Bond denied in Georgia hiker kidnapping case
Judge denied bond for Gary Michael Hilton in Union County Georgia after he was charged with kidnapping missing hiker Meredith Emerson. Investigators search for Emerson's body and consider links to two other hikers missing in North Carolina and possible blood evidence tying to a body. Hilton, 61, appeared shackled as his attorney did not enter a plea. Authorities note he used Emerson's credit card, and police found bloody items near a store and a modified van. Investigators say the case may connect to the Bryant disappearance in North Carolina.
