Murdaugh is accused of killing his son, Paul, and wife, Maggie, in 2021.
Accused killer Alex Murdaugh broke down in tears in a South Carolina courtroom on Wednesday during the opening statements of his murder trial.
Harpootlian said that the night of the murders, Murdaugh, upon returning from his mothers’ house, “comes home to find his son laying in his own blood … shot to hell.”“He checks to see if there’s any life there … he tries to get a pulse out of Maggie” before calling 911, he said.Murdaugh’s surviving son, 26-year-old Buster, sat behind his father, who is accused of killing his mother and brother, on Wednesday.
Harpootlian said “it’s much more likely” there were two shooters — neither of which were Murdaugh — which would explain two separate guns used. “But the evidence is going to show, that these things every one of us carries around in our pockets, that he was there and he was there just minutes before with Maggie and Paul just before their cell phones go silent for ever and ever,” Waters said, holding up a cell phone.Just moments before they were killed, Paul took a video of a friend’s dog down at the kennel, in which Murdaugh and Maggie can both be heard, he said.Murdaugh faces up to 30 years in prison if he is convicted.
