The ex-CEO of Amazon Mexico was recently accused of paying two hitmen thousands of dollars to murder his wife three years ago.
Juan Carlos Garcia has been on the run but a trial recently opened over the killing of his wife, Abril Pérez Sagaón, in Mexico City, the New York Post reported Sunday.

The outlet continued:
One of the hired guns testified that Garcia offered an extra $2,500 if his wife was killed before the couple’s next court hearing in a lawsuit she had filed against him.
Pérez had filed for divorce from her husband after she accused him of trying to kill her when he beat her with a baseball bat in January 2019. She was in Mexico City for a scheduled hearing when she was fatally shot by a motorcyclist, authorities said.
Computer generated images depicted motorcyclists sitting next to a vehicle, with one pointing a handgun into the car at someone sitting in the passenger’s seat.
A photo showed the car with what appeared to be bullet holes in the window:
Garcia was still on the run but Interpol issued a warrant for his arrest. He reportedly fled Mexico and entered the United States, later writing to the mayor of Mexico City saying he was innocent.
