My anxiety is all keyed up due to my propensity to read the news, so please indulge me in this bizarro hitman case that is THE BEST HITMAN CASE WE HAVE EVER DONE. It has everything: a doctor, an unsuspecting man, a hitman, Disney adults (no shame), the occult, a death spell, the FBI, a fake assassin, interstate commerce—okay, that last one is kinda blah, but this case has the IT factor, folks.

Side Note: Is there an app that blocks all news? JK *dies inside*

In July 1999, Mary Stetson went out for a much needed night on the town. When she didn’t return home, her kids knew something bad had happened. Their worst fears came true two days later when some folks enjoying a day on the river found a duffle bag holding horrific cargo.

Also, the fake name was Jeffrey/Jeff…sounds like “Jesk” hehehe
