A lot of odd things happen in Florida every
Florida Man Nicknamed "Murder" With "Murder" Neck Tattoo Charged With Murder
Man Nicknamed "Murder" Who Had "Murder" Tattooed on His Neck Arrested for Murder
Courtney Lawrence was his real name, but most people who knew him in Bradenton called him "Murder."
The 27-year-old had never murdered anyone before, at least as far as police know. He had been convicted on multiple armed robbery charges and other assorted charges before and served time. In fact, he had gotten out of his latest stint in jail only last August 26.
Well, last week Lawrence was one of a handful of men who took part in a home invasion in Manatee County. The 38-year-old homeowner was armed and exchanged gunfire with the robbers. During the shootout, the homeowner, Lawrence, and one of his accomplices, Emanuel Johnson, were injured.
Moments after the chaos, the homeowner's wife returned with their two children from a 7-Eleven. The others fled, but Johnson was left behind. He later died.
Lawrence was later found at a local hospital. He was charged with first-degree murder and armed robbery. Police are still on the lookout for the other men.
