A man accused of killing a Fort Myers police officer wants the death penalty to be taken off the table.
Wismer Desmaret, 32, was in court on Wednesday for a hearing where his attorneys argued the constitutionality of the death penalty.

Desmaret appeared in court with restraints on and was surrounded by at least six deputies.
