BARTOW, Fla. (AP) — Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for a 26-year-old man charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the fatal shootings of three friends who had gathered at a central Florida lake in July for some late night fishing.
The State Attorney’s Office filed its intent Tuesday to seek the death penalty for Tony “T.J.” Wiggins Jr. on Tuesday in Polk County circuit court.
