Murdaugh Murder Trial Week 4 Day 2
#murdaugh #murdaughmurders #alexmurdaugh #murdermystery #truecrimelivestream
This is day seventeen … and it is scheduled to commence with Murdaugh’s lead attorney, Dick Harpootlian, cross-examining forensic pathologist Ellen Riemer of the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). During direct examination by lead prosecutor Creighton Waters yesterday, Riemer offered chilling testimony – graphically detailing the fatal wounds sustained by the two victims in this case.
This week’s proceedings got off to an inauspicious start when S.C. circuit court judge Clifton Newman announced two jurors had been excused from the trial after testing positive for Covid-19. These jurors were replaced with alternates, but the possibility (likelihood?) of a Covid outbreak has many concerned these proceedings could end in a mistrial.

Meanwhile, trial watchers were stunned by reports from two journalists on Monday afternoon indicating that Murdaugh was planning to take the stand in this trial. These reports cited sources “close to the defense,” however our news outlet has been unable to confirm this information with our own defense sources. In fact, one indicated the reports were “bullsh*t” and that Murdaugh’s potential testimony would be a “game-time decision.” More here: https://www.fitsnews.com/2023/02/13/reports-alex-murdaugh-to-take-the-stand-in-his-own-defense/
Murdaugh stands accused of killing his wife, 52-year-old Maggie Murdaugh, and youngest son, 22-year-old Paul Murdaugh, on his family’s hunting property in Colleton County, S.C. on June 7, 2021. He pleaded not guilty to those charges and is currently standing trial in Walterboro – a town located in the low country region of the Palmetto State, which Murdaugh’s family ran like a fiefdom for more than a century.
