devin Smith, 18, and Aiken Smith. 16.
An attorney for Kaylor did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
According to the affidavit, authorities responded to and investigated a June 13 call about alleged lewd behavior in Kellogg, approximately 37 miles east of Coeur d’Alene. The affidavit did not say whether the neighbor, whose family lived on the first floor of a two-unit building, faced criminal charges for the alleged conduct.

On Sunday evening, Kaylor and his wife argued with the neighbor’s mother about the alleged incident of indecent exposure and the possibility of no consequences, the affidavit says, citing Kaylor’s wife, Kaylie Kaylor.
She told authorities she was standing near her husband when she heard a gunshot and saw Kenneth and Kenna Guardipee, both unarmed, fall to the ground, according to the affidavit.
Kaylie Kaylor said she then heard more gunshots coming from the house, the affidavit says.
“Kaylie Kaylor further stated that KAYLOR said that he did what he had to do and told his children that he was protecting them,” the affidavit says, adding that after the shooting, she heard him say that he had killed four people.
In an interview with authorities, Kaylor said she “broke up” and “lost it” over the dispute before declining further comment and asking for an attorney, according to the affidavit.
