“Kill Briggs.” sounds like pretty awful code to me.

From the article, the Rabbi really is just a Rabbi:

Speaking to local media, the man dismissed the allegation that he was contacted to carry out a hit. He told The Orlando Sentinel, “I’m 75 years old, blind in one eye and have a cataract in the other. I don’t think I’d hire me as a killer.”

Too bad! It’s hard to see how the plan could have failed if actually carried out. Certainly the district attorney would have dropped the charges if the judge was murdered.

Convict: But they told me you were the best knife-man in the business!
Rabbi: That’s… not the business they were referring to.

We should never forget or forgive Ponce de Leon, the original Florida Man. I mean, he started this whole shitshow.

For a split second I thought that photo was Trump’s hair photoshoped onto Obama’s face.

Here’s another article that makes it much clearer that “Kill Briggs” wasn’t the code. He supposedly gave his mom a bunch of numbers and they were code for “Kill Briggs.” That makes FAR more sense than the jumble of gobbletygook in the People Mag piece.

I can hear the defense now…

“You don’t understand your honor he wanted to circumcise someone”.

That’s quite a mother. Ma Barker would be pleased, if she wasn’t so pissed off.
