The Alabama Granny Murder-for-Hire Plot
Sandra Hill Treadway loved Trump, dogs, and her grandson—and she was allegedly prepared to do anything to keep her ex-daughter-in-law from getting custody, including having her killed.
An Alabama grandmother is facing prison time after allegedly trying to hire a hitman to slay the mother of her grandson.
Sandra Hill Treadway, 54, of Town Creek, is accused of paying undercover agents $1,500 to kill the woman, who is locked in a custody battle with Treadway’s son, said Lawrence County Sheriff Gene Mitchell.
The bust saw the target fake her own death and revealed the desperate measures the grandma was allegedly willing to take to stop her son’s ex from gaining custody.
“Grandmothers get real protective of their grand-babies, and things weren’t going the best of all to start with,” Mitchell told The Daily Beast. “She wanted her dead.”
Authorities learned Treadway was allegedly seeking a hired gun during a drug investigation sometime last month. It wasn’t revealed, however, how Treadway’s plans came to light or whether she was linked to the drug probe.
Police say Treadway wanted to rub out her son’s ex-girlfriend—who previously faced child abuse charges, records show—because she was trying to get custody of the boy.
