Maggie's family have been noticeably absent from the trial, except for when her sister testified. They did not support Alex so I would be surprised if any of that side of the family shows up for an impact statement, unless it's on Buster's behalf.They sure didn’t give much time to prepare victim impact statements, basically about 12 hours. Plus, some would have to travel some distance to show up at Colleton County courthouse. Not that I think it will affect the sentence he’ll receive, but maybe Marian and her girls would want to speak. Then again, maybe not. The statements may end up being more on behalf of mercy for the convicted murderer.
That said, I’m fine with such quick sentencing. Get ‘er done!

I’ve seen all kinds of things brought into appeals but very rarely, and only under extreme circumstances with new evidence, have I ever seen a murder conviction overturned by an appeals panel of other judges.I think it’s going to be used. They will most likely say codes and procedures were not adhered to in this instance. I don’t know what they are but I know DH will find a way to tie them in. He is also claiming that Newman was bias and generous with Pros, and that the other crimes were allowed in.
No, it’s valid! Not the smartest peeps I’ve ever seen. I muted waiting for the presser last night. They were saying utterly stupid things, like SODDI!!I'll tell you what, I'm not going to miss any of these Law & Crime hosts. Is that mean?
two different shotgun rounds were used against PM turkey load, smaller pellets and buckshot being bigger pellet size. Several shells were found at the base of the open door in the feed room. The defense was blowing smoke around about the shells used, pellets found in the walls as well as PM body. Those type of shells were found around the site as well but the several shells found in the feed room were key though different.Anyone know why shotgun shells were the issue with the brief holdouts? I don't understand that part of the evidence (wasn't paying attention to it). Murdaugh juror says cellphone video sealed disgraced attorney's fate: ABC News exclusive
I would imagine that is a hard road to travel for her. As she wants to be there for her sister, she still wants to have a relationship with her sister’s son.Maggie's family have been noticeably absent from the trial, except for when her sister testified. They did not support Alex so I would be surprised if any of that side of the family shows up for an impact statement, unless it's on Buster's behalf.
Maggie's sister is rumored to be very closed to Buster.
MOO
Rage. That's what got him in this mess to begin with. mooI can feel his rage at this humiliation from across the atlantic
Or the bomb threat, or Alex on the StandWildest moment in the trial for me so far, in a trial with many wild moments, was the "let's stage the Moselle property for the jurors with Maggie's bike, a random flowerpot with Buster's name, an empty shirt in the window and a stuffed chicken in the dog pens" moment.![]()
They all took a lot of abuse from defense during the trial. Can you imagine their dilemma the first days -- how they had to tow the line -- the son of 100 years of solicitors -- with JM following them around. Heck the female SLED agaent felt she had to remove her side arm and badge to go into the house.i Feel the same way seeing the deputies who were there on the Night of June 7th waiting for him to arrive …. A reminder of “we got you!”![]()
same here. mute. ive stopped listening to commentaries years ago.Couldn’t agree more! Great camera coverage with 3 split screens but I used my MUTE button between actual courtroom coverage![]()
Agreed the bomb threat and after that we were expecting anything and everything crazy.Or the bomb threat, or Alex on the Stand
