According to testimony, the suspects took Sam Murray to the basement, where they tied him up and killed him. Linda Murray was upstairs making breakfast when the men came upstairs demanding jewelry and cash.
In January, Amanda was charged with those crimes, and the Oakland County Prosecutor's Office said that their investigation found Amanda "played an active role in the planning and cover-up of the crime."
