Damn, dude - you could've just left him a bad Yelp review

FORT MYERS, Fla. – A judge in southwest Florida handed down a death sentence Monday for a man convicted of killing an 11-year-old girl and her babysitter more than 30 years ago, but it was the murderer’s actions that shocked everyone.

Lee Circuit Judge Robert Branning was following last month's 10-2 jury recommendation in favor of death for Joseph Zieler, according to court records. The same panel had found Zieler, 61, guilty of two counts of first-degree murder.

Before the sentence, however, Zieler elbowed his attorney in the face, prompting Lee County deputies to tackle Zieler.

    Feisty old coot should at least get a little credit for pounding on a shyster lawyer.
