00:00:10.640 --> 00:00:14.400
Hey everyone, and welcome back to Exposed Scandalous Files of

2
00:00:14.439 --> 00:00:17.920
the Elite. I'm your host, Jim Chapman, and we are

3
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:24.120
back with another mrdall series, this twenty second episode, and

4
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:27.800
this is going to be the lengthiest podcast today. I'm

5
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:32.479
wrapping up Alex Mardaugh's testimony with this episode. So while

6
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:37.119
this episode is lengthy at some three plus hours, it's

7
00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:41.520
absolutely partnent that you hear it. And as has been

8
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:45.039
the practice with all the episodes I've done in this

9
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.359
mart All series, at certain points during the testimony I'll

10
00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:53.119
break in and discuss those points throughout the podcast. Now

11
00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:55.840
let's get into it. And the last time that we

12
00:00:56.039 --> 00:00:59.880
left you, Alec was on that stand in Creighton Water

13
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:05.079
was diving in on the biggest lie of all, the

14
00:01:05.159 --> 00:01:10.239
fact that Alex lied to the police regarding being at

15
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:13.959
those kennels. He played the video in which Elick was

16
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:18.280
in the background of a snapchat his son Paul was

17
00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:22.640
taking and Alex's voice very distinct fussing at one of

18
00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:26.359
the dogs over having a chicken in his mouth. So

19
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.280
we're gonna pick up at that point in the testimony,

20
00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:33.400
and in this first clip you're gonna hear prosecutor Waters

21
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.439
further questioning the fact that he lied about being at

22
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:41.879
those kennels, which remember, this is probably the biggest key

23
00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:45.480
in the case because it places him at that murder

24
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:49.439
scene just prior to his son and wife being killed.

25
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:54.400
Waters also hammers down on his claim of movement just

26
00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:59.359
after discovering Paul and Maggie tragically murdered. And it is

27
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:04.120
a bat of we. And here's that first club.

28
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:07.239
When you picked up that chicken, was there any blood

29
00:02:07.239 --> 00:02:07.400
on it?

30
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:11.439
I don't believe, sir.

31
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:14.879
Did you wash your hands or all at that.

32
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:18.599
Point in time. I don't believe that I did.

33
00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:21.199
And when you say you were there, you said Maggie

34
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:23.159
was near nearby you Is that correct?

35
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:23.680
Right?

36
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:25.800
Was she messing with the hose at all.

37
00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:29.960
At that time? No, she was not.

38
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:32.840
Did she mess it with it the entire time that

39
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:36.039
you were there, according to your new facts today.

40
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:41.199
While I was there, she did not touched she. She

41
00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:49.400
was not fooling with a hose at all.

42
00:02:49.280 --> 00:03:08.479
All right, I'm gonna I'm.

43
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:11.280
Gonna put up on the screen stakes five nineteen, which

44
00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:14.680
is the condensed timeline. If I could have a computer input, please,

45
00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:20.599
it's the condensed timeline. Mister Griffin.

46
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:26.800
Gemini.

47
00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:42.120
All right, you see that out there? H mister Murdat, Yes, alright,

48
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.479
I'm on page five. You see that uh sell challenge.

49
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:50.479
There's something on my screen? Yeah, I do see that.

50
00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:57.199
Would you agree with me that it reflects no cell

51
00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:00.759
tower activity on your phone from six fifty tonight?

52
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:04.080
Ow fo, I do agree with that.

53
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:08.319
Let me ask you this one from Murdock. Did you

54
00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:11.680
take your phone with you down to the kennels? According

55
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:14.840
to the new facts that you're testified to you yestrain today.

56
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:17.720
I must not have. You must not have if this

57
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:18.399
is accurate?

58
00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:20.360
No, SIRH is that typical for you?

59
00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:21.240
Sure?

60
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:25.680
It is absolutely tell if and when I'm going now,

61
00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:28.480
it wouldn't be. It would be unusual if I was

62
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:31.399
going out for any extended period of time, or if

63
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:32.240
I was going.

64
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:35.079
Even on the property.

65
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:37.439
If I was going somewhere for an extended period of time,

66
00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:40.720
I would usually have my phone. But for me to

67
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:43.879
go knowing that I'm going to the kennel and coming

68
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:47.839
right back, that's not unusual at all. I mean, you've

69
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:50.319
heard the testimony about the service out there. The service

70
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:54.480
is terrible. You have to be in a particular spot

71
00:04:55.839 --> 00:04:57.000
and you have to find the spot.

72
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.600
So the answer is, you don't know whether you took

73
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:01.160
it down there.

74
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:04.240
I believe that I probably did it based on this data.

75
00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:07.839
Based on this, but unlike the photographic memory about other things,

76
00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:09.480
you don't remember whether or not you had your phone

77
00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:09.720
on you.

78
00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:13.079
Mister Waters, I've never claimed to have a photographic memory,

79
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:16.439
but I do not specifically remember if I had my

80
00:05:16.519 --> 00:05:19.040
phone that night. I do not dispute it based on

81
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:23.040
these on this data, and that's not unusual for me.

82
00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:25.959
So it's like you don't remember, according to your new story,

83
00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:28.600
the last conversation you have with Maggie.

84
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:35.639
No, I remember, I remember having my last conversation with Maggie.

85
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:42.680
Looking at this screen, you have the map up there

86
00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:45.000
were on page six, and it shows you arriving back.

87
00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:49.240
It's Mozille at six forty two. You don't just few

88
00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:49.759
that now.

89
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:55.120
As I cry, No, that's that's what this data appears

90
00:05:55.160 --> 00:05:55.560
to show.

91
00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:04.680
Look at the data. Moving on to page seven, you

92
00:06:04.759 --> 00:06:08.920
have Paul arriving about seven oh four. Is that correct?

93
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:11.519
You don't have any reason to dispute that.

94
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:16.279
Well, that's what it says.

95
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:21.160
He arrives at forty one forty seven Mozelle Road. Which

96
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:25.560
is the address of the shop. The house is forty

97
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:28.920
one fifty seven. I believe that Paul actually got there

98
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:34.560
a little bit before that, but I think that's approximately accurate.

99
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:37.480
I think Paul got there a little bit closer to

100
00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:38.199
seven o'clock.

