A US woman's involvement in a UK family feud took a dark turn when she was hired to carry out a murder using a 9mm gun that jammed, saving the intended victim's life. A plot that began with a fight at a clothing shop escalated into a planned assassination, leading to the capture of the woman in Armenia. The woman, a graphic design graduate from the US, denied her involvement, but was found guilty of conspiracy to murder. Two other men involved in the plot have already been jailed, and she awaits sentencing.
