"If someone wants a thing stolen, an information gathered or altered, a person extracted, killed or shielded, a place protected or damaged or anything like that, is there a ...well-established, fairly easily accessible market of people or groups of people offering such services out there?" She assumes that the answer will be no, at this point, but one last try.
