"My daughter was beautiful both inside and out," she said during Kohberger's sentencing hearing. "She had a light so bright it will live on forever in our hearts. She brought joy and laughter to her friends, her family, and anyone in her presence."

Kernodle continued, "Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ now has her in His loving arms in Heaven, where she can never be harmed ever again for eternity."
