When King Henry II asked, “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?”, his minions knew exactly what he meant.

I read somewhere that in the Mafia, the "capo" doesn't actually assign anyone to do a hit, and they don't "bring in" outside experts to whack someone who's well protected.
The process is more along the lines of this: the boss makes it known that he would be very pleased if a certain person was to be removed from the ranks of the living, and whomever was able to make that happen would receive the boss's eternal and substantial gratitude.
