FORT MYERS (CBSMiami/AP) – It's not often when a lawyer sees firsthand what his client claims to have done, but that was the case on Wednesday.
A southwest Florida man put his dead neighbor in the bed of his pickup truck and drove to his lawyer's office claiming he'd killed the man in self-defense.
Attorney Robert Harris told the News-Press of Fort Myers that 52-year-old John Marshall showed up around 4 p.m. Wednesday, saying he didn't know who else to trust.
Attorneys called 911 and Marshall spent hours at Harris' office before finally leaving for the hospital around 10:30 p.m.
He had a swollen lip, missing tooth and what appeared to be two broken thumbs.
