As the jury watched bodycam footage of the events after the murder of his wife and children, Alex Murdaugh sobbed once more in court on Thursday.

What Happened To Alex Murdaugh?

Throughout the proceedings, the 54-year-old was wiping away tears and frequently looked down in what appeared to be an effort to avoid video of his murdered wife Maggie and son Paul. At one point, a member of his defence team covered the screen.

On June 7, 2021, between 9 and 9:30 p.m., both had been shot multiple times outside of their home on the family estate close to the town of Island Ton. A devastated Murdaugh, 54, can be heard saying, “They are dead, aren’t they?” in the terrifying video.

Evidence Of Killing His Family Members

The video revealed that Murdaugh had a shotgun with him after the killings. Greene claims that he claimed to have taken it after dialling 911. The jurors saw the gun after it was brought into the court as evidence.

Murdaugh told Greene that he thought the killings had something to do with his son Paul’s boating accident, in which he had drunkenly driven his vessel into a bridge and killed passenger Mallory Beach. This was immediately after the murder.

The government accuses Murdaugh, a now-barred attorney, shot his family members to death with various weapons, then drove to his mother’s house where he texted and called his wife to provide an alibi. He is then reported to have returned home at 10 p.m. and made a call to 911.

Double Homicide Charges

However, Greene’s veracity was challenged by Murdaugh attorney Dick Hartpoolian, who interrogated him about why he neglected to record tyre impressions and footprints found at the scene.

Alex Murdaugh, 54, was unable to control his emotions throughout his double homicide trial on Thursday.

Greene responded that it wasn’t his responsibility when questioned why he didn’t photograph the tracks, and he repeated this response when asked why he didn’t alert state police to the evidence.

Thirty Years Of Imprisonment

Murdaugh asked, “Told you those weren’t your tyre tracks when he talked about the tyre tracks arriving and going, is that right?” Greene responded by confirming that what Harpootlian had said was true.

Murdaugh was struggling with drug addiction and severe financial difficulties at the time of the killings. The accusations against him have been met with a not guilty plea.

Murdaugh would receive a minimum of 30 years in prison if found guilty. The death penalty is not being sought by the prosecution. The three-week experiment, which started on Monday, is anticipated.
