Victoria was at the heart of the murder-for-hire plot, which targeted her spouse of three years, who is known for his role on <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/ghost-hunters-the-shows-biggest-haters-are-actual-ghost-hunters.html/”>paranormal-hunting series Ghost Adventures</a>. Victoria was arrested on March 6 by Las Vegas police and booked on charges of solicitation to commit murder and conspiracy to commit murder, <a href=”https://www.tmz.com/2025/03/10/ghost-adventures-aaron-goodwin-wife-arrested-accused-hire-hitman/”>TMZ</a> reports.

According to police reports obtained by TMZ, Victoria was communicating with an inmate in a Florida prison about her desire to have her husband killed. The inmate then allegedly reached out to another man who was supposed to commit the murder while Aaron was filming his Travel Channel series in California. The plot came to light when prison officials seized the inmate’s contraband phone.

“Am I a bad person?” reads a message that Victoria allegedly sent to the inmate. “Because I chose to end his existence. Not divorce.” She set aside $11,515 to pay for the hit, cops say.
