Marine On Trial for Murder 'Missed Thrill of Killing': DA

Prosecutors say a U.S. Marine veteran accused of stabbing a construction worker to death at an Oceanside job site in 2017 "missed the thrill" of killing and went out that night looking for a life to take.

Former combat instructor and one-time Marine Mikhail Schmidt is accused of killing 37-year-old, Jacob Bravo on March 9, 2017. He appeared in court Wednesday for the first day of his trial.

Schmidt, 33, showed no reaction as prosecutors played a recording of a chilling 911 call made by Bravo's co-worker after he discovered him dead in their on-site trailer.
