I say that to you sincerely; take care of yourself, please. It is an utter tragedy for this court to see such a total waste of humanity as I’ve experienced in this courtroom.You’re a bright young man. You would have made a good lawyer and I would have loved to have you practice in front of me, but you went another way, partner. Take care of yourself. I don’t feel any animosity toward you. I want you to know that. Once again, take care of yourself.Before entering the judiciary, Cowart served as a Miami police officer. He sat on the bench for fourteen years, earning wide respect among Florida lawyers. He was known for frequent biblical quotations in the courtroom.Judge Cowart died of a heart attack at the age of 62. Bundy was executed two years later in 1989.
