Raymond Wesner of Lawrenceville, Georgia was arrested back in April on several charges including Child Molestation.
Rather than have his family testify against him at trial Wesner decided he needed to have them killed. His cellmate contacted police last week saying that Wesner had tried to hire him to have his family killed, so investigators went undercover.
A police officer posing as a hit man (I guess the fact that the “hit man” was in jail and couldn’t have been very good didn’t occur to Wesner) contacted the man who offered him $75,000 to kill his family before his hearing.
Wesner has been charged with three counts of conspiracy to commit the crime of murder and three counts of attempted murder and threatening a witness.
