KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - The woman accused of stabbing a Kansas City Fire Department paramedic who was trying to help her has been charged with murder.

The Clay County Prosecutor’s Office announced on Sunday evening that Shanetta Bossell, 38, of Kansas City, has been charged with murder in the first degree and armed criminal action as a result.

Responding officers said they located Bossell and ultimately requested EMS for further treatment. Transport to Saint Luke’s Hospital was started; however, around 1:25 a.m., she stabbed KCFD Firefighter/Paramedic Graham Hoffman.

Unfortunately, the Kansas City Fire Department indicated that the knife pierced Hoffman’s heart. He succumbed to his injuries in the ICU at NKC Hospital.

If convicted, Bossell could be sentenced to spend the rest of her life behind bars. As of Sunday evening, she remains behind bars on a $1 million bond.

Bossell was arrested last Wednesday, April 23, after she allegedly bit a Platte City Police Department officer during a separate arrest. She was previously charged with assault and resisting arrest.

A judge reviewed the circumstances in the previous case and Bossell’s bond had been set at $10,000. She posted that bond before Saturday and was released.

“Graham was 29 years old, someone who had an exceptional life ahead of him, and he died doing something that was so impactful and important to all of us, serving the community,” Mayor Lucas told members of the media. “There will be many steps ahead as we evaluate what happened, as we review what occurred, as we address whatever needs to happen in the future. But today I’m focused on grieving for his mother, his father, his sibling, his family and everyone in the KCFD family.”

Should read *executed*.

These America hating leftist judges need to be held accountable for the crimes committed by the ferals they release and inflict on society. They're accessories.

You are absolutely correct. People are fed up with this “having emotional issues.”

Everyone has *emotional issues*.

It’s no excuse for bad behavior.

Why? Because it was before they updated the story.

Scott Adams is doing the bidding of Satan in helping to divide Americans.

You two and Scott Adams are the arms of Satan.

It’s probably a good idea to search someone involuntarily detained for a mental health crisis - even if she agrees to be transported.

I guess she knew she had a chance to kill a whitey so she carried the knife to the ambulance. Will this be a new cause outrage and gofundme for the Left?
