According to the report, at 11:47 PM on a Tuesday in Houston, Texas, seventeen-year-old Brandon Mitchell walked into his parents' bedroom carrying a baseball bat. The home security system his father had installed just three months earlier captured audio and video of what happened next. The footage was shown and played during the trial. The motive for what Brandon did was documented in text messages recovered from his phone. Earlier that evening, his parents had grounded him for two weeks and confiscated his iPhone after discovering he had been skipping school to spend time with friends. Brandon had begged them to reconsider, arguing he needed his phone for emergencies and to stay in touch with people. When his parents refused and told him the grounding would stand, Brandon went to his room without further argument.

The report also stated that Brandon texted her girlfriend and told her that his parents must pay for what they had done to hime, confiscating his iPhone. His gf thought he was only joking to release his anger. He said he doesn't like to be controlled by his parents, so he decided to kill them. At trial, the prosecution would present evidence that Brandon had spent the next three hours planning his parents' murders. He had googled how to kill someone quickly, thinking he wouldn't be jailed because he was under 18.

In addition to the report, during his Google search, he learned of the easy access to his parents ' assets and the bank account and stored them on Google Cloud. When everything was accomplished, at around 11:30 PM, Brandon had retrieved his father's baseball bat from the garage. The security system captured him carrying it through the house, pausing outside his parents' bedroom door, then opening it and entering. The next scene showed how Brandon murdered his parents using a baseball bat. So, he was sentenced to death. Texas has a death penalty, and age is not an excuse for a criminal to enjoy freedom.

That story is dark and sinister. A child plotting murder on an iPhone is madness on another level. That's not normal anger, it's a dark spirit. A family was broken apart badly.

But it's also a lesson. Parenting and mental health must be taken seriously. Young people need guidance, not forceful control. Hope is for those who can spot red flags early and prevent tragedy. Stay true.

It's a sickening reality, the son lacks love to his parents. His relatives couldn't believe while they witnessed the death sentence and the execution on his final journey on earth. He was executed through lethal injection. I'm wondering why the criminal son didn't understand the intention of his parents. They wanted him to be good at school, but instead he landed shorty in jail and died through lethal injection. The hell awaited him. Ingrate son, evil and murderous.