101
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:44.879
You would agree, though, that's the earliest data point that

102
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:46.439
reflects his presence in Mozilla.

103
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:48.920
If that's what the records show.

104
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:50.639
You don't dispute that.

105
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:53.920
I don't dispute that that's if that's the earliest data point.

106
00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:57.480
But again, I believe he got there a little bit earlier,

107
00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:00.360
and I tried to look at these records to see

108
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:03.439
if I could just if that could be refuted, and.

109
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:07.720
I believe he got there a little closer to seven

110
00:07:07.839 --> 00:07:09.040
or a little bit before seven.

111
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:11.079
Now that's a good point. You looked at these records

112
00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:13.800
a lot before you had your testimony Astrain today, didn't you,

113
00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:14.439
Muster Murdo.

114
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:19.720
I've looked at these records other than the on Star

115
00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:23.600
records that just came when they were provided to me.

116
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:26.920
Sure, I've looked at them.

117
00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:31.839
Right here, we have some steps on your phone, twenty

118
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:35.839
nine steps, and then down at the bottom we have

119
00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:40.120
eighty nine steps. Is that consistent when you and Paul

120
00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:41.480
were together on the property.

121
00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:46.480
I mean sure, we would go to different locations on

122
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:49.480
the property. Sometimes we would get out, sometimes we wouldn't.

123
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:50.439
We get out and walk around.

124
00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:51.279
We look at.

125
00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:54.160
Stuff, We do things. For example, you saw me messing

126
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:56.839
with the tree. There'd be other ones. We may get

127
00:07:56.839 --> 00:07:58.600
out and look at a feeder mey be other ones

128
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:00.800
we get out and look at how signs.

129
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:05.079
Where hogs are rooty. So it would be perfectly consistent

130
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:22.399
with what Paupaul and I were doing that day.

131
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:18.399
And eight oh five to.

132
00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:20.879
Eight o nine.

133
00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:26.439
Would you agree that that's the last steps recorded on

134
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:30.040
your phone before nine oh two when you become a

135
00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:30.839
very busy beat.

136
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:37.240
If that's what these records show, I see I took steps.

137
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:40.039
It's record show I took steps between eight oh five

138
00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:40.799
and eight oh nine.

139
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:44.000
Right, So would you concede then that you're at the

140
00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:47.919
house around eight oh nine.

141
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:52.200
I would have thought so, yes, mkay.

142
00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:55.720
And you said Paul was already back at that point, No,

143
00:08:56.600 --> 00:08:59.279
I said just the opposite. When did he get there?

144
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:01.840
Alright?

145
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:05.559
You talking about when I left the shop and went

146
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:09.080
to the house, when Maggie was there. Ye, No, As

147
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:12.919
I said earlier, Paul and I were at the shop. Mmm,

148
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:16.440
Maggie got home. I left Paul at the shop and

149
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:19.840
I went to the house. And I think you were

150
00:09:19.879 --> 00:09:22.279
saying that I said, I met Paul at the house,

151
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:23.360
and I said, correct.

152
00:09:23.120 --> 00:09:24.600
Paul was still down at the shop when you were

153
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:25.399
at the house. Correct.

154
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:27.960
When I first went to the house, Paul was still

155
00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:28.759
at the shop, I.

156
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:31.279
Believe, alright. And was Maggie there when you arrived.

157
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:33.399
At the house, Yes, I believe she.

158
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:34.120
Was, alright.

159
00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:36.000
And eight oh nine is the last steps that you

160
00:09:36.120 --> 00:09:38.360
have on this phone before nine oh two.

161
00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:41.840
Correct, that's what the data shows.

162
00:09:50.519 --> 00:10:04.519
Looking now at page fifteen. I'm sorry, page fourteen. Your

163
00:10:04.559 --> 00:10:07.200
stuff that you say when you got the house at

164
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:09.080
eight o nine and Paul is still out of the shop.

165
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:12.840
But don't these records reflect that Paul is hanging with

166
00:10:12.960 --> 00:10:17.080
GPS dad at the house at eight oh eight.

167
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:20.600
This record appears to show Paul at the house at

168
00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:21.120
eight oh eight.

169
00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:24.720
All right, So.

170
00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:29.279
Those records don't fat with your news story that you

171
00:10:29.399 --> 00:10:31.519
testified yesterday and today. Is that correct?

172
00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:36.480
No? I don't believe even right now, mister Watersa, that's right.

173
00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:38.960
I'm not saying. What you're doing is you're taking eight

174
00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:40.600
oh nine and saying.

175
00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:43.720
That I'm at the house, and I mean that may

176
00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:46.320
or may not be right. But what I'm saying is

177
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:51.480
is that when Maggie came through, I left, and I

178
00:10:51.480 --> 00:10:54.639
believe that Paul stayed at the shop.

179
00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.200
Now, did Paul come right behind me? I'm not sure.

180
00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:01.720
But when I when I left him, I believed that

181
00:11:02.159 --> 00:11:03.840
when I left to go to the house, I believe

182
00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:05.480
that Pause stayed at the shop for a minute.

183
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:07.000
When you got to the house, did you put your

184
00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:07.480
phone down?

185
00:11:08.519 --> 00:11:09.240
I'm sure I did.

186
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:11.320
Did you put it in the car in the suburban?

187
00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:16.559
Did I put it in the suburban when you got

188
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:17.120
back to the house.

189
00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:20.159
Did you put it in the suburban? Suburban parked out front?

190
00:11:21.120 --> 00:11:24.159
The suburban would have been part wherever I parked it,

191
00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:27.960
which is where I believe on the side.

192
00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:30.480
Okay, And did you put the phone your phone in the.

193
00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:33.320
Suburban at that time? No, I did not.

194
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:34.279
Where'd you put it?

195
00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:35.759
I'm not sure where I put it?

196
00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:37.320
You're not sure about that either, Huh.

197
00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:39.480
No, I'm not sure. When I went into house, I'm

198
00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:41.159
not sure where I put my phone. I would think

199
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:43.320
that I you know, I would think that I put

200
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:47.279
it down somewhere probably by the couch.

