Facebook message leads to murder for hire plot

Heather Boling from Warren County Jail

WARREN COUNTY, OH (FOX19)- A Warren County woman is arrested after authorities say she attempted to pay someone to kill her ex-husband via Facebook.

Heather Boling, 28, was charged with conspiracy to commit aggravated murder.

Investigators say Boling sent a Facebook message to someone she knew in Indianapolis asking for help to kill her ex-husband. That person then contacted authorities to look into the post.

From there, the Warren County Sheriffs Office was notified and acted quickly.

Authorities say Boling sent the Facebook message last week, believed to have started from a dispute over the custody their child.

"He was not to be hurt or scared, she wanted him dead," Lt. Eric Johnson.
