Hall County Assistant District Attorney Wanda Vance argues before the Georgia Supreme Court Monday during an appeal of Lynitra Ross' murder conviction in a February 2010 slaying.
The attorney for the go-between in a Valentine’s Day murder-for-hire scheme argued for an appeal Monday on the grounds of unlawfully obtained and unsuppressed phone records. Lynitra McKale Ross, of Austell, was convicted in May 2012 for her connection to the murder of Richard Schoeck two years prior. She received a life sentence for sending messages between Schoeck’s wife, Stacey, and the shooter, Reginald Coleman.
