Michelle Peters, 41, was shot to death at her Colorado Springs home on the evening of July 13, 2018. Michelle and her daughter looked through the peephole and saw a person with long black and red hair holding pamphlets; when the daughter opened the door, the person—disguised in a wig—forced a handgun inside. The daughter recognized the voice as that of Michelle’s estranged husband, Mark Christopher Peters. Peters reportedly wedged his foot in the door, fired a single shot through it, and the bullet struck Michelle in the head. Medical technicians attempted aid but Michelle died at the scene.

At the time, Michelle had an active protection order against Mark Peters, and investigators were already looking into stalking allegations; there was an outstanding warrant for stalking and violating the protection order. A citywide alert described him as armed and dangerous and possibly on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. He was apprehended about midnight and charged with first-degree murder, held in the El Paso County Jail. Does anyone have information about Michelle, her daughter, or the events that night?
