A self-proclaimed prostitute received a death sentence Tuesday for the 2010 killing of a gay couple from Wilton Manors.
Peter Avsenew, 32, was convicted of first-degree murder in the deaths of Kevin Adams and Steven Powell.
Police said the couple was found shot to death and wrapped in blankets in their Wilton Manors home on the day after Christmas in 2010.
According to police, Avsenew placed an advertisement on Craigslist and moved in with the couple weeks before their deaths.
The prosecution claimed during the trial that Avsenew used the couple's credit cards and was found in possession of their car. Avsenew's defense attorney claimed that his client found them dead and then stole the items instead of calling police.
Avsenew's mother turned him in to authorities after he made suspicious statements to her.
In addition to murder, Avsenew was convicted on two counts each of armed robbery, grand theft auto, credit card fraud and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
Avsenew has shown no remorse in court for the killings.
