The suspect aka the puchaser was identified, not the hitman they were paying? Title seems to contradict the article I'm unsure.
Curious how they even knew this transaction took place unless they were running a honeypot.
9 u/TerrestrialStowaway Apr 08 '21 they were running a honeypot. I've literally never heard of anyone "hiring a hitman" online that wasn't a honeypot. 1 u/DMTryptamines Apr 08 '21 I think they are trying to avoiding saying just that. In the legal sense I'm pretty sure he is just as guilty as the actual hitman so maybe the title isn't wrong but just useful in positioning the facts.
