They know. But they're not gonna abandon him now as it will just make it a bigger tragedy. I guess it's one of those situations where you do not know how you're gonna react until it it happens to you
Everything seems mechanical about him. And he appears more upset about being accused of killing his parents and how people view him, then being upset about an "intruder" killing his parents.
Mechanical 😂 exactly 💯. Dude is a liar, actor and full of manipulation. He was walking in the court room confident as hell... as if he was the defense attorney 😅.
I hate to say this, but I believe he’s guilty. Not once do you hear him express that he misses his parents-he looks blank, like there’s no emotion there. He doesn’t express any anger that the cops haven’t yet found the intruder and murderer. There’s a lot of holes in the story on the night that it happened. He seems extremely manipulative. His parents also called him out on constantly lying to them and “scheming,” so we know that he’s experienced in putting on an act. Sad that this happened to such a beautiful family
I want to say he's guilty but they never mentioned it but he has an older brother that has drug issue, acted weird when he came back from college, live near them and a whole lot of stuff that makes me believe his brother did it.
@@kuntakinte8508 the sister said the alarm system was always messing up, there would be times the alarm go off by itself and times when they set the alarm the alarm would unset itself.
I read somewhere that the parents had some side prostitution thing going on. I don't know if that is related or true. But let's say someone was already in the house known by the parents (the kid was in his room so he might not have known the purp was there already) and the dad's gun is easy accessible to the shooter. Then he/she shoots the victims? Maybe no arguing just pissed on some other shyt. The one thing that I can't understand is the police say the son "said" he deactivated the alarm for the police. I wish I could see the testimony of the alarm company. Could it have already be deactivated and the kid was just pushing the buttons thinking he deactivated it? Did the perp know the code and reactivated the alarm when he/she left? IF the alarm was already set and really deactivated by the accused, that is hard to explain with no other way to exit the home without setting off the alarm. On that note I think the kid is capable and smart. It's very possible he did it. Put him on that stand and the prosecutor may bring out his possible rage from that evening. He's saying some of the similar things Chris Watts said too. "I just want them back." The other question to that end is what was going on in the house that would get him so damn mad he would shoot his parents? Did they tell him he can't have a GF? Did the parents tell him he is going to a college he didn't want to go to? Did he get grounded and he was pissed? And what is up with this new evidence the Defense Team is saying his younger brother saw the shooter? WTF. When is this retrial happening?
@@dirtditch3 Thank you for the heads up on the false prostitution ring info. I just gained some new knowledge over at the Scale Of Justice YT which showed the opening statements and provided a write up of additional evidence and statements. The new info helped some of my questions in my first comment. Based on what I just read and saw, I think there is motive and evidence he commited the crime. BUT, in court I can also see how the defense put that reasonable doubt in those 4 jurors who did not convict. And he will probably go free in the retrial as well. Any date set for this retrial?

I have two boys,I’m constantly fussing with both...one is on drugs and one is on alcohol .I’m afraid of them constantly in my own house. I have a lock on my bedroom door .I am prepared to jump through the bedroom window at anytime when I hear noise at my door..
This time the apple fell very far from the tree. His parents were successful hardworking businessmen. The son is lazy, irresponsible and a liar. Plus a murderer. The alarm never went off. And why would a murderer stop off in his room, let him live as a potential witness, kill his parents, and leave? The evidence was found in AJ's room
The family dynamics in this case amazes me. The parents on both sides are not at all concerned that the evidence is within the family. Obviously there children do not matter. I would be afraid for my personal safety
He is guilty because in my 40 yrs of law enforcement I have never heard of a killer using the victims gun and then just leaving it on a counter. If a suspect leaves a gun behind its because the victim was fighting him and the gun was tossed somewhere and the cops were on the way and he just did not have the time to look for the gun.
People are allowing their emotions to guide their thinking and not using simple logic sir. It's insane that he was not found guilty in either trial. I've been following the case for years, since the murders first happened, and didn't want to believe he did it, but once I heard the facts, I just accepted it and said he clearly did it. His parents just didn't deserve what he did to them.
