conspiracy to murder

Planned killing scheme

Conspiracy to murder is the criminal offense of agreeing with one or more people to kill someone.

The crime is complete once the agreement is made—no one actually has to die.

Prosecutors must prove the defendants intended to carry out the killing, not merely discussed it: She was charged with conspiracy to murder her husband for the insurance money.
