AJ Armstrong, who is now a father and a husband, has spent his adult life charged in his parents' murders. Here's what's next as he prepares to face a jury for a third time since 2019.
Jury selection for A.J. Armstrong's third capital murder trial is set to start soon. AJ is accused of killing his parents Dawn and Antonio in 2016.Armstrong, now 23 and a father himself, is accused of killing his parents in their southwest Houston home seven years go, when he was just 16 years old.Jury selection is expected to take three to four weeks with the trial set to start on June 1.
The Harris County District Attorney's Office responded to that motion by filing its own strongly-worded motion on Friday seeking a continuance. Defense attorney Rick DeToto offered no comment but his motion reads: "By withholding this information from the defense during trial, the right to a fair trial was denied."
Since his last trial, Armstrong has married the mother of his son, his high school girlfriend, Kate Ober, who testified on his behalf during his first trial. Big milestones for anyone, but Armstrong has yet to move on with his life, as investigators maintain he is the only person who could have killed his parents, which prosecutors will attempt to prove to a third jury.
