Seriously. Not fooling:
A man from Kent, England has been jailed for failing to kill a woman despite accepting money to carry out the hit.
The would-be hitman, Kevin Reeves of Snodland near Rochester, promised Christine Ryder he would arrange her slaying in exchange for a large bag of cash.
He kept getting more and more money out of her, but never did wack her. So, he was thrown in the pokey. But, not for taking the contract to kill her:
Judge Veronica Hammerton said: "This was a calculated deception, repeated three times… In all the circumstances, these offences are so serious that a custodial sentence is unavoidable." She also ordered Reeves to hand over the £2,000 he has saved up to pay Ms Ryder back.
Sent him to jail for fraud. Not murder for hire. Weird. Can get alot more here.
