Why was GA in scrubs when he was interrogated? He hadn't been employed for months, least of all in a health care setting. There was 0 reason to be wearing scrubs.
Amaro had a job interview a day after the murders for a nursing position (or so he claims).

(NOTE: CourtTV - witness name spelled Erika Johannsen)

Grant Amato Day 6 Witnesses Erica Johansson, Samuel Coors & Jason Amato​

 
I recently watched the documentary on Paramount+ on Grant and this case.
I didn’t realize until I watched that docu that Grant admitted to the filmmakers that he did this crime. He also mentioned that it was not for the “girl” from online despite everyone mentioning that.

Then again he also spent time essentially laughing at how he had law enforcement go on a wild goose chase for the murder weapon, after giving them details that resulted in a trip where they found nothing. He seemed pretty gleeful when the filmmaker told them they came back empty handed…so who knows what he was really telling the truth about or not.

Anyone know if he dropped his appeal? Or what status that is at, if any? Thx in advance

I can not access the county this case was in - this was his case # Seminole County #2019CF000337A. Amato’s appeal will be considered by the Fifth District Court of Appeal in Daytona Beach. 8/26/20 Update: Filed appeal of conviction

If you can get into Daytona Beach-5th District court - you can find out. Let us know if you do! :)

I don't believe him.

Grant was clearly addicted to that cam-girl site, and in love with the Bulgarian model. His parents were the main obstacle, preventing him from interacting with her. He was completely addicted. Not only that, but cold-blooded killers are not the most reliable people to interview. Most lie. I think grant may be trying to save face, having come to the realisation that the cam girl used him for his money, and had no feelings for him.
