ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – One month after a man pleaded for his life during a gruesome beating, prosecutors are seeking the death penalty against the accused killer.
Scott Jenks, 48, left The Sports Bar and Grill in St. Pete’s Northgate Center on January 14 only to be brutally beaten for over an hour in the parking lot.
“An hour and nineteen minutes of him just beating him, it’s just unheard of,” Jenks’ sister, Lina Young said. “I just can’t see why somebody would be that mean and so hateful. And when he begged for his life, it’s just something that should never have happened.”
