Guilty Plea Made in Muskegon Murder-for-Hire; Husband Wants No Jail

MUSKEGON, Mich. - Muskegon woman Julia Charlene Merfeld, 21, pleaded guilty Thursday to soliciting the murder of her 27-year-old husband, according to Muskegon County Prosecutor Timothy Maat.

Merfeld's husband told the court he wants her to serve no jail time for the crime; however, Chief Muskegon County Circuit Judge William C. Marietti wasn't as forgiving. He agreed to cap the sentence at six years when he sentences her on July 30 because of the victim's wishes.

During questioning by the judge, Merfeld admitted to meeting with a man to solicit the murder between April 5 and April 10, according to Maat. She later learned that he was an undercover Michigan State Police officer. She confessed to police after her arrest that she wanted her husband killed so she could collect a $400,000 life insurance policy.

[B]Caught on Tape: Woman Hires "Hit Man" to Kill Husband

MUSKEGON, Mich. - Muskegon woman Julia Charlene Merfield, 21, pleaded guilty June 28 to soliciting the murder of her 27-year-old husband.

Fox 17 obtained video of the encounter, where Merfield talked with a man in April more than once that she believed to be a hit man. She later learned that the man was an active undercover police officer, and was taken into custody.

Merfield-s husband asked that Chief Muskegon County Circuit Judge William C. Mariett sentence her to no jail time, but Mariett said she will get at least six years when she is sentenced July 30.

Part 2:

In Merfeld-s second meeting with the undercover officer, they talk more at length about how she wants him to kill her husband, and she pays him $100 as a down payment.

"When I first decided to do this, it's not that we weren't getting along," she says in the video. "As terrible as it sounds, it was easier than divorcing him. I didn't have to worry about the judgment of my family, I didn't have to worry about breaking his heart."

How do these people end up with an undercover cop on the other end? Do they advertise their need for a hitman in the local newspaper or something?

In this case, her co-worker carlos ratted her out and went to the police after she asked him to be the hitman. Thats usually what happens, i think.

I still don't understand why her husband didn't want her to go to jail. Holy shit, dude. If someone tried to hire a hitman to take me out, i'd want their fucking head on a platter.