@Teddy Jam yes if you just look at facts, not how young he was, or how soft spoken he is or you can't see evil, and just focus on facts, he is guilty. Darlene Routier of Dallas was found guilty of killing her kids because when there is no intruder, that only leaves one person.
@@MrBayspring yep and there is not much which surprises me any longer, but the reaction of most people so willing to turn a blind eye to the facts kind of surprised me. AJ should've been convicted and sentenced for what he did after that first trial. What he did was just diabolical and he doesn't even care that his parents are dead.
@Teddy Jam I know he has done what people who are not evil just can't comprehend or except...that's why he got off two trials, because the human brain can't fathom a 16yr kid killing both of his loving parents for practically nothing....if we heard he was molested by the dad or mom, then our minds could go there.
I just noticed that when the reporter asks at 8:15 if he killed his parents, he kind of smirks a little as he says “Never, never.” It’s duper’s delight, a sign of lying. Thought I’d point it out-his body language is so interesting.
Yup the way she said you know I have to ask he fake scratch near his mouth because he was prepped for the answer. You see him sitting like that his lawyers told him to keep his hands on his knees try to control what we seeing. I just watched the closing arguments and the prosecutor’s got him. At this point they picking jurors they think will have sympathy for this kid. They high priced defense lawyers they want to be seen & they had they head ducked down the prosecutors was debunking every lie he told with hard evidence. That’s the only way he gone stay free another hung jury but if they take their oaths seriously the evidence clearly it was AJ. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing he almost had me fooled!
@Ace Anime Yes of course. It's all just circumstantial things since body language does not count as evidence in court. I think he has another trial coming up this year, so we'll see if there's any new evidence that will be presented.

"No, Never, Never," he is speaking in pass and future perfect tense. When asked if he killed his parents. He answered "No" meaning, "Don't try and get me to tell on myself and "Never, Never" meaning i will never tell on myself in a million years.
So guilty, doesn’t even try to show any remorse or care about who actually killed his parents, he’s more excited about getting the trial over with, and resuming his life.
The mom know her own child , shot the mother twice and shot the dad one time... The bottom line he’s guilty of murdering his parents.. it’s so sad 😞 No one broke inside it was an inside job for sure RIP 🙏🏽
So you don't think the other son shot the mom twice cause he was mad & jealous she married another guy & had 2 other kids when the sister clearly say he was acting weird & doing drugs but since the media paint AJ y'all fools don't have a mental of to own smh sick of all social media cause y'all just go with the narrative
@@AD-eh3xn how could Josh be hiding in his parents house while he was spending the night with his girlfriend and friends in his own house dumbass ?🤣 AJ is 1000000% guilty.
Attorneys told him to sit with his hands on his knees. There was no frustration or pain in his eyes. He has no forehead movement above his eyebrows that would indicate grief or the corners of his lips moving downward which would indicate sadness. He's clearing tears before they actually appear (out of sync) and when they do, he doesn't wipe them. He eyeballs the camera with quick glances walking in & out of the courthouse. And his duper's delight is disgusting. The reporter has to control her affirmative nods when interviewing accused murderers. She really shouldn't give any nods of approval at all. You ask the question, let them talk and the truth will leak out.
@@omniking9631 For both of you idiots if I’m such an idiot why isn’t it not plausible that the daughter did it? Is it because he’s a black boy? Because you automatically assume it’s the guy? You don’t know so you’re willing to incarcerate a little boy that lost his parents and has had to endure all this just based on what? Both of you are idiots
@@omniking9631 Well you should have specified that you dumb ass! I see you’re here to try to correct grammar but you’re too uneducated to respond to the point at hand! Enjoy your anime weirdo!!
Poor grandparents. He’s a sinful human like we all are. Capable of anything. When he was little you likely didn’t think he was capable of growing up into a brat either.
A Ugly, Master manipulater!!! The family is so in denial, sad when the family is believing his lies, protect him WHEN THEY KNOW IN THEIR CORE DUDE WAS CAPABLE AND GUILTY! SAD.
