OPINION BY Justice ELIZABETH B. LACY.

Ivan Teleguz was convicted by a jury of the capital murder for hire of Stephanie Yvonne Sipe in violation of Code § 18.2-31(2) and sentenced to death. We consolidated the automatic review of Teleguz's death sentence with the appeal of his capital murder conviction pursuant to Code § 17.1-313(F). For the reasons stated below, after consideration of the issues raised by Teleguz and our mandated review of the imposition of the death penalty, we will affirm the judgment of the trial court.
