Missing Largo lawyer case records show $300K cash found in doc's car

A law office bathroom was turned into a crime scene last week after a Largo lawyer went missing. Just two months earlier, the same bathroom was the site of a confrontation between the lawyer and the plastic surgeon now accused of his death, Tomasz Kosowski.

A search warrant filed in Pinellas County offers further details in Steven Cozzi’s disappearance on March 21, in which investigators found blood in the law office bathroom where he worked. The warrant was obtained by police to search Kosowski’s car. Inside, investigators found nearly $300,000 in cash and a black bag containing masks, weapons, tools and sedatives, the warrant states.

Kosowski, 44, was arrested Sunday and faces a first-degree murder charge in connection to Cozzi’s disappearance, despite police having not found Cozzi’s body. Kosowski remains in the Pinellas County Jail without bail after his first court appearance Monday. An attorney has entered a not guilty plea on his behalf.

Court documents show police believe Cozzi was likely attacked inside the bathroom of his office at Blanchard Law, 1501 S Belcher Road.