After watching videos of the trial & evidence...I think he is guilty. Sometimes it’s not what a person says, it’s what they don’t say that’s suspect...he never expressed grief about losing his parents, nor anger for the “intruder” who did it. His focus has been on his self and his image. He seems narcissistic maybe even sociopathic which would explain his calm demeanor. The fact that he was allowing his defense try to frame his brother is so telling about his character. And would explain why he called the brother 1st before he called 911, hoping he would be on the scene when police got there. and why wouldn’t he go check on his sister to see if she ok? He woke her after the police told him to.
He is def a sociopath the closing arguments told the story, love how the defense used AJ atty paper to say yes the alarm was working so were the motion detectors they didn’t bet on the motion dectectors capturing movement and time. He called the police AFTER he went to their room 31 Minutes later.....if I find my parents dead and my sisters room is on the same floor why wouldn’t I check on her or even wake her up and we both go to the closet to hide and call the police he didn’t do that! Shot his mom in the head back of ear, he couldn’t look at her and she never saw it coming... then shoot his dad in the head... he did it and the sister either knew or helped. She is the only one that even cried I feel they should focus on her she will prob break and tell.
He was definitely guilty but very manipulative and persuasive enough to the jury. He looks like your typical innocent dude but really the opposite. The evidence and stories didn’t add up. He also knew a lot of detail of the “crime”. Showed no real emotion behind losing his parents either. Way too much evidence.
I have never been affected this much by any case. It's chilling to listen to him speak because he appears so calm and always has an answer for everything. But, start a fire in the house, and can't name the person that was there with him when he fired the gun in his room before the murder. This makes ZERO sense. He is also so so strange in the way he speaks. He is probably a total sociopath. There is no other explanation for this. There is also so much blame. He doesn't seem to take responsibility for ANYTHING>
I believed he was guilty from day one. Now that I've watched this video, I KNOW he's guilty!! When she asked him if he killed his parents,he responded,no,never,never. He couldn't even say "I would never kill my parents"
He gave interviews more than this one and said the reason he was talking was because he thought people wanted to hear from him. Yes. People do. But he did not have the guts to speak in court on the stand.
I haven't heard anything about the oldest child, the big brother with the drug issues ( reported by little sister) I wonder if AJ was covering for his brother?
@@visiteurvisiteur7301 so you call him a dumbass for just stating his opinion but I guarantee if you were in front of him, You wouldn't call him a dumbass, this really shows your maturity level 😬
@@chasg8183 He had gun residue on the right side of his shirt, explain that idiot. No fingerprints on the gun because he used gloves or he clean it after using it. Again, check all the evidence of the case dumbass.
Seeing his parents pictures in the morgue during the trial- mom shot first gunshot behind the ear, dad in the head...sad really sad.... I believe he did it and his sister helped after the fact or was involved. Or they know who did... He lied sooo many times, if you haven’t watched the closing arguments of the trial go look at it so much evidence originally not known and it points to him. GrandParents are in denial, AJ and his sister is all they have left of course they will fight for them. Also, there is A LOT of money the children stand to gain, instant millionaires....
New Trial starts February 2023. I’ve just learned about this story tonight due to this kid being interviewed on 20/20. I began researching and was struck immediately by his body presence. When I saw him on 20/20 I thought maybe they got the wrong person and possibly just needed to find a fall guy! After reading and going through comments and researching.. he very well could be very Quilty and possibly his sister that was never held liable. My son is 16 and can’t began to imagine him being this evil or studying plans and ways to Murder anyone! I believe this takes a very demonic soul to kill without sue cause! These kids had everything and 2 parents! Something most kids dream of the all American wealthy well known dream family!! I’m definitely keeping my eyes open for the newest trial 2/23
20/20 was very irresponsible in their reporting and left out significant information, and have misinformed millions of viewers with the airing of that show. I've followed this case for years and want justice for Mr. & Mrs. Armstrong because he clearly did this, and it was absolutely sickening to see ABC paint him as a sympathetic figure. Anything for ratings and let the truth be damned! Smh
This is sooo messed up I just finished watching the trial before this video and I got so mad its sooo obvious he DID it. Now im curious whats going on today with this case
In the end and in the beginning it's a mystery only God knows what truly happened no matter who did it it's a who did it and that person we'll have to live with it
Why would someone kill their parents? 🥺 I don’t get it. I’m having difficulties understanding. I grew up with one parent, having both parents under one household would have been a dream for me! I’d treasure them.
