Police report:  "Almandinger also said after the shooting he and D.J. went to another friend's house and asked for advice, according to the affidavit." 

His statements to the police sound to me like Almandinger is using the "legal advice" he got from "another friend" after the murder and shows clearly he knew he was guilty of murder. Apparently the friend's advice included hiding out in a shed for several days. Based on all of this, Almandinger, his legal adviser, and the others involved should be tried as adults, convicted, and locked away in prison for life!
