Murder-for-Hire Plot in Nashville | Nashville News

Two men are in custody in Nashville after a chilling murder-for-hire plot unraveled — one shot a 26-year-old victim twice in the legs and grazed his head, while claiming he was paid $2,850 for the job and only got $350. The shooter, already on bond for a May burglary, was arrested Wednesday. His alleged boss, also 26, tried to flee in a car and now faces murder conspiracy, drug possession, and illegal gun charges — including a 2022 probation violation for shooting at his ex’s car. The victim is recovering at Vanderbilt. Authorities say the motive stemmed from past conflicts, and the case underscores the deadly consequences of such schemes.
