What does two attackers mean?

Also, I STILL think the guys were already in the house , hiding. She could’ve waited til Matt fell asleep for them to come in and begin the attack. Thereve also been others who have harmed THEMSELVES to make it look like they were also attacked. Look way back to the Dr Jeffrey McDonald . He knifed himself ( mostly flesh wounds) , to make him look as if he were also under attack. Sadly, his wife and 3 little girls were killed.
Another case was Diane Downs. She had a new boyfriend who didn’t like kids, but she had 3. She took them for a drive, shot them all, then shot herself in the forearm( another minor wound), to make it look as if she weeper also a victim.

Someone brought up a good point on the Facebook page. 2 guns used more than likely would mean 2 shooters. Each gun would hold at least 5 rounds or more. No one would fire a couple rounds from one gun then switch to the other. They would fire all rounds out of one then switch to the other which is inconsistent with the round count on file. Looks like 2 shooters.

I believe that there were two attackers. My theory is that Angel and her Mother (her Mother being the mastermind) planned this. I believe that they also helped pick up shell casings after Matt was murdered. My theory is that Angel left the sliding glass door unlocked. Hanna was at a sleepover on a school night so she would not be home. They went to bed like normal then Angels Mom brought the two people to the home and also took them away after Matt was killed. That is really why I think she was in the area not because of a bad feeling. In my opinion I also believe that Matt knew the attackers pretty well and that is why it was over kill. They have to 100% make sure he was dead so he couldn’t identify them. I believe the people were close to their family. I had heard about shell casings in the Moms car early on but didn’t know it was true. I just do not see why someone would let her run out for help. And her not to take her other child. She knew that she would be ok. I had also heard about the box fan and it just doesn’t seem possible to me that the fan didn’t get knocked over in all of the commotion.
I think that the podcast is awesome!! Thank you Freddie for taking your time to pursue this case and to Steve for setting up this forum. I knew Matt in Highschool and after he became saved and he would do anything to help anyone. He genuinely care for everyone he came in contact with. I hope one day he will receive the justice he truly deserves.

Can anyone from that area tell me how far away Angela’s mom lived from them ? Her story sounds pretty hokey about why she decided to show up that time of night for no reason that makes sense.
I’d also like to know more about her past. Single, married once or multiple times, any history that stands out, such as violence, alcohol or drug use, , money issues , or was she a supposed good churchgoing lady too ?
Someone needs to write a book about this story. Too much missing information.

My understanding is about 30 minutes away. I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm off by much.

Supposedly her spending time at night with them was not unusual for her. She certainly was there regularly, often watching the kids for example, although this night's circumstances may have been a bit different from the usual pattern.

I've heard multiple accounts about her actions that night from multiple sources... showing up and leaving again vs. only showing up after the murder. I've also heard various reasons why she went there in the first place, including bad dreams and premonitions. All of it is certainly very suspicious, but none of it is documented in any way that we can verify because it's an open case.


All I can tell you is what I've heard from multiple sources:

There are two sides to Brenda. Everyone thinks she's a character, many getting along well with her. She's all over Facebook heaping likes and positive comments on her friends. She's extremely protective and outspoken. She is unapologetically herself at all times and is very much the protective mama bear type.

On the other hand, and she'd probably be secretly proud of this comparison, she runs her family and close friends like a mafia don. I know that on more than one occasion, people have told Freddie that they need to 'get permission from Brenda' before they can talk to him. People who talk to Freddie have often gotten phone calls afterwards from her... and then they never talk to him again, at least on the record. This is the culture that has been created around this case that has caused at least one reporter to stop reporting on the investigation. Brenda seems to be the spider at the center of a very tightly controlled web.

To be very clear, though, this does NOT make her guilty. It can easily be argued it makes her suspicious... it can easily be argued that protecting those around her is far more important to her than finding Matt's killer... but she has been thoroughly investigated (as far as we know), went through at least one lie detector, and still she isn't considered a declared person of interest.

Her only relevant criminal history seems to be that she was arraigned on a misdemeanor charge of 'communicating threats' somewhere around 2000, and it appears to have been dismissed. I have no information on possible previous marriages.



Are you volunteering?  

She attended the school that was attached to RiverLife Fellowship Church, in Mooresville.
The school, I understand, no longer exists.

I don't know how expensive it was, but as active church members I am sure they could make arrangements.
