Impact of influence the Murdoch family murders. This is the unfolding story of a powerful South Carolina family

from the mysterious deaths they are linked to and our quest to bring you the truth.

Hello friend, always grateful that you spend time with us as in Matt Harris and Seaton Tucker.

And you can find us at Murdoch podcast on Facebook, Murdochpodcast.com or reach out Matt Harris podcast at

gmail.com. The trial has begun if Eric Murdoch and he has of course been charged with murdering his

son Paul and his wife Maggie and Seaton is in Walter Burrow South Carolina, the low country where the trial is going on.

Hello, Seaton. Hello. Thanks for being down there this week. We in our last episode thought that we were not going to have a

seat inside the courtroom, at least a permanent assigned seat as opposed to waiting for the

drawing and we have one now. Yeah, it was great. The first day we did not get one, but the second day the

clerk report who is amazing reached out and said that we got a seat. So we're very thankful.

And so Monday we weren't in you weren't in mainly because you're there, but we were able to listen to it.

It was only audio because the cameras were not allowed because Judge Newman did not want to have them show the

faces of the jurors. Now they were allowed when there was motions and things like that. So they brought in this hundreds of

jurors were potentially going to see this trial. And by the time you went in on Tuesday, it was narrowed down a

little bit, but explain what your I guess what three pods versus three pods of or four pods or something of

of of jurors. So they split the jurors up into kind of groups because there were so many called and they kind of started

to talk about what's basically the statutory questions. There were whole bunch, you know, if you were caring for a young

child, you were exempt or an elderly person and also just basic questions. If you are a citizen and knew how to

read and write the English language, that sort of thing. So there were pretty much just standard questions.

And then they went on to the question of, do you know anything about this case? And it would be amazing in somebody in that

area did not know anything about this worldwide international murder trial. So I imagine when Judge Newman mentioned that

there, I guess he said, would say, would stand if you've heard anything about it. And they would stand.
