Two New Mexico men arrested in a murder-for-hire plot were planning to strangle and castrate pop star Justin Bieber and his bodyguard, according to KRQE-TV.

Mark Staake, 41, and his 23-year-old nephew Tanner Ruane were arrested late last month in Vermont. They were accused of plotting to kidnap and kill four people on behalf of Dana Martin, who is serving two life sentences for the 2000 rape and murder of a Vermont girl in 200. Staake met Martin in Las Cruces state prison.

Tuesday, KRQE, citing investigators, said the Canadian performer and his bodyguard were two of the targets.

Vermont police arrested Mark Staake, of Albuquerque, N.M., for probation violation Nov. 19 at a Canadian border crossing. He is accused of plotting to kill and castrate four people, including Justin Bieber.

A New Mexico police affidavit states Staake and Ruane allegedly planned to first travel from New Mexico to Vermont and kill two witnesses to Martin's crime, then hit Bieber.

The plot allegedly was planned for when Bieber performed sold-out concerts at Madison Square Garden in New York City on Nov. 27 and Nov. 28. Police said the 45-year-old Martin was obsessed with Bieber and has a tattoo of him on one of his legs.

Police said Martin directed the would-be hit men to strangle Bieber and the others with a paisley tie, Martin's "calling card," KRQE said. But he apparently changed his mind and ratted out Staake and Ruane before they could act.

Staake was arrested in Vermont on outstanding warrants, but police let Ruane go. Police recorded phone calls Ruane made to Martin from New York, telling him that he was "disappointed he couldn't carry out the murders," KRQE writes.

New York police arrested Ruane, who had pruning shears and what the CBS affiliate describes as "murder tools."

The police affidavit states there was a $2,500 bounty for each of Bieber's testicles, the Toronto Star says.

To keep him from reproducing. Also, the prison where Martin is being kept may be using Bieber as physiological torture like they do at Gitmo so he is just trying to end that.

Well if they planned to kill him then the castration would've been over doing it if they wanted to keep him from reproducing...

but if he's murdered, how would that even help :rofl:

Be forced to listen to the same music over and over again... you'll want to murder the person who made it. It won't stop the torture, but at least you will have gotten revenge on the person that made what was being used to torture you.

Well if they planned to kill him then the castration would've been over doing it if they wanted to keep him from reproducing...

hmm how about.. murder to keep him from reproducing... castration and balls as proof that you are the one that did it.

remove ovaries... I think female castration is technically considered female circumcision in the middle eastern / African part of the world though

Yeah i know what Female circumcision is. I worked with young people under threat of harm for a long time.

It's actually horrible what they do. We'd generally have to help girls as young as 12 who were smuggled back to countries such as Pakistan and forcefully circumcised, often with bits of sharpened Coke can etc horrible horrible thing.

Kinda ruined my own joke really :p

Anybody thats as famous as Bieber, eg Obama, Britney etc, somebody out there, somewhere in the world is going to want you dead. Some come to light for the rest of us to find out about, majority probably dont as they dont follow their feelings up. We live in the kind of world where this is ALWAYS going to be the case, unfortunately.

Holy crap look at all the jealous little boys in the forums. It's funny how petty someone can become when they know their gfs daughters and wives would leave them at the curb for one night with bieber. And it probably throws the extra stick in there that he makes more then all of you combined. Must really suck to hate a complete stranger instead of just admitting your life sucks.

a bounty for testicles? good greif why?

Because there's a LOT of very twisted malignant sociopaths out there who take pleasure in violence, and doing it to a public figure adds to the thrill - especially if it becomes a media circus.

As Alfred Pennyworth said in The Dark Knight: "some men just want to watch the world burn." Others want to pour the gas & throw the match.

P. S. Please include Colin Mcgregor :p

or you could have the hitmen take biebers testicles like they planned give them to you so you have a pair and come do it yourself :p

    • Nvidia GeForce NOW gains support for seven more games as discounts continue by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There's a brand-new update rolling out to Nvidia's GeForce NOW streaming service, and like every week, that means more games have received support on the platform. This week's drop has additions like Aphelion and Pro Cycling Manager 26 attached to it. Don't forget that the GeForce NOW summer sale is still active too. This limited-time offer drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. At the same time, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping the price by $70 from the original $199.99. Moreover, Nvidia reiterated that support for GOG single sign-in and game library is incoming this summer, joining stores like Steam, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, and Xbox. "Connect supported game store accounts and stream titles with GeForce RTX power. Games that include cloud-save functionality help keep progress intact across devices," added the company. "Start a game on one screen, pick up where playtime left off on another, and spend less time managing installs and storage space." Here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: Embers of the Uncrowned Demo (New release on Steam, available 13) Pro Cycling Manager 26 (New release on Steam, available June 15) Aphelion (Steam) Citizen Sleeper (Epic Game Store, Free from June 18-25) Megastore Simulator (Steam) OPERATOR (Steam) Super Meat Boy 3D (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month, with extra time being purchasable in chunks.
