ROANOKE, Ind. (Indiana's NewsCenter) - A Roanoke doctor has admitted he tried to hire someone to kill his estranged wife and two other people.

In a deal with federal prosecutors Dr. Lesley Scholl pleaded guilty illegally transferring a firearm silencer and possessing unregistered machine guns.

Prosecutors say Scholl agreed to pay a man $200,000 for each of three killings - his estranged wife, her attorney and a doctor with whom he had an ongoing legal fight.
