The nanny accused of fatally stabbing two children whom she cared for on the Upper West Side has been indicted on murder charges, according to court records released on Tuesday.
The nanny, Yoselyn Ortega, 50, remains hospitalized at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center. Her arraignment on murder charges is expected to take place via a video link to State Supreme Court in Manhattan, but has not been scheduled.
In the early evening of Oct. 25, the police have said, the children's mother, Marina Krim, returned home with her 3-year-old daughter to find her two other children - Lucia, 6, and Leo, 2 - dead of knife wounds in the bathtub.
As Ms. Krim walked into the bathroom, the police said, Ms. Ortega plunged a kitchen knife int o her own throat.
Ms. Ortega was intubated and unable to speak for more than a week. She eventually told detectives that she resented the family because they always told her what to do, a law enforcement official said last week.
