[…] As recently as Monday morning, Mr. Asch met with an undercover F.B.I. agent to conduct surveillance of a woman—in reality a second undercover F.B.I. agent—whom he had discussed kidnapping and murdering, according to the criminal complaint. He brought two bags with him to the meeting point, near Battery Park. Inside were a Taser gun, meat hammer, skewers, zip ties, cleaning supplies and a dental retractor.” —New York Times