Ugh, I call BS lady. “Honestly, I don’t think about the question did he do it”… “Surprised prosecutors wanted the footage”, but then says “people don’t understand how important these exclusive interviews can be”- She admits talking to him for less than 30 min over a 4 year period. I got zip from this so called investigative journalist.
He’s officially guilty as of today because he answered saying “no, never, never”. A singular “no” would have been believable. Because the word never 😂 is a consistent thought 💭
@@mayebouee8099 what doesn't make sense about that story is the older brother arrived at the scene AFTER the murder...... So how did he see it happening? I think he's trying to protect his brother and sister.....yeah I think she knew what was going down!
They put it up because there is zero and I repeat zero right for them to hold possible evidence in a Capital Murder just for you to grow your career. If they had refused the DAs office would have just gotten a search warrant and came for the footage. I love how she fully admits she is more worried about her interviews and her story ie her career than she is about two people being dead
She reminds me of the reporter character "Gail Weathers" from the original Scream movie. Some reporters love cases such as this because it elevates their own celebrity.
He did it. I watched the trials and he is definitely guilty. The evidence in the prosecution and the fact that all doors were locked and him inside, it’s obvious. Guilty as sin.
Yes Indeed, he tries to make himself perfect and say the right words to make people think he's innocent but dude is not. He was upset with his parents & was a spoil bratt who felt entitle to everything even if it took his parents life. He started the tears to make others feel sad for him.. when she asked did you kill your parents, his response was never, never.. his answer should have been No! By looking into his eyes, you see evil, & a liar.. who needs help mentally. He will kill again if he gets away with his parents murder. YOU PEOPLE KNOW HE KILLED HIS PARENTS & WON'T FIND HIM GUILTY, SHAME ON YOU ALL.... GOD SEE'S EVERYTHING AND HE WILL HANDLE THAT BOY,
It was 4 ppl in the home at the time.. 2 ppl died and the other 2 are still alive.. there was only a couple of possibilities.... it isn't that hard ... the ghost of africa certainly didn't do it
If no signs of an intruder, and only the family knew where the gun was I guess, it's just those who lived in the house.. then who did it and why he/ she did it..If the family was such a happy family ... I don't understand who did it why they did it
This is what is wrong with reporters. Yes, it actually is about weather or not he killed his parents. It’s not about the story unfolding in front of us. Perfect example of today’s reporters who really value sensationalism over uncovering the truth, and reporting facts. Bravo lady ... not.
What is the point of your podcast when all we hear is what you can't ask . And all about the struggles as a reporter. I didn't learn anything new from you. And why does a reporter ask a suspect if they committed the crime? Like the suspect is going to s confess to you
I'm not the smartest tool in the shed but even I know home intruders bring their own gun, they don't just MAGICALLY find the owners gun while they're SLEEPING that is kept in the drawer next to them!! And the most childish part of this whole murder is when the suppose killer 'brothers" left that idiotic note saying oh yea btw I've been watching ur house, get me!! Hahaha sounds to me like a 16-17 yr unprofessional ROOKIE KILLER. Come on America, Wake Up!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What if the half brother disarmed the alarm, shot them, and then set the alarm back before he left. My alarm system allows you to set it before you leave to protect the ppl still inside.
Is he living off his parents money? His parents were very successful. He isn’t. Not on the road to be successful that is for sure. He was jealous perhaps. Angry. Very angry. Parents were killed with dad’s gun that was in the house. Let’s get real. He had gun residue oh his shirt. He is a perpetual liar who had potential and was driving his mom and dad crazy.
If there is one thing life experiences have tought me, its that you never really know what one is capeable of. You may think you know a person, but you only know what they let you know and what you see...you do not know what you are not seeing! I had a man in live with me. Seeminly smitten with me...come to find out he was living a double life, cheating on me with a women 35yrs older than him and living an online persona of one who wears diapers and acts like babies. I lived with man and never knew! Anything is possible!
He’s super guilty , he doesn’t ever talk about getting revenge or wanting to find the killer
Thank you... you're a genius 😐...red pill...
