$5M Bond Set for Man Accused of Plot with Mom to Kill Lawyer

NOBLESVILLE, Ind. (AP) _ A $5 million bond has been set for a man accused of plotting with his mother to kill a suburban Indianapolis divorce attorney seeking money from the mother's boyfriend.

The Indianapolis Star (http://indy.st/1O3q7gA ) reports 21-year-old Richard Perillo of California appeared by video Monday for an initial court hearing in Noblesville. He and his mother, 51-year-old Renee Perillo of Florida, are accused planning to kill Noblesville lawyer Rebecca Eimerman.

The two were released in May on $20,000 after being arrested on lesser charges outside Eimerman's home. Authorities say they didn't appear at a June court hearing and were on the lam for weeks. Richard Perillo was arrested in San Diego, and his mother was taken into custody in Montana.

Richard Perillo said he planned to return to Indiana after visiting his father in California.
