Accused murderer laughs, says “Hail Satan,” during his hearing

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WTVQ) – An attempted murder suspect didn’t make a very good impression during his court hearing in Louisville on Monday.

Jeffrey Scott, Jr. is accused of of beating a woman with a hammer, leaving her critically injured.  During his court appearance, Scott laughed repeatedly, said he wanted to represent himself, then said "hail, satan" as he was being led away.

The judge appointed him a public defender.
