Georgia's top court is upholding the murder conviction of a Massachusetts millionaire for hiring an assassin to kill his wife. The Georgia Supreme Court's unanimous ruling today rejected a bid for a new trial for James Sullivan. He is serving life in prison for paying a hit man $25,000 to gun down Lita Sullivan at her Atlanta townhouse in 1987. James Sullivan's attorneys had argued that a search warrant used to get crucial evidence from Sullivan's $5 million Florida mansion was incorrect.

No bond for woman accused of hit man hire
Bond has been denied by a Clarke County judge for a woman facing charges of trying to hire a hit man to kill her husband and two others. A Superior Court judge said that 66-year-old Ivy Jean Davis poses a "significant risk" to flee and commit another crime if released. Davis was arrested May 7th after driving away from a meeting with an undercover officer posing as a hit man.
