The son of a Vermont politician accused of killing his father, his father's wife, and a stepsibling has waived his right to face a judge in his home state.
Brian Crossman Jr., 22, appeared in a Lake George courtroom on Thursday for his extradition hearing.
He's currently charged with three counts of aggravated murder in the killings of his father, Brian Crossman, his father's wife, Erica, and Erica's son, Colin Taft.
Since he has waived his right to extradition, this means he will be transported to Vermont to face a judge for the triple murder.
During the hearing, he did not speak except to answer yes or no to questions asked by the judge.
Crossman Jr. was arrested in New York following the murders in Pawlet, Vermont, that occurred on September 15.
His father, Brian Crossman, had been a Pawlet Selectboard member at the time of his death.
He initially called 911 to report he found his family members dead from apparent shotgun wounds after returning from a midnight walk.
A Vermont court appearance has yet to be scheduled.
