American Woman Denies Charges in London Court Amid Extradition Battle

In a London court, Kimberlee Singler, 36, denied charges related to the murder of her two children and the attempted killing of a third, as she fought extradition to the United States.

Singler, who has been charged in Colorado with multiple counts including first-degree murder, is alleged to have killed her nine-year-old daughter and seven-year-old son in December 2023. Prosecutors claim she shot the children in the head and stabbed them in the neck amid a custody battle with her ex-partner.

The defense argues that if extradited and convicted, Singler faces a mandatory life sentence without parole, which breaches her human rights. The court proceedings are set to continue on Thursday.
