Stay classy, Pinellas County!

The people involved in this story just get crazier and crazier.

Edward James Graziano, father of the man injured in the Nick Bollea automobile crash, has been arrested and accused of plotting to kill his estranged wife Debra.

According to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, the arrest came as a result of a two-and-a-half month investigation in which Graziano is alleged to have held multiple meetings and negotiations with a tipster and an undercover detective posing as go-between to a hit man in order to solicit the murder of his wife.

Authorities said he later paid to have the crime committed.

According to detectives Graziano, 53, paid $1,100 in cash, another $1,000 in a personal check and a $13 gift card to Westshore Pizza to have his estranged wife murdered.

The Criminal Investigative Division began its investigation in mid-December.

Detectives believe the motive was divorce/financial related. They also say Graziano wanted Debra killed in an automobile accident.

Waaaaait, so he was going to pay $2100 and a pizza to have his wife killed??? Who the hell ACCEPTED that offer? I know the economy’s rough, guys, but this is just silly. Professional killers should totally be charging more than $2100 and a pizza! No wonder this all got bungled. You get what you pay for, Mr. Graziano!
