HOLLY HILL, Florida (AP) -- Two Florida teenagers found a homeless man in the woods and beat and kicked him to death "to have something to do," according to Volusia County sheriff's investigators.

Christopher Scamahorn, 14, and Jeffery Spurgeon, 18, confessed to beating the 53-year-old victim with their fists and sticks and kicking him, sheriff's spokesman Brandon Haught said Sunday.

The pair were charged with murder Sunday. Spurgeon was being held without bail in Daytona Beach. Scamahorn taken to a juvenile jail.

The teens said they attacked the man "for fun" and "to have something to do," Haught said. They went back to the woods three times after the initial attack to beat the man again, he said.

The victim was found Saturday, and the condition of the body indicated he had been dead for several days. An autopsy Sunday determined that the man died from blunt force trauma to the head and body, Haught said.

The victim's name has not been released.

"We're trying to find next of kin," Haught said Monday. "He apparently doesn't have any next of kin nearby."

Investigators said there may be more arrests.

Cut the state off at the top and kick it towards cuba.

I mean seriously .. its a state full of trailer parks, retirement communities and nasty 50's style tourist spots. It's a humid, filthy bug-ridden state.


(Except for south florida... it rocks)

 

[Tazznum1]

I drove all the way to Miami and left the next day. Never again. But I did pick up 2 hitchhikers that came back with me.

Killing homeless people for fun? That sounds familiar...

"There was nothing I hated more than to see a filthy old drunkie, a-howling away at the filthy songs of his fathers and going blurp blurp in between as if it were a filthy old orchestra in his stinking rotten guts. I could never stand to see anyone like that, especially when they were old like this one was."

Look, I'm all for getting rid of Florida, but only if we can somehow manage to move Disney World and Universal before we do. They're about the only things the damned state is good for anyway.

 

[Tazznum1]

We can rebuild them. Somewhere with nice normal weather.

 

[Brannon]

We can expand Six Flags over Georgia to copy the rides and attractions that are washed away with Florida (w/o infringing copyrights of course). Everybody wins!

And to think of all those rainy days I spent inside just watching tv.
