The pretrial hearing on Thursday will focus on whether some evidence can be used at trial. The brand new jury will not be present for this.

A pre-trial hearing for A.J. Armstrong will be held Thursday ahead of his third murder trial. The other two trials ended in hung juries.

They include two former marines, engineers in oil and gas, a former teacher, and an employee from Space Center Houston. There's a lot at stake with this third trial. If found guilty, Armstrong, who is now a father and a husband, could spend the rest of his life in prison. "If you are on the defense team going into this third trial, is your focus on getting a not guilty verdict or getting a hung jury for the third time?" ABC13 asked.
