Surgeon's Murder Trial: Body Still Missing
23 Sep
Summary
- Plastic surgeon Tomasz Kosowski is on trial for murder.
- The victim's body has not been recovered since the incident.
- A waste truck driver testified about a suspicious trash bag.
The murder trial of plastic surgeon Tomasz Kosowski entered its sixth day as prosecutors continue to present evidence. Kosowski is representing himself in the proceedings related to the death of Steven Cozzi. Throughout the trial, more than 40 witnesses have testified.
A key development on day six included testimony from a waste truck driver. This witness stated he had deposited a heavily weighted black trash bag at a South Florida landfill, noting a distinct odor emanating from it.
The State is using this testimony and other evidence to illustrate the extensive nature of the search efforts. Investigators aim to explain why Cozzi's body may never have been recovered by authorities.
Separately, declassified documents from a 20-year-old FBI probe into the 9/11 attacks suggest a possible Saudi support network for the hijackers. This investigation originated from a Saudi flight departing Tampa.