🤡 trying to troll on a murder ?? Clown behavior move around with that
People are so silly...the grandparents don't know him...they are just familiar with some of his behaviors....he did it
definitely
Not one person in the family is saying we want to find the real killer, They know he did it
Yep and shameful to stand behind him
They know. But they're not gonna abandon him now as it will just make it a bigger tragedy. I guess it's one of those situations where you do not know how you're gonna react until it it happens to you
You know how many parents say their kid is not capable doing something then later find out that they were capable and actually did it?
Everything seems mechanical about him. And he appears more upset about being accused of killing his parents and how people view him, then being upset about an "intruder" killing his parents.
He’s a narcissist. There’s something off about him. The blank stare the arrogance.

& his ass knew the codes also or could've already been hiding out in the house
@@AD-eh3xn how could Josh be hiding in his parents house while he was spending the night with his girlfriend and friends in his own house dumbass ?🤣
AJ is 1000000% guilty.
Aj did it. I’m happy he will rot in prison
Saying Never is not normal
Attorneys told him to sit with his hands on his knees. There was no frustration or pain in his eyes. He has no forehead movement above his eyebrows that would indicate grief or the corners of his lips moving downward which would indicate sadness. He's clearing tears before they actually appear (out of sync) and when they do, he doesn't wipe them. He eyeballs the camera with quick glances walking in & out of the courthouse. And his duper's delight is disgusting. The reporter has to control her affirmative nods when interviewing accused murderers. She really shouldn't give any nods of approval at all. You ask the question, let them talk and the truth will leak out.
He’s definitely guilty. No signs of an intruder. His family is trying to protect him.
Your an idiot!!!
@@cblux it's you're, idiot. Smh
@@omniking9631 For both of you idiots if I’m such an idiot why isn’t it not plausible that the daughter did it? Is it because he’s a black boy? Because you automatically assume it’s the guy? You don’t know so you’re willing to incarcerate a little boy that lost his parents and has had to endure all this just based on what? Both of you are idiots
@@cblux I'm saying you're an idiot for using incorrect grammar, while calling someone else an idiot. Smart ass.
@@omniking9631 Well you should have specified that you dumb ass! I see you’re here to try to correct grammar but you’re too uneducated to respond to the point at hand! Enjoy your anime weirdo!!
doesnt look like someone who lost loved ones at all!
Poor grandparents. He’s a sinful human like we all are. Capable of anything. When he was little you likely didn’t think he was capable of growing up into a brat either.
WE ALL ARE SINFUL BUT WE ALL DONT KILL BOTH OUR PARENTS SO STOP THE BS
A Ugly, Master manipulater!!! The family is so in denial, sad when the family is believing his lies, protect him WHEN THEY KNOW IN THEIR CORE DUDE WAS CAPABLE AND GUILTY! SAD.
After watching videos of the trial & evidence...I think he is guilty. Sometimes it’s not what a person says, it’s what they don’t say that’s suspect...he never expressed grief about losing his parents, nor anger for the “intruder” who did it. His focus has been on his self and his image. He seems narcissistic maybe even sociopathic which would explain his calm demeanor. The fact that he was allowing his defense try to frame his brother is so telling about his character. And would explain why he called the brother 1st before he called 911, hoping he would be on the scene when police got there. and why wouldn’t he go check on his sister to see if she ok? He woke her after the police told him to.
G Johnson Total sociopath. I agree with your comments. Ugh.
He is def a sociopath the closing arguments told the story, love how the defense used AJ atty paper to say yes the alarm was working so were the motion detectors they didn’t bet on the motion dectectors capturing movement and time. He called the police AFTER he went to their room 31 Minutes later.....if I find my parents dead and my sisters room is on the same floor why wouldn’t I check on her or even wake her up and we both go to the closet to hide and call the police he didn’t do that! Shot his mom in the head back of ear, he couldn’t look at her and she never saw it coming... then shoot his dad in the head... he did it and the sister either knew or helped. She is the only one that even cried I feel they should focus on her she will prob break and tell.
Faith Love & Dreams Yesssss! I can't understand how this is not crystal clear to folks. Every word he says is about him. He sounds so detached .
