A mum has been jailed after she tried to hire a hitman to kill a colleague she had had a fling with.
Helen Hewlett, 44, was jailed for seven-and-a-half years today after she paid Bitcoin worth over £20,000 to a website on the dark web called ‘Online Killers Market’, all in an effort to get Paul Belton, 50, murdered in what would appear to be an accident.
It came after the pair had a brief fling, before Mr Belton spurned the married mum-of-five’s advances.
