Joran van der Sloot, a key suspect in the 2005 disappearance of U.S. teen Natalee Holloway, was sentenced Friday to 28 years in a Peruvian prison for the May 2010 murder of 21-year-old Stephany Flores.
The 24-year-old Dutch national confessed to the charges of "qualified murder" and simple robbery in Flores' death.
Investigators said they believed van der Sloot killed the Peruvian woman in his Lima hotel room after she found something related to the Holloway case on his computer.
Van der Sloot was among the last people seen with Holloway before she went missing on the island of Aruba. He was detained twice, but never charged, in the Alabama teenager's disappearance. Her body has never been found, but an Alabama judge signed an order Thursday declaring Holloway legally dead.
