Florida Man Confesses to Killing Son in Doorbell Camera Footage

David Contreras faces second-degree murder charges after the tragic shooting of his 22-year-old son, Eric, during a dispute.

David Contreras, a 52-year-old Florida man, used his home's doorbell camera to confess to his wife that he had fatally shot their 22-year-old son, Eric, during a heated argument last November.
The tragic incident occurred in their Miami residence, with Contreras pleading not guilty to a second-degree murder charge during his arraignment on November 27.
Footage from the doorbell camera, which captured Contreras' confession and emotional distress, was released to the public, showing the moments after the fatal shooting.
Contreras is being held without bond until his next court hearing, scheduled for March 11.
The precise sequence of events leading to the escalation of the father-son dispute into a tragic act of gun violence remains unclear.
