WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - The woman accused of murdering a Wichita woman and kidnapping her newborn baby is now in a Kansas jail.

Online jail records show Yesenia Sesmas was booked Wednesday afternoon into the Sedgwick County Detention Center in Wichita.

KAKE-TV reports the Dallas County Sheriff's Office says was released from that county's jail Wednesday morning to be taken to Kansas.

Sesmas is accused of killing Laura Abarca-Nogueda at a west Wichita apartment in November. She then allegedly took the woman's daughter, Sofia, who was six days old at the time.

Sesmas and the baby were found two days later a Dallas home. The child was not injured and was returned to relatives in Wichita.

The 34-year-old Sesmas was in custody in Dallas and was served extradition papers Jan. 6.
