LAS VEGAS — A jury has found a man guilty of breaking into a room at a Las Vegas Strip hotel-casino and robbing and killing two Vietnamese tour leaders in June 2018.

Julius Damiano Deangilo Trotter stood with his lawyers, shaking his head and glancing several times at jurors while the unanimous verdicts were read Tuesday in Clark County District Court, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

Trotter, 37, faces a possible death sentence or life in prison following his convictions on charges of murder, burglary and robbery with a weapon. He was convicted in the stabbing deaths of Sang Boi Nghia and Khoung Ba Le Nguyen at the Circus Circus hotel.

The same jury began hearing testimony and evidence Tuesday in the penalty phase of his trial.

Jurors deliberated about three hours after hearing some two weeks of evidence and testimony, the Review-Journal reported.

They learned that Nghia, 38, owned a tour business with her husband in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
