Wanda Holloway

Wanda Holloway is a woman from Texas, known for hiring a hit man to kill the mother of her daughter's cheerleading rival.In 1991, Wanda Holloway asked her brother-in-law to hire a hitman to kill the mother of a girl who was competing with her daughter for a spot on the same Texas cheerleading squad. Holloway wanted the mother killed because she determined the competing girl would be so upset by the murder of her mother that she would drop out of the competition. Both girls were thirteen at the time of the plot.

She became known as the "Texas-Cheerleader-Murdering-Mom" and her story spawned two TV movies including The Positively True Adventures of the Alleged Texas Cheerleader-Murdering Mom, starring Holly Hunter.(wikipedia.org)
