... DrewP approached another inmate to solicit the murder. Usually in these cases it is the murder in exchange for something (money?)
DrewP is locked up so he can't go to the bank. So if money was the incentive, how was DrewP going to get access to it?

Potential issue is not logistics of transferring $ to killer or someone, but more trying to cover the trail, jmo.
Gen'ly speaking, many banking transactions can be handled by mail and/or online.
But IIUC, prison inmates have limited or no access to internet, so let's look at mail.
1. Accountholder gives written instructions (maybe on bank's form) to bank to issue
cashier's ck
in amt of $XX,*advertiser censored*.oo, payable to order of Aaron T. Assassin & mail to 123 Main St., Smalltown, USA.
2. C/give bank written instructions to send by
wire transfer (thru The Fed) to First Nat'l Bk,
for further credit to Aaron T. Assassin, w First Nat'l bank's routing # and Aaron's bank a/c #.
If Drew does not mind
disclosing ID of payee-recipient, c/do either ^ way, but leaving clear
e-trail.
Imo, someone in Drew's situation would try to
blur e-trail by giving instructions to bank to -
- issue multiple checks in smaller amounts to same payee, like above, but over time.
- issue ck to someone else (brother, best bud?), after DrewP & other h/agreed he will transfer $ to Aaron.
Still quite
e-traceable.
Payment thru other means? Not quite so easily tracable.
Is it poss Drew still has
other assets, beside $ in banks, credit unions, brokerages?
3. A classic 1959 Thunderbird car, stored in like-new condition? Vintage mahogany ChrisCraft motorboat?
Transferring something like that would still create clear trail -- signing title and registration documents.
4. Does Drew have greenbacks stashed in a tree stump & trusted buddy to make a payment on his behalf?
Still 'analog-traceable.' Like the old saying - "Three can keep a secret as long as two of them are dead."
