Episode Details

This transcript examines the murder-for-hire plot of Gregory Davis, a Vermont father executed after a fraudulent oil deal collapsed. The mastermind, a charismatic con man named Serhat Gumrukcu, feared that Davis would expose his financial crimes and ruin a lucrative biotech merger. Gumrukcu utilized a complex network of associates, including a middleman and a hitman who posed as a US marshal to kidnap the victim. Federal investigators eventually traced the conspiracy through cryptocurrency transactions, burner phone data, and a white Ford Explorer. Following a lengthy investigation, all four participants were convicted, with Gumrukcu receiving a life sentence for his role in the premeditated killing.
