A “fairly unexceptional” Wisconsin woman was convicted of attempted murder Tuesday after she was shockingly hired to kill a British storeowner — and failed only because her gun jammed. Aimee Betro, 45, of West Allis, WI, was part of a slay plot targeting Sikander Ali outside his home in Birmingham, England, on Sept. 7, 2019, UK authorities said.

Aimee Betro covered her face in a niqab as she climbed out of a car in 2019 and tried to shoot a man at point-blank range, prosecutors said.
