Kimberlee Singler, a mother from Colorado, suspected of causing harm to her three children, was arrested in the United Kingdom on Saturday, as reported by the Colorado Springs Police Department. The arrest followed the tragic discovery of her nine-year-old daughter and seven-year-old son, who were found deceased on December 19, initially in response to a reported burglary that was later deemed unfounded.
Singler, 35, initially cooperated with the police but vanished during the investigation, leading to the issuance of an arrest warrant on Tuesday. The charges against her include murder and attempted murder. Authorities were unable to apprehend her, and she was last seen in Colorado Springs on December 23, not under surveillance.
Details regarding the overseas arrest were not provided, but the police stated they are collaborating with various law enforcement agencies. Attempts to contact Singler for comment were unsuccessful, and it is unknown if she has legal representation.
When police first responded to Singler's residence, they found her with minor injuries, the lifeless bodies of two children, and her 11-year-old daughter, who was also injured. Initially treated as a burglary victim, Singler's injuries were addressed. The injured girl was hospitalized briefly and is currently recovering in Colorado Springs.
The tragic incident unfolded amid an ongoing legal dispute between Singler and her ex-husband concerning parenting time and other matters, according to court filings.
