VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - The co-founder of Clearly Lasik eye surgery has been found guilty of plotting to kill his business partner, who happens to be the official LASIK surgeon of the Vancouver Canucks.
Dr Michael Mackovac was convicted on solicitation to commit murder, attempted murder and theft charges for his plans to have a Russian mafia hit man take out Dr Joseph King.
Prosecutors say he wanted to kill King because of his plans to split the company. Mackovak asked an employee to put him in touch with a Russian mafia hit man to carry out the killings, for which he was willing to pay $100,000.
Juror Stephanie Delaney says they struggled to reach the guilty verdicts because of defense claims that the government entrapped Mackovak. "The thing that was persuasive to all of us was Dr. Mackovac didn't indicate at all that he was reluctant. He seemed perfectly happy to be pushed."
Mackovak was cleared of charges that he tried to hire someone to kill the company's former President.
He is facing up to 20 years in prison and will be sentenced next month.

didn't even hear about his arrest what a dumbass.... the guy he wanted to kill was also his Brother-In-Law

Prosecutors also claimed Clearly Lasik was in a slump.
The eye surgery company has offices throughout the Pacific Northwest and Western Canada. The company reported earnings of $17 million in 2007, but profits dipped to $10 million in 2008, charging papers said.
