One of the suspects in an alleged murder plot once attended North High School.

Oconomowoc police say it appears Darren Wold conspired with his friend to have his ex-wife Kimberly Smith killed so Wold would get custody of their four-year-old son.

Two other men were arrested along with Wold. Smith was killed on October 1 inside her home. Police say the couple's son was in the home at the time, but didn't see the murder.

An Eau Claire School District spokesperson says Wold's picture is the 1985 school yearbook.

All three men are being held on a $2,000,000 bail.
