LONDON ( KXRM ) — The extradition hearing for Kimberlee Singler , the mother accused of killing her two children, 7-year-old Aden Wentz and 9-year-old Eliana “Ellie” Wentz in Colorado Springs in December 2023, began on Tuesday in London and is scheduled to conclude on Friday, according to FBI Denver.
A warrant was issued for Singler on multiple counts of murder, child abuse and attempted murder, leading to her arrest in the United Kingdom on Dec. 30.
Police, DA: Singler’s extradition could take ‘considerable amount of time’
On Dec. 18, the Colorado Springs Police Department responded to a call about a burglary, and once officers arrived on the scene at a Stetson Hills condo, they found the bodies of the two children, as well as an injured 11-year-old and Singler.
Singler was sent to the hospital with minor injuries but disappeared shortly after.
When the original burglary call was discovered to be false, Singler was identified as a suspect, and CSPD began searching for her. Later, she was discovered and arrested in the UK.
