ILLINOIS, CHICAGO: An entire airport in Illinois was evacuated so that Bryan Kohberger, 28, could relieve himself. The Idaho murder suspect was led from a private jet into a Flightstar in Champaign around 11 am Wednesday, January 4, 2023.

According to TMZ, Kohberger was led in and out of a Flightstar at Willard Airport in Champaign. However, eyewitnesses claimed that the plane was refueled before he entered the airport, which was placed under lockdown. All passengers and employees were asked to go out of the airport and then Kohberger was taken to the plane and they took off without any incident.

TMZ has also reported that the flight passed over South Dakota before reaching Idaho. Kohberger traveled in a 2015 fixed-wing, single-engine Pilatus owned and operated by the Pennsylvania State Police. He was extradited in relation to the November 13, 2022, murders of University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin.

Meanwhile, Kohberger and his father Michael were twice pulled over by the police while driving a car in December and given verbal warnings. He was arrested on Friday, December 30, at his parent’s home in Albrightsville, Pennsylvania and appeared in court on Tuesday, January 3.

Meanwhile, an Idaho judge has granted a gag order shared by Moscow police. The police said, "On January 3, 2023, Latah County Magistrate Judge Megan Marshall issued a nondissemination order in regard to the murder case against Bryan C Kohberger. The order prohibits any communication by investigators, law enforcement personnel, attorneys, and agents of the prosecuting attorney or defense attorney concerning this case."

Further, Kohberger's lawyer Jason LaBar said, "They [Kohberger's parents] don’t believe it to be Bryan. They can’t believe this. This is certainly completely out of character, the allegations, and really they're just trying to be supportive with the understanding these four families have suffered loss, so they're sympathetic towards that, and that's why it should remain really private and they don't want to try this case in the court of public opinion. He believes he’s going to be exonerated. That’s what he believes. Those were his words. He’s been very easy to talk to. Actually, he’s in a calm demeanor." 

In a recent statement, Kohberger's family stated, "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 a loss can move forward through the legal process," according to People.
