An Ohio high school staff member accused of attempting to hire a student to kill her husband has been charged with felony conspiracy, according to a criminal complaint.
Stephanie Demetrius, 44, allegedly approached a student at Academy for Urban Scholars in Columbus, Ohio, on March 26 and “solicited the student to kill her husband for $2,000,” according to an affidavit.
Demetrius gave the student a $250 "down payment" and details about her husband, including that he works from home and times when he would be in the house alone.
The affidavit stated that she also advised the student that "they don't care about her neighbors," when the student asked if they would be able to hear the gunfire, according to a phone call between Demetrius and the student that the police obtained.
The student's mother discovered messages between the two and went to the police with the student, police told NBC affiliate WCMH.
