A Colorado mother accused of murdering two of her children and injuring a third was arrested in London after being on the run for days, The Independent reported. Kimberlee Singler, 35, appeared at Westminister Magistrate’s court on New Year’s Day, charged with the murder of her two children. 

Singler has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder, one count of attempted murder, three counts of child abuse and one count of assault. 

Her daughter, aged nine, and son, seven were found dead at a home in Colorado on December 19, along with her 11-year-old daughter who was injured, BBC reported. 

The National Crime Agency (NCA) in the UK reported that she attended an extradition hearing at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Monday. Following the hearing, she was remanded in custody, with the next court appearance scheduled for January 29.

A spokesperson for the NCA said, “On Saturday 30 December 2023 in the Kensington area of London, officers from the National Crime Agency’s National Extradition Unit arrested a 35-year-old female wanted in the United States of America for offences including two counts of murder and one count of attempted murder.”
