A judge has set bail at $250,000 for a 21-year-old woman accused in the murder of a UWM student.

Tammi LaFave appeared emotionally distraught as she entered court and faced a judge for the first time.  LaFave is facing a felony murder charge in the death of Haroon Kahn.

LaFave allegedly helped her boyfriend, Travis Zoellick, murder Khan in order to get his sports car.

Zoellick, who was from Watertown, then killed himself as police were about to question him.

Police say she admitted to have considered stopping the murder, but chose not to.

Attorney Gerald Boyle, who has represented high-profile defendants including Jeffrey Dahmer and Mark Chmura, will defend LaFave.  He says he will explore whether Zoellick forced LaFave to assist him.

She will appear in court again one week from today.

LaFave, Zoellick Met on MySpace

According to a criminal complaint, LaFave, who is from Delafield, admitted to detectives that she met Zoellick on MySpace and had known each other two weeks before October 1st, when the event allegedly happened.

Zoellick told LaFave she was going to "take the car from the guy and then he was going to get rid of the guy that was going to show him the Mitsubishi."

According to the complaint, she said that Zoellick went to meet Khan, a UWM student, at Gordon Park on the corner of Humboldt and Locust in Milwaukee. That's when she saw Zoellick inside the Mitsubishi Lancer that Khan was going to sell Zoellick, and Khan in the passenger's seat.

The three of them discussed the car before Zoellick pulled a gun on Khan. She said in the complaint she gave Zoellick zip ties and "had figured that Mr. Zoellick had bound up Mr. Khan."

She then followed Zoellick and Khan in a separate car until they reached a storage facility on the 600 block of Boulder Road, just north of Watertown.

The complaint states that Zoellick then forced Khan into the back seat of the car in which she drove, and then she took them into the shed on the property.

LaFave said in the complaint that Zoellick took Khan into the woods and was gone for about 20 minutes, and he then came back with a bloody knife after slitting his throat.

LaFave admitted that if she didn't take part in incident, Zoellick might leave her.

She could face 55 years in prison if convicted.
