According to the complaint, he told the girl he was dating that someone was coming down from Canada to kill him over a money debt, and did she know anyone who he could hire to kill the hitman? So she called someone she knew, put him in touch with Danton, and Danton offered him $10k. Then told him where his apartment was, and said he should kill the guy to make it look like he was caught trying to break into danton's. And the guy he was offering money to said, on tape, "What you're asking me to do is to go to your place now, or tomorrow, and take care of this before you get home, correct?" and Danton said "yeah." (That was Wed. night.)
