Former St. Louis radio host guilty of murder
Jurors took just 45 minutes Friday to convict a former St. Louis radio host, Leonardo Drisdel, of first-degree murder for beating, biting and smothering a 28-year-old woman to death in 2005.
Assistant Circuit Attorney Don Tyson called Cassandra Kovack's death “horrific, violent and protracted” in closing arguments. She was either punched repeatedly or had her head slammed into a hard object, suffered cuts and bites on her cheek and arm. Drisdel bit her nose off and she finally died of asphyxiation after Drisdel covered her face with a plastic grocery bag, Tyson said.
Kovack died June 4, 2005, after she had invited Drisdel home and cooked him a pasta meal, Tyson said.
Police found her body in her blood-spattered apartment in the 3500 block of Miami Street after Drisdel eventually directed police there. They also found a crack pipe with Drisdel's DNA.
At the time, Drisdel hosted a weekly radio show called "The Human Factor" on radio station WGNU.

Make him live as long as possible so he will have to relive that moment in his memory for ever.
Scum like him give a bad name to the other scum of the earth.
