Authorities say her sister, Candice Hermeler, also shot herself in the head at the shooting range, but survived. Investigators say she told them the sisters from Australia's Victoria state had a suicide pact but refused to say why they wanted to die.
Candice Hermeler left a Denver-area hospital in late November.
