South Carolina man hired hitman to shoot black neighbor and hang his body from tree.

A team of undercover FBI agents recently foiled a South Carolina man’s plan of ‘ghosting’ his African-American neighbor. According to the case report, the South Carolina man planned on paying a hitman $500 to have the man living next door killed with an untraceable weapon.

South Carolina Man Wanted to Place a Flaming Cross on Neighbor’s Lawn

On Tuesday, Brandon Lecroy of Hodges was formally charged with making criminal solicitations. According to the authorities, the South Carolina man was under scrutiny for some time due to his overtly racist attitude towards his next-door neighbor.

In early March 2018, Lecroy set in motion a fiendish plan to have his African-American neighbor removed and his body mutilated. To this end, the man contacted a hitman, using a white supremacist chatroom. Little did he know that the man who should have carried out the murder was, in fact, an undercover federal agent.

After contacting the hitman, Lecroy shared the detail of his plan. The man employed to do the job was to purchase an untraceable 9-mm gun. Subsequently, he was to gun the victim inside his home and afterward hang his body from a tree.

Moreover, the South Carolina’s court documents reveal that he was also planning on lighting up a makeshift cross, which should have been placed on the victim’s front lawn.

Conclusion

For doing his dirty work, Lecroy promised the hitman $500, with a $100 down payment. The sum offered in advance should have covered for the weapon and anything the murderer needed to carry out the job.

Fortunately, Lecroy was taken into custody and charged with soliciting criminal services and attempted murder. He was booked into county jail.

Should the jury find the South Carolina man guilty, he could face up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to a quarter of a million dollars.

Lawrence robber tried to use blowtorch to break a car wash money machine.

Because petty thefts are just too petty for some robbers, we bring the case of three thieves from Massachusetts who wanted to up their game by breaking a money box using a blowtorch. Seeing that the stubborn box just won’t budge, the Lawrence robbers gave up and left. Authorities are still trying to identify the suspects.

According to the Lawrence Police Department, the force has been mobilized for a state-wide manhunt for three individuals who tried to steal a money machine from Haffner’s Car Wash. The security tape retrieved from the location revealed that the attempted robbery occurred on Sunday, at 3:15 a.m.

The tape shows a 1999 green Honda CRV pulling in the car wash and stopping in front of the money machines. Several seconds later, an individual leaves the vehicle and attempts to remove the machine using a blowtorch.

After a couple of unsuccessful attempts, the man picks up a crowbar and tries to break open the lock. Unfortunately for him, the crowbar seems to be as useful as the blow torch. Running out of patience and time, the individual asks his accomplices to hand him a sledgehammer.

Several hits later, the Lawrence robbers simply give up trying to steal the money machine, head back inside the car and leave the premises. The owner alerted the police after reviewing the overnight security tapes.
