The Review-Journal reported this week that a Clark County jail inmate tried to hire another inmate to murder several public officials:
Authorities allege [Daimon] Hoyt, 42, offered to pay a fellow county jail inmate $30,000 to kill District Judge Michelle Leavitt [pictured left], county prosecutor Sandra DiGiacomo and Las Vegas police detective Bradley Nickell.
Hoyt [pictured right]appeared in court on Thursday for a hearing on alleged murder-for-hire attempt:
With the misspelled message "Stop the coruption" scrawled on his arms, the man accused of plotting to kill a judge, a prosecutor and a police detective appeared in District Court on Thursday morning wearing shackles and a grin.
Why try to murder the Judge and Prosecutor? Hoyt thought he would get a tough sentence from Judge Leavitt for the burglary charge that put him in jail in the first place.
Even without the misspelling, this guy sounds like a genius.
DiGiacomo is no genius either. Maybe they should stop the corruption.
ReplyDeleteAm I the only person who thinks there is something here that doesn't pass the smell test?
ReplyDelete"Pass the smell test" as in does anyone else think Daimon Hoyt is being set up? and the Judge and/or the Prosecutor are faking the evidence that he attempted to put a hit on Judge Leavitt?
ReplyDeleteNot really. I guess I have no reason to doubt the Judge/Prosecutor
I guess anonymous and Legal Eagle need to get a clue as to what really happened. Apparently the jury got it right. Guilty on 3 counts of solicitation of murder. The smell test is did the guy do it? Notes were passed that were in his handwriting that clearly proved he was soliciting the murders. One of the notes said go ahead with killing Leavitt and Nickell. Hold on DiGiacomo. He wanted the hold placed on DiGiacomo because he thought he had found someone that would do that one for free.
ReplyDeleteConspiracy theory busted.
