Accused murderer Aubrey Wadford appeared in court Friday morning for his arraignment at the same time that authorities released the name of his alleged victim and additional details around the killing.
Police say Wadford fatally stabbed 39-year-old Angela Laskey during a domestic dispute early Wednesday morning in a West Olivos Street apartment. Officers, responding to a disturbance call, discovered Laskey’s body inside and arrested Wadford at the scene. It’s not clear if the two, who were not married, both lived at the residence. Their 2-year-old daughter was present at the time of the killing but was unharmed, police said.
Authorities have charged Wadford with one count of murder with the special allegation that he used a deadly weapon — a knife — in the homicide. The arraignment hearing was rescheduled for November 4, and Wadford did not enter a plea. He’s being held in County Jail on $1 million bail.
