[Excerpts] Enid Collins is charged with trying to set up a murder for hire. The target, her ex-husband who lives in Virginia Beach. Collins is a former Virginia Beach Sheriff's Deputy, and now lives in Georgia. Federal authorities say she wanted to have her ex-husband killed at this Cracker Barrel, north of Charlotte... The two were scheduled to meet there last week so that the couple's kids could go visit their mother. But luckily it never happened. Collins was arrested in Georgia and is currently being held in North Carolina... Court documents say she was willing to pay $1,500 dollars and even pay for the gun to do the deed. In late May, court documents show the cooperating witness was with investigators when Collins called to hash out the details of the hit. She's quoted as saying "I don't care if it's at Cracker Barrel, wherever. Just after I leave." The witness then asked about whether plans to kill her ex-husband's current wife were still on. Court documents show Collins replied "Yeah, just wait. You gotta do things in stages. Bam, bam. Can't do it that way, look too suspicious." [Full article here]
