Judge Rules to Allow Evidence of Alex Murdaugh’s Financial Crimes in Double Murder Trial – Live Coverage

On Monday, Judge Barnaby of the US District Court ruled to allow evidence of Alex Murdaugh’s alleged financial crimes in his double murder trial. The trial is being livestreamed from the courtroom, and is expected to last 3 weeks.

The prosecution has argued that Murdaugh’s financial crimes, including money laundering and fraud, are directly related to the double murder charges. The defense has argued that the evidence is unrelated and should not be admissible.

The trial has been filled with unexpected turns and dramatic moments. On Tuesday, a criminal defense attorney for Murdaugh argued that a witness’s testimony had dropped an “atomic bomb” on Murdaugh’s alibi.

The third week of the trial is underway, and Judge Barnaby has ruled that evidence of Murdaugh’s financial crimes is admissible. The trial is expected to reach its conclusion soon, and the outcome is highly anticipated.