201
00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:50.519
Didn't you testify yesterday when you were being asked by

202
00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:53.559
your lawyer about that pause at Almeda when you were

203
00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:57.080
living leaving and you had a very specific recollection of

204
00:11:57.159 --> 00:11:59.399
your phone had fallen down in the crevice and you

205
00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:00.879
had to pick it up, can get it out? You remember,

206
00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:03.320
testify unto that I do, But you don't remember what

207
00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:04.759
you did with your phone when you got back at

208
00:12:04.759 --> 00:12:05.559
this point, huh.

209
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:09.639
I mean, those are two distinct different things. I'm coming

210
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:11.279
in the house and I put my phone down. I

211
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:12.519
don't have a routine.

212
00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:14.440
Spot that I put it in right on this corner

213
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:17.360
or right there, you know, I would I would assume

214
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:18.720
that when I went in the house, I.

215
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:21.519
Put it somewhere, either on the table you go by,

216
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:23.440
going to the going to the couch.

217
00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:28.159
I may have taken it to the bathroom when I

218
00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:28.840
take a shower.

219
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:35.399
It may have taken me of a few minutes to

220
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.519
go to the shower. So I can't tell you exactly

221
00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:40.240
where I put it.

222
00:12:40.840 --> 00:12:45.120
The story is an awful specific recommend recollection when you

223
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:48.120
need it to try to make the new story that

224
00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:51.679
the jury's hearing and everyone's hearing yesterday and today with

225
00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:56.879
the data, correct, But you're awful fuzzy on far more

226
00:12:56.919 --> 00:12:59.480
important things, aren't you?

227
00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:02.720
Which which question here? I answered the first and first no,

228
00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:07.879
I don't believe that's convenient, and I disagree with your

229
00:13:08.759 --> 00:13:11.399
categorization of the description.

230
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:14.240
All right, but you you remember the console story, but

231
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:16.440
you don't remember where you put your phone, whether or

232
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:18.200
not you took it down to the kennels, whether it

233
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:20.399
was on the uh, you put it in the suburban.

234
00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:23.559
Don't remember any of that. But dad, going, you remember

235
00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:25.159
that console story, right?

236
00:13:25.399 --> 00:13:28.679
Well, I don't remember the console story, but you know

237
00:13:29.039 --> 00:13:32.360
in that suburban, and it's not the first time that

238
00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:35.039
it happened. But when that phone got down there, you

239
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:36.759
had to go to great efforts to get it out,

240
00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:38.840
and you couldn't just reach over there and get it out.

241
00:13:42.279 --> 00:13:42.600
All right.

242
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:45.480
You say when you got to the house that Maggie

243
00:13:45.519 --> 00:13:50.440
was already there, Yes, okay, And we saw your last

244
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:51.639
steps were in eight or nine.

245
00:13:53.200 --> 00:13:57.720
Well that's what you saw when this data recorded my

246
00:13:57.799 --> 00:14:03.240
last steps. But if you heard this testimony too, mister Waters,

247
00:14:04.200 --> 00:14:09.039
you know that's not a precise. That's not a precise, y'all.

248
00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:10.759
You heard the testimony, you know what it is.

249
00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:14.159
Well, how did you get back to the house remind us.

250
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:17.519
From the shop. Yeah, I went in the white pickup truck.

251
00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:18.759
Went in the white pickup truck.

252
00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:19.720
Okay.

253
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:22.279
And when you got into the house, where did you go?

254
00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:27.360
We've already discussed this. I took a shower.

255
00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:30.879
Whether I did things for a moment before I went

256
00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:34.039
to the shower, I'm sure I talked to Maggie because

257
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:36.480
she'd been gone, and if she came through the kennel,

258
00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:39.960
which I believe she did, we only talked briefly, so

259
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:42.440
I would have talked to her, but I would have

260
00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:43.720
quickly gone to take a shower.

261
00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:50.960
Okay. Going over the page sixteen, you would agree with

262
00:14:51.000 --> 00:14:57.000
me that the data reflects Maggie started logging steps and

263
00:14:57.080 --> 00:15:01.159
her phone just connecting from the Mercedes around eight seven, team, right.

264
00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:07.399
I agree at age seventeen her phone ends connection to

265
00:15:07.519 --> 00:15:08.960
her Mercedes.

266
00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:09.960
And starts logging steps.

267
00:15:10.440 --> 00:15:12.480
I don't see that, but I don't dispute it.

268
00:15:12.799 --> 00:15:14.840
All right, Well, you see the purple line talking about

269
00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:16.559
just connecting from the Mercedes.

270
00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:19.000
See, I see where you're talking about. So yeah, I

271
00:15:19.039 --> 00:15:21.799
see at ege seventeen her phone starts logging steps. I

272
00:15:21.799 --> 00:15:22.320
agree with that.

273
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.120
Okay, So what you can see that that appears to

274
00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:26.960
be when she arrived.

275
00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:31.799
Uh No, I don't believe that's when she arrived. I

276
00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:32.360
believe that.

277
00:15:32.879 --> 00:15:38.120
I mean, it was very normal for Maggie when she's

278
00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:41.480
driving to jump out of the car, run inside, go

279
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:44.879
to the bathroom, do things and either send me or

280
00:15:44.919 --> 00:15:47.600
Paul or go back or bust her, or go back

281
00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:51.919
to her car herself and unplurk her phone. So I mean,

282
00:15:51.960 --> 00:15:53.720
I agree that's when her phone's unplugged.

283
00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:55.519
But I believe that Maggie got to the house a

284
00:15:55.559 --> 00:15:58.519
little bit before that. That's the whole reason why Paul

285
00:15:58.519 --> 00:15:59.519
and I went to the house.

286
00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:04.759
Okay, But you're saying Paul arrived after Maggie. Is that

287
00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:07.240
what you're saying got the house?

288
00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:13.679
I believe, So, yes, sir, that's what I recall. And

289
00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:18.080
Paul arrived at the house after I arrived at the house.

290
00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:23.759
I believe. And if Paul.

291
00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:27.000
Got to the house around about at the same time,

292
00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:35.279
he wasn't inside with Maggie and I.

293
00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:34.559
When I take it to the shower.

294
00:16:35.159 --> 00:16:37.960
So you say, if Paul got he wasn't inside with

295
00:16:38.000 --> 00:16:45.799
Maggie and you. Is that what you said? Mister Murdock,

296
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:48.559
Is that what you said, sir? You said, if Paul

297
00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:50.639
got the house prior to that, he wasn't inside with you.

