Sarah Jo Hopkins ^ appeared in court today to face charges of transferring a gun to a known felon (Kansas spree killer Cedric Ford who killed three and wounded 14 others).
Authorities say she owns the .40-caliber semi-automatic Glock Model 22 and AK-47-style semi-automatic Zastava Serbia rifle found with Ford’s body after he was killed by law enforcement.
Hopkins was released on $10,000 bond and was not required to put any money down, but will be fined if she fails to follow the rules of her release.
Hopkins had sought and received help from the police department in retrieving her guns from Cedric Ford's home when she left him and moved out. She contends that she later gave them to him when he threatened her.
Hopkins' family and pastor attended today's hearing. Her pastor described her as a loving mother and a very kind person who had been keeping her distance from Ford and had moved on after an abusive relationship.
