The parents of two men involved in the shooting of a police informant say their sons were set up. 23 year-old Rachel Hoffman was murdered last week and as Whitney Ray tells us, police aren't answering many questions about how Hoffman got involved with the men.

Rachel Hoffman was working as an informant for Tallahassee Police. She was suppose to meet her marks at this park and instead went somewhere else. Attorney's for Hoffman's family say she should have never been put in such a dangerous situation.

Johnny Devine / Attorney: "They knew they would be armed because she was sent there to purchase a firearm, which she has had no experience in."

Police say Hoffman was used because of her past run in's with the law.

David McCranie / Tallahassee Police: "Rachel was already involved in illegal narcotics. She had already been arrested for 20 grams of marijuana."

The stepfather and Father-in-law of the two men involved in the murder of the police informant is shedding tears of remorse.

Karey Freeman / Step-Father: We would not wish this on anyone. I'm very sorry."

Whitney Ray / Reporter: "Florida Department of Law Enforcement is investigating the murder case. Whether or not the sting operation was handled properly will be left up to police to decide."

The mayor has not yet called for an outside investigation. The suspects' stepfather and father-in-law says the two were targeted while working at this car detail shop. He says the victim's coerced the two men into finding drugs for her to buy

Karey Freeman / Stepfather: "This young lady kept coming by and she kept telling them, that this is going to be an easy deal and this is just a transfer, 'I can get the money if you can get the stuff.'"

Neither man has been charged with murder yet.Hoffman Murder Investigation
