A North Texas woman will spend the next nine years in prison after paying someone more than $10,000 in Bitcoins to murder her boyfriend's lover.
A North Texas woman was sentenced to nine years in prison after using Bitcoin to pay for a murder.Federal prosecutors said 58-year-old Michelle Murphy of Bedford used the dark web to find a hitman for her boyfriend’s lover."To my knowledge, it's the first time this has happened in Texas, but it's happened plenty of places all over the United States," said former U.S. attorney Richard Roper.
"They're able to pick up the trail of these criminals trying to solicit to murder somebody," said Roper.Investigators were able to identify Murphy by following her digital footsteps.Records reveal cryptocurrency ATMs were used three times by Murphy to convert cash to Bitcoin. She then used that Bitcoin to murder a woman who was in a romantic relationship with her boyfriend, according to the complaint.Agents confronted Murphy with her boyfriend at DFW Airport.
