A shocking video shows a former New Jersey woman plotting to hire a hitman to kill her husband.

Julia Merfeld, who now lives in Michigan, wanted her husband killed and she wasn’t shy when it came to setting up the hit, police said. But it was all caught on camera. Sitting in the front seat of a car rigged up by police for video, she calmly says: ” I don’t want it to look like an actual motive, like a murder case”

The 21-year-old Merfeld, who had moved from Keyport, N.J. to Muskegon, Mich., plotted to have her husband killed back in April. She met twice with man whom she thought was a hitman. He asked for specifics.

“What I’m gonna need is an address from you so I know how to get there. I’m gonna need a picture of him so I get the right guy.” On the video she shyly says “Okay” and giggles.

But what Merfeld didn’t know put her behind bars. The hitman was really an undercover Michigan State Police officer who asked more incriminating questions including how she wanted him to do it.

“Whatever is easiest for you.” she said on the video. “If you can get him outside, that would be great. But if you absolutely can’t I would understand.” She went on to say, “cause it would be messy in the house.”

Cops say Merfeld, who has two kids with her husband, wanted to cash in on his $400,000 life insurance policy. She first went to a former co-worker Carlos Ramos, who eventually turned her in. She offered to pay the hit man $50,000 in installments to whack her husband.

“It’s easier than divorcing him.” she told the undercover. “I don’t have to worry about the judgement of my family. I don’t have to worry about breaking his heart.”

Merfeld could have gotten life behind bars if convicted but agreed to a plea deal under which she will get a minimum sentence of six years in jail when she is sentenced July 30.

Her husband doesn’t think she should go to jail.
