NEWARK, N.J. (AP) - A political consultant in New Jersey has admitted paying two men to kill a longtime associate in 2014 who worked with him on various campaigns. Sean Caddle of Hamburg appeared in federal court by videoconference Tuesday and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit murder for hire. Prosecutors say Caddle solicited a Connecticut resident in April 2014 to commit murder for thousands of dollars. Prosecutors say that person recruited an accomplice from Philadelphia and they stabbed the victim to death and set fire to the victim's apartment the next month. Prosecutors did not release the names of the victim or the suspects, but NJ.com reported the circumstances of the case matched the death of 52-year-old Michael Galdieri.
