GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — Channel 2 Action News obtained video that shows double murder suspect Brandon Williams acting wildly moments before police believe he killed his father's girlfriend and her 2-year-old son.
A person inside the Williams home recorded the video showing Williams wearing a Halloween mask and sitting directly in front of a TV, appearing to move imaginary objects around while talking .
"I already got them. I already sacrificed them," Williams said in the video. "Send all the rest of them to me now, from that location."

Victim Natalie Nation can be seen walking into the home on the video, carrying her young son. Gwinnett County Police believe just a short time later, Williams went upstairs in the Buford area home and choked Nation and her son to death.
Williams appeared in court Tuesday, insisting he was being held illegally .
"Do you understand those charges?" A judge asked him. "No ma'am, I do not." he replied.
After the judge read the two counts of murder and two counts of aggravated assault out loud to him, Williams replied that he believed his "so-called" victims were fine.
"I'm just trying to figure out how you murder somebody when they are at the same residence right now running around," he told the judge.

Police records show officers took Williams into custody several days prior to the murders when neighbors complained he was lurking around their vehicles and licking windows.
Williams was involuntarily committed for treatment, but doctors allowed him to leave a facility and go back to his home. Friends wonder why authorities didn't keep Williams locked up when authorities observed his erratic behavior.
"He should have been locked up or he should have had some sort of help," friend Brent Lenz said.
Another man, former cell mate to Williams, Aaron Ackerman is also confused.
"He never talked about hurting anyone, but he did say he had voices in his head, so that confused me. I mean what were they telling him to do?" Ackerman asked Channel 2's Tony Thomas.
"He claimed that he spoke to evil spirits and that there were two voices in his head and one would tell him good things and one would tell him bad things," Ackerman said. "He also told me it got worse because he wasn't taking his proper medication."
Ackerman says he never feared for his safety when he roomed with Williams while both men were in jail for parole violations.
Williams remains in jail and is due for another court appearance next week.
