Murder and The Sex Cam Model
Florida v. Grant Amato. The Amatos were a close knit, middle class family with three professional sons, who enjoyed Florida Gators football games together. So it was a shock when Margaret and Chad Amato and their youngest son Cody were found dead, shot execution-style in their suburban Seminole Florida home. Suspicion quickly turned to middle son Grant, a trained nurse, who had quarrelled with his family over money he had stolen from them to pay for the attentions of a Buglarian sex model on a pay-per-view website. Grant’s high powered public defense team argued that despite the horrific bloody scene there was no blood found on their client and no forensic evidence of any kind linking him to the murders. The drama in the courtroom heightened as Grant’s sole surviving brother, Jason Amato, took the stand.
