TULSA, Okla. — A jury in Oklahoma found the younger of two brothers guilty late Wednesday night of fatally stabbing their parents and three siblings. Bever was 16 when authorities said he and brother Robert Bever, 21, killed their parents, two younger brothers and 5-year-old sister. Robert Bever, who was 18 at the time of the killings, pleaded guilty in 2016 and was sentenced to life in prison without parole. Michael Bever did not testify in his own defence, and his attorneys relied heavily on the testimony of Robert Bever, who told his brother’s jury that he wanted to take responsibility for all of his family members’ deaths. In a videotaped interview that jurors saw last week, Michael Bever told two detectives that he stabbed his 10-year-old brother and his mother, April Bever.
