Hit man wasnt a hit

Sheriff’s deputies arrested novelist Nancy Mancuso Gelber, 53, in Bryan, Texas, after she had allegedly arranged a hit on her husband. The “hit man,” of course, was an undercover officer.Gelber said she had walked in on the husband romancing with one of her friends, and the couple were in the process of divorcing (complicated by his having removed her from his health insurance just as she was scheduled for expensive surgery). Gelber is the author of the 2010 crime thriller, “Temporary Amnesia,” and told the “hit man” that she was quite familiar with investigative procedures (though obviously poor at spotting undercover officers).
