Kaylee Goncalves, Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle and Madison Mogen were killed off campus at the University of Idaho.Kohberger's attorney, chief public defender Jason LaBar, said Kohberger plans to tell a judge in Monroe County, Pennsylvania on Tuesday that he will waive his extradition hearing so he can be quickly brought to Idaho to face the charges and is eager to be exonerated.
Eileen Cesaretti, who lives across the street, said she loves Kohberger's parents and is fond of their son, who she said helped her and her husband around their house when he was home from school. "I don't recall ever seeing him around," Duff said of Kohberger. "I thought I was moving to a safe, small community, but that hasn't been the case recently. I just think if these things are happening right under my nose, how do I protect ?"BK Norton, a student in the WSU Criminal Justice and Criminology Department, said Friday that they didn't know Kohberger well, but didn't like him.
"Call the tip line, report anything you know about him to help the investigators and eventually our office and the court system understand fully everything there is to know about not only the individual, but what happened and why," Thompson said.
