Overview
- Edward LePore, 45, was arrested after a weeks-long investigation at the Cheshire County Jail in Keene, New Hampshire.
- Court documents say LePore asked another inmate if he knew a hitman and discussed paying $50,000 per killing by selling his house and his mother's business.
- Investigators report the cooperating inmate alerted authorities and helped record conversations that supported the charges.
- Police say the intended targets were a woman in Maine LePore claimed was his wife and the man she was married to, but the woman told investigators she was never married to LePore.
- LePore, jailed on a probation violation, is being held on preventive detention, and police ask anyone with information to contact Detective Don Lundin at 603-357-9820.
