VIGO COUNTY, Ind.  – A plea deal for a woman involved in the case of a fallen Terre Haute Police officer.

20-year-old Lakrista Julian entered a guilty plea to a felony charge of obstruction of justice.

The Vigo County Prosecutor’s Office says that Julian lied to officers about her boyfriend being armed the day Officer Rob Pitts was shot and killed.

Pitts was among many officers looking for Christopher Wolfe, who was believed to have killed his roommate, Pauly Olson on the same day.

The trail led police to Julian’s apartment in the Garden Quarter apartment complex.

Wolfe exchanged gunfire with police, killing Officer Pitts.

Julian will be sentenced on November 18.
