USF Doctoral Student Found Dead; Roommate Charged with Murder

Zamil Limon, a 27-year-old doctoral student at the University of South Florida, was discovered dead on the Howard Frankland Bridge, having suffered multiple sharp-force injuries. His roommate, Hisham Abugharbieh, faces two counts of first-degree premeditated murder for Limon's death and the disappearance of another student, Nahida Bristy, who is also 27.
