Colorado authorities have issued an arrest warrant for a woman accused of lying when she filed a petition seeking to take away the guns of a university police officer who killed her son.
Susan Holmes of Fort Collins was being sought Friday on suspicion of first-degree perjury and attempt to influence a public servant, The Denver Post reported Thursday.
Larimer County deputies tried to serve the warrant, but could not find Holmes, sheriff’s office spokesman Jered Kramer said.
“At this point, we are fairly certain she is attempting to avoid us,†he said.
The warrant was issued a week after Holmes appeared in court to argue under the red flag law that the state should confiscate the guns of Colorado State University police Cpl. Philip Morris for a year after he fatally shot 19-year-old Jeremy Holmes in 2017, online court records said.
Jeremy Holmes reportedly bared a bayonet and charged officers after being told several times to drop the weapon. The 8th Judicial District Attorney’s Office ruled that the officers’ use of force was justified, and they were cleared of wrongdoing.
The warrant was first reported by The Coloradoan.
Holmes said on the petition that she and Morris shared a child together, but later said it wasn’t true during an interview with The Denver Post. A judge denied Holmes’ petition because she didn’t have legal standing to file it.

She was trying to destroy the life of a police officer who justifiably shot and killed her son. She needs to do prison - not jail - time.
