True Crime Brewery

On a quiet January morning in Atlanta, Georgia, Lita McClinton opened her front door to accept a delivery of pink roses and was quickly shot dead. The shocking murder of this vibrant young socialite sent shockwaves through the community and started a decades-long pursuit of justice. Join us today for The Final Arrangement. Lita McClinton’s story is a haunting example of love turned lethal, lies and betrayal masked by wealth, and a mother’s unshakable fight to uncover the truth behind her daughter’s murder. Today we are unlacing the tangled web of lies spun by Lita’s estranged husband, Jim Sullivan. The investigation spanned years and Lita’s family suffered, but they persisted in their relentless efforts to get justice for nearly 20 years after the crime.SourcesHitman Freed 31 Years After Shooting Millionaire's Estranged Wife in Her Doorway in Murder-for-Hire, People.com, Adam Carlson, 5/28/2018, https://people.com/crime/hitman-atlanta-socialite-murder-for-hire-released-prison/.Lita McClinton, Black Socialite
