PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) - A Pensacola man has been convicted of
killing his former girlfriend's infant son.
A jury found 39-year-old Adrian Scott guilty Friday of
second-degree murder. Prosecutors say Scott shook the infant and
slammed him on the floor in August 2002 while the child's mother
was in the shower. He child was rushed to a hospital, where he was
pronounced brain dead and taken off life support two days later.
Scott had been convicted of first-degree murder for the child's
death in 2005, but that conviction was overturned.
Scott faces possible life in prison.
