Can't blame this on drugs. what is the new excuse?

I just watched it and I have a very different perspective on it. MM and PM's autopsy photos were being shown to the defense witness. AM was in his sorrow mode (and like always, unconvincing to me) getting all psyched up to make a show of it. JG wasn't looking at AM, he was looking at DH showing the prosecution what photos/exhibits he was entering into evidence, then back at the judge a couple times. AM's behavior was, IMO, engineered and when DH finished and sat down he ask AM something and AM made a face then hung his head and started to blubber behind the computer screen. Then he violently swiped at his face with a tissue all over. Sorry but I'm not buying what he was trying to sell, not one bit. AJMO and I respect you and your interpretation.

A bit confused on your take...was he authentic or not?

I'm behind as usual, but my s/o said that AM's acting performance, made him look like a guilty man.

He looked more guilty today than any other day. Could be the effect of hearing all of his actions for hours.

I think he realized he messed up his case with his testimony.

On another note, today, we were finally focused on the two victims, PM and MM. They were imperfect but they were victims of a horrific crime-- being killed by the person who had always promised to protect them. i can only imagine the betrayal that MM felt as she saw what he had done to PM, even though she could only process it for seconds. I hope the jury gives them justice.

The pen from today? The sheriff took it out of AM inside pocket and placed it on the table just 7:56:07 mark in video WATCH LIVE: Murdaugh Murders Trial — Closing Arguments — SC v. Alex Murdaugh - Day 25

Yes, but it wasn’t his first time. He tried to pocket another one last week…I think.

Oh boy, we might be in trouble if anyone like my husband is on the jury. He says, "No weapon, no direct evidence, statements from two "maids", and probably a lot of people who hated Paul and AM". My husband goes Not Guilty.

My nightmare is Alex managing to get his hands on something that he could use for a faux suicide attempt to derail the trial (or heaven forbid, a real one). Depending on how he is reading the jury, the state's presentation, and his state of mental health, he could be starting to feel really desperate right about now...and we've all seen his deluded thought patterns and actions when that has happened in the past.

As much as I think AM is guilty, I can't fault him here. For years, he was a white-collar lawyer. He's used to picking up papers, pens, etc. I think it's muscle memory more than anything.

MOO.

Watch Alex closely. What arrogance. You can see disdain leaching from him.
Grrrrr.....

See, i watched this trial (due to recovery from surgery) and I can see why he could say this. I think this could be a hung jury… I know I might have an unpopular opinion on the outcome.

 

[nodamselindistress]

I just want to know if he helped with Shelley's wedding? Or??

No i will not be one bit surprised at a hung jury

He did not.

Am I hallucinating, or is there a story out there about Rogan talking to Maggie's parents the day after the murders and telling them that he had heard Mr. Alex in the background of the phone call he had with Paul at the kennels? I swear I read it, but I can't find any article.

Asking, because I was idly wondering what were the circumstances around Rogan talking to police the day after the murders and telling them he had heard Alex on the phone. Did he approach the police, or did were they just interviewing him because he was there at Moselle the next day?

Grrrrr.....

Love the word "leaching" to describe him. You could have also used "leeching" as it is also apt.

It may seem like Waters is touching on small subject's and even boring at time's but I've been watching closely and taking note that certain key subject's strike a nerve in AM as the jaw tightens slightly are he jots something down or leans to the lawyer to probably say it didn't happen like that. The slight evil grin appears only to show that those demons nerves are being hit as well. Like a day of a thousand knifes, none of them a killing wound but enough to slowly bring out the true man behind the self assured mask. I see a man doing all he can do to just not go into a rage and holding it all inside. Let Waters continue with those small stabs and cuts , more effective then one thinks.

You nailed this!!!
Listening to Waters but watch acutely AM's facial twitches and that creepy jaw tightening makes my hair stand on end.

I can't stand that evil grin. It's only a flash every once in awhile before he gets it under control.

I hate him more now than I did before.....

Rogan was instrumental in the trial..guessing you missed it?

Well tell him what I told my husband- you need to take 2 weeks off work so I can SHOW you! Lol
Sadly it IS a full time job to follow all this.

This is the most gosh dang complicated murder case I have ever seen but it all falls into place for me. No one else could have done it except for AM. No reasonable doubt at all imo.

The Jury has a tough assignment here and I pray that they put it all together and aren’t swayed by Defense.

 

[nodamselindistress]

At this point I just want to know if SR MURDAUGH favored Ellick or Randy. He seems to have always been on hand when Ellick kid screwed up. But Randy had daughters so they probably did not count as much.
