The assassination Kim Jong-nam is a particularly crazy example of this. Two women were put up to what they thought was, allegedly a harmless prank.

unless you know the target and trust the people asking you to do the 'prank' this is not a harmless 'prank'. if they thought they had rehearsed with the target then i think they have a strong defence but i think they were extremely lucky to have avoided a murder conviction. what they were doing is assault even if it was not poison unless they had the consent of the target.