298
00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:51.759
And Maggie, is that what you said.

299
00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:55.080
I'm saying he was not inside when I went to

300
00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:55.840
get into the shower.

301
00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:02.480
Okay, right again, looking back at this down point eight

302
00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:04.440
a way, we see a little blue dock right there

303
00:17:04.440 --> 00:17:05.240
in the middle of the house.

304
00:17:05.279 --> 00:17:14.880
Do yeah, that's what these records show. And it also

305
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:19.359
shows that circle that folks testify to what in the

306
00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:23.799
range of what it could be with him. So I mean,

307
00:17:24.480 --> 00:17:25.279
it clearly could.

308
00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:27.880
Leave of that circle. Look at what was right in

309
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:33.160
the middle of that circle, almost like somebody drew a

310
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:35.160
circle around the house, don't you adreak, Yeah, I do.

311
00:17:35.240 --> 00:17:37.400
But also in that circle is where you would park

312
00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:40.680
a truck if you pulled up, So you know, and

313
00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:43.759
I'm not saying that he wasn't in the house at

314
00:17:43.799 --> 00:17:45.960
some point in time there, but when I went to

315
00:17:46.000 --> 00:17:47.319
get in the shower, he wasn't in.

316
00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:53.839
The house, and he very easily could have been there

317
00:17:53.880 --> 00:17:54.920
and been parked in the yard.

318
00:17:57.119 --> 00:18:09.240
All right. You agree at the bottom of page sixteen

319
00:18:09.400 --> 00:18:13.480
that about eight thirty, Maggie starts tracking stuffs again on

320
00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:15.400
her phone.

321
00:18:16.079 --> 00:18:17.640
Yes, sir, that's what the data shows.

322
00:18:31.400 --> 00:18:36.799
Let's hit the wrong button, and.

323
00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:39.680
You would agree with me that about eight thirty eight,

324
00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:44.119
Paul's fine shows him back up with the countels.

325
00:18:47.240 --> 00:18:50.920
Well, yes, sir, I agree that at eight thirty eight,

326
00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:53.880
let me see which one.

327
00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:55.799
It's hard for me to figure out which one of

328
00:18:55.839 --> 00:18:59.079
these rings, But at eight thirty eight it shows Paul

329
00:18:59.599 --> 00:19:02.079
in which every one of those rings is fifty six

330
00:19:02.200 --> 00:19:17.799
meters why.

331
00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:13.200
And I have no reason to believe he wasn't at

332
00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:13.640
the kennel.

333
00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:18.480
And then eight forty four fifty five, we've already gone

334
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:20.640
through this because that's the kennel video, right, Yes, sir,

335
00:19:20.680 --> 00:19:23.559
that's correct, and you would agree with me that it

336
00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:27.240
lasts about fifty seconds.

337
00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:33.799
Correct, Yes, sir, I agree with debt, and you would.

338
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:37.839
Agree with me. Moving on to page nineteen, that both

339
00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:41.039
Maggie and Paul's phones locked for the final time around

340
00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:41.759
eight forty nine.

341
00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:50.400
That's what the data shows.

342
00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:56.440
After that, you agree that Maggie's phone around eight fifty

343
00:19:56.440 --> 00:19:57.960
three shows some steps being taken.

344
00:19:58.720 --> 00:20:00.319
That's what the data shows, yes, sir.

345
00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:02.880
Leader doesn't showho's carrying ever, That's what it shows is

346
00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:03.440
that correct.

347
00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:10.839
That is correct, And then.

348
00:20:10.799 --> 00:20:13.160
You would agree with me that from nine oh two

349
00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:17.279
tonight o six, your phone finally comes to life and

350
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:20.359
it starts showing a lot of stuffs.

351
00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:22.200
I do agree with that.

352
00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:22.880
What were you doing?

353
00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:26.079
I was getting ready to go to my mom's house.

354
00:20:25.920 --> 00:20:27.960
Getting ready to go. I thought you like a shower already.

355
00:20:27.960 --> 00:20:29.319
You were just laying down on the couch. But what

356
00:20:29.400 --> 00:20:30.440
all you need to do to get ready to.

357
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:31.160
Go to your mom's house.

358
00:20:31.799 --> 00:20:34.480
I mean, there wasn't anything to get ready in that aspect.

359
00:20:35.200 --> 00:20:37.759
I was getting ready to go. I was preparing to

360
00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:40.759
leave to doing what. I don't know if I got up,

361
00:20:40.920 --> 00:20:43.160
I went to the bathroom, I don't know. I can't

362
00:20:43.160 --> 00:20:44.640
tell you exactly what I was doing.

363
00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:46.720
And that's far more steps in the shorter time period

364
00:20:46.720 --> 00:20:50.160
than any time prior, as you've seen from the testimony

365
00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:52.119
in this case. So what were you so busy doing?

366
00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:54.400
That's going to the bathroom?

367
00:20:54.680 --> 00:20:56.680
No, no, no, I don't think that I get on

368
00:20:56.759 --> 00:20:57.720
all the bathroom.

369
00:20:57.759 --> 00:20:57.799
No.

370
00:20:57.839 --> 00:21:01.640
I didn't get on a treadmill place, nope. I didn't

371
00:21:01.720 --> 00:21:04.720
jog in place, No, sir, I did not do jumping that.

372
00:21:05.599 --> 00:21:07.319
What were you doing with Murdoculo's four.

373
00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:10.839
Minutes preparing to leave for my mom's house.

374
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:13.160
What what does that mean? I mean, you're in the

375
00:21:13.200 --> 00:21:15.960
front room on that couch where you say you laid down.

376
00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:18.640
The suburban's just right outside. What all are you doing?

377
00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:19.240
I don't know.

378
00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:21.119
If I got up and went to my room, went

379
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:23.599
to the gun room, went back in that.

380
00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:26.200
Doing what You've been so clear in your new story

381
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:29.240
about everything, What were you doing during these four minutes?

382
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:35.799
I disagree with your assertion about every detail.

383
00:21:36.359 --> 00:21:39.839
I don't recall. I know that I was getting up

384
00:21:40.119 --> 00:21:42.079
and I was leaving. I was going to check on

385
00:21:42.119 --> 00:21:44.240
my mom.

