“William Cormier III, a Florida man, was convicted of first-degree murder Thursday and sentenced to life in prison without parole for beating a former Pensacola newspaper reporter to death with a hammer and burying his body in a concrete-covered pit so he could steal a collection of fantasy role-playing cards worth $100,000. In the case, prosecutor Bridgette Jernsen said Cormier was so desperate for money that he sold Sean Dugas’ cards to pay for the plastic storage container that became his concrete-encased coffin. Prosecutors said he stole Dugas’ valuable collection of cards for the game ‘Magic: The Gathering.'”
