An Iowa man is facing three counts of aggravated murder in Utah, where authorities say he killed three women. The Utah Department of Public Safety said Thursday that the man killed one woman, stole her vehicle then drove it to a trailhead and killed two other women before fleeing in one of their vehicles. He was arrested early Thursday in southwestern Colorado. Authorities say there’s no indication the suspect knew the women. A public defender representing the man in Colorado declined to comment Thursday. The Associated Press left a message with a Utah public defender's office regarding the charges in that state.
Court documents show that a man accused of killing three women in Utah was already known to police in Iowa. Twenty-two-year-old Ivan Miller had been scheduled for an arraignment Friday in Iowa where he's accused of breaking into a cabin back in December. Miller had been released without bail on those charges in January after vowing to appear for the next court appearance. He's now jailed in Colorado and separately charged in Utah with the deaths of the three women. A public defender representing Miller in the Colorado case said Friday during a court hearing that his client will fight extradition to Utah and does not want to speak to media.
