Cook was sentenced for second-degree murder, two years after a man s decomposed body was found floating in a barrel. NBC 7 s Nicole Gomez reports.
Prosecutors said Spurgeon allowed Cook to use his boat and helped him weigh down a 55-gallon drum containing Medina s body, which was later found floating in the bay. When police pulled the barrel to the shore and opened it, they found a body inside, so badly decomposed that it took the San Diego County Medical Examiner s Office about six weeks to identify. According to the autopsy report, Medina was able to be identified in part by fingerprints and the tattoo of a five-pointed star on his left ankle.
