Police in New Jersey arrested a Pennsylvania woman this week after hiring an undercover cop she thought was a hit man.
According to Philly.com, 52-year-old Denise Marie Nagrodski of Easton, Pa. was arrested on Tuesday for hiring the undercover cop to kill her daughter's ex-boyfriend, his sister, and her boyfriend. Nagrodski reportedly sought revenge against the man for abusing her daughter:
An undercover state police detective posed as a contract killer and met with Nagrodski Nov. 21 at the Phillipsburg Mall, investigators said.
There, she allegedly outlined her plot, asking that the ex's sister and her boyfriend each be shot twice in the forehead, "one for each twin," prosecutors said.
When Nagrodski was unable to provide the "hit man" with a gun, she agreed he would instead "bash in" the heads of those two victims and set their house on fire, according to authorities.
Prosecutors said she instructed the detective to burn her daughter's ex-boyfriend alive, and to make sure the victim knew Nagrodski was responsible for his death.
Nagrodkski had two meetings with the officer, paying him $500 each time. She was arrested by the New Jersey State Police after on Route 22 after the second meeting, and faces charges for attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder, attempt to tamper with or fabricate physical evidence, and conspiracy to commit aggravated arson.
