A Florida woman has been arrested for allegedly using a $15,000 PPP loan to hire a hitman to murder the 24-year-old woman she claimed stole her boyfriend.
Le'Shonte Jones, a TSA agent at Miami International Airport, was fatally gunned down in front of her daughter, 3, outside their home at Coral Bay Cove Apartments in the Miami suburb of Homestead, on May 3, 2021. Her toddler was also injured.
Jasmine Martinez, 33, is charged with first degree murder for masterminding the plot.
Police say Martinez took out a $15,000 pandemic relief loan, which she claimed was for her one-woman beauty salon in operation, and then used it to hire Javon Carter, 29, to kill Jones. It is not clear if Martinez ever actually owned a salon.
Carter and Romiel Robinson, 35, who reportedly connected Martinez with the assassin, are also charged with murder. All three could face the death penalty if found guilty.
Jones and Martinez has a long-standing since 2016, when Martinez attacked Jones because she was dating her ex-boyfriend. That case was dropped.
She was arrested again for attacking Jones in 2018 when officers investigating an unrelated matter saw her punching Jones in the face, according to the New York Times.
After a court hearing for that case in February 2020, Martinez's then-boyfriend Kelly Nelson was arrested for punching Jones and stealing her phone and wallet in the courthouse parking lot. He had a firearm on his person.
Martinez wasn't charged in that case. Nelson was jailed for armed robbery and is still awaiting trial, although Jones was the chief witness in that case.
In March of 2021, Jones told police that Martinez had offered her money not to testify against Nelson, (snip)
Just a month before her murder, on April 9, Jones gave her deposition against Nelson.

I reject the premise that these glorfied passenger harassers are anywhere close to professional law agents of any kind.
Its obese, low IQ, “24/7 b1tch face” folks wearing badges and pushing people around.
Glad Javon had a mask on. Maybe he’s vaxxed too.
I hope the judge takes this into account at the sentencing phase.
When TSA agents fly, are their 2” painted razor fingernails confiscated?
I wish I could get a pandemic relief loan, so I can payoff some credit cards.
government covid money financing the killing of government security agents.
Progressive government at its finest.
Yes, I’d lead toward leniency because of that. And he’s black. And it looks like a regular gun instead of an Ar-15 or a ghost gun. I’m more than willing to hear about how his rap career could be affected also.
Uh huh.
$10,000? That leaves $5000 mad money for the jilted lover.
