> people selling murder for hire on the Darknet.

It's always a honeypot, no one besides local junkies and people with personal beefs will do a murder for hire that a working person can afford.

There are people who are dumb enough to go to prison after paying like $1k-$10k for a "murder", like after a flight and hotel how much are you expecting your would-be assassin to make?

It exists in organized crime but all the cases I've read about have that one thing in common: The killer worked for organized crime. And they were never fully unaligned either, always for the same families or groups that are loosely allied.
