A Michigan woman has been charged with using the Craigslist classified-advertisement Web site to find a killer for a romantic rival.

The job title? Freelance. The price? $5,000.

According to authorities, Ann Marie Linscott posted two ads in November and received at least three responses, apparently from people who thought the ad was for a freelance writing gig.

In e-mail exchanges, however, Linscott, 48, told the job seekers that she was looking for "silent assassins" to "eradicate" a 56-year-old Oroville, California, woman named "Carol," according to an affidavit from the FBI agent investigating the case.
