A Lawyer Needs An Attorney After Hiring a FBI Special Agent To Kill The Mother of his Children

SAN FRANCISCO - A Massachusetts man has been convicted of hiring an undercover FBI agent to murder the mother of his children, authorities said. 

Allen Gessen, 48, made a deal to pay San Francisco FBI Special Agent in Charge Robert Tripp a total of $50,000 to murder the mother of his children in an attempt to gain custody of his children.

Gessen paid Tripp half of the money as a deposit and told Tripp the remaining will be given after her murder, according to authorities. Initially, he planned on having her deported by bribing an immigration officer.

In these meetings, Gessen told he changed his mind from deportation to murder because it was a "more permanent solution" and a "cheaper way to get rid of her." 

Honestly, I don't know how people still try this. Almost every time you see something about a hitman, it's an FBI agent. Well, I guess some might get away with it, but I doubt it. Typically you'd think these folks hiring the hitmen OR HITWOMEN are dumber than a box of nails but maybe that's not true. Sometimes it's smart folks who are so consumed by hate that they go on Craigslist looking for dastardly devils of people who will kill for a payday. 

Take this dude for instance. He seemingly has a decent amount of money, is a lawyer, and has the ability to just move the fuck on with his life. Sure. His ex-wife might have been a colossal bitch but that shouldn't make you want to go to prison for the rest of your natural life. Premeditated murder or attempted murder ain't exactly gonna get you in the good graces of the judge or jury. Not to mention the fact that LOTS of us have ex-wives that are bitches. I don't use that term lightly but you can't have them killed. Just can't do it. Throw carrot seeds in their yard to make them have to pull weeds all the time? No problem. Hitting their car with the stinky fish under the hood? Fine by me. Dropping the kids off for their weekend, using the bathroom whilst dropping a double-decker larger than anything ole foggy London town can possibly achieve? You betcha. But killing? Cant do it. 

Just let that be a word of caution. If you are trying to hire a hitman, I contend that you simply should not do that. Instead, just beat her in court, have the kid, and snicker with your real partner while the other toils about in obscurity. That's real revenge for everyone involved. It's that simple. Make your ex watch you be more successful in every aspect of life. If that happens, you're the real winner who also isn't in prison for hiring an FBI agent to kill someone.
