CHICAGO -- A Chicago man who played profes
ional basketball in Europe was charged Thursday with trying to persuade a friend to kill his wife.
Kenneth Allen Miller was charged with solicitation of murder for hire, NBC5's Charlie Wojciechow
ski
reported.
Prosecutors said Miller asked a friend earlier this month to kill his 36-year-old wife after she began "prying" into his affairs. Miller allegedly had a girlfriend and baby in Spain
and a girlfriend in Milwaukee.
Prosecutors said Miller's friend went to police and agreed to wear a wire.
"Our detectives from Area 2 got information that Mr. Miller was soliciting a friend of his to kill his wife, and a court order was sought and granted to use eavesdropping devices," Chicago Police Supt. Phil Cline said.
In those tape-recorded conversations, prosecutors allege that Miller originally wanted his friend to break into the couple's home on South Shore Drive then wait in the basement to make the shooting appear to have happened during a burglar
y. At one point, the friend allegedly suggested bringing someone named "Little Man" into the plan and killing the wife as she drove home in her car to make it look like road rage. Miller a
lleg
edly said i
t wouldn't look suspicious because it would surprise no one if his wife went bananas while in her car.
"When enough evidence was developed, he was arrested," Cline said.
Miller was arrested at the South Shore Drive home he sh
ares with his wife and three children.
Miller graduated from Loyola University in 1990. He spent much of the past 12 years playing for basketball teams in Europe, where he was a popular player, Wojciechowski reported. Most recently, he played in Spain.
Cook County Judge Matthew Coghlan set Miller's bail at $350,000. If convicted, he could spend up to 30 years in prison.
