(Waterloo, IA) A Milwaukee murder suspect is fighting extradition from Iowa. Simone Hughes was arrested Wednesday morning after an eight-hour standoff in Waterloo. Hughes is accused of killing his girlfriend and wounding his 14-year-old daughter. During a hearing Thursday, Hughes didn’t waive extradition which would have allowed Milwaukee police to come to the Black Hawk County Jail, pick him up, and return him to Wisconsin to face the charges. Now, Milwaukee County officials will have to apply for a governor’s warrant. Quinette Walters was killed outside the couple’s home January 6th. W-I-S-N Television reports Hughes apparently killed the victim after she said she no longer wanted to be in a relationship with him.
