A 57-year-old man has been charged with attempting to kill a young girl while hiring a hitman in the United States, ‘True Crime Daily’ reported.
Between May and November 2021, Armando Conceicao allegedly contacted another person named “Individual 1” to ask him to kill the 13-year-old girl.
The two would have met in New Jersey in May 2021, where Mr. Conceicao would have given him the address as well as the photo of the girl living in Texas.
Subsequently, Armando Conceicao would have paid the individual so that he could go to the state where the teenager resides. “Individual 1” would have stayed a week, the time to take pictures of the house and the car of the girl’s father.
Upon his return, Mr. Conceicao allegedly encouraged him to pursue their plan.
In November, the two meet again to discuss their plans.
“Individual 1” allegedly told Armando Conceicao that he knew a “guy” who could act for only “15 or 10 dollars and the problem would be solved”, can we read in the court documents.
Conceicao would have accepted. During their meeting, “Individual 1” allegedly told him: “If we kill a little girl, it’s only a person.”
The bond between the 57-year-old man and the young girl is still unclear.
If Armando Conceicao is convicted, he could be imprisoned for 10 years and will have to pay $250,000.
