SC - Paul Murdaugh & mom Margaret Found Shot To Death - Alex Murdaugh Accused - Islandton #22

I think Bubba is seen in kennel after officer places weapon in patrol car and walks back to Alec. He is probably in distress over Paul nearby and in view.

Yes, I see Bubba. OMG. Heartbreaking.

He’s using the same language to describe things that he used in the first interview. Almost word for word.

I've noticed that state attorney is just calling evidence numbers and not even explaining what is actually being tested often. This is so confusing. I hope they break for lunch before cross begins.

Is it just me? Or is this very confusing?

Only 1 in 986 octillion individuals understands this testimony.

Who is the person somebody H-Tootalian mixed with Maggie and Alec's DNA, or something like that? Name unfamiliar.

This is the most confusing examination. This female attorney isn't asking questions well. IMO.

I think the judge made a big mistake by not ordering a mask mandate. Seems like he should be doing everything he can to avoid a mistrial.

I think the jury will need cocktails with lunch today!

And painfully boring. Make it end.

Nolan Tuten, Paul’s friend. The other Tuten brother, who’s now a Walterboro cop who previously worked as a runner for Alex at PMPED, testified Friday (he said Bubba was hard headed or stubborn).

This is the most bizarre case in recent memory. The motive advanced by the state IMO is hard to fathom. But the man on trial, Alex Murdaugh, is a cipher so it's hard to wrap your mind around what the heck happened. I had previously wondered if this was a homicide-suicide attempt and he couldn't go through with the suicide part. I can believe that motive based on the idea that he knew he was about to be exposed and couldn't contain it any longer so he was punching out and taking his family with him. But even then, why not JUST suicide? Why does he have to kill his wife and son? How often do we see fathers kill their grown sons? So far there has been no evidence introduced in trial that there were serious marital problems or possible divorce coming. The idea that he would kill his son to avoid civil liability on the boat incident is so out there! Instead of clarifying the trial seems to just bury the lede with the overfocus on the financial crimes. I don't know where to look!

I am hearing a lot of people say they are having a hard time understanding the motive in this case. I am worried about the jury understanding, and I hope the prosecution puts it all together for them. I agree that I would have trouble understanding the motive in this case too if I had not read the book "The Sociopath Next Door" by Martha Stout. I saw the author on Oprah around the time of the Laci Peterson murder. I could not understand Scott Peterson's motive. Why not just divorce her? Why murder her and her full-term baby? After reading the book, it made perfect sense. If you're not a sociopath, it is hard to imagine thinking like one. But when you understand how they think/view the world, which this book really goes through in laymen's terms, then the motive makes sense to me in this case too. A surprising statistic is that 1 in 25 people are sociopaths. I am not diagnosing AM as a sociopath, but it makes this motive ring true for me. Who else could steal money from so many people and lie to their faces? A person without empathy or remorse. A sociopath.

I think the State could have chosen a better team member to examine Ms. Zapata. This female attorney hasn’t helped in my opinion.

It’s not you.
DNA testimony is always tricky and technical, but this is the worst I’ve ever heard. The grandma cookie recipe description was moronic. The presentation and questions by the prosecution…oh my gosh! No one could follow this.

Mixed with a RedBull since the talk of DNA and blood source testing can glaze and haze the brain over.

 

[Amster]

DNA testing results aren’t entertaining? Who knew?
Seems this testimony is very important instead of boring MOO

I understood the Nolan Tutan's name earlier, I guess I didn't understand what she was saying the second time his name came up. Gues JG is going to have a field day with CB Rowe and Tutan
