MIAMI — A man suspected of throwing another man 25 stories to his death from a high-rise in Miami Beach briefly appeared in a Miami courtroom on Tuesday, as he seeks bond while facing a murder charge.
Corey Hutterli, 37, of Parkland, had his hearing reset for Wednesday, where his relatives are set to make the case for him to get bond.
Police said the killing of Justin Zelin, 35, happened on Feb. 15 at the Akoya Condominium, located at 6365 Collins Ave. on Mid-Beach.
Investigators say Zelin called 911 less than 10 minutes before his death about an altercation with Hutterli.
And investigators say they could hear Zelin telling Hutterli to get out of his apartment, calling him by his alias, “Sasha.”
Officers say they found Hutterli still inside Zelin’s condo with no shoes on and cuts on his body consistent with a fight.
During a past court appearance, his attorney argued it’s purely circumstantial evidence with no eyewitnesses.
Hutterli’s hearing is scheduled for Wednesday morning.
