A Florida woman used money from a pandemic relief loan to hire a hitman to murder a rival who had dated her ex-boyfriend, police said.

Jasmine Martinez allegedly used the federal Paycheck Protection Program to pay a gunman who fatally shot Le’Shonte Jones and wounded her 3-year-old son in a broad daylight attack outside her Miami apartment on May 3, 2021, NBC 6 reported.

Martinez had withdrawn more than $10,000 in the days before the shooting, after she netted $15,000 from the federal government she applied for to help her single-employee beauty salon, according to an arrest warrant cited by the Miami Herald. Police also arrested alleged middle man Romiel Robinson and hitman, Javon Carter, in relation to the murder of Jones, a Transportation Security Administration worker. Carter had allegedly filmed a video of himself counting cash just hours after Jones was shot multiple times, according to arrest warrants.

The boyfriend was warned about the NO GO ZONE but must have thought that was just an internet legend.

Wth? No need to look, your guess is probably right. Shaynteen is her name and she used free government money to hire someone to kill another woman and her child- ,

Now people are using goverment handout payments to hire a hit men? Whats next? Trips to vegas with an ebt card?.

Ok I screwed that up. It’s Jasmine, shes the murderous #$&@#* who hired a hitman with the money from the government small business rescue loan. She had a one employee beauty shop. All apologies.
