The dismembered bodies of Jessica Lewis and her boyfriend, Austin 'Cash' Wenner, were found in a suitcase on a Seattle beach by TikTok users.
Authorities were altered by the TikTok users and a video was posted on the video app.
The teenagers were making videos and using the exploration app Randonautica when they made the gruesome discovery on June 19.
The video posted to TikTok went viral after it was posted, reaching 30 million views.
The video was posted with the hashtags 'crime' and 'murder'.
The video shows teens discovering the suitcase on a rocky breakwall below a jetty at the shore at Alki Beach in west Seattle.
The Seattle Times have reported the pair previously argued with their landlord regarding their rent payments.
DailyMail.com say police learnt gunfire had been heard by neighbours and yelling inside the property, 10 days before the bodies were found.
Police found blood and bullet holes inside the house, however, they 'could not explain' the blood, bullets or bullet holes.
KIRO7 reported a medical examiner determined the pair gad been shot several days before their bodies were found.
After several pleas from the victims' families to take the video down, it was removed this week.
However, it is unclear whether the account user or TikTok took the video down.
