It’s true. He is in a band and I think they did an Eagles song in the video I viewed.
Alex under oath testified that the Hampton County sheriff had given him permission to install the blue lights.
Apparently the band name is Sole Purpose. P&C article states he was the lead guitarist up until about 2 years ago when the band's popularity grew and his workload increased.
Meet Creighton Waters, the Murdaugh prosecutor whose investigations toppled an SC dynasty
As chief prosecutor for South Carolina's state grand jury, Creighton Waters is known as a tireless investigator and legal genius with a zealous commitment to bringing justice to bad guys.
I don't think this is behind a paywall bc I was able to read the whole thing and don't have a P&C subscription.

Man that is wild! Thanks for sharing.
I am eternally thankful that the flexibility of my schedule (mostly in the spring and summer) allows me to play music on a regular basis.
The sheriff testified that wasn't true?
This morning yes. The Defense responded and basically implied that it was the Assistant Sheriff or whatever
Yes, the Sheriff said he never gave him permission.
I like the closed captioning on YouTube. "You may cross examine" comes out as "well this is a Malaysian"
The prosecution should be dinged significantly for letting a dude with that hairdo cross a witness.
That top left view on the Law & Crime feed is brutal.

The hog hunting piece seems underrated significant.
Alex testified that among other things, he and Paul road around and looked for hog activity in the early evening of the murders. I believe he said they had a .22 rifle (not the 300 blackout that the family used to hunt hogs) because hogs aren't hunted during the day. He said it's a nighttime thing.
The witness today said he hunts hogs frequently during the day and had even done so at Moselle with Paul using the 300 blackout.
Not only is that confirmation that Alex lied on the stand when he was supposed to be coming clean and telling the truth, it also creates a real scenario that Paul and Alex had the 300 blackout on the golf cart just an hour or two before Alex took that golf cart to the kennels.

I just checked. She has another year until she's eligible for parole.
If you are still hunting for hogs, it is typically done at dusk/dark. You can obviously hunt for them whenever you want, but they are mostly nocturnal in nature after they've been pressured any during the daytime.
That's our AG Alan Wilson. Likely making an appearance for political purposes.
Doesn't sound like they were necessarily hunting them, more riding and looking for activity. Think the state is suggesting that they would've taken the 300 just in case they came across one.
Right. Of all the things he's lied about, I think this is actually him being somewhat honest. They were just riding the farm looking for hog sign. Pretty normal. If I were doing that I would probably have a rifle with me though.
Alex Murdaugh was never at the Kennels, until there was evidence that came about putting him at the Kennels right at the time of the murder.
But now that he is at the Kennels, we are now supposed to believe he immediately left the kennels the exact moment after the video and upset social media people showed up at that very moment, without guns, and found Alex’s guns, and killed the very person they were looking to kill… Paul, who didn’t even live there at the time and had been spending all of his time at his Uncle’s home, whom he was working for.
How unfortunate is Alex to have lured Paul out there on this very day that the killers, who showed up, empty handed mind you, to kill a person that normally wasn’t there, and his dad, who was just confronted on that very day at work about missing money and was about to have his financial records revealed in a wrongful death law suit, was at the scene of the crime moments before.
Crazy unfortunate, but only a coincidence, that after giving him some time, the law firm fired him over stealing money and he acted extremely irrational and staged his own suicide, complete with a false sketch of the victim.
Dude, just can’t catch a break…

To what end? What would be the goal; get him to admit he hasn't done anything, so by extension he knows his brother was the killer? Cleary he isn't going to say that. It just opens the door that he will blame LE. Also then gives the defense a chance to tear into LE on redirect about how they have done a bad job.
It was covered at trial that there were many things sent to Paul via social media that were vile, I would imagine that is all true, the State probably has it all and knows it was bad. We all are well aware what keyboard warriors can and will say when they think anonymity protects them.
Numerous witnesses testified that one of the reasons Maggie went to Edisto was because of the glares and comments from the locals. She felt people had turned on them.
It isn't the families job to find the killers, and ultimately it is LE's job to do that. I have been involved enough with various investigations to know the first thing LE will tell you is, stay out of our way and let us do our job.
Too much risk and no reward.

He's been pretty effective so far, from what I've seen.
You can hunt dear at noon, but most people don't.
It isn't confirmation that he lied, no one knows if they were hunting are not hunting. Alex said they weren't and he wasn't wrong in his explanation. Most animals are hunted at dawn and dusk (feeding time) because that is when they are most active.
AMEN...is getting old and muddying up the thread
The girl lawyer for the Prosecution = Goth girl with the voice of Ozark's Ruth... But I might wood 
Yes! Wilson calling out the Murdaughs for cleaning up the crime scene
Fair enough, maybe not a lie.
Key point is, if I'm riding and looking, I'm probably carrying the right tool to get the job done if I do come across one.
Hogs are such a nuisance. Destroy everything. I'm sure Alex and Paul didn't want to let one walk if they crossed it.

Alright...Larry is getting into it!!
You must not be watching the same trial I'm watching.
The only thing this whole trial is missing is sex. Mistress for AM or a beau for MM. That seems to always be the case on every Dateline I've watched.
