From my extensive experience in this area (true crime podcasts lol), if your hitman is either quoting a reasonable price or offering a payment plan, they're a cop.

Unless you're in South Africa, in which case you can legitimately walk in to a bar and hire a murderer for a very reasonable price.

And the ones asking for payment up front will enjoy the free money. What, were you going to get a receipt for that?

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Seriously man, it's a good price, and I have a plan setup with Affirm for payments, you can spread it out over at least a year.

LMAO ok now you got me curious what consists of a reasonable price? If the guy I was first married to who beat the shit out of me and raped me how much would that be?

Getting kinda specific here...

Edit: really sorry you went through that, but I hope you're not thinking about making a rash decision.

[–] Don_Dickle@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh no been through therapy for it and left the state. Was just kind of curious if someone would kill a abuser/rapist at less of a rate than like an ex husband who is well off.

[–] thejoker954@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

It would all depend on the hired killer. Even the most horrible of people tend to have a 'code' they will follow.

So what is a realistic price in a western country? And what about those darknet hitmans?

[–] python@programming.dev 11 points 10 months ago

Honestly, anything over 30k wouldn't really be worth it. Way easier to get a nice vacation and some therapy sessions for the same money instead of being that mad at someone.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

From what I've heard that also applies to some South American countries. But in any developed country it's basically unthinkable to do something like this without getting caught.

in south africa they'll murder racists like you for free πŸ˜‰

[–] Trebuchet@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Racist? You might legitimately be the stupidest, and most presumptuous, person I've yet encountered. Seriously, fuck off back to Reddit, you utter cunt.

[–] Aria@lemmygrad.ml 0 points 10 months ago

Gets called a racist, immediately starts using slurs.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 2 points 10 months ago

Geography and history is not racism.
