In this Nov. 2000 photo, Dana Martin appears in Vermont District Court in Barre, Vt. Court documents in a New Mexico district court say Dana Martin told investigators he persuaded a man he met in prison and the man's nephew to kill Justin Bieber, Bieber's bodyguard and two others not connected to the pop star. Martin told investigators that Mark Staake and Tanner Ruane headed east, planning to be near a Bieber concert scheduled in New York City. They missed a turn and crossed into Canada from Vermont. Staake was arrested on an outstanding warrant. Ruane was arrested later. The two men face multiple charges stemming for the alleged plot.(AP Photo/Times Argus, Jeb Wallace-Brodeur)
