Jessica Brown of the OSBI said Gene Kirkpatrick, the slain man's father-in-law, paid a handyman $3,000 and promised more for him to go to North Dakota and kill Phillip Gattuso.

Kirkpatrick, who lives in the Jones area, was not happy with the way Gattuso was raising his 3-year-old daughter since the death of his wife in March, Brown said.

Kirkpatrick was arrested on complaints of conspiracy to commit murder and conspiracy to commit burglary. Kirkpatrick was being held in the Oklahoma County jail Monday night.

Michael Allen Nakvinda, a 41-year-old Oklahoma City man who authorities have said was the Kirkpatricks' handyman, was charged in Cass County, N.D., with murder, robbery, burglary and theft Monday. He was arrested on Saturday.
