Description

After hosting another spirited live-chat of Alex Murdaugh’s latest pretrial hearing in the double-murder case, Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Eric Bland break down the most interesting — and most irritating — moments of Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin’s efforts to shape the narrative surrounding the state’s evidence against Alex. In the meantime, an unshackled Alex had a good old time for himself in the courtroom, laughing and flirting with those around him.
