Heavenly Faith Garfield, 21, has been charged with murder and felony discharge of a firearm in connection with the death of the unidentified victim, also 21, according to authorities.

A Utah woman who backed out of a suicide pact with her friend is now accused in her slaying after police allege she fatally shot the victim in the head. 

Heavenly Faith Garfield, 21, has been charged with murder and felony discharge of a firearm in connection with the death of the unidentified victim, also 21, according to authorities.

It's unclear if Garfield entered a plea to the charges or retained an attorney to comment on her behalf. 

Garfield's father called police to report his daughter allegedly shot and killed her friend as part of a suicide pact at their Saratoga Springs, Utah, home Tuesday, the affidavit stated, according to KUTV-TV.

The victim was pronounced dead on the scene.

Several of Garfield's family members corroborated the pact between the friends was made weeks before the alleged killing.

A friend of the victim provided police with text messages indicating she "intended on committing suicide, but was too scared to kill herself," according to the affidavit, KSL-TV reported. The victim planned to "commit suicide with her friend, whom he identified as Heavenly Faith, and that one of them would kill the other, and then kill themselves."

Garfield is being held without bail.
