In recent interviews, neighbors of the accused killer commented how how calm and polite he was in the days leading up to and after the death of his stepfather and mother.
Parker was spotted driving a grey Chevrolet Trailblazer on the day that Chuck and Cathy Youngblood were discovered shot to death in their home. A neighbor commented to the police that she thought he was a lucky guy for his parents to give him a car.
