Kristy Lynn Felkins, a woman from Nevada, has been sentenced to five years in prison for attempting to hire a hitman on the dark web with Bitcoin to kill her ex-husband. Felkins pleaded guilty to the use of "interstate commerce facilities in the commission of murder-for-hire" in March. She sent 12 Bitcoin, worth $5,000 at the time, to a site on the Tor network called Besa Mafia in 2016, which claimed to offer murder-for-hire services. However, the site was a scam, and no murder took place.
