Jett Smears Feces On Himself Before Trial

POSTED: Thursday, September 25, 2008
UPDATED: 5:37 pm CDT September 25, 2008

In a continuing effort to disrupt his murder trial, a man accused of stabbing another to death took a smelly route Thursday.

Richard Jett, accused of stabbing 80-year-old Homer Daniels to death in 2006, soiled himself and spread feces on his body just as his trial was scheduled to begin.

Jett was removed from the courtroom before proceedings began and the victim's son took the witness stand.

Arthur Daniels testified he found his father's body and noticed the curtains were drawn and blood on his father's porch when he arrived at the home. He said his father knew Jett through a mutual female friend who lived next door to the victim.

Testimony is expected to continue in the morning, but there is no word on Jett's possible presence. Previously, Jett has marked his body and face with a marker, removed and attempted to flush his clothing and lunged toward his attorney before being restrained.
