A Runnemede woman is accused of using a dating app to find someone to kill her ex-boyfriend and his daughter.
Jaclyn Diiorio, 26, allegedly offered approximately $12,000 for the deaths of her intended victims, identified only as a 57-year-old Philadelphia policeman and his 19-year-old daughter.
But the purported hitman alerted police to the plot on April 3, according to the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office.

Diiorio was arrested the next day after allegedly paying $500 to the man, who’s identified only as a confidential informant, during a meeting at a Wawa on the Black Horse Pike in Gloucester Township.
Diiorio, who identified herself as “D,” first met with the informant on March 31 at a Wawa in Runnemede. They then exchanged texts and phone calls through April 3, a probable cause statement says.
The informant told investigators Diiorio was “adamant about killing her ex-boyfriend,” according to the statement.
It says the police officer reported ending his relationship with Diiorio, who had also been his barber, on March 6.
The officer, whose name was redacted from the statement, also told investigators that his home had been vandalized by a Molotov cocktail in September 2024.
Diiorio is charged with two counts of attempted murder, as well as one count of conspiracy to commit murder. She also is accused of illegal possession of a prescription drug.
The charges are only allegations. Diiorio has not been convicted in the case.
Diiorio was being held at Camden County Jail, pending a detention hearing in Superior Court.
