A Florida double-murderer appeared with the word “killer” written on his own teeth in court Monday, where he proceeded to assault his own lawyer. Joseph Zieler, 61, beckoned his lawyer, Kevin Shirley, over to speak to him after entering court in handcuffs for a pre-sentencing hearing over the murders of an 11-year-old girl and her babysitter. After leaning in to speak to him, Zieler — who was eventually given the death penalty — suddenly caught Shirley in the face with a violent elbow shot, sending him spinning, courtroom video shows.
As onlookers gasped, three bailiffs immediately subdued tattooed Zieler, who was already in restraints, taking him down to the ground before removing him from the courtroom. According to video shown by Fort Myers News-Press the attorney managed to somewhat keep his composure and return to his table.

Hang him and don’t wait three decades to do it.
One look at that evil face, and I thought “pedo.”

Watched the video; personally I thought more highly of the video after of two women tubing down a river in Florida and acting all surprised there was a gator on a log in the middle - their girlie shrieks were
Buy weapons and ammo, boys. We will need them.
... amusing 😁
I don’t think that would have helped him. His reflexes don’t look that good.
Well, the lawyer didn’t do him much good.
SPJNK.
And that is what a demon possessed person looks like.
Well I suppose if you get sentenced to the death penalty it’s not like you have a whole lot to lose by decking your lawyer at that point.
We all do it, Jerry.
What? Who’s we?
Senior citizens.

Yep. It’s not enough to just have access to a shillelagh. One should also have some idea on how to use it. In this regard, YouTube has quite a few videos on defensive cane maneuvers.
A shillelagh in trained hands will most certainly get an attacker’s attention.
Satan is waiting
He will be, just not soon enough.
Or we could put gun feet first in a woodchipper.
