That article is from September 2019.
Dammit.
Whenever I see a comment like this I say “Poor Rick…”
“The Late Rick Kitchen”
“Alas, Poor Rick. I knew him, he was well ratio’d.”
Alaska woman kills her best friend because some guy online said he would give her $9 million if she would videotape the murder.
Nothing says “well-thought out murder plan” like “recruiting four teenage accomplices”.
This seems like a particularly dark episode of the show Catfish.
I would go further than that. Someone who thinks that rape is just “boys will be boys” is very likely a rapist himself.
This seems like an extraordinarily stupid plan, even by the standards of this thread.
For those who didn’t click on the link, the photo is the victim, Cynthia Hoffman.
In this picture the victim is on the left, the murderer is on the right.

Yeah, but $9-million! It’s worth a chance, right? Right??
Why couldn’t the murderer and victim get together and split the money?
Look, if one of you gets 9 mil (UP FRONT, CASHIER’S CHECK) to rub me out, call me up instead. For a mere 3 million, I’ll help you fake my murder.
I’ve had to die onstage, and was very dramatic. And so convincing that my next of kin were calling their lawyers as soon as the curtain closed.
I always pay for my hits by credit card, then I can request a chargeback if I find out it was faked.
That’s just smart money management.
Only if the murder is faked. if it’s real, the APR will kill you.
Not if you pay it off immediately. Based on the current interest rate on my savings account, using the credit card would net you about $2700 on the float!
