• Man pleads guilty to murder of Gulfport teen. He wants the death penalty (tampabay.com) — A man has pleaded guilty in Pinellas County to charges tied to the killing of a Gulfport teenager, moving his case into a penalty phase where a judge will decide between life in prison or a possible death sentence. Prosecutors and defense attorneys agreed to waive a jury for that phase, while a co-defendant still faces trial later this year. The case centers on a teen who was picked up from her Gulfport home and later killed.
