Bail preserved in Iowa murder-for-hire case
Judge Chad Kepros kept Justin DeWitt's cash bond at 600000 dollars after a Friday hearing. Prosecutors argued he is dangerous and posed a public threat, while defense claimed he was set up by a state witness. Prosecutors noted more than 30 guns found at DeWitt's home and truck, and a potential risk to the victim's family if released. The case centers on alleged plans to kill a former business associate and the associate's family.
