Woman Accused of Buying Gun in Colorado Prison Chief Murder Appears in Court

CENTENNIAL, Colo. (AP) — Investigators are looking into how much the woman accused of buying the gun used to kill Colorado's corrections chief knew about the slaying.

Stevie Marie Vigil made her first appearance in court today in Centennial after being arrested for buying the gun and giving it to Evan Ebel.

Ebel was a felon who was barred from possessing a firearm.

An El Paso County Sheriff's Office spokesman says investigators don't know yet what Vigil knew about what Ebel planned to do.
