As grief sweeps through the South Florida live music scene with the news of promoter-drummer Jimmy Pagano's death, a man accused of fatally stabbing him early Sunday morning is hospitalized at Broward General Medical Center. Find more details of the altercation here.

Police haven't released many details on the accused attacker, 38-year-old Brian Edward Krebs, but his social media profiles reveal details about him as a business owner working on his master's degree.

Update: It turns out that American Pie's Stifler character was inspired by Krebs.

One of his pages also includes now-eerie quotes, including one about serial killers. And another movie quote talks about how we "spend our whole lives trying to stop death" and "praying, fighting, killing."

As of Monday afternoon, Krebs is receiving treatment following injuries received in the
brawl at Fishtales Bar & Grill in Fort Lauderdale's North Beach neighborhood, according to a police report. He faces charges of first degree murder and four counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.

According to his Linkedin profile, Krebs' listed occupation is the owner of Oncology & Biotech Recruiting. The site says he was working on a master's degree in Pharmacology from the University of Michigan, and was previously employed as a sales representative for Eli Lilly and Co., selling Prozac and Zyprexa in downtown Chicago. Krebs' Facebook page includes several photos, many of him smiling and playing golf.

The Linkedin page also lists him as a 1991 graduate of East Grand Rapids High School in Grand Rapids, Michigan, an all-conference football and hockey player, and all-state pitcher on the baseball team. His school history also includes earning an associate's degree in 1993 from the University of Florida, a bachelor's in Molecular Biology from Western Michigan University in 1995, and holding offices in the Sigma Chi Fraternity.

Several favorite quotations are also listed on this Facebook page. Among them is an extended passage from The Life of David Gale, a film about a death penalty protester who is sent to death row after being accused of killing a fellow activist.

"We spend our whole lives trying to stop death. Eating, inventing, loving, praying, fighting, killing. But what do we really know about death? Just that nobody comes back. But there comes a point in life - a moment - when your mind outlives its desires, its obsessions, when your habits survive your dreams, and when your losses... Maybe death is a gift. You wonder."
