It was later revealed that Schreiner was the ex-girlfriend of Schaefer. 

Schreiner was found guilty on Tuesday afternoon and immediately sentenced to life in prison without parole. 

District Attorney Michael Dougherty stated, "This defendant is a cold-blooded murderer.  She took steps to get away with this brutal murder, but she underestimated two things.  First, the victim was very much loved by his family and co-workers; the information and support they provided was critical.  Also, the US Postal Inspectors and Longmont detectives brought their best efforts and, along with our prosecution team, ensured justice was done.  As always, we appreciate the time and service of the jurors."
