Doctor paid $19,000 for husband's slaying

A Queens N.Y. doctor paid her uncle nineteen thousand dollars to kill her estranged husband in front of their daughter. Mazoltuv Borukhova is now being charged with first degree murder.
Prosecutors are accusing Borukhova of paying her uncle over $19,000 to kill her husband in front of their daughter.
The victim was a 34 year old orthodontist and he was shot three times in his chest at a playground where he was planning on visiting his daughter.
Borukhova pleaded not guilty and now her uncle is facing the same charges as she is.
The uncle was arrested after his fingerprints were found on a makeshift gun silencer made from a bleach bottle at the crime scene. Authorities matched his fingerprints because he was arrested back in 1994 for evading a subway fare.
Queens district attorney said that the uncle spoke with Borukhova twice on the phone and met at her medical office after the shooting. A source said that the two had 90 telephone conversations before the shooting.
I do not understand how this woman went through with this and actually wanted her kid to watch her father get killed right in front of her eyes. This woman should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
