On Friday, state and federal authorities charged the woman who bought the guns, 24-year-old Dawn Nguyen, with lying on a form that said she would be the owner of the guns she bought for Spengler.

During an interview late on Christmas Eve, she told police she had bought the guns for personal protection and that they were stolen from her vehicle, though she never reported the guns stolen. The day after the shootings, Nguyen texted an off-duty Monroe County Sheriff's deputy with references to the killings. She later called the deputy and admitted she bought the guns for Spengler, police said Friday.

That information was consistent with a suicide note found near Spengler's body after he killed himself. The rambling, typed letter spelled out Spengler's intention to destroy his neighborhood and "do what I like doing best, killing people."

Nguyen is scheduled to return to court on Jan. 8. She declined comment Friday, and a working phone number for her lawyer could not be found.

1. The next time some gun porn poster claims existing gun laws are not being enforced, link him or her to this story.

2 So many times, we ask "Why? Why?" Maybe, sometimes, the answer is simply, "Because the killer wanted to kill."

1. Someone tried that with me once.

He wanted me to buy some guns for him. Even though he denied being a Felon, I suspected otherwise. It was one of the things that ruined our friendship.

2. This guy was not a garden variety felon. He had put 14 bullets into his nana.
