>

Quadruple murder suspect Bryan Kohberger began his extradition process back to Idaho after leaving Pennsylvania around 6 a.m. this morning.

The 28-year-old man left the Monroe County Correctional Center after waiving his right to extradition at a hearing Tuesday, according to NewsNation.

He is expected to be taken to the Latah County Jail in Moscow, which is less than two miles from where the brutal murders occurred on November 13.

The criminal justice graduate, Kohberger, mouthed “I love you” to his mother while in the courtroom, and his sister comforted her as she cried during the hearing.

Bryan Kohberger's extradition has begun, with sources confirming that he left the Monroe County Correctional Center at 6 a.m. Wednesday.

Warden Garry Haidle confirmed that Kohberger is no longer in his custody, adding that the Pennsylvania State Police are transferring him.

An Idaho judge has issued a gag order on Moscow police and legal teams in connection with the case, barring anyone connected to the case from speaking about it.

Latah County Attorney Bill Thompson said: “Once he gets here, he will have an initial appearance with our magistrate.”

“They will deal with issues such as making sure you are represented by a competent attorney, and the case will be scheduled for hearings.”

Kootenai County Chief Public Defender Ann Taylor will represent Kohberger Idaho, however a team of five investigators hired by her defense team was dispatched to the home where the quadruple murder took place.

It is unusual for state-paid defense attorneys to create a crime scene reconstruction.

Once Kohberger arrives in Idaho, state law will allow the court to unseal the probable cause affidavit, something the victim’s families have been anxious to see.

He will have to appear in court before that can happen, on four counts of murder and one count of burglary.

Former homicide detective and attorney Ted Williams said: “The fact that Bryan Kohberger’s attorney has retained private investigators to review this crime scene leads me to believe that he is definitely going to mount a strong defense.”

Kohberger’s Pennsylvania public defender, Jason LaBar, said the alleged killer hopes to be “exonerated,” with his family supporting him.

He says the family thinks it is “completely out of character” for him to be accused of the bloody murders.
