Grant Amato - Police Interrogation - Family found shot dead, parents and brother

A Florida man convicted of murdering his family over his relationship with a web cam girl was spared the death penalty Monday and instead will spend life behind bars.

A jury recommended 30-year-old Grant Amato spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole for what prosecutors have said was the cold and calculated slayings of his parents, Chad and Margaret Amato, and brother Cody Amato on Jan. 24.

Prosecutors contend Grant Amato killed his family after they demanded he cut off his relationship with a Bulgarian web cam model on an adult website, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Before the brutal slayings, Grant Amato had stolen approximately $200,000 from his father and brother to facilitate his relationship with the webcam model, named Silvie.

Prosecutors believe Grant systematically killed each member of his family on Jan. 24, first killing his mother around 4:45 p.m. She was discovered “face-down dead at her computer desk,” prosecutor Stewart Stone told the jury.

Grant then killed his father when he came home from work, before waiting for more than four hours with the dead bodies of his parents for his brother Cody to come home from work. Grant then shot Cody and staged the scene to look like an apparent murder-suicide, with Cody being the gunman, prosecutors said.

However, police soon arrested Grant and charged him with the crimes.
Grant’s surviving brother, Jason Amato, spoke in court Monday to describe his tremendous loss.
“It’s hard to go through the grieving process when there are multiple losses and uncertainty in the future,” he said, according to local station WESH. “Through all this, though, I’m a proud Amato, and I will rise up smarter and stronger than before.”

Prosecutors had sought the death penalty in the case, however, jurors were unable to reach the unanimous decision required in the state for capital punishment.

Grant’s defense team had argued during the trial that the prosecution’s timeline for the murders did not fit the evidence.

Defense attorney Jeff Dowdy described the jury’s decision to recommend life in prison “bittersweet.”
“We fought hard for the guilt phase, unfortunately that did not go our way. But saving our client’s life, that’s the so-called prize in this. Our heart goes out to Jason Amato,” he said.
The defense now plans to appeal the verdict.

Prosecutors contend that the jury’s decision to opt for life in prison was likely made out of mercy.
“I think it was a matter of pure mercy,” Stone said, according to WOFL. “It’s very difficult to get 12 people to agree to impose the death penalty. It’s a very difficult decision to do.”

Police Cadet Rapist on To Catch A Predator Michael Patterson Police Interrogation

Police Cadet Rapist on To Catch A Predator Michael Patterson Police Interrogation

Police Cadet Rapist on To Catch A Predator Michael Patterson Police InterrogationMichael Joseph Patterson, otherwise known as jon_raven2000 was a predator caught in the Bowling Green, Kentucky installment of To Catch a Predator. He is perhaps best known for screaming his ass off while being arrested by the police.BiographyPrior to the sting operation, Patterson was a reserve police officer in Lebron, Indiana, who was fired for using police car lights to pull someone over, impersonating an on-duty officer.Patterson drove 5 hours away from Kouts, Indiana to the sting house in Bowling Green to meet up with a girl he believed to be thirteen. Within 2 hours of being acquainted with the decoy online, he drives to her house and talks to her over the phone on the way. During the conversation, he discloses that he carries a gun with him everywhere, so the sting team gave the decoy special instructions to make sure he was unarmed upon arrival. The decoy gives a series of verbal commands to Patterson to prove that he is unarmed, and he giddily does so without suspecting a thing. Once he enters the house he gives into the decoy's small talk, admiring the house and falsely telling her that he's a detective lieutenant. After disclosing this he is greeted by Chris Hansen, who exercises his own detective skills and asks Patterson why he's there. Patterson cites his loneliness and his ongoing divorce as reasons to commit statutory rape.After chuckling at hearing some of his chat log lines, he is let go by Chris, only to come face to face with a group of officers (who are advised to act more swiftly than usual due to the earlier suspicion of him being armed).Upon seeing the officers, he steps back into the house and makes a run for it, being shot with a taser gun as a result. Only one of the prods of the taser connects with Patterson's body, which allowed him to run even further through the house without being electrocuted. Like a scene straight from The Walking Dead, he is quickly ambushed from all sides and taken down while he screams and begs hysterically.AftermathOn June 11, 2008, Patterson was convicted of Traveling In Interstate Commerce For The Purpose Of Engaging In A Sexual Act With A Minor. He received 7 years in federal prison and 10 years supervised release. He also received three years and ten months by the state of Kentucky. Both sentences were served concurrently.In 2011 Patterson represented himself in a civil lawsuit against NBC Universal, Inc., asking for $40,000,000 each in monetary and punitive damages, as well as injunctive relief in the form of having all information about him taken off television and NBC's website. Patterson's allegations include:He was "lured" to the sting house, and that the decoy took advantage of his "vulnerability".NBC Universal, Inc.'s "libel, slander and defamatory statements" have caused him mental and emotional stress and ruined his reputation.NBC Universal, Inc.'s participation in his arrest and search violated his constitutional rights under the Fourth Amendment.State law claims for intentional disclosure of private facts, intrusion on the right to be left alone, harassment/intentional infliction of emotional distress, and negligence.NBC Universal, Inc. is liable for violating the "Journalistic Code of Ethics."Patterson’s complaint was entirely void of any factual allegations regarding his claim for negligence, and the case was dismissed.TriviaHis scream is commonly compared to Homer Simpson and Tom from Tom and Jerry.He is the only tased predator to withstand the taser shot before being taken down.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/best-of-reddit-stories-2025-cheating-true-crime-aita-and-nsfw-stories--6476242/support.
