Prosecutors to try again for death sentences in Deltona mass murder

Previous death sentences overturned

Troy Victorino.

DELTONA, Fla. – Prosecutors say they will try again to get a death sentence for two of the suspects in one of Volusia County's worst mass murders in history. 

Troy Victorino and Jerone Hunter were two of four suspects who beat six people and a dog to death inside a Deltona home in 2004.

The men's death sentences were both overturned because jurors did not reach a unanimous decision, which is now state law. 

A court date for Victorino and Hunter has not been announced.
