The 25-year-old Estonian native is accused of the fraudulent plot during his single year as a senior at West Virginia University in 2023-23.

Kriisa was being extradited from Kentucky to West Virginia ahead of his court hearing scheduled for this week, according to the outlet.

The exact allegations against Kriisa weren’t immediately known as his case is being handled by the federal government.
