Alex Murdaugh convicted after less than three hours of deliberations
About this episode
A jury found Alex Murdaugh guilty of killing his wife and son at their South Carolina estate in June 2021. The disgraced attorney was convicted on all four counts he was facing, including two counts of murder. Murdaugh’s surviving son, Buster, was seen wiping his tears as the guilty verdict was read. CNN National Correspondent Randi Kaye has been following this story from the start and was in the courtroom as Murdaugh was led away in handcuffs. She joins AC360 to discuss all the key testimony and evidence that was presented throughout the trial.
Plus, former federal prosecutor Jessica Roth tells Anderson Cooper she’s not surprised by the guilty verdict but is surprised that the jury deliberated for less than three hours.
