MESA, Ariz. --A 22-year-old woman was arrested after authorities say she tried to hire someone to kill another woman whose photo appeared on her boyfriend's MySpace.com Web page.

Heather Michelle Kane was booked Tuesday for investigation of conspiracy to commit murder, Mesa Detective Jerry Gissel said.

She was arrested after she met an undercover Mesa police detective at a grocery store, gave the officer $400 and offered to pay an additional $100 once the woman had been killed, according to court records.

The records say Kane gave the undercover officer photographs taken from her boyfriend's social networking Web page of the woman she wanted killed. She also requested a photo of the woman's dead body.

$500? Apparently even buttonmen are feeling the pinch in our supercharged labor market.

So many questions!

Like: How did this woman find this 'undercover' officer in the first place? Did he solicit her?

A little on the cheap side too.

Offering $500 for a murder? That's what she gets for hiring discount assassins..

She probably put up a "Help Wanted" poster at Wal-Mart.

An 80% down payment/deposit seems pretty high. I never give Guido more than 50% up front.

And it seems that they always end up calling an undercover! Is there a Hitmen R Us phone listing in every town that goes right to the PD?

It was $500 up front, $500 after the fact, so a total cost of $1000

The article says $400 up front, $100 later for a picture of the corpse. Not $1000 total.
