HOUSTON—A woman accused of trying to hire a hitman to kill her husband, was in court Friday morning. Police said they caught Catherine Shamp on tape offering a confidential informant $20,000 for her husband’s murder.

During the proceedings, the judge raised Shamp’s bond to $75,000.

She is still in jail, but if she does bond out she’ll have to wear an ankle monitor and make curfew, say officials.

Shamp is charged with solicitation of capital murder.
