One of the occupational hazards of being a hitman is that your client who hired you will have you killed after you perform your services in order to silence you.
Same is true for the hit men who took out the hit men. It is a never ending cycle.
Maybe, but much less likely. They're probably foot soldiers and their orders came from their own gangs leadership, and not those responsible for ordering the assininatons. So that specific chain has effectively been broken.
It's hitmen all the way down
To be fair, thus may only apply if you end up in prison

Oct 6 (Reuters) - Six men suspected of involvement in the murder in August of Ecuador's anti-corruption presidential candidate Fernando Villavicencio were killed in prison on Friday, the prisons agency said, barely a week before a crucial run-off election.
The killings took place in a penitentiary in Guayaquil, the South American country's largest city, the attorney general's office announced earlier on Friday.
Outgoing President Guillermo Lasso pledged "neither complicity nor cover-up" in getting to the bottom of the killings, in a post on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
Villavicencio, a prominent journalist, was gunned down less than two weeks before a first round general election as he left a campaign event in the capital, Quito.
The second round run-off vote is scheduled for Oct. 15, the culmination of an election cycle marred by numerous incidents of violence.
Business heir Daniel Noboa, who holds a narrow lead in some polls ahead of the run-off, said in a social media post that the government must provide details of what occurred at the prison and that peace must be restored in the country.
