in an attempt to turn the spotlight away from his financial crimes, broke down in court on Thursday as jurors watched graphic body-camera footage of the grisly June 2021 crime scene.
Murdaugh’s emotional reaction on Thursday was notable, given it was starkly different than the reaction he displayed to Green and the other officers when hearrived at the crime scene after 10 p.m., about two hours after prosecutors allege the murders occurred. Those crimes, prosecutors argue, were threatened to be exposed by a civil litigation in connection with a February 2019 boat crash. At the time of the murders, Paul was facing trial after allegedly drunk crashing a boat that resulted in the death of his friend, 19-year-old Mallory Beach, and injuring two others.
Later in the footage, Murdaugh is heard asking: “They aren’t dead, are they?” Green responded to Murdaugh that “that’s what it looks like.”