@@deehowe4141 just saw he had a baby boy Dec 2020 with the girlfriend his IG is AJ_Armstrong
Faith Love & Dreams Whaaaaa??!!!! Look at that. Hmmmm. Thanks for the updates!
Kid's kill their patents, and it's usually the good parents
He was definitely guilty but very manipulative and persuasive enough to the jury. He looks like your typical innocent dude but really the opposite. The evidence and stories didn’t add up. He also knew a lot of detail of the “crime”. Showed no real emotion behind losing his parents either. Way too much evidence.
Ask him if he is looking for the killer. I BET NOT.
The only innocent one is the 12 yr old sister. My prayers go out to her only.
bad statement
They all know who did it lol even the sister
I have never been affected this much by any case. It's chilling to listen to him speak because he appears so calm and always has an answer for everything. But, start a fire in the house, and can't name the person that was there with him when he fired the gun in his room before the murder. This makes ZERO sense. He is also so so strange in the way he speaks. He is probably a total sociopath. There is no other explanation for this. There is also so much blame. He doesn't seem to take responsibility for ANYTHING>
He is 100000000% a sociopath
He sent a message when he shot his mom in the head twice.
I believed he was guilty from day one. Now that I've watched this video, I KNOW he's guilty!! When she asked him if he killed his parents,he responded,no,never,never. He couldn't even say "I would never kill my parents"
😂 exactly what I noticed
Guilty, is what AJ Armstrong is.
He gave interviews more than this one and said the reason he was talking was because he thought people wanted to hear from him. Yes. People do. But he did not have the guts to speak in court on the stand.
Not about guts. Followed his lawyer advise.
The opposition team would have mauled him....
That boys a narcissist if I ever seen one
Exactly
I haven't heard anything about the oldest child, the big brother with the drug issues ( reported by little sister) I wonder if AJ was covering for his brother?
Lol, AJ did it and the brother wasn't in the house. Check the evidence instead of defending a murderer dumbass.
@@visiteurvisiteur7301 so you call him a dumbass for just stating his opinion but I guarantee if you were in front of him, You wouldn't call him a dumbass, this really shows your maturity level 😬
If he didn’t have any gun residue on him and his DNA wasn’t on the gun, he might be innocent. Maybe the brother did do it and not AJ
@@chasg8183 He had gun residue on the right side of his shirt, explain that idiot. No fingerprints on the gun because he used gloves or he clean it after using it. Again, check all the evidence of the case dumbass.
Momo...
There's a major difference between covering for someone... Or to take the blame for someone...
My my he wasn't even crying at the police car the night the murder happen straight dry face like seriously that cold.
Finally justice served.
This brudda did it
1000000% sure he did it.
Now he has a newborn son...this is the worse time to have a child because he’s now gonna go to prison probably for life and never see his son
Highly doubt it
He got out 3 years ago I seen his release video
no. he beat the case. they need new evidence to try again
@@speakvanholding247etclo
@@speakvanholding247etche in jail now after his 3rd trial
Seeing his parents pictures in the morgue during the trial- mom shot first gunshot behind the ear, dad in the head...sad really sad....
I believe he did it and his sister helped after the fact or was involved. Or they know who did...
He lied sooo many times, if you haven’t watched the closing arguments of the trial go look at it so much evidence originally not known and it points to him.
GrandParents are in denial, AJ and his sister is all they have left of course they will fight for them. Also, there is A LOT of money the children stand to gain, instant millionaires....
He did it alone ,sister was sleep.
@@KDRRR711 FACTS
Do know if the whole trial was on video ? I read where it wasn't. I wondered how you saw the closing arguments.
Thanks
He have had the same emotions every since it happened l feel so sad for the parents murdered cause he was mad because they were gone cut him off….
New Trial starts February 2023. I’ve just learned about this story tonight due to this kid being interviewed on 20/20. I began researching and was struck immediately by his body presence. When I saw him on 20/20 I thought maybe they got the wrong person and possibly just needed to find a fall guy! After reading and going through comments and researching.. he very well could be very Quilty and possibly his sister that was never held liable. My son is 16 and can’t began to imagine him being this evil or studying plans and ways to Murder anyone! I believe this takes a very demonic soul to kill without sue cause! These kids had everything and 2 parents! Something most kids dream of the all American wealthy well known dream family!! I’m definitely keeping my eyes open for the newest trial 2/23
20/20 was very irresponsible in their reporting and left out significant information, and have misinformed millions of viewers with the airing of that show. I've followed this case for years and want justice for Mr. & Mrs. Armstrong because he clearly did this, and it was absolutely sickening to see ABC paint him as a sympathetic figure. Anything for ratings and let the truth be damned! Smh
AJ IS GUILTY ASF
@@teddyjam8134 AJ tried to paint a picture of innocence; not 20/20.
