Man Confesses 'It Was Kind Of Fun' Killing Neighbor
OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla.- A 34-year-old man said during a jailhouse interview with Local 6 News that he enjoyed killing his "busy body" neighbor and would kill again if given the chance. Zommer was arrested Tuesday in connection with the death of a 77-year-old woman who was found dead in her home on Miami Terrace in Osceola County. Police found Zommer driving a car missing from the home. Zommer admitted to Local 6 News Wednesday that he killed his neighbor. He said she was a busy body and he wanted her dead, according to the report. He also said he was tired of the woman spying on him so he brutally beat her and sliced her throat. "I would do it again," Zommer said for jail Wednesday. "It was kind of fun. You see, when it was done I went home and ate and I went back and made the house look like a robbery. I was in there for a while." Zommer said it was easy to forget about the crime. "It was like I was sitting down and somebody else was doing it because I was like out and looking in," Zommer said. "It felt so good when it was done." Neighbors found the body of a woman, who was not identified, early Tuesday inside her home on Miami Terrace in Osceola County. Police are trying to determine an exact cause of death. "We do know that there were obvious signs of struggle," Osceola County Sheriff's Office Capt. July Rivers said. "The medical examiner has come and removed the body, and we will wait until the autopsy is completed before we will know the exact of death." Zommer said he also randomly attacked a man walking down the street hours after killing the woman. "I beat that guy later that night with a crowbar about nine times over 75 cents," Zommer said. During the afternoon interview, Zommer also said he had planned to kill his girlfriend and also threatened Local 6 News reporter Deborah Garcia. "What purpose do I have to live, to drive a Saturn around and smoke crack all my life?" Zommer said. Zommer was not charged with the woman's murder Wednesday night. However, he was charged with attempted felony murder and robbery for an attack on a man, attempting to elude police and violation of probation. Investigators are looking at several other crimes Zommer admitted to on videotape, Local 6 News reported.