386
00:21:44.519 --> 00:21:49.039
That's specifically what I was doing. I don't I don't know. Okay,

387
00:21:53.720 --> 00:21:56.039
I know what I wasn't doing, mister Waters. And what

388
00:21:56.119 --> 00:21:59.079
I wasn't doing is doing anything.

389
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:04.599
As I believe you've implied that I was cleaning off

390
00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:07.640
or washing off or washing off guns, or putting guns

391
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:10.039
in a rain coat. And I can promise you that

392
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:11.319
I wasn't doing any of that.

393
00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:15.160
Okay. Also, during this four minutes where you got two

394
00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:19.880
hundred and eighty three steps, not only are you moving

395
00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:21.559
around a lot, but you're making a ton of phone

396
00:22:21.599 --> 00:22:23.799
calls because that in that same time period, you see

397
00:22:23.799 --> 00:22:26.680
this rip line right here where over that four minute

398
00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:30.160
period all those steps were taken. That's also when you're

399
00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:32.039
calling making all these phone calls.

400
00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:36.480
Isn't it, mister Murdoch, Well, I made the phone calls.

401
00:22:36.119 --> 00:22:37.319
Slas and making phone calls.

402
00:22:37.359 --> 00:22:41.039
Is that what I'm allowed to answer? Before mister Waters

403
00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:46.559
steps on him again with another question, please thank him.

404
00:22:47.640 --> 00:22:49.440
You were making all these phone calls while you were

405
00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:52.200
taking all these steps. Would you conceive that where you

406
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:53.400
don't remember what you were doing?

407
00:22:54.039 --> 00:22:58.839
Well, I was making phone calls and that shown here

408
00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:02.000
at nine oh five, I call my dad. You know,

409
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:05.839
I don't know that I was taking steps like you're saying,

410
00:23:05.880 --> 00:23:08.359
I'm taking steps. I heard the same testimony you heard,

411
00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:12.759
mister Waters, and you know steps can be recorded any

412
00:23:12.839 --> 00:23:16.039
number of ways. I don't have a specific recollection of

413
00:23:16.119 --> 00:23:16.640
walking around.

414
00:23:16.640 --> 00:23:18.119
I don't know if I was hitting my phone like

415
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:20.599
the guys showed or doing whatever that makes steps.

416
00:23:20.680 --> 00:23:22.519
But you know you were hit with your phone like

417
00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:24.240
that while you were making all these phone calls.

418
00:23:24.680 --> 00:23:26.759
No, what I'm saying, mister Words, I don't know that.

419
00:23:27.000 --> 00:23:30.200
I'm just giving you an example. You're saying that I'm

420
00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:33.559
running around taking these steps and while I'm doing that,

421
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:35.559
I'm making telephone calls.

422
00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:37.359
What I will agree with is.

423
00:23:37.319 --> 00:23:41.599
That this data shows that there was two hundred and

424
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:42.880
eighty three steps.

425
00:23:42.519 --> 00:23:48.119
Recorded on my phone, and sometime during that period, I

426
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:50.279
made certain phone calls.

427
00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:53.960
Okay, all right, So not only for whatever it is

428
00:23:54.160 --> 00:23:58.279
is recording steps, which you're also making a ton of

429
00:23:58.319 --> 00:24:05.559
phone calls, including missed calls to Maggie who is eleven

430
00:24:05.640 --> 00:24:06.400
hundred feet away.

431
00:24:06.839 --> 00:24:10.039
Supposedly you're using the term a ton of phone calls.

432
00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:12.920
What I agree is that I made the phone calls

433
00:24:13.000 --> 00:24:16.720
that are listed on these call data records.

434
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:17.200
Which.

435
00:24:18.400 --> 00:24:20.480
You know are very normal phone calls from me.

436
00:24:23.480 --> 00:24:28.279
Do you know why so many phone calls were missing

437
00:24:28.319 --> 00:24:31.480
from the log around this relevant time period when law

438
00:24:31.519 --> 00:24:36.000
enforcement downloaded your phone on June tenth.

439
00:24:35.079 --> 00:24:37.559
From my phone? Yeah, no, I don't.

440
00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:39.160
Did you delete them, mister Murdock?

441
00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:44.519
Not intentionally, just around time June seventh, all these calls

442
00:24:44.519 --> 00:24:46.440
were missing, but you had nothing to do with that.

443
00:24:46.720 --> 00:24:49.039
Between June seventh and June tenth.

444
00:24:49.359 --> 00:24:52.000
No, sir, I did not, and I did not delete

445
00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:53.839
phone calls from my phone. Mister.

446
00:24:53.880 --> 00:24:56.119
What is one of the most important things in this

447
00:24:56.240 --> 00:25:01.880
whole thing for me has been getting this data that

448
00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:07.480
I believe would exist. Phone calls and phone records would

449
00:25:07.519 --> 00:25:10.640
be part of that. I've been in enough civil cases

450
00:25:10.680 --> 00:25:14.920
and used phone records enough times to know that you

451
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.119
delete a phone call from your phone, it doesn't disappear.

452
00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:23.559
So I can tell you this jury and everybody who's

453
00:25:23.680 --> 00:25:28.680
listening that I did not intentionally delete phone calls from

454
00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:29.200
my phone.

455
00:25:29.319 --> 00:25:31.960
Yeah, because you started talking about that. You're a former

456
00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:36.079
prosecutor correct, and former lawyer doing civil cases. We went

457
00:25:36.119 --> 00:25:39.480
through that yesterday and boy, you're busy bee on my

458
00:25:39.640 --> 00:25:42.240
phone right out of the gate A nine are two?

459
00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:42.519
Right?

460
00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:46.440
Production's overruled.

461
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:51.640
Am I a busy bee? Yep, I am using my

462
00:25:51.799 --> 00:25:57.839
telephone at I think I call at nine oh five,

463
00:25:57.920 --> 00:26:00.119
I start and call my dad, and I agreed that

464
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:01.279
I made other phone costs.

465
00:26:01.359 --> 00:26:03.400
And one of the first things you started talking about

466
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:07.839
with law enforcement is these calls that you made to Maggie.

467
00:26:08.799 --> 00:26:11.400
Correct you remember recall that from your first statement to

468
00:26:11.480 --> 00:26:12.119
law enforcement.

