HOUSTON – Nearly two years after his conviction, Antonio “AJ” Armstrong Jr.’s legal fight is far from over. The Houston man, found guilty of killing his parents, Dawn and Antonio Armstrong Sr. in 2016, is now preparing for an upcoming appeals hearing that could determine whether he gets a new trial or a chance at freedom.

Armstrong’s team, led by appellate attorney Patrick McCann with assistant from Armstrong’s original defense attorney Rick DeToto, argues new information surrounding expert testimony from the third trial deserves another look.

“There was some evidence regarding Josh that showed videos we thought mirrored the medical records exactly,” DeToto said. “The court would not allow us to have that come in.”
