Bryan Kohberger's victims' families have mostly talked about their disgust for his actions and their hope that he suffers in prison ... but one person is forgiving him before he's officially put away for life.

Kim Kernodle spoke at the Ada County Courthouse in Boise, Idaho ... and she said it might not be popular, but she's forgiving Kohberger for murdering her niece Xana and three others at the house near the University of Idaho.

She says she can't hold on to that hate in her heart ... and, to be the best person she can be, she says she needs to forgive and move on.

One of Bryan Kohberger's survivors had a friend read her victim impact statement in an Idaho court Wednesday -- revealing the quadruple murder was so traumatic she had to sleep in her parents' room for a year to feel safe.

Emily Alandt stood at a podium during Kohberger's sentencing hearing and read the statement from her friend Bethany Funke -- who was inside the murder house that fateful night in 2020, but survived along with Dylan Mortensen. As you know, Kohberger butchered to death Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves.

Alandt told a rapt courtroom audience and Kohberger himself that Funke slept in her parents' room for nearly a year with double locks on every door in their home.

Kaylee Goncalves' father looked Bryan Kohberger in the eye when he spoke to him ... turning his podium to stare directly at the man who killed his daughter before tearing into him.

Wendy Williams' high-powered lawyer, Joe Tacopina, did not mince words ... his client's guardianship "sickens" him, and he says he's gonna sue the people responsible for it.

Wendy and Joe were celebrating Wendy's birthday at Fresco by Scotto restaurant in NYC, when he told our photog the process of getting Wendy out of the guardianship is "despicably slow." Fact is, the judge seems immovable and will almost certainly deny their motion to end the guardianship, which has lasted more than 3 years.

We're told Joe will then demand a jury trial, and based on hours of convos Harvey and many others have had with Wendy, her release is all but a sure bet. Translation: As Joe says, she's her normal self -- the same person you watched on TV.
