Two Texas Lawyers Tried to Hire Undercover Cop to Kill an Ex-Husband
“A well-known Waco, Texas defense lawyer, who once ran for county district attorney, sat behind bars on Saturday after a local police sting allegedly caught him plotting to kill a colleague’s ex-husband using a hitman,” reports Blake Montgomery and Olivia Messer in MSN News’ Crime.
“Seth Andrew Sutton has long held an upstanding reputation in Waco as a criminal defense lawyer, successfully defending clients in high-profile cases.”
“The would-be killer … was actually an undercover policeman all along, and police arrested Sutton and Tijerina on Friday under felony charges of conspiracy to commit capital murder.”
