The Video Camera Should Have Tipped You Off

Once again, a man has been arrested for trying to hire a hitman to kill his wife, and once again, the man was arrested because the hit man happened to be an undercover cop who videotaped the whole transaction.

While we at Long Island Nation do not approve of people offing their spouses, we less approve of people who fail to do a job correctly.


Not that we have any experience in this regard (though we might have entertained the idea from time to time), we assume that you'd probably want to perform some due diligence when interviewing your prospective hitman:

1. Ask him if he's ever whacked anyone before. (Make sure you say "whacked"; it means you mean BUSINESS!)

2. Ask him if he has references who can confirm he has the ability to cold-bloodedly murder a total stranger.

3. Ask him what his method is. If it's a garotte, he may be too old-school for you.

4. And in passing, ask him if he, um, HAPPENS TO BE AN UNDERCOVER COP.
