SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) — Nine people in Puerto Rico have been charged in a murder-for-hire plot that authorities say targeted a federal correctional officer killed in a drive-by shooting.
The U.S. Justice Department said Friday that Lt. Osvaldo Albarati Casanas was targeted because he was investigating contraband smuggling at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Guaynabo.
Albarati was killed in February 2013 as he drove home on a busy highway that was shut down for about eight hours after the shooting.
Three of the suspects are accused of hiring hit men and financing the killing.
Albarati worked 11 years for the Federal Bureau of Prisons and was previously a Puerto Rico police officer. He had a wife and three children.
