Yelling "just kill me now" and falling over onto the ground, Vincent "Don Vito" Margera could not contain himself on Wednesday (October 31) when a jury delivered a split verdict of guilty on two counts of sexual assault on a child. The 51-year-old uncle of "Viva La Bam" star Bam Margera, who was acquitted of a third count, received the news after the jury in the case had deliberated for less than a day.

While Margera was acquitted on a third count of sexual assault on a child, the two felony convictions, each class-four felonies, could land Margera anywhere from two to six years and up to life in prison when he is sentenced in December, according to a press release on the conviction from the Jefferson County District Attorney's office. He could also receive probation for a minimum of 10 years and up to life on each charge.

Margera was taken into custody by the Jefferson County Sheriff after the verdict was read and will be held without bond until sentencing on December 20. According to Pam Russell, a spokeswoman for the DA's office, when the verdict was read, in addition to falling to the floor and yelling expletives, Margera had to be restrained and calmed by several sheriff's deputies.

As soon as the first guilty count came down, Margera "fell or threw himself backwards and hit the ground, making a loud noise, causing some furniture to fly."

Because there was the possibility that Margera might be convicted and remanded immediately into custody, there were a number of sheriff's deputies on hand, and four of them immediately rushed over to check on Margera.
As they approached, Russell said Margera yelled out,

"you might as well kill me now," as well as, "I can't f---ing spend the rest of my life in jail," "you cops lied" and "you can rot in f---ing hell!"
