A former U.S. Army sniper has pleaded guilty to conspiring to murder a DEA agent and an informant.
Joseph Hunter, 49, and five others were arrested in September 2013 after they were recorded plotting to kill a DEA agent and informant in Liberia for $800,000, International Business Times reports.
Hunter was snared in a sting operation in which he thought he was working for a Columbian drug cartel.
Hunter faces between 10 years and life in prison when he is sentenced in May.
He also pleaded guilty to firearms charges and conspiring to import cocaine into the U.S.
