Woman seeks acquittal in ex mayor of York death
Julia Phillips 71 of Gaffney asks South Carolina Court of Appeals to overturn her murder conviction in the 2010 killing of 79-year-old Melvin Roberts, a York mayoral target whose death involved head trauma and a zip tied neck. Prosecutors say she plotted Roberts death after he planned to end their relationship and cut financial support. Phillips is serving life for murder. Investigators have not found the actual killer.
