FBI STING? Bryan Kohberger pulled over TWICE for tailgating as cops wanted to capture video of his hands
MOSCOW, IDAHO: A Federal Bureau of Investigation surveillance team reportedly directed Indiana police to pull over Bryan Kohberger and his father on December 15 after tracking them on their cross-country road trip from Washington State to Pennsylvania.
The 28-year-old Idaho quadruple murder suspect and his father, Michael Kohberger were pulled over twice within a nine-minute timespan on I-70 while making a 2,500-mile cross-country trip. A law enforcement source told Fox News that the FBI surveillance team had asked police to stop Kohbergers to gather video images of Bryan as well as his hands to build a concrete case for making an arrest. Bryan was arrested on December 30 from his parent’s Poconos house. He has been charged in connection to the killings of Kaylee Gonvalves, 21, Ethan Chapin, 20, Xana Kernodle, 20, and Madison Mogen, 21, in their off-campus home on November 13, 2022.

Koherberger agreed to be extradited to Idaho from Pennsylvania in an earlier 10-minute hearing on Tuesday afternoon in Monroe County. "Yes," Kohberger said when Judge Margherita Worthington asked if he wishes to "waive the rights that I have just explained to you and return to the state of Idaho?"
