Judge Clifton Newman originally rejected the prosecutor’s bid to show the jury Alex Murdaugh’s apparent confession to a Sept. 2021 roadside shooting murder-suicide plot after objections from the disgraced lawyer’s defense on Tuesday. The judge reversed his ruling after Murdaugh’s lawyer opened the door for the confession to be entered into evidence while cross-examining an investigator.

50 thousand dollars on oxycotin a week is a joke.he is either getting ripped off buy paying $300 dollars a pill or he is lying 🤔
Think the defense wants to eat cake and have it to. Don’t bring in roadside but ask all bout Eddie on cross. Don’t bring in financial crimes yet ask nothing but character questions about Alex. Don’t think it is fair to know Alex is a great guy if you don’t know he steals from desperate people.
The Defense doesn't know if it's been shot, fuct, powder burnt, or snake bit.
Griffin is as corrupt as Alex..
If he was "medicated",WHY DEFENSE DEPOSED HIM? Should wait,then.THEIR….errr… "MISTAKE".
Ahahahah DEFENSE OPENED THE DOOR DANCING AROUND THE FIRE THINKING WOULDN´T GET BURNT!!!!!! Love this Judge. EVERY BOOK will reference this case. Some will be forever remembered as corrupt an sleazy,unlike this Judge,Prosecution,and some very competent witnesses. Good old boys club is exposed and their reign of terror is about to end.
He was definitely buying more than he needed just so he wouldn't run out. The mind of an addict 😕
So what?? How's it evidence of him killing his family?? The State has a VERY weak case and Alex has OUTSTANDING Counsel,so we'll see. I've watched every minute of this trial and haven't seen ANY solid evidence that he did it. Scary if you think about it. What if he DIDN'T do it? Prison for life??? If you have ANY interest in REAL justice, you'd wait for closing arguments.
He was competent enough to set up his own shooting.
Has Alc been deprived if candies?
God I detest this condescending Harpootlian. He is a sleezy customer who waffles his way through this case. Can’t see how he is known as a hot shot lawyer
Yes Buster has they snobby entitled look about him. Swaggering in to the courtroom with his hands in his hip pockets and laid out along the bench. Just like Dad he is. 👹
Is it possible to have a brain bleed , fractured skull etc etc and still be able to make a phone call?
Murdaugh looks like murder
How many pills was this guy doing spending 50k a week how was not in a constant coma
That judges chair looks like the most comfortable gaming chair. Can I buy that from you your honor? ðŸ‘
ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘wonderful judge
Great judge
They are blowing this on purpose. Appeals aplenty in the future if there is a guilty verdict.
The defense attorneys need to return to college.
This entire courtroom gives me my cousin vinny vibes.
I think the defense purposely introduced Eddie Smith into the record. Cousin Eddie is a double edged sword for the prosecution. He has lied and changed his story multiple times. His credibility will be seriously questioned. It also allows the defense to point to him as another or the sole suspect in the double murders.
Love this judge’s controlled, BUT obvious sarcasm directly aimed at the defense side😊
Why wouldn't they? Why withhold information that could help or change the outcome of a case.
I just rewatched the judges ruling letting this in from the end of court yesterday. The reactions of the defendant and his attorneys were VERY interesting! At this point I really think the defense is intentionally making “mistakes†to give him grounds for an a appeal. He has a more than competent team and they are making rookie mistakes!
This judge is the most knowledgeable judge I have ever heard. The best!!!!!
Personally, I think they should allow ALL the evidence during a trial. The jury needs to hear everything to come to a complete understanding of what went on.
I love this judge’s demeanor. Matter of fact, unbiased, and intelligent ðŸ™ðŸ¼
So he had a decades old, 50k a week drug habit & his wife was clueless! Doesn't sound very believable. She confided in her housekeeper about a decade old infidelity, but made no mention of a $$ draining drug habit? He's attempting to use addiction as a mitigator/excuse for his thievery/despicable behavior.
Huge mistake by the defense! Huge
I am starting to think Alex was funding a drug running cartel???
The judge laughing at them saying, "in the end, it's my courtroom and what was done yesterday stands"!
Defense could use the $50k a week drug habit as reason for someone who Alex owed to send a message. I think that its exaggerated on purpose to lead jury to believe that someone beside AM killed PM and MM. Either AM was being charged crazy amounts for those pills or his tolerance had grown so much that he needed around 7600 Milligrams of Oxy, etc. per day. That's roughly 250 oxycodone 30 mg per day. Nearly unheard of. So something here doesnt add up. Even with a serious tolerance, he'd be comatose and some of his family/friends would have seen that amount of drugs laying around.
Alex is never going to see the light of day. Why does he want to put his only living son and family through all of these details?
Obviously. Just as the case for the defense was leaning a bit, another door opens.
This judge is bossðŸ‘ðŸ½ðŸ‘ðŸ½ðŸ‘ðŸ½ðŸ™ŒðŸ¾
Okay so did anyone catch about 2:15 ish that the judge said 50k a week in a drug habit? I have plenty of Addicts close to me. Nothing even close to that. Not even cocaine.
No way he was spending 50k a week on drugs
