People have some really screwed-up families....
Florida Woman Tried to Have Man Killed for Giving Grandkids Lice A Florida woman is charged with trying to hire a hitman to kill a homeless man who she said was giving her grandkids lice....
Instead of carrying out the plan, however, the would-be assassin turned her in to the cops.
[Pamela King] Vanorsdale[, 50, of New Smyrna Beach] called her ex-son-in-law to ask him to "pop" the intended victim with a gun and ammo [she] would provide.
Referring to a 22-year-old homeless man she said was having an affair with one of her married daughters, Vanorsdale asked the would-be gunman, identified as Daniel E. Dionne of Daytona Beach, to "get him out of here" because the man was "messing with" her grandchildren, according to the affidavit.
Dionne was to "pop him in the head and chest" and "throw him off a bridge" - because ... Vanorsdale believed no one would be overly concerned if it looked as if the man had committed suicide.
Dionne agreed with the plan - without telling Vanorsdale that he was recording their conversations, police said.
According to investigators, Dionne turned on Vanorsdale because he suspected he was being set up. Police said he is a convicted felon who is in a dispute with his ex-wife - another of Vanorsdale's daughters - for custody of their children.
So one daughter is having an affair with a homeless man with lice, and another daughter has divorced a felon. Pamela has not been the most successful mother. I think Dionne's suspicions were well founded. I feel sorry for the grandkids. (You need a license to have a dog....)
