TARPON SPRINGS — The young man pointed the rifle at his friend and told him to kneel down.
Then, he unloaded multiple rounds execution-style, hitting Joseph Brignoli in the torso, head and back, police said.
Brignoli, 33, slumped against the garage of his pale yellow, three-story townhouse at 1197 Flying Fish Lane. Police found Brignoli, a local martial arts instructor, dead in his driveway in the usually peaceful, waterfront community just after 10:30 p.m. Sunday.

Very sad, especially since so many people around the perpetrator saw something like this coming.

Amy Kubiak said Christopher "didn't want help," and she long suspected a horrific ending for her son.

"It's either 6 feet under or life in prison" for Christopher, she said.

It'd be interesting to hear what (if anything) the martial artist did to become his victim.
