'All a game:' Accused in San Antonio murder-for-hire plot, woman says it was a ruse
trying to hire a hit man to kill her boyfriend’s sister in 2017, testified in her trial Friday that she was told it was “all a game” and was ordered to follow a detailed plan concocted by an informant police were relying on.
She thought no one was going to get killed, she told the jury through an interpreter, adding, “I’ve never had the intent for anyone to die.”When prosecutor Nicole Phillips asked Navarro-DePaz if the whole plot was about someone gaining citizenship, Navarro-DePaz said that is what the informant told her.
Navarro-DePaz, an Austin businesswoman who also owns properties in San Antonio, testified Thursday and Friday that “Katy” demanded monthly payments in a protection racket enforced through months of threats and violence directed against her and her children. Testimony has established that the woman Navarro-DePaz told the undercover officer she wanted killed was Anayeli Mendoza Flores, the sister of her boyfriend at the time. He is no longer romantically involved with her but still a friend, Navarro-DePaz said.
