A law partner of Alex Murdaugh testified Wednesday at his double murder trial that more than a dozen people who weren't first responders or law enforcement walked around the scene of the killings before South Carolina agents arrived to investigate.
Then, when state agents arrived, Murdaugh, his law partners and friends were all sent back to the family home, which authorities had not entered since arriving after Murdaugh called 911 to say his wife and son were shot.
Murdaugh, 54, is standing trial in the murders of his wife Maggie, 52, who was killed by four or five rifle shots; and their 22-year-old son Paul, who died from two shotgun blasts. Both were killed near kennels on the family's sprawling property in Colleton County on June 7, 2021. Murdaugh faces 30 years to life in prison if he is convicted.
"It's a crime scene. You don't want water dripping all over the place but more importantly, I thought it was pretty disrespectful. Paul was a good young man and quite frankly it just pissed me off," Ball testified.
