Authorities Mum On Autopsy Of Silverthorne Woman

SILVERTHORNE, Colo. (CBS4/AP) - An autopsy has been completed on a Silverthorne woman found dead in a river after she was reported missing, but authorities aren't releasing any information.

Police and the Summit County coroner's office said Monday that an autopsy was done on 41-year-old Stephanie Roller-Bruner, whose body was found in the Blue River near Silverthorne Friday. They say a determination on how she died is pending.

Authorities haven't said whether they suspect foul play in Roller-Bruner's death.

Her husband reported her missing Nov. 23 when she didn't return after leaving home the night before. Her family has said the mother of three was laid off from her job in October and filed for divorce Nov. 1.

On Tuesday family and friends are preparing to lay Roller-Bruner to rest at the Silverthorne Pavilion on Thursday without knowing how she died.

Police said any more information on how she died getting out to the public would harm the investigation and it could be weeks before it's released.
