Authorities are investigating a Miami millionaire’s alleged plot to kill his estranged wife several times over a period of years by hiring hit men and poisoning her with fentanyl, police say.
“I’ve been in law enforcement for 27 years, and something like this … it seemed like something out of a Hollywood movie, but this was unfortunately real life,” Pinecrest Police Department Chief Jason Cohen told Fox News Digital.
On June 23, Alessandra Pino, 26, called 911 and said somebody had just pointed a gun at her as her mother was pulling into the driveway of their house.
“Oh my gosh. My mom is here,” she told the operator, according to the Miami Herald. “They might have shot her.”
The armed ambush was part of a murder-for-hire plot orchestrated by Alessandra’s father, Miami developer Sergio Pino, against his estranged wife, Tatiana Pino, the FBI and U.S. Attorney’s Office said in a press conference last month.
“[Tatiana] came home from her morning errands, and as she pulled in the driveway, this person pulled up, got out of the car with a firearm,” Cohen said. “Her daughter actually came out of the house and kind of went face to face with this gunman who clearly wasn’t there for the daughter because he, from what I understand, he had the ability to shoot her if he wanted to, and he didn’t.”
