In Part 2 of Stolen Betrayal: The Life and Tragedy of Lita McClinton, we dive into the twisted motives, the hired hitman, and the decades-long pursuit of justice for a woman who deserved so much more.

Power, greed, and a cold-blooded plan.

Jim Sullivan, a wealthy businessman with everything to lose, was hundreds of miles away in Florida when his estranged wife, Lita McClinton, answered the door to what should have been an ordinary delivery. Instead, she met a bullet. The brutal murder was no random act—it was orchestrated with chilling precision by a man who refused to let go.


Fueled by greed and an unchecked ego, Sullivan’s desire for control didn’t end with divorce papers. He wanted Lita erased. But how did he pull off a murder from another state? And how did investigators finally unravel the tangled web of deception?