TRIED.
EVERYTHING AJ said was a lie and BS. His body language spoke volumes.
Good news he’s officially guilty as of today after his 3rd trial
This is sooo messed up I just finished watching the trial before this video and I got so mad its sooo obvious he DID it.
Now im curious whats going on today with this case
New trial starts February 2023
He was found guilty today during his 3rd trial
In the end and in the beginning it's a mystery only God knows what truly happened no matter who did it it's a who did it and that person we'll have to live with it
He did it
I believe he did it and I believe he is a psychopath.
No mystery. Listen to both closing arguments and tell me how much mystery is left.
They say his brother did it
8:19 at this moment i felt he was lying
Its sad, the family threw Josh under a moving bus!!!!
Why would someone kill their parents? 🥺 I don’t get it. I’m having difficulties understanding. I grew up with one parent, having both parents under one household would have been a dream for me! I’d treasure them.
if you had both it wouldnt be a dream for you to have both
Under one roof !!🙄🙄
Under one roof !!🙄🙄
Under one roof !!🙄🙄
Some of these kids today are off the chain. They'd kill their parents just for taking their phone
Ugh, I call BS lady. “Honestly, I don’t think about the question did he do it”… “Surprised prosecutors wanted the footage”, but then says “people don’t understand how important these exclusive interviews can be”-
She admits talking to him for less than 30 min over a 4 year period. I got zip from this so called investigative journalist.
This guy is guilty
The facts don't lie he is a monster 👿he manipulate his family 👀
He killed both his parents i believe that whole family mentally ill
Great job Courtney 👍🏾 please keep us updated (January 2021)
He should have just ran away from home and this situation would have been very different
He’s officially guilty as of today because he answered saying “no, never, never”. A singular “no” would have been believable. Because the word never 😂 is a consistent thought 💭
This interview was about Courtney not the case!
Does anyone know what has happened with this? I can’t find anything Re: this case after March 2020. Did a retrial happen or what? TIA!
I’ve been wondering about this too!
Says online it'll happen this month but this month is almost over
@@mayebouee8099 what doesn't make sense about that story is the older brother arrived at the scene AFTER the murder...... So how did he see it happening? I think he's trying to protect his brother and sister.....yeah I think she knew what was going down!
It’s on utube second trail was a mistrial third trail coming in feb.
Yes he is officially guilty after his 3rd trial concluded today
They put it up because there is zero and I repeat zero right for them to hold possible evidence in a Capital Murder just for you to grow your career. If they had refused the DAs office would have just gotten a search warrant and came for the footage. I love how she fully admits she is more worried about her interviews and her story ie her career than she is about two people being dead
She reminds me of the reporter character "Gail Weathers" from the original Scream movie. Some reporters love cases such as this because it elevates their own celebrity.
She is also disgusting
IT HAPPENS MORE OFTEN THAN YOU THINK, REMEMBER BART IN SUGARLAND TRYING TO KILL HIS WHOLE FAMILY MIRACULOUSLY FATHER LIVED
He did it
She is a politician … do you think that he did it? Why bring that question up if you are going to just talk in circles
I also believe his guilty
He did it. I watched the trials and he is definitely guilty. The evidence in the prosecution and the fact that all doors were locked and him inside, it’s obvious. Guilty as sin.
So TRUE, I watched it too and he is 100000000000000000000% guilty.
