A Stevensville woman has been sentenced for her role in the death of an Eau Claire firefighter.

Authorities were called to a shooting on November 2 and found Chad Medlin of Benton Harbor unresponsive and suffering from life-threatening injuries. Another man had also been shot, but Medlin later died.

The suspect in the shooting, 47 year-old Rigoberto Gomez of Eau Claire is facing six felony charges. Forty-three year-old Elizabeth Harper pleaded guilty to tampering with evidence in the case in December, and was initially charged as an accessory after the fact. That charge was dropped after a plea agreement, according to WNDU.

She was given a sentence of two years’ probation, 180 days in jail with credit for 84 days served, 100 hours of community service, and $678 in fines and costs.
