He started by saying under oath: “Once I lied, I continued to lie. Oh, what a tangled web we weave…. I had to keep lying.”

How can the jury think he’s telling the truth now ?

I can’t understand how his defense is-- I lied about everything EXCEPT the murders. How can the jury believe that ?

Why did he pick up his son Paul's phone and then put it back on the dead body?

Huh. I always figured that the defendant testifying is a desperation move. From that perspective alone I think he's hurting his case since he is giving the prosecution an opening they wouldn't have otherwise had.

I don't know why the prosecutor didn't ask Alex murdaugh why he told his mother's caretaker that he had been there for a specified time because at the time he was there he wouldn't of known about the murders unless he was there and would prove he was trying to cover his tracks from day one and I also believe he shot Paul with the shotgun knowing it was Paul's favorite hunting gun kinda a sick twisted way of doing his son right and the reason the shots were coming from such a low angle is because he had a Lazer sight in the blackout which wouldn't require him to put the rifle to his shoulder he could hip shoot with a Lazer sight I also would of confronted him on the stand saying your wife seen her killer had to of looked them in the eye and you'll suffer the rest of your life knowing you made both of them suffer I also wouldn't doubt it if buster was involved they seem like a family with a lot of skeletons in there closet like the maid dying I believe the wife and Paul had something to do with her death and the reason Alex did it himself is because look what happens when he hired someone to shoot him if he did it himself there's no one to tell of what happened

Cross examination will expose him.

I'm a transplant to SC and about 2 hrs north of Charleston. No one I know here believes a word he or his spawns say. And most feel this family has gotten away with actual murder and more for far too long as privileged bullies.

I think he’s going to be found not guilty.

Reports say two female jurors were crying in sympathy. Murdaugh was so smart to take the stand in his own defense

I’m watching Friday and assume the cross will be about the murders?

AM just said “There were plenty of conversations where I looked people in the eye and lied to them. They were plenty of times when I took money and shouldn’t. There were plenty of times I stole money.”

I really wish I could add a photo but this tweet from @skinnysc is perfect.

Alex Murdaugh spending 7 figures on a defense team then tossing it out the window and testifying against their advice is textbook Alex Murdaugh financial decision-making.

Why does Alex say he doesnt trust the police? He's been working with them his entire career.

I am not viewing this. I would rather engage in dangerous coitus with a female afflicted with venereal disease without prophylaxis then view this spewing of horse pies fresh from the horse's anus

After watching this murder trial I have no respect for the jury for the courts or for anything now in life for they have convicted an innocent man for the rest of his life put yourself in his shoes he may have lied he may have lied through everything but he did not murder his son or his wife it is plain and clear and if the jury and the prosecutors couldn't see that I have no respect for them they are demons devils themselves and may God bless them because they will have to face the only judge God is the only judge not the guy behind that desk not the prosecutors and when it's time to face them I feel sorry for them because they are too blind to see what really happened Alec murder if anybody told the truth under oath if anybody lied it's the judge it's the prosecutors and everybody that was against Alec Murdock I feel sorry for him cuz their days coming this was a murder trial only a murder trial not a financial trial I feel sorry for those that convicted him may God bless him Alex Murdock be strong and things will work out the truth will reveal it will come out and I feel sorry for the ones that look so stupid the prosecutors the judge and everybody I'm very upset about this because they convicted innocent man and may God bless him and I hope it all back fires on the ones that said he was guilty for murdering his wife and son when I know that Alec Murdoch is innocent to me they were all jealous of him they were jealous of his father and his dad and everybody because they have the system going they knew what they were doing jealousy is a very bad thing and they were all jealous of the murdochs.
