(AP) — An Omaha man has been ordered to stand trial in four Omaha slayings committed just weeks after he was released from prison.
The judge found sufficient evidence for trial but didn’t set the start date for 26-year-old Nikko Jenkins at Tuesday’s preliminary hearing.
Jenkins is charged with four counts of first-degree murder.
They include the Aug. 21 death of 33-year-old Andrea Kruger, a mother of three who was heading home from work when she was fatally shot at an intersection on the west side of Omaha.
Two days earlier, the body of 22-year-old Curtis Bradford was found outside a garage in north Omaha. On Aug. 11 the bodies of 29-year-old Jorge Cajiga-Ruiz and 26-year-old Juan Uribe-Pena were found inside a pickup near a city pool in southeast Omaha.
