This is day nineteen. We're almost a full month into the double homicide trial of Alex Murdaugh the odds of a hung jury increased exponentially on Wednesday when attorneys for the accused killer scored some major gains during a cross-examination of the lead investigator for the state.

Most significantly, Murdaugh attorney Jim Griffin delivered a masterful cross-examination of senior special agent David Owen of the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division (SLED), zeroing in on sworn statements Owen provided to grand jurors that certainly appear to have been based on inaccurate information.

Griffin also detailed disputed evidence – including the controversial blood spatter findings the state has abandoned in its attempts to build sufficient circumstantial evidence to warrant convictions against Murdaugh.

The unspooling could continue today (Thursday, February 16, 2023) as the state is expected to dive into the details of a bizarre September 4, 2021 roadside shooting incident involving Murdaugh that S.C. circuit court judge Clifton Newman originally ruled could not be brought into evidence.

Newman reversed his ruling late Wednesday and allowed the state to address the roadside shooting after Griffin opened the door to it (deliberately?) during his cross-examination of Owen.

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.
