MONROE COUNTY, Pa. — Kohberger's family released the following statement through his public defender Jason LaBar, Esq. on Sunday.
"First and foremost we care deeply for the four families who have lost their precious children. There are no words that can adequately express the sadness we feel, and we pray each day for them. We will continue to let the legal process unfold and as a family we will love and support our son and brother. We have fully cooperated with law enforcement agencies in an attempt to seek the truth and promote his presumption of innocence rather than judge unknown facts and make erroneous assumptions. We respect privacy in this matter as our family and the families suffering loss can move forward through the legal process."
Bryan Kohberger is set to appear in court on Tuesday, January 3, where he intends to waive his right to the extradition hearing, according to his public defender Jason LaBar, Esq.
LaBar also said Latah County would be ready to transport Kohberger back to Idaho as soon as Tuesday night into Wednesday morning.
