BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut woman authorities say got her cousin to kill her husband has been held on $1 million bond.

The Connecticut Post reports that 35-year-old Larise King appeared in court Monday to face charges of conspiracy to commit murder and criminal liability for the acts of another.

She’s charged in connection with the July 27 death of 32-year-old Dathan Gray, of Bridgeport.

Police say on the evening of July 26, King and a friend argued with Gray at a restaurant and she threatened him.

Police say a short time later Gray was shot as he stood on a sidewalk.

King told police she was at home at the time of the shooting. The case was not listed in online court records and it could not be determined who represented her.
