Artie was a small-time ganster who was looking for some work, so he advertised in the newpaper that he would murder for pay.
Several weeks later he got a call from a man who wanted his wife killed, but could only pay a dollar.
That wasn't much money, but Artie took the job just to build up his reputation.
He tracked the wife into a grocery store, cornered her, and strangled her.
Then he strangled two witnesses.
The next day the headline read 'Artie chokes three for a dollar at the A&P.'
