While there have been no charges in the case, the details were included in a search warrant that was recently unsealed in federal court and obtained by Knewz.com.
In February 2020, the FBI received an anonymous tip from someone who claimed to operate a site on the dark web that offered hitmen for hire, according to the warrant. The site was a scam and there were no actual hitmen.
