The high-profile Florida murder trial branded by the mainstream media as the "Xbox slayings" began today in St. Augustine. It was relocated there after officials decided that the Central Florida town of Deltona, where the murders occurred, would not be able to handle the media attention, which has focused on both the lurid nature of the crime and the fact it was apparently committed over a game console.
While most media reports have focused on the Xbox connection to the mass murder, few have outlined Victorino's extensive criminal history. According to the Associated Press, Victorino spent eight of the last 11 years in prison and was on probation when he allegedly committed the murders. Since he was first arrested for grand theft auto at 15, he has been convicted of a string of violent crimes, including arson, burglary, theft, and assault and battery.
Victorino and his associates are accused of taking the lives of Erin Belanger, 22, Michelle Nathan, 19, Francisco Ayo-Roman, 30, Anthony Vega, 34, Roberto Gonzales, 28, and Jonathan Gleason, 17, in August 2004. The trio, along with Robert Cannon, 19, allegedly beat and stabbed the victims to death after Belanger took an Xbox from the house where Victorino had been squatting.

Wow, I had no idea that Xbox is so good that it is worth killing seven people. That makes me wonder just how many people will PS3 be worth killing for. 14? 
I guess good quality costs lives
