The Clerk really should have used better judgment than to have her Parker’s Kitchen cup on display on her desk like that. Truly in poor taste given the circumstances.

“You fool!”
– B. A. Baracus, The A-Team (CBS)

Murdaugh has lied to SLED before. Lies have been a part of Murdaugh’s life from his stealing and embezzling money from the firm and clients. What’s going to stop him from lying again? He’s not going to get the death penalty. If he is sentenced to the max for his “white collar” crimes, his prison term will be greater than his expected remaining lifespan.

The State is going to have a field day with him. He admits under oath he lied about being at the kennel, and now admits its him in Paul’s video at 8:45pm. Says he freed the chicken from the dog, put it’s carcass on the kennel roof, then immediately went back to the house, did or didn’t doze off for a minute, then decided to go see his mom….yet somehow didn’t hear all of the gunshots, then tried calling and texting Maggie that he was leaving WHEN HE KNEW EXACTLY WHERE HE LEFT THEM 10 MINUTES AGO and could have pulled into the kennel area and told them himself, and just left.

Stephen Smith and Gloria Satterfield had almost identical head injuries. Both were CLEARLY murdered, although there is almost zero chance of justice prevailing in either case.

If Murdaugh flashed anger under “friendly fire”, er, friendly questioning from one of his defense attorneys, just imagine what the fireworks will be when Creighton Waters gets to question Murdaugh.

What a load of self serving nonsense! Wonder who “Timmy” was, why his former girlfriend says he beat her, why he needed bailing out?

Could it be that Murdaugh is angling for a mistrial?

Why the inexplicable and strange pauses, confusion and stumbling around for answers? For an alleged highly credited attorney, despite the traumatic and mortifying events of June 7, why is Alex appearing so absent?

So if Alex was in a paranoid condition, how does he know that he didn’t kill them and doesn’t remember??

What i’m gathering is that Alekckck is the true victim here. #recoveringaddict

Well there’s some motive for you – protect Moselle – make it harder for the suing parties to access that asset.

I hope the State asks how much oxy he had taken that night and when and then presents what oxy does to a person’s judgement and actions

If “Elick” tries to use “ineffective counsel” as a reason for his appeal, he’s going to have to name himself.

Waters is killing him. Waters finally called him on his pat “I was wrong” response to every question. His “lawyerly answers” are making him look guilty rather than sympathetic. What he “can’t remember” is astounding when you consider we’re talking millions of dollars.

He’ll ask him where the clothes are, right?

Creighton is so focused on intimidating Murdaugh, he didn’t stop to think simply how to rephrase his question. I think he might have had traction if he asked Alex if he used terms like “settlement is in process” or “defendants are trying to determine how much they are willing to settle for.” Or “there are some things that will take more time to prove”. Or even “we lost”. That might refresh his recollection. He professes to remember only didn’t tighten the noose.

He needs chime in , mr walters I stole the money as you say and for it I probably mostly likely will go to jail for rest of my life but I didn’t not kill Maggie and Paul , then break down . At this point defense council move for short recess so mr murdaugh can compose himself . A deep heart felt cry . Just remember you can kick a biting dog to point people feel sorry for it . Ask about lies he told sled .
