XENIA — A Xenia woman arrested in November in connection with a stabbing death has been indicted by a Greene County Grand Jury.

Tova Wallace-Lee, 21, was charged Feb. 1 with murder, a special felony punishable by an indefinite term of 15 years to life; and second-degree felonious assault in the stabbing death of Tre’Ana Tarver, 19, after an apparent altercation.
