She's 21, has two kids and a husband she wanted murdered.
That's the allegation against a Muskegon, Michigan woman, caught on tape telling an undercover police detective posing as a hit man that she thought having her husband killed would be "easier than getting a divorce" and she wouldn't have to "worry about breaking his heart."
All that coming from a baby-faced young woman with dyed red hair wearing a batman shirt and carrying a batman-stickered phone.
It's one of the coldest conversations I've ever heard.
According to news accounts, the suspect has pleaded guilty to Solicitation to Murder and is scheduled for sentencing later this month. She could go to prison for life, though her husband has reportedly asked that she not spend any time behind bars.
Somehow I doubt the judge will agree.
She doesn't appear angry in the video. She claims she and her husband aren't having problems. She just wants a "clean getaway" from the marriage and doesn't want to worry about her her "family's judgement." When the phony hitman tells her he's going to shoot her husband twice in the face to kill him, she responds, "It makes me sad," though I can't hear a lot of regret in her words. Earlier in the conversation, however, she stresses she doesn't want him hurt, even suggesting that perhaps the killer, "could do it painlessly, breaking his neck."
Her breezy manner is what's so terrifying. It suggests nothing more sinister than if she were planning a birthday surprise or a trip to the mall.
Take note, all of you who think evil wears a monster's face.
Sometimes it appears in the person of a smiley-faced girl-next-door with apple cheeks and a bad outfit.
