Summary

The trial of Alex Murdaugh has begun and already a lot has been revealed about the night he allegedly killed his wife, Maggie, and son Paul. Co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell discuss how jury selection went, why Alex’s family was suddenly there, the 255 witnesses who might testify and what went down during opening statements — one was filled with Big Creighton Energy … the other was Dick Harpootlian. The trial is expected to last through Feb. 10 and Murdaugh Murdaughs Podcast will be there for all of it.