469
00:26:12.720 --> 00:26:15.400
One of the first things did I said to law enforcement?

470
00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:16.960
Yeah, that's one of the things you talk about I'm

471
00:26:16.960 --> 00:26:19.319
talking about with your interview with Special Agent Dave Owen.

472
00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:24.519
I don't remember that being the first thing we talked about.

473
00:26:24.519 --> 00:26:28.359
But if mister Owens asked me about it, then I

474
00:26:30.359 --> 00:26:32.079
didn't you I did?

475
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:36.599
You don't recall, No, I don't. I don't recall.

476
00:26:36.880 --> 00:26:38.400
Would you just give me if I said you brought

477
00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:41.839
it up that I brought up? What brought up what,

478
00:26:42.279 --> 00:26:44.839
mister Murdock, your phone phone.

479
00:26:44.559 --> 00:26:45.400
Calls to Maggie?

480
00:26:45.480 --> 00:26:45.799
Yes?

481
00:26:46.240 --> 00:26:48.680
Did I brought up phone costs to Maggie to David Owens.

482
00:26:49.839 --> 00:26:52.480
I'm asking you, is that one of the things that

483
00:26:52.559 --> 00:26:55.000
you talked about in your first interview with Dave Owen,

484
00:26:56.039 --> 00:26:58.400
that you pulled out your phone and started looking at it,

485
00:26:58.440 --> 00:27:00.240
that you brought that up. Do you recall that?

486
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:03.039
Well, but that's not what you asked mister Owens. You

487
00:27:03.599 --> 00:27:03.960
asked me.

488
00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:06.079
Was that the first thing that I talked to him about,

489
00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:09.359
and that was the discrepancy. I certainly don't dispute that

490
00:27:09.440 --> 00:27:15.400
mister Owens and I talked about phone calls, but that's

491
00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:16.119
not what you said.

492
00:27:16.240 --> 00:27:18.720
So just to be clear, Well, the real reason, mister

493
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:26.559
Murdoch is that you, as a lawyer and prosecutor, are

494
00:27:26.680 --> 00:27:29.640
up at nine oh two finally having your phone in

495
00:27:29.799 --> 00:27:33.119
your hand, moving around and making all these phone calls

496
00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:36.160
to manufacture and alibi. Is that not true?

497
00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:37.839
That's absolutely incorrect.

498
00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:43.279
So that's just another circumstance and coincidence in this particular case,

499
00:27:44.759 --> 00:27:48.759
right around the time that you lied to law enforcement

500
00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:50.920
about maybe one of the most important facts in the case.

501
00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:56.240
I meant before the question, it is an absolute fact

502
00:27:56.400 --> 00:27:59.759
that I am not manufacturing an alibi.

503
00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:02.680
As you say, how do you remember so much detail

504
00:28:02.680 --> 00:28:05.200
about everything else, but you don't remember what you were

505
00:28:05.240 --> 00:28:08.200
specifically doing to generate two hundred and eighty three steps

506
00:28:08.240 --> 00:28:10.559
while you're making these all these phone calls in the

507
00:28:10.640 --> 00:28:11.880
same four minute period.

508
00:28:12.200 --> 00:28:16.400
I remember, unequivocally, without any doubt, with as clear a

509
00:28:16.480 --> 00:28:20.480
mind as I could have at any time.

510
00:28:20.960 --> 00:28:26.720
Did I never manufactured any alibi in any way, shape

511
00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:31.400
or form, because I did not and would not hurt

512
00:28:31.400 --> 00:28:33.079
my wife and my child.

513
00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:36.680
So I know for a fact, did I never ever

514
00:28:37.279 --> 00:28:39.720
ever created an alibi?

515
00:28:39.880 --> 00:28:42.039
Why don't you remember what you were doing when you

516
00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:46.000
were so busy for this four minute critical period. I

517
00:28:46.000 --> 00:28:48.960
do remember what I was doing other than I was

518
00:28:49.799 --> 00:28:50.559
getting ready to go.

519
00:28:51.519 --> 00:28:53.559
Well, that's because that's what I was doing.

520
00:29:10.440 --> 00:29:24.119
Okay, Well, let's keep going. You made those calls to

521
00:29:24.240 --> 00:29:29.920
Maggie in that four minute period you had just seen

522
00:29:29.960 --> 00:29:33.759
them a few minutes ago. When you say you went

523
00:29:33.799 --> 00:29:37.839
down there and came right back, why didn't you just

524
00:29:39.240 --> 00:29:43.519
take that quick little left elen hundred yards away and

525
00:29:43.599 --> 00:29:46.559
stop by. See why they didn't answer the call. You're

526
00:29:46.559 --> 00:29:48.319
obviously wanting to get in touch with them. Why didn't

527
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:53.440
you go down to the kennels that were so close by?

528
00:29:54.319 --> 00:29:55.240
There was no reason to.

529
00:29:59.240 --> 00:30:03.519
I mean, can multiple miscalls to Maggie and she's so close,

530
00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:06.720
and there's a driveway right there, why do you not

531
00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:08.799
just go down there and say, hey, guys, I'm heading

532
00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:09.240
over there.

533
00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:11.519
It wasn't important to do that.

534
00:30:11.720 --> 00:30:15.359
Me me making those phone calls is simply me letting

535
00:30:16.119 --> 00:30:18.359
I believe I called Maggie in I believe called I

536
00:30:18.400 --> 00:30:22.839
called Paul. But that that that's simply me just letting

537
00:30:22.839 --> 00:30:25.279
them know that I'm leaving for a minute. I'll be back.

538
00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:31.640
The fact that that they don't answer, it's not unusual

539
00:30:31.759 --> 00:30:37.000
at all. Now, it is odd, it is unusual that

540
00:30:37.039 --> 00:30:38.279
they never called me back.

541
00:30:39.920 --> 00:30:42.519
And but but at that moment, the fact that there's a.

542
00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:45.799
Miscall when when I know they're on the property, I mean,

543
00:30:45.960 --> 00:30:51.079
that doesn't even register at all. That's perfectly normal to

544
00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:53.240
try to call somebody who's on the property and not

545
00:30:53.279 --> 00:30:57.039
be able to get them. And and as far as

546
00:30:57.119 --> 00:31:00.680
not going down there, there was no sense of urgency.

