'Killer' nanny accused in kids' bathtub slashing deaths hit with throw-away-the-key indictment

A grand jury has voted a throw-away-the-key indictment -- charging first degree murder -- against Yoselyn Ortega, the nanny accused in the bathtub slashing deaths of two young Upper West Side children under her care.

The rare charge -- brought only 27 times in all of New York in 2011, according to state stats -- carries the maximum sentence of life without parole, meaning zero chance of daylight.

It is reserved for the most heinous homicides, including serial killings, the killings of judges and cops, and killings deemed cruel and wanton.

In Ortega's case, the grand jury found the charge is warranted because there were two victims, Lucia and Leo Krim, according to a copy of the indictment filed publicly today. The girl was 6 years old; the boy was 2.

Yoselyn Ortega, accused of murder.

Ortega has remained at New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell since Oct. 25, when the children were found bleeding to death in the bathtub of their W. 75th Street apartment by their mother, Marina Krim. Ortega had slashed her own self in the throat.

Marina Krim's surviving child, 3-year-old Nessie, had accompanied her mom home to their house of horrors and was physically unharmed.

The nanny had been suffering mental and financial difficulties, and told cops that she resented the Krim family for asking her to do an extra five hours a week of housework.

No date has yet been set for Ortega to be arraigned on the indictment, which charges her with two counts of murder one and two counts of murder two. A call to Ortega's lawyer, Valerie Van Leer-Greenberg, was not returned.

From Anti-Virus Mogul to Killer?

Last Thursday, eccentric American millionaire John McAfee gave a small speech outside the police department in San Pedro, Belize, about supporting local law enforcement and how the law was necessary to curb the negative aspect of the human animal. The Nov. 8 afternoon soiree was held because of the towns growing crime problem. During the event, the 67-year-old McAfeewho was accompanied by his 17-year-old girlfriend and his bodyguarddonated stun guns, pepper spray, handcuffs, metal detectors, and swat batons to the tiny police force.

Four days later, McAfee, who sports blond-tinted hair and body tattoos, was on the run from the very same police department, and is now wanted for questioning in the murder of his neighbor, Greg Faull, a retired Florida contractor he had an ongoing feud with.Faull was found by his maid face-up in a pool of bloodinside his two-story home north of San Pedro, a town on the island of Ambergris Caye. He had been shot once in the back of his head.

The Nov. 11 death of Faull came as a huge shock to the small, touristy village of locals and ex-pats, who get around the island on golf carts. Until this incident, the town of 20,000 was known mostly for having the second-largest barrier reef in the world after Australia, and as the place to go to for snorkeling with friendly nurse sharks. Although the town has seen a rise in home burglaries, most of the crime involves petty theft and drug hustlers trying to make a buck off tourists.

It doesnt look like a robbery, but a hit, said a shocked San Pedro Mayor Daniel Guerrero.

So far, police have detained two people who have been seen with, or worked with [McAfee], but the investigation is still in its infancy, says Raphael Martinez, spokesman for Belizes Ministry of National Security.

Although police have declined to say if McAfee is their No. 1 suspect, Martinez told The Daily Beast there were no signs of forced entry. Nor do police believe Faulls death was a burglary or robbery gone bad. We havent established the motive, but burglary or robbery doesnt seem to be it, Martinez says. Nothing of major importance was missing from his house. He added, We are still seeking Mr. McAfee for questioning but he cant seem to be found so far.

At least, that is, by the police. McAfee contacted Wired magazine about his innocence and claimed Faull was not the real target of the killer. McAfee was.

McAfee also claimed that he spent the last few days hiding in boats and sleeping in ditches and on a lice-infested mattress because he fears the cops will kill him if he goes to them. You can say Im paranoid about it but they will kill me, there is no question, he told Wired. Theyve been trying to get me for months. They want to silence me. I am not well liked by the prime minister. I am just a thorn in everybodys side.

I smiled as I read [the article], said Martinez. We dont live in the type of country where we can pick someone up and arbitrarily kill them. Our laws are based on British laws, and if he fears for his life he should be accompanied by someone or have someone come along with him when he comes in for questioning. He also said in the article that there is no better place for him to live than Belize. I am just wondering what his frame of mind is.
