A jury has been selected for the third trial of A.J. Armstrong, who is facing charges for the alleged murder of his parents in 2016.

A jury has been seated in the third trial against A.J. Armstrong, who is accused of killing his parent back in 2016. The announcement was made on Wednesday about the jury being seated with opening arguments scheduled to begin on June 5. Antonio Armstrong Jr. was back in court Wednesday for a pre-trial hearing. He’s being tried for a third time on capital murder charges for the deaths of his parents inside their Bellaire homes in 2016.

Armstrong is charged with shooting his parents Antonio Sr. and Dawn Armstrong to death as they slept in their Bellaire home back in July 2016 when he was 16 years old. The couple was killed with Antonio Sr's handgun, which police investigators found on the family's kitchen counter.
