44 year old Nigerian woman, Uloma Walker-Curry pictured left has been
indicted in the murder of her 45 year old husband, Lt. William Walker.
According to Cleveland court papers, Uloma was found guilty of
conspiring with a group of young men to kill her husband so she could
collect his life insurance policy and cover up financial fraud she
committed in her husband’s name.
Prosecutors at the court proceedings on Monday September 14th, told the
court that investigations by the police indicted Uloma for aggravated
murder, conspiracy and felonious assault charges in the November 2013
killing of her husband Lt. Walker, who was shot to death in the driveway
of his Cleveland home.
Uloma, according to prosecutors, contracted the assassination of her
husband to Chad Padgett, 21 who then recruited his cousin Christopher
Hein, 22, and Ryan Dorty, 23. The trio were also indicted on the same
charges.
Cleveland homicide detectives initially followed leads provided by Uloma
that neighborhood drug dealers might have killed her husband to stop
him from complaining about them. But a Crime Stoppers tip and cellphone
technology, including text messages, led detectives to investigate Uloma
who was arrested last week, prosecutors said.
Uloma is expected to be arraigned tomorrow Thursday September 17th in
Cleveland
Municipal Court.
