Julie Ann Hopwood, 56, Charlotte, was arraigned over the weekend on a murder charges and ordered to return to a Romulus courtroom Dec. 28 for further proceedings.
Hopwood, who teaches respiratory therapy part time at Central Piedmont Community College, allegedly opened fire on Amy Chesbro outside Chesbro's office in Livonia.
Police have released few details on the slaying; however members of Hopwood's family said the defendant and her one-time sister had been at odds since the sibling had started living as a man several years ago, The Detroit News said..
The News said Tuesday that the former sister, PJ Redbird TwoRavens, was believed to be engaged to the 35-year-old Chesbro.
"As best I understood it, she didn't like when her younger sister changed sex," said TwoRavens' uncle, Frederick Leetch. "I think this is something that's been bothering her because she didn't have a sister anymore."
Livonia police told the News Leetch's theory was incorrect. Other members of the Hopwood family said they had no explanation for the shooting and were devastated by Chesbro's death.
