Ok, but the thing that is completely confusing to me is that the court docket had her appearing in person this afternoon in court!

Oh yeah that’s weird. I didn’t even notice that.

Oh yeah that’s weird. I didn’t even notice that.

I’m assuming they must have postponed the hearing because I’ve not heard anything about her being extradited back to the US.

Is it possible that she could have appeared from the UK via ZOOM?
Do they allow that?

Oh, OK — I get it now! Thanks.

 

[cvaldez1975]

I completely agree with you. I don't understand why the court continued to allow her to bring motions and then not show up for her own motions, much less his????? Seems like this was a pattern for sure.

it was a lot of stalling

Colo. Mom Who Said Intruder Killed 2 of Her Kids Now Under Arrest In London: 'She Seemed Like a Normal Mother'

Kimberlee Singler, 35, is accused of killing her two youngest children, 9 and 7, and trying to kill the oldest, 11, say police

EL PASO COUNTY, Colo — Just one day before a Colorado Springs mother was accused of killing her two young children and injuring a third, a judge granted an emergency motion that ordered the children to immediately be turned over to their father until a hearing in mid-January
…
Police announced that she was arrested in the UK on Dec. 30. She is due in court there next week as she awaits extradition back to Colorado.

Singler, who is now in custody in the United Kingdom, awaits an extradition hearing scheduled for Monday.

According to the U.S. Justice Department’s Criminal Division, extradition between the U.S. and the U.K. is controlled by a treaty between the two countries signed in 2003. The extradition process laid out in that treaty includes multiple factors that could affect Singler’s case back in Colorado Springs, and the timeline of her return.

The DOJ’s website states the extradition process is typically comprised of a judicial phase and an executive phase. The judicial phase begins at the time the suspect is found and arrested in the requested country.

“During the judicial phase, a court will determine whether the extradition request meets the requirements of the applicable extradition treaty and the law of the requested country,” according to the DOJ.

If it is decided that Singler can be extradited by a judicial authority, the case then enters the executive phase in which an executive government authority of the U.K. will determine whether they will surrender Singler for extradition.

Extradition for Colorado Springs mother charged with killing her kids could 'take months'

After more than a month following the murders of two Colorado Springs children, more questions than answers remain regarding extradition of the mother and prime suspect, Kimberlee Singler, back to

I just looked up Susan Smith. She is still incarcerated, yes? I see that she's eligible for parole later this year, but is there an indication that she will get it? I also didn't see she'd remarried but could have missed that as well.

Wiki says Susan Smith will be released this coming November.

 

[DFWNF]

So, I guess like Susan Smith she does her 30 years in prison - gets out - and marries one of her many admirers. One thing for sure I'd do and is never done - if I'm the husband and remaining child, I legally change my name very soon. Just me.

What do you mean?

 

[DFWNF]

It's still easy. I flew into the UK from a commonwealth country and flew into France from a Schengen country. Not once were we required to show our passport. Only on the way out of France did we have to go through passport control at the airport.

Bbm, I don't really travel but have never heard that term.

Me neither, but it makes sense - sorta.

Well, the FBI is involved -- but, it is "The Holiday Season", after all. I'm thinking she headed South to Florida.

Ot Alexwood, is that a Northern Flicker as your avatar?

Wiki says Susan Smith will be released this coming November.

This is incorrect. From Wiki, bolding mine: "According to the South Carolina Department of Corrections, she will be eligible for parole on November 4, 2024." "Eligible for" does not mean it will be granted.

Has anyone opined yet on the UK as a destination? She had past celebrity obsessions, per her husband. Have we gotten to where we’re accepting/researching this? MOO: this will become a clear focus of this case at trial.

12/30/23 Update: Singler was taken into custody in the United Kingdom on 12/30/23 per the Colorado Springs Police Dept. She was arrested by the National Crime Agency at a hotel in Kensington, west London & appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on New Year's Day, 1/1/24 facing extradition to the United States. Singler told the court she did not consent to being taken back to the U.S. She was remanded in custody & will next appear in court on 1/29/24 @ 10am.
1/3/24 Update: Child Custody: Court site shows Review hearing on 1/3/24 @ 1:30pm, with a pretrial coherence hearing still set on 1/10/24. 1/3/24 Update: No info on whether a hearing was held. Next on court site is pretrial conference hearing on 1/10/24 @ 3:30pm.
1/5/24 Update: Colorado Springs Police Chief Adrian Vasquez issued a statement. We will provide answers, to the extent we can, as soon as it is appropriate for us to do so. ”Extradition from the United Kingdom is controlled by a treaty between the United States & the United Kingdom that was signed in 2003. It is likely that Singler’s extradition will take a considerable amount of time & it is important to note that neither the United States nor the 4th Judicial District Attorney’s Office controls the pace of the extradition proceedings. If the UK courts rule a defendant can be extradited, an executive authority of the government must agree to the extradition. The process provides defendants with multiple appeal steps along the way. Singler’s arrest warrant, issued on behalf of the State of Colorado, remains sealed by the court. The warrant will likely remain sealed until Singler appears in court here in the 4th Judicial District.
1/29/24 Update: Child Custody Colorado Court site shows hearing on 3/29/24 @ 1:30pm.

In the hearing, Singler was asked to confirm details such as her identity, and date of birth.

The judge has postponed the next hearing until, Feb. 26.

Authorities believe the formal extradition paperwork filed by the United States will arrive by this date, so they can begin the process to extradite Singler back to Colorado Springs to face the charges.
