A grand jury has indicted a 28-year-old sex offender on charges of soliciting money to kill a 12-year-old child who he had allegedly seduced.

On December 3, 2021, Chandler Cardente allegedly began communicating with a minor girl via social media, as detailed in a press release issued by the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Rhode Island. Cardente allegedly made "sexual contact" with the juvenile on December 10, 2021, over a week later, and was subsequently arrested for this crime.

According to the indictment, on February 4, Cardente, while being confined at the Adult Correctional Institutions, had a phone conversation with another individual. Allegedly, he attempted to start a murder-for-hire plan by offering $200 cash and $1,500 worth of equipment to have the minor victim killed.

The indictment claims that Cardente informed the victim that he wanted her to "end up dead" because she was "a witness."

Cardente was charged with enticing of a juvenile, conducting a felony act involving a minor while being a registered sex offender, and interstate murder-for-hire on September 14th, according to the Attorney's Office.

Reports indicate that Cardente faces life in prison if convicted of enticement of a minor, "with a minimum mandatory term of incarceration of 10 years; committing a felony offense involving a minor while being a registered sex offender is punishable by a consecutive term of incarceration of 10 years to any sentence imposed for enticement of a minor; interstate murder-for-hire is punishable by a statutory penalty of up to

According to official documents, Cardente is still being imprisoned in one of the state's high-security prisons for adults.

According to court documents, Cardente was arrested in 2013 and 2014 on child molestation allegations and again in 2020 for failing to register as a sex offender.