547
00:31:01.079 --> 00:31:06.960
Maggie was with Paul. You know, she should be as

548
00:31:06.960 --> 00:31:11.079
safe as she could be.

549
00:31:16.720 --> 00:31:17.359
Man, she sure.

550
00:31:27.720 --> 00:31:31.839
Did you talk with Maggie about going to Almeda when

551
00:31:31.839 --> 00:31:33.519
you were at the kennels?

552
00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:35.960
No, I don't believe I did.

553
00:31:36.200 --> 00:31:40.359
Did you talk with Maggie about going to Almeda during supper?

554
00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:44.839
I know that we had talked about it, I had talked.

555
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:46.880
I don't believe we talked about it at supper, but

556
00:31:46.960 --> 00:31:49.039
we may have. I know that I had talked about

557
00:31:49.960 --> 00:31:52.119
that I was going to go over there, and then

558
00:31:53.200 --> 00:31:55.240
I decided that I wasn't going to go over there.

559
00:31:55.960 --> 00:31:58.599
But what was your conversation a supper? Tell me specifically,

560
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:02.079
if you could, please, that's all going to all meet him.

561
00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:05.400
I can't tell you that we specifically talked about that.

562
00:32:05.480 --> 00:32:07.640
The only thing that I can tell you we specifically

563
00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:09.160
talked about that supper.

564
00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:12.240
Was Paul Paul all right? And what was the conversation.

565
00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:24.200
Maggie was just concerned Paul.

566
00:32:24.200 --> 00:32:27.519
Paul had been having For a young person, Paul had

567
00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:31.480
been having high blood pressure and he's very resistant to

568
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:32.279
go to the doctor.

569
00:32:33.079 --> 00:32:37.319
And this has been going on for a little while, but.

570
00:32:38.279 --> 00:32:41.640
Lately Paul's feet had swollen, and for twenty two year

571
00:32:41.640 --> 00:32:46.079
old to have start having swollen feet concerned both of us,

572
00:32:46.319 --> 00:32:49.400
and it particularly concerned Maggie, and we talked about that.

573
00:32:50.279 --> 00:32:55.400
Okay, did y'all talk about mister Randolph and all?

574
00:32:56.720 --> 00:32:58.000
I'm sure we did.

575
00:32:58.680 --> 00:33:01.400
Do you remember that group text and in about uh,

576
00:33:01.680 --> 00:33:03.680
whether or not anybody was gonna go see mister Randolph

577
00:33:03.720 --> 00:33:04.839
at the hospital the next time?

578
00:33:05.440 --> 00:33:08.200
Do I remember it coming in? I don't remember it coming.

579
00:33:08.000 --> 00:33:09.400
In because you didn't read it until the next day.

580
00:33:09.440 --> 00:33:11.200
But I've seen it. I've seen the data.

581
00:33:11.559 --> 00:33:14.839
Why didn't you? Did you ever text the group and

582
00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:17.119
say you were going to al Meeta at all?

583
00:33:18.680 --> 00:33:18.720
No?

584
00:33:20.480 --> 00:33:23.599
Did Maggie ever? Did you and Maggie ever specifically discuss

585
00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:26.000
her going along with you to al Meeta?

586
00:33:28.519 --> 00:33:29.880
I don't believe that we did.

587
00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:33.200
I know that there was a point in time where

588
00:33:33.200 --> 00:33:37.880
I said Maggie might go, but it's highly unusual for

589
00:33:38.039 --> 00:33:42.519
Maggie to go and visit just my mom. That that

590
00:33:42.839 --> 00:33:48.000
whole situation, it just made it made Maggie sad and

591
00:33:48.079 --> 00:33:52.599
she didn't like to go, so you I don't believe

592
00:33:52.640 --> 00:33:55.279
that we did, but I do acknowledge that at some

593
00:33:55.359 --> 00:33:57.400
point I said she might go for some reason.

594
00:33:57.920 --> 00:34:02.880
You told law enforcement on in multiple cas that, first

595
00:34:02.920 --> 00:34:05.599
of all, Maggie was claiming to stay at Autistow the

596
00:34:05.680 --> 00:34:06.920
night of June seventh. Correct.

597
00:34:07.400 --> 00:34:08.719
I did say that, all right.

598
00:34:08.760 --> 00:34:11.960
And you also said that you came to find out

599
00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:14.639
that she came home of her own accord. Correct. You

600
00:34:14.719 --> 00:34:16.840
told that to law enforcement. Is that true?

601
00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:20.320
She did come home of her own accord.

602
00:34:20.039 --> 00:34:22.639
That she decided on her own to come home because

603
00:34:22.639 --> 00:34:24.960
she was worried about you. Didn't that what you said?

604
00:34:25.360 --> 00:34:28.679
I did say that. I believe that to be the case.

605
00:34:28.400 --> 00:34:28.760
All right.

606
00:34:28.760 --> 00:34:32.000
But since we've despite what you told law enforcement, we've

607
00:34:32.000 --> 00:34:36.719
seen the texts that you actually called her and asked

608
00:34:36.719 --> 00:34:38.880
her to come home on the night of June seventh.

609
00:34:39.039 --> 00:34:40.320
No, sir, that's not correct.

610
00:34:40.480 --> 00:34:41.320
That's not correct.

611
00:34:41.519 --> 00:34:43.320
No, sir, that's absolutely not correct.

612
00:34:43.400 --> 00:34:43.559
Right.

613
00:34:43.639 --> 00:34:46.719
So you heard your sister in law, Marian taysifight in

614
00:34:46.840 --> 00:34:49.199
just that fact of a conversation she had with Maggie.

615
00:34:49.239 --> 00:34:51.440
But you're saying that's not true.

616
00:34:51.760 --> 00:34:54.079
I don't believe that's what Marion said.

617
00:34:54.920 --> 00:34:59.280
And your defense put in this exhibit Exhibit one oh seven,

618
00:35:01.159 --> 00:35:03.639
where Maggie texted Blanca and said, Alec wants me to

619
00:35:03.639 --> 00:35:04.079
come home.

620
00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:06.559
I've seen that. I agree with that.

621
00:35:07.719 --> 00:35:09.679
He's not it up on the stream. Up. I've got

622
00:35:09.679 --> 00:35:11.159
a long handle with here. I just told it up.

