Woman offers $11,000 to have daughter's ex-boyfriend killed, fed to alligators

Melisa Schonfield was upset at the man after a disagreement over the child he and her daughter had together.

Schonfield showed she was serious by agreeing to pay nearly $11,000 to have the man killed. The bad news for her was, she offered that cash to an undercover cop.

Police set up the meeting at a Walmart parking lot where they arrested the Brownville, New York woman.

Reuters reports Jefferson County sheriff's deputy Dave Pustizzi said when the undercover detective asked Schonfield for ideas on getting rid of the body, she suggested giving it to alligators.

The woman faces charges of second-degree conspiracy and second-degree criminal solicitation, but she’s already out of jail after $500,000 was posted for her release.
