A hit man for hire was busted by the FBI in New York City with guns, ammo and even a latex mask of an old man after allegedly coming from Maine to plot a killing near Battery Park City.
Federal prosecutors said that Hyunkook Korsiak wanted $50,000 to carry out a killing in midtown, but he ended up getting caught in what the FBI said was a sting operation.
Starting in January and lasting into March, Korsiak met with undercover FBI agents after the Bureau of Prisons intercepted a message he sent that detailed his desire to kill someone for money, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
The FBI said that Korsiak can be heard on a recording accepting $25,000 in cash, and even asking for a police uniform to help further hide his identity when he carries out the hit.
The 41-year-old Korsiak allegedly had several meetings — all of which law enforcement has on video — with undercover agents in Boston; Tarrytown, New York; and Manhattan.
He was unaware that those he was plotting with were with the FBI, and that the intended target (a businessman staying in a hotel) was not real.
