The state's 53rd witness is Roger Dale Davis, who took care of the Murdaughs' dog kennels at Moselle. He would clean the kennels twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.
Davis testified he fed the dogs and chickens and cleaned their pens out.
Davis testifies Maggie loved and cared for the dogs. Paul was wild and crazy but loved being at Moselle. Alex was very particular about how Davis should care for the dogs, but he was difficult to contact by phone. Always busy, in court or otherwise.
“Bubba was very rambunctious. They would lock him up in the kennels at night.” Bubba cannot catch a break.
Prosecutors asks Davis how he typically put the water hose away after washing out the dog kennels. Davis says he would stretch the hose straight out, cut the water off and then roll up the hose slowly.
He did it that way every time. He was particular about it so he didn’t damage the hose. Prosecutor shows Davis a photo of the crime scene. The hose is in the background. Dale testifies it's not stored how he stored it. "Somebody used that hose after I did because it's twisted.”
Davis testifies he fed the dogs and cleaned their kennels early on the morning of 6/7/21 and then again around 4 p.m. that day. Nothing was out of place or unusual, he said.
Prosecutors working to establish that someone used the hose by the kennels after Davis, obviously to clean themselves off after the slayings.
Davis is testifying about which dog stayed in each kennel. Dog names include Grady, Maggie, Bubba, Cash (Rogan's dog), Tappy Toes and Armadillo
Davis testifies that when he hosed down the kennels, water would pool in certain areas, including right under the hose. Water never pooled by the feed room, or by the first two kennels where Bubba and Grady stayed, Davis said.
In the afternoon, the sun would beat down. “It would dry it up quick," Davis said. He is shown a picture of the crime scene. He says the water pooling isn’t normal. “There is too much water right there around the second and third pen.”
Davis testifies that the dogs didn’t necessarily have assigned kennels, but Maggie was particular about which dogs went into each. She wanted Grady in the kennel right beside the feed room and would put him there every time.
Other Murdaugh family members would just put the dogs in whatever kennel was convenient, Davis testifies. Prosecutor shows Davis a photo of the dog kennels on the night of the slayings. The dogs were not staying how Maggie would have ordered them, he has indicated.
Prosecution wraps up its questioning. That was very interesting testimony. Defense attorney Jim Griffin rises to cross-examine Davis.
Davis testified that he hadn’t ever seen a gun in the Moselle dog kennel feed room. But on cross-examination, he says the Murdaughs left guns everywhere on Moselle. On ATVs, in unlocked trucks with the keys left in them. In a shed nearby.
Griffin pokes a hole in the state’s point here. He shows Davis a video of Paul’s 8:44 p.m. dog kennel video, pausing it at one point when it shows the hose Davis had meticulously wrapped earlier was already lying on the ground by then.
Griffin reminds Davis that the video was taken at 8:44 p.m., after sundown. So the water wouldn't have dried up naturally.
Davis describes Alex and Maggie as being “lovey dovey.” “I’ve never seen that man even raise his voice at his wife.” Alex loved to hunt and fish with Paul. They drank beer together, Davis says.
Griffin asks Davis about a time a Murdaugh dog got injured and had to be put down as a “mercy.” Davis says Alex couldn’t bring himself to shoot the dog and asked Davis to do it. So Davis did.
Griffin: “Bubba’s been getting a bad name. Bubba’s a little stubborn dog?" G: Would he listen to you? D: “Somewhat.” G: “Would he listen to Alex?” D: “He did.
Davis testifies Maggie would take a golf cart or a bike down to the dog kennels, and sometimes she would walk. They were pet dogs but stayed at the kennels most of the time. They didn’t let the dogs in the house because Buster had eczema, Griffin says.
Davis says a rooster would get on top of the dog kennels and “aggravate the dogs to death.” Establishing a motive for Bubba’s actions that evening.
Either Grady or Bubba eventually assassinated the rooster, Davis testifies. My word choice, not his.
Davis testifies after he left Moselle around 4:30 p.m. on 6/7/21, he took a shower and parked in a recliner for the rest of the evening. He was home with his wife. Prosecutor asks Davis if he saw any guns around the kennels on the afternoon of the slayings. Davis says he didn’t.
The state’s 54th witness is state grand jury forensic accountant Carson Burney. We previously heard from him when he testified in with the jury excused.

If AM carried a pistol in his car why'd he have to go up to the house to grab a weapon? I don't recall anyone testifying LE found a firearm in AM's vehicle.

Why is the state bouncing back to the financials? They go from pathologist to dog feeder to forensic accountant. Why is their presentation so disjointed?
