A woman was arrested after allegedly trying to hire a hitman to kill her toddler from a parody website, NBC6’s Christian Colon reports.
A Miami mother is facing charges after police said she went onto a parody website to request a hitman to kill her toddler son.
According to arrest documents, 18-year-old Jazmin Paez went on rentahitman.com and requested a hitman to kill her 3-year-old before the end of the week.
The website owner, Robert Innes, told NBC6 Miami he receives hundreds of similar solicitations a day. However, this request was very specific. Paez allegedly sent pictures of the boy and the exact location of where the child was going to be.
Innes said the website was once for a cybersecurity company, but over the years he’s received random requests for services. In April, a Air National Guardsman was arrested for allegedly using the website to apply to be a hitman.
Many of the requests are people seeking fake services, but Paez’s request looked too real, Innes said.
"The ability to research names and addresses and verify the intended target lived in a particular address. That to me is a red flag. If that information is corroborated, to me that is something that needs to be looked at and that’s why I referred it, “ said Innes.
Innes said he called the Miami-Dade Police Department three times to try and report the incident to their non-emergency number, but police kept referring him to CrimeStoppers.
Innes initially said on Wednesday that he contacted CrimeStoppers USA - not affiliated with Miami-Dade CrimeStoppers - who he said warned they would send a cease-and-desist letter to him.
On Thursday, Inness corrected his statement and said he never contacted CrimeStoppers USA or Miami-Dade CrimeStoppers on this case. He said he only called the Miami-Dade Police non-emergency number and on the third try that’s when a detective was assigned.
As for the threat of a cease-and-desist letter Innes clarified it was CrimeStoppers USA who emailed him the cease-and-desist warning earlier this year about other crimes he’s reported in the past.
In response, CrimeStoppers USA Chair Chris Cameron told NBC6 “After repeatedly telling Robert we were not interested in sponsoring his site, we asked him to not contact us about that again. We work with the community to help solve crime therefore rentahitman does not meet our values and mission as they try to entice the bad guys to reach out to them."
Innes said he is thankful his report was eventually taken seriously and appreciated what Miami-Dade Police did.
Paez was arrested Tuesday on charges of soliciting murder and unlawful use of a communications device. She was given a $15,000 bond and ordered to stay away from the child.
Family members told NBC6 the toddler is safe and with relatives. The Florida Department of Children and Families was notified, according to records.
How sad. 18 year old mother, 3 year old son, do the math. An immature mother to be sure.
I KNEW I didn’t need to look.
What the heck? How cruel some people are.
Please explain?
What a weird story.
Dimms will feign outrage but if she killed this child three years earlier, they’d throw rose petals in front of her.
“She was given a $15,000 bond and ordered to stay away from the child.”
She gets paid to stay away from the child now? /s
LOL. This one rates some kind of stupid.
Just shoot her right now. I don’t need white knight tradcon simps defending her and rationalizing for her. You wouldn’t for an 18 year old male.
noo they would not. Nobody gets a prize for murdering a kid.
when you exaggerate you seem stupid.
That is one awfully strange looking person! More like a Picasso painting in real life.
Poor kid - I hope he never sees his “mother” again.
No joke, the first thought that crossed my mind was, “Just shoot her.”
Agree with everything you said.
You couldn't do the math and see he was talking about the mother aborting the child before he was born?
CAREFULLY read the post again.
so much for that motherly instinct...
45 IQ tops.
A Fool For Love
On Monday, Miami-Dade authorities arrested Gamaliel Soza, also 18, in connection with the alleged plot. According to an arrest affidavit reviewed by Law&Crime, a search of Paez’s cellphone revealed conversations between the two teenagers in which Soza appears to have indicated that her child was the only thing that stood between them.
“The kid is the problem, I hope you see that,” Soza reportedly said, according to the affidavit. “All I ever wanted, was to free you, I told you about the kid, you won’t do anything.”
“You do it, and I’ll think about coming back,” Soza also allegedly said in messages to Paez.
When you can’t figure this out, you ARE stupid.
Lock her up!
yes of course! he implied if she had had an abortion ( instead of trying to have him killed 3 years later) she’d get some sort of prize, and i don’t believe that is true.
that’s all i was saying. when people exaggerate, i lose interest immediately.
