HOUSTON – Antonio Armstrong Jr. is talking about his capital murder conviction for the first time, in an exclusive interview with KPRC 2 reporter Rilwan Balogun and KPRC 2 Investigates producer Jason Nguyen that will stream in its entirety on KPRC 2+ Thursday night.
Armstrong was convicted in August of shooting and killing his parents in their southwest Houston home in 2016, when he was just 16 years old. He’s now serving a life sentence inside the Robertson Unit, a maximum-security prison in Abilene, Texas.
‘The A.J. Armstrong Interview’ will be a different experience for our audience. For the first time, not only will you hear live commentary from Balogun and Nguyen -- but you’ll be also able to ask questions about Armstrong’s interview and share your reactions to his answers in real time.
