Yikes, if looks could kill!

Michigan woman who advertised online for a hitman to kill her lover’s wife pleaded guilty to the murder-for-hire scheme, prosecutors said on Friday.

In November 2007, three California residents searching job listings on Craigslist.com found an advertisement for a “freelance” position posted by Linscott, according to court documents. The three job seekers contacted California police.

The defendant asked two of the respondents via e-mail to “eradicate” the victim and provided the victim’s name, age and employment address. In one correspondence, she said she was looking for “silent assassins” and offered to pay $5,000 to kill the victim, who was not identified by the court.

“This IS a serious proposition,” Linscott said via e-mail. Her account name was “bourne2run.”
