Especially considering this woman hired a contract killer without knowing that this person "may at some point have actually raped and murdered one or more" (whatever that means). I don't think the ends necessarily justify the means. At the point that the contractor discovered decent evidence of possible rape or murder, the woman should have tried to contact the police with this information.
If the police still refused to do anything, then 1) fuck the police, 2) call Dexter Morgan, 3) have the stalker killed.
Also, dear OP: if you want to distance yourself from a situation that clearly did happen, just say "this is a hypothetical story".
Were the actions of this woman morally justified?
