One of the most high-profile true crime cases in recent history is playing out in a South Carolina courtroom.

Testimony is underway in the double murder trial of disbarred attorney Richard "Alex" Murdaugh, who is charged with killing his wife and son.

Murdaugh, part of a South Carolina legal dynasty, was charged with murder in connection to the 2021 shooting deaths of his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul. Murdaugh has pleaded not guilty.

After the shootings in June 2021, police launched investigations into two other deaths connected to Murdaugh and alleged criminal acts dating back more than a decade.

  1. I think the defense is kicking persecution butt. If this man is guilty, give us one indisputable piece of evidence!

  2. 1) Why did Alex Murdaugh go through so much trouble to hide the phone records at the time of the crime? (Deleted phone calls)

    2) There seems to be no evidence that there was anyone else who was in such close approximation to the scene of the crime and the time the crime would have been committed.
