The Los Angeles County Coroner's Office says the bodies of all nine people on board the Kobe Bryant helicopter have been recovered from the crash site.
Officials say: "investigators are actively working on identifying the decedents. Additionally body examinations are in progress."
At the moment no formal announcement has been made concerning Kobe's memorial but according to news reports, the Staples Center would be too small to house the amount of people expected to come out to pay their respect.
