Sean Kingston Will Be Extradited To Florida Amid Fraud Charges

by

Sean Kingston is facing some serious legal scrutiny right now. Overall, this is all in connection with the raid on his home that took place late last week. As we reported, Kingston’s mom was arrested during the raid and hit with eight charges. Meanwhile, Kingston was in California at the time and was subsequently arrested. Since last week, Kingston has been incarcerated at a facility in San Bernardino, where he has been awaiting extradition.

According to Billboard, the artist was supposed to have a court hearing yesterday. As it turns out, Kingston did not show up, although his representatives did make their way to the court. It was here where he ultimately decided to waive his right to fight extradition. Instead, he will simply be flown back to Florida in due time. When he returns home, he will be fighting a total of 10 charges. These charges mostly have to do with alleged fraud, grand theft, and even identity theft.

Bryan Kohberger Pulled Over Twice Shortly Before Arrest

by

If all goes as planned, 28-year-old Bryan Kohberger will be extradited back to Idaho in the near future. The Ph.D. student, accused of killing four University Idaho Students near the end of 2022, is unlikely to fight the process, according to his attorney.

Additionally, extradition lawyer James LaBar tells the media that his client was pulled over twice before his actual arrest last Friday (December 30). During a chat with NBC, he explained that the incidents happened during a road trip with his father. They were travelling from Seattle to Pennsylvania over the holidays.

Both traffic stops were in the state of Indiana, though LaBar is unsure if they were given any tickets. “I just know they were pulled over in Indiana almost back to back. I believe once for speeding and once for following too closely to a car in front of them.”

Kohberger has reportedly been getting updates about the allegations brought against him. At this time, it seems his plan remains to waive his extradition rights, and plead not guilty.

While the criminology student maintains his innocence, Moscow Police Chief James Fry is confident they’ve found the killer. During a press conference last week, he gave as many answers as possible. However, it was frequently noted that many details must remain under wraps due to legal logistics.

He was able to verify is that Kohberger likely acted alone during the slayings. Also, the murder weapon has not yet been found. At this time, Fry believes the community of Moscow is safe, though he encourages residents to remain vigilant.

The alleged killer’s extradition hearing is scheduled for this week. Once he’s been securely returned to Idaho, authorities will share information such as the tips that led them to follow Kohberger, as well as any prior relationship he had with his victims.
