Air National Guardsman charged for seeking hitman on RentAHitman.com

A 21-year-old Air National Guardsman, Josiah Ernesto Garcia, has been charged with the use of interstate facilities in the commission of murder-for-hire after attempting to find work as an assassin on a parody website, RentAHitman.com. Garcia submitted a resume that touted his employment with the Air National Guard and indicated he had the nickname “Reaper” for his marksmanship. An undercover FBI agent then began communicating with Garcia, setting up a plan for Garcia to kill someone for $5,000. Garcia was arrested by FBI agents and faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted.
