....is a bizarre castration plot. From CBS:

A Delaware man has been arrested after being accused of arranging a bizarre plot that involved castrating his ex-son-in-law. Wilbur Eichman has been charged with one count of criminal solicitation after he paid a man cash to beat up his ex-son-in-law. Police say Eichman paid 34-year-old Charles Pernot $1,200 to beat up the victim and even offered up a bonus if Pernot cut off the victim's genitals.

"He offered or suggested he use a high power rifle and he said that if you castrate him, there will be a bonus in that for you, an additional $3,000," Corporal Trinidad Navarro said. Investigators said Eichman even wanted his ex-son-in-law's genitals brought to him.

Full story here.

Clarity please! "Castration" is the removal of the testes, or "balls" if you will. The term "genitalia" includes said balls plus the penis. So was the bonus for the set of three or just the two?
