Odd way to begin the day. Dick Harpootlian thanking everyone for how the defense team has been treated.

Now defense attorney Jim Griffin with cross-exam of agent Croft.
#AlexMurdaugh
Griffin: None of the shotguns you brought yesterday fired the bullets that killed Paul, right?
Croft: I don't have the lab report in front of me.
Griffin: Have you ever found the murder weapons?
Waters: Objection.
Judge: Overruled
Croft: Not that I'm aware of.

"I'm gonna let you take it out because I'm a city boy." Jim Griffin says to the agent about removing a gun from the box.
#AlexMurdaugh
Jim Griffin points out markers 5, 6 & 7. -from what Croft just explained about the ejection path of the rifle, where would the shooter be standing?
Croft: It's likely the shooter would be to the upper side of those rounds.
#AlexMurdaugh
Griffin questioning Croft about, "It was so bad, I did him so bad."
Griffin: Are you 100% confident in I vs. they?
Croft: I'm 100% confident in what I heard and interpreted him saying
Griffin: What did you do in response to that?
Croft: I made a mental note of it.
#AlexMurdaugh
Griffin: If the only guy you are suspecting said, "I did him so bad", isn't that a significant statement if he actually said that?
Croft: Definitely something we would follow up with.
Griffin: But you never followed up with it, did you?
Croft: We didn't make it to that point
Griffin plays the "I/They" audio. He plays it in real-time and slowed down at 1/3 speed.
Agt. Croft still says he doesn't hear "they".
Griffin: You agree the jury gets to decide.
