Craig Wall, who was convicted of killing his girlfriend and infant son in 2010, was sentenced to death by a judge Friday.
- Judge sentences Craig Wall to death in killing of girlfriend, baby
- Wall had asked for death penalty
- Wall represented himself in sentencing phase of trial
Wall stabbed his girlfriend, Laura Taft, 29, to death in February 2010, about two weeks after killing their 5-week-old son in Clearwater. Taft was killed days after Wall was released from jail for violating a domestic violence injunction.
Wall pleaded guilty to Taft's slaying and no contest to killing his son. He represented himself in the sentencing phase of his trial and said he wanted to be sentenced to death.
"The presentation of my case and my mitigation is my constitutional right," Wall said at the time. "This is my case. This is my life. All the choices are mine alone to make."
A University of South Florida specialist said Wall exhibited psychopathic traits.
After Taft's stabbing, Wall was found passed out in his car in Sumter County.
