LONDON (AP) — An American woman accused of murdering her two youngest children in Colorado last December told her 11-year-old daughter who survived the attack that God made her do it, a prosecutor said in a London court.
The girl begged for her life after Kimberlee Singler slashed her in the neck with a knife and — despite the child's plea for mercy — cut her again, prosecutor Joel Smith said.
The harrowing details came as Singler fights extradition to the United States in Westminster Magistrates’ Court.
Singler denies attacking her children and is concerned her daughter's statement to police was coerced, defense attorney Edward Fitzgerald said.
