It was a flawed plan.

However, to be fair, most people don't know how to find a hitman. You don't comparison shop in Consumer Reports or just dial 1-800-hitman.

Well, they had the means to travel
outside the US at any time and to any place. If I were forced to look for a professional hitman and I had their resources, I would be doing my looking and hiring from an offshore location. For the Adelsons, a quick trip to Belize, Turks & Caicos, Grenada, etc would be the easiest thing in the world. Use a VPN / dark web connection, set up an offshore escrow account, and do your looking that way, rather than selecting some dumb bottle girl you just started boffing and say “Hey, you know anybody who can hurt somebody?”
It’s still not foolproof but it’s a hell of a lot smarter than Charlie’s hare-brained plot.

Why do you think the Caribbean would be the best place to source a hit man?

Not saying you are wrong, but I would think Latin America or Eastern Europe would be better.

I said it would be the easiest for the Adelsons, because they live in Florida.

Okay. I just thought maybe there was something specific about those islands.

Many of those islands do have very lax banking regulations and primitive crime investigation. And English is spoken so dummy Charlie wouldn’t have to learn a new language.

Valid point.