Yes Indeed, he tries to make himself perfect and say the right words to make people think he's innocent but dude is not. He was upset with his parents & was a spoil bratt who felt entitle to everything even if it took his parents life. He started the tears to make others feel sad for him.. when she asked did you kill your parents, his response was never, never.. his answer should have been No! By looking into his eyes, you see evil, & a liar.. who needs help mentally. He will kill again if he gets away with his parents murder. YOU PEOPLE KNOW HE KILLED HIS PARENTS & WON'T FIND HIM GUILTY, SHAME ON YOU ALL.... GOD SEE'S EVERYTHING AND HE WILL HANDLE THAT BOY,

I don't think he'll last too long in prison.
that moment that he is sitting beside his grandmother talking, she wouldnt look at him,,,,,it is as like she knows deep down he did it
Anything new on this?

It was 4 ppl in the home at the time.. 2 ppl died and the other 2 are still alive.. there was only a couple of possibilities.... it isn't that hard ... the ghost of africa certainly didn't do it
If no signs of an intruder, and only the family knew where the gun was I guess, it's just those who lived in the house.. then who did it and why he/ she did it..If the family was such a happy family ... I don't understand who did it why they did it
Aj did it. Because is parents started to put away his toys.
He did it... I wouldn't be surprised if the sister was involved also..
Not at all...she was a 12 yr old child
Cruel of you to day such a thing
Reminds me of Chris Watts.
His eyes 👀!! are tortured.. he's a robot. G-U-I-L-T-Y😮
This is what is wrong with reporters. Yes, it actually is about weather or not he killed his parents. It’s not about the story unfolding in front of us. Perfect example of today’s reporters who really value sensationalism over uncovering the truth, and reporting facts. Bravo lady ... not.
I cant stand her tone or voice
I just want to point out this reporter milked this case for all its worth
Cold hes not a kid hes a monster
Is the family in denial?
Why they never talk to the outher son
Yes
They did and police cleard him. AJ did it. Watch the trial dumbass.
IF NOT HIM THEN WHO?
Guilty!!
He is GUILTY as sin...
You are handsome
The way he sipped his coffee, I can tell he guilty !!!. 😳☕
are you Columbo
what fuckery is that
Sob got away with with double murder.
😂 not today
Amen to that!
U knw wht is capable of Mam but u'l never knw da other side of him cos I thnk he's dangerous
The grandparents will know what he's capable of when he kills one of them for not giving him what he wants.
What is the point of your podcast when all we hear is what you can't ask . And all about the struggles as a reporter. I didn't learn anything new from you.
And why does a reporter ask a suspect if they committed the crime? Like the suspect is going to s
confess to you
Well why ducking talk to him... if all he gonna do is deny and fake cry
A.J. is totally putting on a FRONT.
He is guilty asf.
I'm not the smartest tool in the shed but even I know home intruders bring their own gun, they don't just MAGICALLY find the owners gun while they're SLEEPING that is kept in the drawer next to them!! And the most childish part of this whole murder is when the suppose killer 'brothers" left that idiotic note saying oh yea btw I've been watching ur house, get me!! Hahaha sounds to me like a 16-17 yr unprofessional ROOKIE KILLER. Come on America, Wake Up!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
But he looks happy to me
WE know our grandson lol
Why are the trials not being televised?
How did the person get out?
What if the half brother disarmed the alarm, shot them, and then set the alarm back before he left. My alarm system allows you to set it before you leave to protect the ppl still inside.
You didn’t watch the case and you have no clue about how alarms work or watched the prosecution on the alarm situation. Please don’t comment.
I kno u can remotely arm an disarm your alarm esp from your phone...
You look good ma'am
Is he living off his parents money? His parents were very successful. He isn’t. Not on the road to be successful that is for sure. He was jealous perhaps. Angry. Very angry. Parents were killed with dad’s gun that was in the house. Let’s get real. He had gun residue oh his shirt. He is a perpetual liar who had potential and was driving his mom and dad crazy.
If there is one thing life experiences have tought me, its that you never really know what one is capeable of. You may think you know a person, but you only know what they let you know and what you see...you do not know what you are not seeing! I had a man in live with me. Seeminly smitten with me...come to find out he was living a double life, cheating on me with a women 35yrs older than him and living an online persona of one who wears diapers and acts like babies. I lived with man and never knew! Anything is possible!
Guilty as all get out .
Family saying they know him he wouldn’t do it they think they know but they don’t take a lie detector test he guilty
