The juror says it was clear the South Carolina attorney was a “big liar.”
murder trial says the South Carolina attorney’s fate was sealed when the court was played a cellphone video placing him at the scene only minutes before the murder of his wife, Margaret, and son Paul. Murdaugh was found guilty on all four counts, including murder, Thursday after jurors deliberated for less than three hours.
But juror Craig Moyer told ABC News it actually took them just 45 minutes to persuade three waverers that Murdaugh was guilty and reach a unanimous verdict, with the cellphone video the clincher. Moyer, a carpenter, said Murdaugh had come off as a “big liar” when he took the stand. “He knew what he wanted to say. I mean, he is a lawyer,” he said. Murdaugh faces a minimum of 30 years in prison when he is sentenced on Friday morning.

Murdaugh's lawyer attacks state's alleged motive in South Carolina double murder trial(Reuters) -A lawyer for Richard 'Alex' Murdaugh on Thursday accused investigators of fabricating evidence and said their theory of why their client killed his wife and son made no sense, seeking to raise doubts with the jury in the high-profile murder trial. In his closing argument, Jim Griffin said the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED), the state's version of the FBI, failed to examine DNA samples from the deceased and other key evidence that could have exonerated Murdaugh, and instead focused on him due to his mounting drug and financial troubles. 'That made him an easy, easy, easy target for SLED,' Griffin said, arguing Murdaugh could have been ruled out as a suspect.
