Victorino and Hunter Sentenced

A Florida judge has sentenced Troy Victorino, 48, and Jerone Hunter, 39, to death for the 2004 Deltona massacre, which resulted in six murders and one dog’s death.
The men initially received death sentences, but these were overturned in 2018 due to the need for unanimous jury recommendations.
A recent resentencing hearing permitted a new jury to recommend death with only eight votes required, leading to the judge's confirmation of the jury's recommendation after a week-and-a-half hearing.

Faison Faces Death Penalty

Donovan Faison, a 23-year-old Florida man, faces the death penalty after being convicted of murdering his pregnant girlfriend, Kaylin Fiengo, 18, in November 2022.
Fiengo was found shot in her car, with an ultrasound image nearby.
Prosecutors described the killing as premeditated and execution-style, citing Faison's angry texts about the pregnancy.
Jurors recommended the death penalty by an 11-1 vote, and Faison is to be sentenced on December 5.

Andres Seeks Death Penalty

Rafael Andres, 61, faces a new jury to seek the death penalty for the 2005 murder of Yvette Fariñas.
The case, first sentenced to death in 2014, was reopened due to constitutional issues.
DNA and cellphone records link Andres to the crime.
He had a prior conviction for murdering Linda Azcarreta in 1987 and served only 18 months.
Opening arguments are set to begin soon.
