Opening Statements! Alex Murdaugh Murder Trial Live | Lawyer Reacts

[@React2This]

Judge Newman attended a segregated high school that was called a “trade school.” It’s remarkable on so many levels to have seen him sitting in that chair, in that courthouse, in the rural South. So proud of him!

The commentary is fine but when it covers up what people want to hear for themselves it's an issue.

[@elizabethc5290]

It’s very interesting. Opening statement by state was very well organised and presented.

[@geelizz]

First time seeing a trail from jury selection. It feels like a whirl wind when they sat the jury, did opening statements and almost called a witness! Like woah! But I guess the jury members had days to set up the possibility of being on the jury. I hope to never have to be on a jury in a case like this. My face would not be able to hide what I am thinking and I just get the creepy feeling every time a certain person is on screen, let alone being in the room!

[@babyjanepad2596]

@aniadraws a deer cam would be out near deer stands for hunting, not close to other areas. At least that is what my Hunter friends say

[@origamikiddo2625]

👀👀 the property was "bought" from a friend who has connections to drug smuggling and an airstrip is on the property. I'm not making accusations but there may be reasons ppl don't want security cameras. Also Murdaugh's reputation probably means they have no fear of anything. And if there were cameras, you know there would have been some malfunction that night. Lastly, we only recently decided to get better outdoor lighting in our rural area (and security cameras at our church) only after our catalytic converter was stolen of our car that I left parked at my church. Ppl feel safe until there something happens to shatter that world view

He’s speaking to southern people. They don’t believe in science or facts. They can’t wrap their head around daddy killing his boy. His wife, maybe. I can see him getting off on his sons murder.. but not his wife

[@amylynnhunt55]

The defense attorney seems like a Feelings over facts guy. Or he doesn't have anything else. If his client is innocent, he would be a grieving husband and father, and I would think his atty would want to show that. Maybe I'm being feelings over facts, but it seems very odd. I appreciated the timeline from the Prosecutor. This will definitely be interesting.

[@leannageorge1122]

Love you! So thankful for being on the replay crew. Watching the subtitles and they aren’t very accurate. Sometimes our southern accents make them downright hilarious

[@wolfrebel4196]

For those people like me that need to see a visual timeline on the cell phone activity on the night of the murder Phone records document the following: 8:15: Maggie arrives at Moselle property 8:15 to 8:30: Dinner 8:30: Paul's phone moves toward dog kennels 8:44:55: Paul records video of dog (Paul, Maggie, and Alec's voice heard in background) 8:49:01: Paul's phone locks forever 8:49:31: Maggie's phone locks forever 8:49:35: Paul receives text from friend that goes unread and unanswered 9:02: Alec's phone activity picks up (phone had lack of activity from 8:O9 pm -before Maggie's arrival) 9:04: Alec calls Maggie's phone that goes unanswered and then Alec's phone calls Randolph's (goes unanswered) 9:06: Alec calls Maggie's phone again (goes unanswered), gets in Suburban vehicle and then texts Maggie he is going to visit Mom 9:06 to ~9:20: Alec drives to Mom's place in Almeda 9:44: Alec leaves his Mom's place 10:01: Alec returns to Moselle property 10:06: Alec calls 911 Defense will need to argue that from after the video was taken 8:44, that Alec was away from the kennels possibly at the main house that was 1/3 mile away from kennels (but still in visual sight) that someone else did it and he didn't hear the multiple gunshots or see Maggie dead outside as he drove away from the property at 9:04 - or - Maggie and Paul did not use their phones after 8:49, but were killed between 9:06 when Alex left to 10:01 when he returned to Moselle

[@heatherhelen5919]

Thanks!

[@barbielf9650]

Thank you

[@wolfrebel4196]

So either they were killed in the 19 minutes after the video was taken (8:44) but Alec didn't see or hear anything before he left at (9:06) -or- Both Maggie and Paul didn't use their phones for about 17 minutes (8:49 to 9:06) after the video but before Alec left Moselle and then were killed in Alec's 55 minute "alibi" I think this will be a staggering uphill battle for the defense

I grew up with a dad who was a big hunter. The defense using the word butchered over and over may end up back firing on him. A hunter shoots and kills and then butchers the kill. He emphasized all the guns and hunting, so yes, I can imagine him doing this. He could have easily gone into the mindset of a hunter who would butcher his kill.

Also "thinks his son was irresponsible". Wow that was cringe. Who talks about their murdered son like that?

[@jenerin905]

The "head split like a watermelon hit with a sledgehammer" imagery is over the top! I mean, if you really think your client is innocent, it feels so disrespectful. I get he's trying to say that no loving father could be that savage to their son, but the reference feels just gorey and thoughtless.

[@valkyrie_arts]

"Butchered, exploded brains, butchered, loved his family, butchered, more brains, brains, brains, innocence, butchered brains, BRAINS EVERYWHERE, BLOOD EVERYWHERE, butchered, INNOCENCE." I was over it pretty fast because the imagery became comical to me. If you continually described something to me in graphic detail, using words that are over the top, I'll just stare blankly at you like 😒💅 "Sure."

Reply Krewe (the New Orleans way we spell it as in “Mardi Gras Parade Krewe” Endymion/Bacchus/Muses) here… I saw a news report about this case shortly after it happened, and different investigative reporting agencies and true crime shows quickly followed suit.

Hey Emily! Look into the early actions by the original DA please. I think the way they handled this in the beginning has an effect on their ability to produce forensic evidence.

Oh, yeah. Prosecution banging that table just around 1:04:26 - I love that. He's deliberately timed those two hits on the table to be de-synchronised with his words. We'd normally slap a table for emphasis in a way that syncs with what we're saying. He's doing it to synchronise with the two people who are killed in the scene he's describing, and the de-synchronisation makes it feel really uncomfortable. It draws attention to itself, and the jury could even have thought about gunshots, I did. His voice doesn't get louder or sharper. Those table hits were when they died, he's purely the narrator. Love. The hits are in the middle of saying something, and are out of nowhere, which is his point. Perfect. Heartbreaking, and perfect.
