A medical doctor pleaded guilty to using the dark web in a murder-for-hire plot against his girlfriend.
The medical doctor started interacting with the dark web marketplace on April 12, 2022, and placed an order to murder his girlfriend. Wan transferred half of the full payment amounting to $8,000 in BTC to an escrow wallet and provided personal details of his girlfriend, including her name, Facebook account, address, and car license plate, to make it easy for the hitman to do their job.
The medical doctor, meanwhile, seemed to grow impatient, wanting the murder to happen as soon as possible. According to the DOJ, Wan sent an additional $1,200 in Bitcoin on May 10, 2022, following BTC’s price drop, to make sure that the escrow account contained the full amount required for the murder job.Unfortunately for the medical doctor, the Federal Bureau of Investigation stopped the murder from happening, with Wan confessing to his sinister move and canceling the order he placed on the dark web marketplace. His sentencing is expected to happen on Jan. 18, 2024.
