To be precise, the Russian word снять, which is here translated as "get rid of" usually means "to remove from position" and not "to murder in a dark alley by means of a dagger to the liver."

However, ONCE AGAIN, in the last text, it is not correct to translate "никуда не денется" as "she is not getting away." The actual meaning is "her time will come" and it obviously refers to the word "снять", which, again, does not mean "murder."
I am annoyed by this translation.
