Cops: Woman Uses Ex's Credit Card for Hit Man
Thu May 19, 8:21 PM ET
OSWEGO, N.Y. - A 25-year-old woman was charged with trying to hire a man to kill her ex-husband, and police say she used one of his credit cards to pay for the would-be hit man's flight from Australia.
Police Capt. Michael Dehm said it was a report of an unauthorized $2,824 credit card charge from the ex-husband that led authorities to Terra L. Endres, 25.
Endres was arrested Monday and charged with second-degree criminal solicitation and first-degree identity theft, both felonies. She was being held in the Oswego County Jail in lieu of $5,000 bail.
Keith Costello said he and Endres were married in 1999 and divorced in 2002. The couple had two children, who are now in Costello's custody.
Dehm said he did not know how Endres and the man from Australia became acquainted, but that the two had been communicating by phone and the Internet for months.
Oswego Police worked with the FBI on the case. The man from Australia was detained when he arrived in Los Angeles. Authorities declined to name the man, saying their investigation was continuing.
If you use your ex-husband's credit card to hire a hit man.... Here's your sign.
Wow, talk about adding insult to injury!!
LOL!
That sure was a cold one there. And it would be one charge he'd never see.
This is almost as cold as the woman who dug up her husband's grave and drank the beer that was buried with him.

Who gets custody of the frequent flyer miles?
My wife's use of credit cards has been slowly killing me for years.
Doesn't this dummy ever watch any cop shows on TV? They ALWAYS check out credit card purchases in murder investigations.
Costello is probably thanking his lucky stars that it did not take any longer than 2 years to figure out that he was married to a really stupid woman. Ladies, pardons please, there are stupid men too. If the woman was this stupid with his credit card, makes me wonder just how dumb she was with other aspects of the relationship. Hope she didn't pass those stupid genes to her offspring.
...his credit card charge, wouldn't that be considered as involentary suicide?
