Maria Sosa

Maria Sosa is the villainess who masterminded the attempted murder-for-hire plot against her husband/business partner, Ramon Sosa, in 2015.

Ramon Sosa is a retired boxer and he and wife Maria owned a gym together in Houston; however, in July of 2015, Maria turned heel by planning to hire a hitman to kill Ramon. Regarding a motive, Maria only stated that she needed her husband dead for "financial reasons," but wouldn't elaborate any further during her meeting with the hitman. Unbeknownst to Maria, the "hitman" was an undercover police officer, and he informed Ramon about his wife's actions.

To trap Maria, the officer staged Ramon's murder by having him posed as a victim of a shooting, with his "corpse" being shown to Maria as evidence of the deed being committed. As shown on videotape, the evil Maria expressed glee over Ramon's murder, laughing wickedly before handing a payment to the "hitman," who revealed himself as an officer and arrested the scheming villainess. With the evidence against her, Maria pleaded guilty in October 2016, and received a 20-year prison sentence.
