A murder trial got under way Monday for a 54-year-old suburban Detroit man who stands accused of bludgeoning his 87-year-old father and 85-year-old mother to death with a pair of hammers and a teapot before stuffing their pajama-clad bodies into a car.

Jeffrey Maurer is charged with first-degree murder, which carries a mandatory sentence of life without parole.

On the first day of the trial, the jury heard from Maurer’s sister Stephanie Rupp, who testified that she went to her parents’ Rochester Hills home, and her brother came to the door dressed only in underwear and wouldn’t let her in.
