Idiots, Murderers & Bears! Oh, My! Man Planned to Kill Ex-Girlfriend Dressed in Bear Hide

An Upstate New York man has been arrested for conspiracy to commit murder by hiring an acquaintance to off his ex-girlfriend... dressed up in a bear skin! When the man, Carl Garner, discovered that killing a bear and skinning it isn't as easy as it sounded, he approached a friend to see if he would run over his ex with his car and if that didn't work, to slash her throat with a piece of glass. The would-be murderer was skimpy with the money though, only handing over $500 to the pal to commit the deed. The former pal wasn't impressed with the money offered, so he went to the police and turned the guy in!
