Man sued for NOT killing someone

An extraordinary article in today's Times. A woman has sued a man who promised to kill her and never fulfilled his promise...and won! The best bit is his intended technique and excuse:

Reeves [the conman] banked the money [a total of £20,000] and told Mrs Ryder [the depressed friend] that she would be killed in a drive-by shooting on June 11, 2003. She wasn’t; Reeves telephoned her to cancel the arrangement, saying that he had had to kill the hitman himself and pay Mrs Ryder’s money to his widow
