WALSENBURG, COLO. (AP) -- One of the three siblings accused in a multi-state crime spree is scheduled to enter a plea deal in court.
Colorado court officials say a deal has been reached between prosecutors and 29-year-old Lee Grace Dougherty, who is scheduled to be in court Thursday morning.
Prosecutors and her attorney aren't commenting, citing a judge imposed gag order. Prosecutors last week dropped attempted-murder charges against her and instead charged her with eight felony first-degree assault and menacing charges. Each charge corresponds to an officer involved in a high-speed chase Aug. 10 in southern Colorado.
The Dougherty siblings - Lee Grace, 26-year-old Dylan Stanley, and 21-year-old Ryan - are accused of shooting at a police officer in Florida, as well as robbing a Georgia bank.
