@trial_trackers: GUILTY. Judge Joseph Bulone found Tomasz Kosowski guilty of first-degree murder in the death of attorney Steven Cozzi after closing arguments Wednesday. Prosecutors argued that surveillance, digital evidence, blood and DNA evidence, vehicle evidence and Kosowski’s movements established a planned killing and disposal of Cozzi’s body. Kosowski, representing himself, argued the state had not proven its case beyond a reasonable doubt. The case now moves into the death-penalty phase. Kosowski waived his right to a jury for both the guilt and penalty phases, meaning Judge Bulone will also determine whether he receives the death penalty or life in prison without parole. Special counsel requested a Spencer hearing before final sentencing, while the judge decided to begin hearing the state’s aggravating factors today. Cozzi disappeared from his Largo law office in March 2023. His body has never been recovered. #TomaszKosowski #TrueCrime #Courtroom #Trial
The judges multiple instances of bias when refusing defence's requests for prosecution witnesses to physically demonstrate actions that they testified happened will lead to a successful appeal for a new trial.
