The defense is poised to present their case next week.
Alex Murdaugh, right, speaks to attorney Jim Griffin on Feb. 10., prosecutors have called dozens of witnesses offering wide-ranging — and sometimes disjointed — testimony.of Murdaugh’s wife and son, and technicians who found gunshot residue, cracked open cellphones to get videos and tested dozens of ammunition casings.
But witnesses have been called in disorganized groups and tantalizing scraps of evidence have been introduced but not explained. The defense hopes to start its case in middle of next week and had planned a week of testimony but is rethinking that because of the trial’s length.
“This is piling on. This is more trying to prejudice the jury into believing somehow someone who steals a bunch of money in any way whatever would commit a murder,” Murdaugh lawyer Dick Harpootlian said.Prosecutors have called 47 witnesses in 12 days of testimony, but at times there has been little rhythm to the order.
