because there's no reason for him to do it, no reason whatsoever. now, you've heard a lot of testimony about these financial crimes, misdeeds, and he told you he did it, he told you he did it to support a very expensive drug habit, and none of that's an excuse, but he is an addict, and addiction is real, and addicts lie, addicts cheat, addicts steal to keep getting their drug. the evidence was permitted in this for you to hear solely to consider, did he murder his wife and son because he had this storm acoming, he was going to be exposed? is that why he murdered -- that's what they say. that's why you are allowed to consider it. judge newman and his jury
think it was tossed. that would have gotten him out of the circle i would hope but probably not because they've been so focused on him. now, as i mentioned, alec asked multiple times, i think the testimony was five times, agent owen, agent owen, you know, if you get this data it will show i wasn't there. and you know we were -- we didn't learn why they didn't get it off alec's phone until very recently. you'll remember on june 10th, he gave s.l.e.d. his phone, yeah, you can copy it. please copy it because it will show that i wasn't driving -- my phone was not with maggie's phone at any point in time going down the road and i did what i said i did. well, they did extract it, but what we've learned the extraction was a superficial extraction, not because alec
somebody he adored, correct? >> exactly, yes, sir. >> this was her testimony from the witness stand, and then in every trial there's -- you hope you find, you know, some very authentic witness, part of the fabric of america that comes in the courtroom, and we had in this case, and it's dale davis, and i want you to remember what dale testified about alec's relationship with his family. can we play davis's -- >> lovie dovey about alex and maggie, what did that mean? >> it means they loved each other. >> i mean, you described them as being lovey dovey, didn't you? >> yes. >> tell the jury what you meant by that. >> every time i was over there, you know, i've never seen that man even raise his voice at his
she left, the blue tarp was laying out on ms. libby's rocking chair. that was her testimony. and so s.l.e.d. gets that, gets a search warrant, goes to alameda, and then sees a blue rain jacket. then sees a blue rain jacket, and when they did, they take that blue rain jacket, and they show it and just about everything they can think of, and it's defendant's 87, doug, if you pull it up, but they show this blue rain jacket to as many family members as they can get in contact with, and the rain jacket is -- and no one recognizes it. no one sees it. no said alex's ever worn it, no
they get a desire to win, so intoxicated by the attention that is brought on bit case that it, you know, they start going to a win at all cost approach. and i'm going to go through some things that mr. waters stated to you that just aren't facts. and aren't supported by the facts and evidence that you heard. and before i do that, i want to give you a cautionary statement. we lawyers aren't witnesses. i didn't take an oath to stand up here and talk to you. i have ethical obligations about what i can say and limitations under the rules, but i'm not a witness, i'm here to talk to you about the evidence and the same applies to mr. waters. you decide what the evidence is. you decide. and --
that was it. that was it, ladies and gentlemen, until somebody watching this trial somewhere contacted somebody at general motors and said why don't you guys cooperate with the fbi and s.l.e.d. on this investigation. what are you talking about? so friday, you know, sometime in the last six weeks, l and behold here comes all the onstar data that you got to see. and that would be great. that would be great, but for the fact that when they seized maggie's phone, it had -- they put it in airplane mode, they knew how to put it in airplane mode. excuse me, i'm losing my voice. i need a drink of water, i apologize.
it was a new model. turns out the data's encrypted and so we haven't got it yet. well, what about general motors? i'll do what i have to do, whatever i can do, and we're looking into it. we're looking into it. what we learned during this trial is, sure, s.l.e.d. sent a subpoena via fax machine to somebody in detroit, i believe, and whoever got it in detroit, whether there was a number off, i have no idea what the reason was, but we do know the initial response we don't have anything. we don't have any onstar data that you're looking for. there's no indication that s.l.e.d. followed up with a phone call. there's no indication s.l.e.d. followed up with a letter. there's no indication s.l.e.d. did anything other than put it in a file. put the response in a file, and
alex murdaugh called 911, and officer deputy green and then follow the other deputies rolled up on the scene, and he is standing on his property. his wife and son lie dead in a pool of blood each. he's within yards of him, and he just put a shotgun down. he had just put a shotgun down. what would that look like 90 out of 100 cases when an officer rolls up, it would look like the person who had the shot gun and two dead bodies may have done it. probably have done it, certainly is someone who should be strongly considered and all the officers in this case told you that.
which is in evidence, on september 2nd, 3rd, 4th, this is the labor day weekend, he gets this drug dealer to shoot him in the head so he couldn't go on because it was all going to come crashing down and he had a big life insurance policy. so when alex is at financial collapse, he doesn't go kill somebody else. he tries to end it himself. this is a natural response, you don't want anybody to do it, but this -- people kill themselves from being exposed. they don't kill their wife they adore, son, apple of his eye, as
begrudgingly that he testified to the grand jury that there were four weapons found up on the property in the gun room, 12 gauges that were loaded or i'm not saying 12 gauges, i'm sorry, four shotguns that were loaded with buck shot and bird shot. there's four other ones, so that matches. well, guess what totally not true. that was totally not true, and he admitted on the stand it was not true. he admitted telling alec during the interview, he said i can do trickery. but he -- and then i said were you trying to trick the grand jury, no, i didn't say that. well, we walked through it and he did say it. and he didn't remember it, and you'll remember the testimony. people make mistakes, don't you? yeah, that was a mistake. it's okay to make mistakes,
