Attorney Edward Munoz said Friday that 20-year-old Samuel Woodward has been reading the Bible and faring relatively well under the circumstances.
Munoz spoke after a preliminary hearing for Woodward was delayed to June 14 to give lawyers time to review evidence.
Woodward has pleaded not guilty to the murder of 19-year-old Blaze Bernstein.
Bernstein went missing while visiting his family on winter break in Orange County. Authorities say they found his body buried at a park where he went with Woodward the night he disappeared.
Bernstein was gay and Jewish and authorities are investigating the possibility of a hate crime.
