Deputies in Richland Parish foiled what they are calling a death plot.
Narcotics Officers got an anonymous tip saying three people, Gary Hughes, Robert Wayne Bearden and Emily Jean Sledge were trying to kill a drug dealer.
Louisiana State Police and the Richland Parish Sheriffs Office say they worked on the case and made the arrests before the murder took place.
All three suspects are being held at the Richland Parish Detention Center on a $500,000 bond.
