Default Court affirms Va. woman's death sentence
RICHMOND — A federal appeals court upheld the death sentence of the only woman on Virginia's death row Friday, increasing the likelihood that the state will execute a female for the first time in nearly 100 years.

A three-judge panel of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously ruled against Teresa Lewis, who was sentenced to death for plotting to have her husband and stepson killed in their Pittsylvania County home in 2002 so she could collect a $250,000 life insurance policy.
