The Justice Department issued the following statement.
A Pelahatchie woman pled guilty to using interstate commerce facilities in the commission of a murder-for-hire, announced United States Attorney Darren J. LaMarca and Special Agent in Charge Jermicha Fomby of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Jackson Field Office.
According to court records, Jessica Leeann Sledge, 40, pled guilty this morning before United States District Judge Carlton W. Reeves. Sledge admitted that, between September 2021 and November 1, 2021, in the Southern District of Mississippi, she used facilities of interstate commerce with the intent to hire an assassin to murder an individual in Mississippi. Sledge used the internet, her cell phone and the “Whatsapp” application to arrange a murder-for-hire. Unknown to Sledge, the “hitman” she hired via the internet to commit a murder was in fact an FBI Special Agent. On November 1, 2021, Sledge met in Brandon, Mississippi, with the individual she thought was the assassin she had hired in order to provide an additional payment and to provide additional information concerning her intended victim. The intended victim was ultimately unharmed. Following her arrest, Sledge waived her rights and admitted to her role in the murder-for-hire plot.
Sledge will be sentenced on May 16, 2022, at 9:00 a.m. She faces a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

I remember an earlier thread on this subject. Also remember the folks who posted that they know this lady and there is no way she would have done this. Goes to show....there's a moral here somewhere.
Well dang. Who was she trying to hit?
Darwin award-
If you have the money to pay for a hitman then you can afford to pay for a gangstalking psyop to gaslight your target until they sudoku. Many such cases.
... there's a moral here somewhere.
Let us know when you find it.
"Well dang. Who was she trying to hit?" Her spouse.
Wonder what happens if she doesn't pay her fine? Put her back?
10:59 her husband...I assume ex by now...who is every bit as crazy as she is.
What I want to know is where is the guy she was going to run away with? He has to be complicit somehow. There is more to this story. Stay tuned. Let's just say she didn't get the money to hire the hitman from her bank acct.
Not enough crime without helping people into committing them?
She's a hotty! The prison needs to prepare the honeymoon suite.
Wow. Trying to hire a hit on someone only gets a 10yr max penalty.
So this wasn't some low class shit talk that the law decided was legit ? My mole tells me this gal didn't have a pot to piss in and neither did her husband or lover.....or the husbands lover. They was all poor like me.
10:57 - all of those folks are busy defending the News now
How many years do they give you if you just wish someone would die.
The moral is this:
Never believe somebody who says my son ain't did this.
Never trust somebody who says I know her and this is bogus.
Never believe somebody who claims an FBI investigation is a setup.
Never believe people who are instant detectives on a blog.
Never believe people who say he/she will walk.
@3:55 Tell that to the Duke Lacrosse Team and the West Memphis Three.
You could also add:
Never believe Russia interfered in our election.
Never believe Biden stole our election.
There are guilty people that get away all the time, and innocent people wrongfully convicted.
@3:55 - God Bless You.
@3:06 PM
Who hurt you?
@3:55PM
This is America. “Morals” will not save you.
4:37 I was with you until you put on your tinfoil hat.
I bet she gets a light sentence! Let's make a deal!
never talk to the FBI about doing a crime. They are really good at listening.
Might be another investigation on-going about how she got the money to pay for this. She was the office manager/accountant for a small business in Pelahatchie. I would take a good hard look at those books.
She was to be sentenced mo the ago and all media coverage stopped. Anybody know how long she went away for?
