• Two of Bryan Kohberger’s family members attended his sentencing hearing on Wednesday, July 23 — his mother Maryann and sister Amanda
• Kohberger, 30, reportedly ignored both his mother and sister after being sentenced to four lifetimes in prison, leaving the courtroom without acknowledging either woman
• Maryann was seen “shuddering at times and in one instance putting her head in her hands”

Bryan Kohberger had no words for his mother after he was sentenced to serve four lifetimes in prison on Wednesday, July 23.

The New York Times reports that after learning his fate, the quadruple murderer ignored both his mother Maryann and sister Amanda as he exited the courtroom.

They were the only two members of Kohberger’s family who were in attendance at his sentencing hearing.

Both women were later seen being escorted from the courthouse by Kohberger’s public defender Anne Taylor.

It was an emotional day in court for Maryann, who, according to the Times, was seen “shuddering at times and in one instance putting her head in her hands.”

At one point in the proceedings, a family member of one victim made mention of Maryann during her remarks.

“My heart aches for the kids’ roommates, and the families of the other victims and also the family of the perpetrator,” said Kim Cheeley, the grandmother of victim Madison Mogen.

Shortly after Cheeley spoke there was a brief recess, and upon returning to the courtroom, the Times reports that Kohberger did smile and nod at his mother, but that appeared to be the lone interaction between the two.

The hearing ended with Kohberger being sentenced to serve four lifetimes in prison without the possibility of parole on the four murder charges, plus 10 years on a burglary charge. He was also ordered to pay $270,000 in fines and civil penalties.

This comes three weeks after he appeared in the same Boise courtroom and confessed to the murders of: Mogen, 21; Kaylee Goncalves, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20; and Ethan Chapin, 20.

Kohberger’s sister Amanda looked eager to make a quick exit from the courthouse after the hearing, leading the way with her mother Maryann following close behind.

Amanda also appeared eager to shield her mother — who wore dark, oversized sunglasses — from the cameras.

It is unclear if the two women will have a chance to see Kohberger before he is released from the Ada County Jail and placed into the custody of the Idaho Department of Corrections.

Kohberger will now undergo a two-week evaluation after which the IDOC will determine what prison he is sent to for the rest of his life.

That will likely be the lone maximum security prison in Idaho but could also be an out-of-state facility due to safety concerns surrounding the high-profile inmate.
