Houston teen charged with killing NFL player dad and mom in Bellaire blames prostitution ring
Texas Police News ^ | Sept 17, 2018

A Houston woman is expected to testify Monday about allegations of a prostitution ring and death threats that, if true, would be key to the defense of a Bellaire teen accused of killing both his parents as they slept. Antonio Armstrong Jr. was 16 when he was arrested on a charge of capital murder, accused of fatally shooting his mother, Dawn, and father, former NFL player Antonio Armstrong, in their beds on July 29, 2016. He has been certified to stand trial as an adult and faces the possibility of life in prison if convicted.

Armstrong’s defense lawyers have accused the Harris County District Attorney’s office of concealing an audiotape of an interview Maxine Adams gave Houston police that detailed her allegations, which the defense says bolsters the teenager’s story that the couple was killed in a home invasion.
