a jury recommended the death penalty for Taquan C. Neblett.
Neblett, 29, was convicted of killing employee Derek Elam and shooting store owner Sami Hajibrahim in July 2004 during a robbery.
Neblett had a prior murder conviction. In 1993, at the age of 16, he killed a cab driver after he allegedly did not have enough money for cab fare.
Neblett served 9 years in prison, and was paroled in 2003, 7 months before the new shooting.
Circuit Judge Gary Payne will sentence Neblett on Sept. 28.
