[Music] there's a house up on fire on the other side of the fence there's fire coming out of the window i
00:00:16
think they're screaming and crying i don't know yeah i think so the elite detective
00:00:25
called me he said there was an accident in your parents house and he said there was a fire your
00:00:35
parents didn't didn't make it i just started hysterically crying i flew up on the first flight i'm out
00:00:44
the next day and that's when they told us what had really happened the fire wasn't an accident my parents
00:00:53
had been shot and the fire was a cover how why and who neighbors on this usually quiet street
00:01:01
are stunned it's not real i wanted to know why this happened to scott and janet i
00:01:07
wanted to know who did this they were great people they were giving people and that's not the way it's supposed to
00:01:14
go did your parents have any kind of conflict with people that might want to hurt them not that i'm
00:01:22
aware of now it didn't make sense that this could or would happen how soon did investigators focus
00:01:32
on brandon pettit as the killer instantly they focused on brandon as soon as one
00:01:38
of the neighbors said oh they have a son that's weird is there any physical evidence
00:01:42
that ties your brother to the murder no there is no dna there are no fingerprints there is no blood
00:01:48
but what you do have here is a litany of statements and actions that point to brandon the most damaging evidence
00:01:58
against brandon came out of his own mouth he's terrible in his ability to figure
00:02:04
out what's appropriate he referred to his parents and that he wanted his dad dead i mean
00:02:11
this is like just a few weeks before the murder and then you have more than once
00:02:16
before your parents body said what you've been doing it's clear that your brother isn't like
00:02:25
everyone else isn't it he told them he had asperger's when somebody's autistic they're different than you he doesn't
00:02:34
act the same way as you were i might act here's your dad laying on a body bag anyway you're already past it
00:02:41
i'm not past it you have no emotional response do you want me to break down and cry
00:02:47
because i don't normally try autism is the reason i focused on him it's the reason
00:02:53
that they became convinced that he was guilty i don't know who killed my parents no i
00:02:59
don't no no your brother was working that night right he has an alibi yeah you murdered
00:03:09
your parents i didn't do anything he intended it he desired it and he did it i think
00:03:14
there's a lot more to this story i love my parents words don't make you a [Music]
00:03:23
murderer
