Victoria Goodwin, the wife of a popular American actor who hired an assassin to kill him has been arrested.
She is the wife of American actor, Aaron Goodwin.
She allegedly hired a hitman to kill the actor barely two years after their wedding.
She was arrested on March 6 on charges of solicitation to commit murder and conspiracy to commit murder after she allegedly plotted to have her husband killed, according to a TMZ report.
An arrest report obtained by the outlet said that Victoria Goodwin has denied the allegations.
The report cited a text message from Victoria Goodwin to an inmate in a Florida prison.
“Am I bad a person? Because I chose to end his existence. Not divorce,” she allegedly said in the text.
The plot was allegedly hatched in October 2024 and only discovered when correction officers seized the Florida inmate’s contraband phone.
Police said Victoria provided the whereabouts of her husband, who was filming ‘Ghost Adventures’ at the time in California, to the inmate via text, according to TMZ.
Victoria was going to pay the alleged hitman $11,515, police said, with an upfront payment of $2,500.
According to police, she admitted the pair were having “marital problems” but attributed the alleged exchanges with the inmate “daydreaming or fantasizing about being without her husband.”
The couple wed at Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion in 2022.
