KEY WEST, Fla. -- A Florida man has been convicted of murder and child abuse in the death of his young son.
A jury deliberated just two hours before finding Christopher Bennett, 31, guilty of stomping his 5-year-old, Zachary, to death in April 2003. The boy died of a ruptured liver, a bleeding brain and broken ribs.
A report from Florida's social service agency said the boy never should have been placed in his father's care. Bennett has a long arrest record for battery, domestic violence and selling cocaine.
After less than two hours of jury deliberation, Bennett was found guilty of first-degree murder and aggravated child abuse.
Bennett's sentencing phase begins April 4.
