Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

A bomb threat halted testimony today in Alex Murdaugh's double murder trial. The courthouse was evacuated. Testimony resumed at 2:30 p.m. and ended early at 4:30 p.m.  Court resumes tomorrow morning.  During the two hours of afternoon testimony,  FBI electronics engineer Dwight Falkofske discussed his analysis of the computer data on Murdaugh's 2021 Chevrolet Suburban.  Every time Murdaugh put his car in park on the night of the murders, it was recorded.   The data appeared to suggest that Alex had only visited his mother for about 20 minutes that night. That is shorter than the amount of time Murdaugh told investigators.

Jurors in Alex Murdaugh's murder trial finally heard from the CFO of the law firm where Murdaugh was a partner.  Jeanne Seckinger told the jury that she had a tense meeting with the lawyer over settlement money that the law firm had collected, which was missing.  That total amount was more than $2.8 million. In less than  12 hours, Murdaugh's wife and son were fatally shot.    Also on the stand today, South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) Forensic scientist Megan Fletcher discussed the gunshot residue she found on Alex Murdaugh’s blue, tarp-like raincoat. The raincoat was found on the third of his mother's home about a week after the murders. Residue was found on the outside and inside of the jacket.  Testimony was also given on tests run on Murdaugh's shoes.  Joining Nancy Grace today:  Mark Tate - Trial Attorney- The Tate Law Group Leonard Romero -Forensic Firearms Examiner/ballistics Expert  Christina Marinakis - Psych.

Bombshells in the courtroom today as the judge in Alex Murdaugh’s double murder trial rules that the state may present evidence of the now-disbarred South Carolina attorney’s alleged financial crimes. The prosecution contends that the fact that these crimes were about to be revealed provided Murdaugh with a motive for murder.    Also heard in court today was testimony surrounding the "blue tarp" found on the second floor of  Alex Murdaugh's mother's home. That blue tarp, under testing, showed gun residue.  According to Shelly Smith, a caregiver for Murdaugh's mother, Alex came by one week after the murders carrying a balled-up blue tarp. It appeared to have something inside it.  Joining Nancy Grace today: Eric Bland - Attorney for Gloria Satterfield’s sons; Founder/Partner- Bland Richer, LLP Attorneys at Law; Twitter: @TheEricBland Chris McDonough - Director At the Cold Case Foundation, Former Homicide Detective, and Host of the YouTube channel, ‘The Interview Room' Dr. Michelle DuPre - Former Forensic Pathologist, Medical Examiner, and Detective: Lexington County Sheriff's Department; Author: "Homicide Investigation Field Guide" & "Investigating Child Abuse Field Guide;" Forensic Consultant Anne Emerson - Senior Investigative Reporter at WCIV ABC News 4 (Charleston, SC); Host of Award-Winning DAILY Podcast: "Unsolved South Carolina: The Murdaugh Murders, Money and Mystery;" Twitter: @AnneTEmerson   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
