NY jail guard due in court on murder charges
HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — A jail guard is facing murder, kidnapping and other charges in New York.
Kim Wolfe is accused of killing her ex-girlfriend, who was a nurse’s aide, outside a hospital on Wednesday. Authorities say she then went to a relative’s home, where she killed her uncle, wounded her 88-year-old grandfather and took a niece hostage.
She is due in a Long Island court on Thursday. The name of her attorney is not on record.
Wolfe was arrested early Wednesday. Authorities say she spoke by phone with hostage negotiators about four hours after the shooting rampage began.
They say she had argued with relatives over an insurance policy.
