Florida plastic surgeon accused of killing attorney in his office defends himself in murder trial

An unusual trial is underway for a Florida plastic surgeon, accused of murdering an attorney he’d opposed in court and disposing of his body in a dumpster before prosecutors say it ended up at the landfill.

Clad in an orange jail jumpsuit, Dr. Tomasz Kosowski, 47, is representing himself in court as he faces a first-degree murder charge with the possibility of the death penalty. He’s waived his right to a jury – the judge presiding over the Pinellas County trial is set to decide the doctor’s fate.
