The court heard Peters, then 32, had stabbed Tereaupii Akai, 50, twice in the neck before cutting up his body and throwing it in a council bin.
About eight months later, Peters stabbed 57-year-old Bevan James Frost to death while giving him a massage in bed before cutting up his body.
Detectives investigating Mr Akai's disappearance found Mr Frost's remains in the bath in Peters' flat.
