Police Say Jailguard Killed Ex-Lesbian Lover And Uncle And Kidnapped Niece

EAST MEADOW, N.Y. — Police say an off-duty jail guard shot and killed her former girlfriend outside a hospital, then went to a nearby house, where she shot and killed her own uncle, wounded her 88-year-old grandfather and took a niece hostage.

Kim Wolfe, a 43-year-old Nassau County correction officer, was apprehended hours later.

Wolfe was scheduled to be arraigned Thursday on unspecified charges. It was not immediately clear whether she had a lawyer.

Wolfe was hospitalized briefly on Wednesday, complaining of difficulty breathing, but was later released back into police custody.

She is suspected of fatally shooting Stacie Williams, a nurse’s aide at the Nassau University Medical Center sometime after 1 a.m. Police say Wolfe and Williams had split up but were discussing a possible reconciliation.
