"Dolphins Suck" Comment Leads to Death of an Inmate
By Kyle Munzenrieder in CrimeMon., Nov. 23 2009 @ 1:48PM
Defending the pride of the Miami Dolphins to the death is something the
current roster hardly seems interested in, but one fan is accused of
killing a Dolphins detractor. Though, both the assailant and the victim
were already behind bars at the time.
The incident occurred at South Bay Correctional Institute, a privately
operated facility in Palm Beach County in October.
28 year-old inmate Willie Smith apparently was repeatedly taunting 42
year-old Vincent Lee, and the night before the murder told him that "the
Dolphins suck."
On October 16th, sometime after 6:30 in the morning Lee entered Smith's
cell with a padlock attached to a black belt and hit Smith in the head.
Lee had one-and-a-half foot shiv in his waistband, though it's not clear
if he used the weapon. Lee was able to clean up much of the blood and
flushed a sheet down a toilet before being detained by guards.
Smith died 8 day later. He was serving a life sentence for armed robbery
and burglary. Lee was serving a 30 year sentence for drug charges and
robbery.

Oh, you're talking about the football team. For some reason I thought
you meant small-d dolphins and I was going to say, of course they suck.
They're mammals.
