it's good to be family!

TAVARES, Florida (AP) -- A couple tried to hire a hit man to kill their three grandchildren and daughter-in-law to stop them from testifying against their son in his rape trial, authorities said.

The couple, ages 60 and 59, were charged with four counts each of criminal conspiracy to commit murder. They were being held without bond.
Police said the pair initially offered $100 to an undercover sheriff's deputy to kill their son's wife, their 10-year-old granddaughter, two step-grandchildren, ages 14 and 16, and the family dog.

Ah, ain't life grand...if you can't love the one your with (or molest them and try to get away with it) maybe you can have your folks off them! "Daddy, I'm a bit too drunk and lazy to kill them nuisances, do ya think you and mom would do it for me? I'll throw a hundred bucks in it for your trouble...and don't forget to get that damn annoying dog too! Just don't get any blood on my lazyboy recliner! And, if mom drinks my beer make sure she refills the frig!" "Oh yeah, what we gonna have for supper Sunday after church- and don't say dog!"
