NEW YORK (AP) - New York City police say they've charged a nanny with murder in the stabbing deaths of two children last month.
Police finally could
interview 50-year-old Yoselyn Ortega as she continues to recover from
self-inflicted stab wounds. They charged her in her hospital bed
Saturday night with two counts each of first- and second-degree murder.
Police say Ortega fatally
stabbed 6-year-old Lucia Krim and her 1-year-old brother, Leo, on Oct.
25 in the children's Upper West Side apartment. She then stabbed
herself.
A third sibling was with
their mother when the killings happened. The mother returned home to
discover her children dead and Ortega bleeding.
