New Court Documents Shed Light On New Year's Eve Killing Of Monique Baugh

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- New court documents indicate the New Year's Eve slaying of a Minneapolis real estate agent may have been part of a murder-for-hire scheme involving a dispute over a recording deal.

Prosecutors have already charged four people in the death of 28-year-old Monique Baugh, who was lured to a phony home showing, kidnapped and found shot to death in a Minneapolis alley.

But now local media outlets are reporting that newly unsealed search warrants reveal a complicated plot involving at least eight people with varying roles. The warrants also show the FBI is involved.

Minneapolis police and the FBI declined to comment.
