Durham Wife Arrested in Murder-for-Hire Has Bond Reduced

A Durham, NC woman arrested after trying to hire a hit man to kill her husband had her bond reduced to $200,000, The News Observer reported.

39-year-old Teressa Michelle Holman was busted last Thursday and charged with solicitation to commit murder, after she solicited a Durham County Sheriff’s detective posing as a hit man. Law enforcement officials, who were tipped off by telephone that Holman was looking to hire a hit man, said Holman met the undercover detective in the parking lot of the E. Greer Street Wal-Mart with a down payment for the murder of her husband, Rodney Holman.

Lt. Stanley Harris said the wife was arrested on the spot and transported to the county jail where she was held in lieu of a $2 million bond. One of Holman's four children, a 6-year-old, was with her when she met with the fake hit man. Harris said Holman has been married three other times and has four children, but none were fathered by the victim. All children were placed in the custody of relatives after their mother was arrested.
