Jackie Shroyer allegedly conspired with her lover and hired hitmen to kill her husband, Beau Shroyer, in a premeditated attack.

  • Beau Shroyer, a missionary from Minnesota, was killed in Angola on October 25 in what police describe as a planned murder orchestrated by his wife, Jackie Shroyer.
  • Jackie Shroyer is accused of hiring their security guard, Bernardino Isaac Elias, and two other men to carry out the murder for a promised $50,000.
