It's sad and telling to me that for the "trial of the century" a majority of the lawyers on both sides are white men. Watching the way these lawyers are treating some witnesses, it's very clear that diversity on both sides would help.

This decision comes after Mark Tinsley, Beach family attorney, gave powerful testimony (without the jury) explaining how much financial pressure Alex was under at the time of the murders for the lawsuit related to the boat crash.

Alex Murdaugh Trial: Judge Newman ruled in favor of the prosecution to allow testimony/evidence related to the financial crimes into the murder case. THAT IS A BIG DEAL.

Tinsley is fearless on the stand. He testified that before the murders, he threatened to sue Maggie and Paul in Beaufort — where Alex Murdaugh would have no control over the jury. He also testified that the state grand jury was investigating Alex in 2021 for the boat crash.

Murdaugh Trial: Ballistics expert Paul Greer of SLED testified that the cartridges that were found at and around Maggie Murdaugh's body conclusively matched other 300 blackout cartridges found on the property and were fired by the same 300 blackout rifle. That is a big deal.

Months ago ahead of trial I said the same thing on #CUOMO : that prosecutors will argue every time #Murdaugh faces financial pressure he picks up a gun and resorts to fatality. Wilson's testimony may be admitted in limited fashion. #MurdaughTrial

Waters paints the Labor Day roadside shooting as part of a pattern with Murdaugh - trying to make himself a victim to cover up his crimes. “When the hounds are at the door … for Alex Murdaugh, violence happens.”

So let me get this straight. The Eagles did not fire Josh Sills. They put him on some list that still pays him even though he’s a rapist. And for those that are confused, the woman reported the rape 3 years ago, why tf is he just now being indicted?!

Every day at this time, an elementary school kid sprints by the house. Seconds later, a school bus drives by. I live at the top of a big hill. This kid races his bus daily up the hill and WINS! I love this kid.
