Authorities arrested a graduate student at the University of Idaho on December 30 after six weeks of investigation into the murders of four students.
The man accused of killing four University of Idaho students is going to be extradited.
The four University of Idaho students were stabbed to death in the middle of the night at their off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho.

In the police department's first press conference about the murders, Moscow Police Chief James Fry said "we cannot say there is no threat to the community."
Students at Washington State University told the New York that a graduate student who has not yet been publicly identified as a suspect in this case still attends classes.

The gruesome attacks captured the attention of the small town of Moscow, which hasn't seen a murder in seven years. The surviving roommates and other people who were with the victims the night before they died were ruled out by police. The murder weapon has not been found. On Tuesday, a gag order was issued on investigators, law enforcement personnel, attorneys, and prosecutors.
Police said they couldn't identify the person who told family and friends that she had a stalker. In October, a man followed her throughout a business and as she walked to her car, and this may have been the stalker she was referring to. There was no evidence that the man was connected to the murders.
The suspect in the University of Idaho killings was arrested.
