Fernandez and Sutton are arguing about the pellets. Dick objects to the comment Fernandez makes about "We'll get to that." Judge Newman sustains. #MurdaughTrial
Are we getting into the weeds here? Does the hole the pellets went through really matter in proving if Alex pulled the triggers?? #MurdaughTrial
Does the Jury care about the State being argumentative with a witness? #MurdaughTrial
Both Fernandez and Sutton seem flustered right now. I'm ready for this to end. #MurdaughTrial
We are viewing a photo of Alex with measuring tape next to him. #MurdaughTrial
Sutton's FARO machine is calibrated every year. #MurdaughTrial
Sutton does not know the height of the dog house at its highest point off the top of his head. #MurdaughTrial
They are discussing trajectories. Fernandez is showing the simulation of the 5'2" individual shooting from the hip. Sutton says that's what matches. #MurdaughTrial
Fernandez asks if a bullet can ricochet and offers that it's possible that the bullet ricocheted. Sutton says that's not likely based on the evidence. #MurdaughTrial
Fernandez keeps calling the figure a 12-year-old and Dick is trying to object, but Judge Newman keeps overruling the objection. #MurdaughTrial
They are discussing possible variables. I think we're all tuned out. #MurdaughTrial
We took a break and Fernandez is still asking Sutton about variables. #MurdaughTrial
We're starting Day 23 of the #MurdaughTrial with pretty much confirmation that #AlexMurdaugh will take the stand. Dick is asking the Judge again about him not being asked about the financial crimes.
Dick says it will take another week for #AlexMurdaugh to testify with all of their objections if the State is allowed to ask about the financial crimes. #MurdaughTrial
"Y'all know Alex Murdaugh? That's his son. Good luck." That quote has stuck out to me since the very first time I heard it on the podcast. #MurdaughMurders#MurdaughNetflix
Then once I saw one of the other docs and saw Paul smiling after the boat crash ... while everyone else was worried & looking for #MalloryBeach, it was even more clear to me just how powerful this family really was. #MurdaughMurders#MurdaughNetflix
Day 22 of the #MurdaughTrial & we're starting the day with talk of #AlexMurdaugh testifying. Defense is asking about stopping the State from being able to ask certain questions on Cross.
Judge denies request to limit scope of State's cross. #MurdaughTrial
First witness today is Mark Ball, Parker Law Group (FKA PMPED) attorney. #MurdaughTrial
Day 21 of the #MurdaughTrial. We're back after a long weekend. Judge says we have 2 issues: 1) Juror #441 is sick & will be replaced with Juror #530. This was an alternate Juror who took the place of #220. 2) Jim being on Twitter retweeting the article about the investigation.
Judge Newman said the first tweet he saw this morning was Jim's retweet!! Judge tells him not to post or repost anything. He says his command not to discuss the case doesn't apply to the lawyers, but it doesn't look good. #MurdaughTrial
Defense plans to wrap up their case by Friday. Jurors should expect to receive their Jury Charge sometime next week, depending on how long the State takes to Rebuttal. #MurdaughTrial
