Two Montgomery County men were charged in a failed murder-for-hire plot earlier this week, according to prosecutors. Zunir Wilson-Walker, 22, already an inmate at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility, and Jadan Uriah Jones, 20, of Norristown, are accused of planning to kill Wilson-Walker’s ex-girlfriend and mother of his 1-year-old child.

The alleged murder-for-hire plot was discovered when prison officials began investigating Zunir Wilson-Walker, 22, for misuse of the inmate telephone system, prosecutors said. Wilson-Walker allegedly had been communicating with Jaden Jones, 20, of Norristown, to arrange using Instagram to put out the hit.

A Montgomery County jail inmate asked a man to create an Instagram account that offered $15,000, a watch and a car to anyone who could beat up and kill the mother of his child, investigators said.

Two men are charged in a murder-for-hire scheme that authorities say started in the Montgomery County Correctional Facility. Authorities say an inmate there tried to hire someone to kill his ex-girlfriend.
