A Bush man was found guilty on Wednesday of having helped Dominic Robinson escape and cover up evidence after the killing of Samantha Jaume, the Mandeville-area homemaker murdered in front of her children on Independence Day, 2001.

A St. Tammany Parish jury took less than an hour to find Zlatico "Zack" Brujic, 33, guilty of obstruction of justice, a charge that - because Brujic has a prior felony on his record - could garner 20 to 80 years in prison.

State Judge Raymond Childress scheduled sentencing for Dec. 16.

On July 4, 2001, Robinson followed Jaume, 25, and her four children home from the Wal-Mart near Covington, then shot her in the head after she couldn't find the keys to her new sport utility vehicle, according to testimony from Robinson's August trial.

Robinson called Brujic -- who has "THREE X LOSER" tattooed across his forehead --- after shooting Jaume, according to evidence brought forward in Brujic's three-day trial this week in Covington.

Robinson was covered in blood and had just run through some nearby woods to get away from the scene of the murder, which occurred in the Woodridge subdivision near Mandeville.

Brujic was staying at the home of his ex-girlfriend, Sarah Faison. Faison lived near the Jaumes' home and Robinson knew that, so he gave his old friend Brujic a call after the murder, according to testimony.

Reminds of the loser who, alone in his prison cell, tatooed his face. He thought it would help his rep to have '666' on his forhead.

Despite the tatoo, and the three-state killing spree that got him incarcerated; all of the other prisoners laughed at him everywhere he went.

Although it looked really cool in the mirror, having '999' inked on his face didn't have the desired effect.
