A NASA astronaut accused of trying to kidnap a romantic rival for a space shuttle pilot's affections was charged with attempted first degree murder Tuesday.
"The intent was there to do serious bodily injury or death,'' Jones said, referring to a new steel mallet, knife, rubber tubing and large garbage bags that police found in her possession.
Lisa Marie Nowak, a Navy captain and married mother of three, had already been charged with attempted kidnapping, attempted vehicle burglary with battery, destruction of evidence and battery, and a judge had said Tuesday morning that she could be freed on $15,500 bail provided she stay away from the other woman and wear a monitoring device.
She was about to be released when she was notified that she wouldn't be going anywhere, Orange County jail spokesman Allen Moore said.
