Koehl, who would have been 18 or 19 years old at the time of the slaying, is expected to appear Thursday in Tennessee’s Knox County Superior Court. He will eventually “be extradited to San Diego where he has been charged with murder,” District Attorney Summer Stephan’s office said in a statement.
According to the story in The San Diego Union, the couple looking for a home to rent found Breen around 11:45 a.m. on May 25, 1990, sitting but slumped in the corner of a fence outside a home on Nimitz Boulevard and Locust Street. Arriving police officers saw blood spattered across the living room of Breen’s home and a broken window where it appeared he exited the home while wounded.
