Convicted murderer Richard Seymour is up for parole again on Thursday.
Seymour hit his teenage son over the head with a gas tank and a hammer and beat him with his fists in his family's Billerica, Massachusetts, home on Jan. 20, 1986. He also attacked his wife and kidnapped his daughter, Paula.
He pleaded guilty to second degree murder, three counts of kidnapping and three counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
At a parole hearing in 2016, Seymour apologized to his daughter and wife.
