A woman in Pennsylvania is accused of telling an undercover officer to murder a woman and teenager.
Authorities have charged 56-year-old Marilyn Zhou with two counts of first-degree attempted murder and one count of third-degree money laundering in the case, New Jersey 101.5 reported on December 23.
In a social media post on December 24, the Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office shared a mugshot of the suspect and detailed what happened:

The office said that a few weeks ago, its Special Investigation Unit (SIU) “received information that Zhou was looking for assistance with a murder for hire,” the document read:
On Sunday morning, December 18, 2022, Zhou met with an undercover officer in Trenton, New Jersey, where she advised the officer she wanted them to murder her ex-husband’s new wife. Zhou provided the officer with two color photographs of the victim, $21,000 in cash, rubber nitrile gloves and a towel to carry out the murder. She also told the undercover officer that if the victim’s 13-year-old daughter was present at the time of the murder, she should also be murdered. Zhou stated she would pay the undercover officer an additional $20,000 once the murder was complete.
Officials quickly took Zhou into custody after the meeting.
Hours later, the SIU and Pennsylvania State Police executed a search warrant at the woman’s home in Chadds Ford, where they seized $18,000 and found items she allegedly told the officer to use while carrying out the murder.
Meanwhile, a poll from October found the majority of voters lay blame at the feet of “woke politicians” for the crime wave sweeping across President Joe Biden’s (D) America.

Per the Harvard/Harris poll, 64 percent of voters said those politicians are responsible for rising crime in communities across the nation, according to Breitbart News.
In addition, Americans are “more likely now than at any time over the past five decades to say there is more crime in their local area than there was a year ago,” Gallup reported later that same month.
“The 56% of U.S. adults who report an increase in crime where they live marks a five-percentage-point uptick since last year and is the highest by two points in Gallup’s trend dating back to 1972,” the article reads.