623
00:35:13.679 --> 00:35:14.599
You've seen this text.

624
00:35:15.119 --> 00:35:17.760
I have seen that, mister water is the only dispute

625
00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:19.119
I have with what you're saying.

626
00:35:18.960 --> 00:35:23.119
Is you're saying that I called Maggie and wanted her

627
00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:23.679
to come home.

628
00:35:24.280 --> 00:35:27.679
I always wanted Maggie to come home, and I would

629
00:35:27.719 --> 00:35:30.239
have talked to Maggie about coming home before she ever

630
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:36.800
left to go to Charleston and to Edistone. And I

631
00:35:36.840 --> 00:35:41.239
can tell you this, and I didn't realize this at

632
00:35:41.239 --> 00:35:44.360
the time, but I realize it now that.

633
00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:48.480
Maggie was already undecided.

634
00:35:49.159 --> 00:35:52.719
Now I didn't know this, but Maggie was already undecided

635
00:35:52.760 --> 00:35:55.599
about staying at Edistone.

636
00:35:55.679 --> 00:35:57.599
I can promise you that, because.

637
00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:03.760
Bubba and gret were in their kennels, as y'all well know,

638
00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:05.719
that night.

639
00:36:07.519 --> 00:36:11.199
That day, if Maggie was certain that she was spending

640
00:36:11.199 --> 00:36:11.880
the night at.

641
00:36:11.800 --> 00:36:14.639
Edistowe, at a minimum, Bubba would have been with her

642
00:36:14.800 --> 00:36:17.320
and probably both dogs would have been with her. It

643
00:36:17.400 --> 00:36:20.119
was very unusual for her to spend the night anywhere

644
00:36:20.719 --> 00:36:26.039
without one of us or those dogs. So that tells

645
00:36:26.079 --> 00:36:30.000
me that when she left that morning, she was already

646
00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:32.719
seriously thinking about coming back.

647
00:36:33.159 --> 00:36:34.920
So you're saying that you never called her and had

648
00:36:34.960 --> 00:36:38.440
a conversation that day asking her to come home. Specifically,

649
00:36:38.440 --> 00:36:41.039
on the night of June seventh, twenty twenty one.

650
00:36:41.880 --> 00:36:44.639
Maggie and I had a couple of phone conversations that day.

651
00:36:44.920 --> 00:36:49.000
What I'm telling you is that before she left. No,

652
00:36:49.320 --> 00:36:51.559
I don't believe we had a phone call about that.

653
00:36:51.599 --> 00:36:53.599
We may have discussed during the phone call, but I

654
00:36:53.639 --> 00:36:55.800
didn't make a phone call to her to ask her

655
00:36:55.800 --> 00:36:59.199
to come home. I had already told her I wanted

656
00:36:59.239 --> 00:37:02.440
her to come home. I always wanted her to come home.

657
00:37:02.480 --> 00:37:05.159
You heard Mary and say that too, that I always

658
00:37:05.199 --> 00:37:06.239
wanted Maggie with me.

659
00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:09.679
Maggie thought enough of her to talk about it with Mariyan.

660
00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:10.199
Didn't she.

661
00:37:11.639 --> 00:37:13.239
The fact that I wanted her to come home?

662
00:37:13.400 --> 00:37:13.760
Correct?

663
00:37:16.679 --> 00:37:19.239
Well, sure, I mean that's what Marian said.

664
00:37:19.760 --> 00:37:22.440
So you're denying that you called Maggie and specifically asked

665
00:37:22.440 --> 00:37:23.440
her to come home that night.

666
00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:27.320
I didn't make a phone call to Maggie to ask

667
00:37:27.360 --> 00:37:30.360
her to come home that night. I asked Maggie to

668
00:37:30.400 --> 00:37:36.199
come home long before she ever left, and I probably

669
00:37:36.239 --> 00:37:39.079
asked her again each time I talked to her, But

670
00:37:39.199 --> 00:37:41.760
I didn't make the phone call specifically.

671
00:37:41.119 --> 00:37:53.960
For that, as you're saying. And to be clear, I'm.

672
00:37:53.880 --> 00:37:57.639
Certain that if Maggie was certain that she was spending

673
00:37:57.639 --> 00:38:02.320
the night, bubb would have been with her and probably Grady.

674
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:17.519
All right, why did you tell law enforcement there that

675
00:38:17.559 --> 00:38:19.840
you found out after the fact that Maggie wanted to

676
00:38:19.840 --> 00:38:22.400
come home because she was concerned about you. Why did

677
00:38:22.440 --> 00:38:24.119
you phrase it that way? If what you're saying to

678
00:38:24.159 --> 00:38:27.679
the jury now was accurate, why would you phrase it

679
00:38:27.719 --> 00:38:28.079
that way?

680
00:38:28.199 --> 00:38:30.280
Because I believe that to be the case that.

681
00:38:30.199 --> 00:38:32.280
You found out afterwards. But now you're saying you knew.

682
00:38:32.599 --> 00:38:35.360
No, I'm saying I found out afterwards why she came home,

683
00:38:35.400 --> 00:38:39.880
mister Waters, and she came home because she was worried

684
00:38:39.880 --> 00:38:43.360
about me. So I'm going to be clear about that.

685
00:38:43.760 --> 00:38:50.079
I did not learn that until I think today, after

686
00:38:50.159 --> 00:38:50.960
she got killed.

687
00:38:52.960 --> 00:38:56.400
But you're saying that you found out that after the fact,

688
00:38:56.400 --> 00:39:00.239
that you're telling this jury that you knew the things

689
00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:02.880
that you just said about her wanting to come home,

690
00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:06.159
and you were unaware of what Marian would say at

691
00:39:06.199 --> 00:39:06.760
that point either.

692
00:39:06.840 --> 00:39:09.239
No, I'm saying at that time I had not thought

693
00:39:09.239 --> 00:39:13.599
about bub and Grady. Since that time I thought about that,

694
00:39:13.719 --> 00:39:16.119
I'm certain of that. At the time, I thought Maggie

695
00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:20.039
was staying at Edistowe, all right. She was going to

696
00:39:20.199 --> 00:39:23.719
Edistow to meet the people to do the work.

697
00:39:24.159 --> 00:39:27.559
Maggie loved to stay at Edistowe. There's no doubt about that.

698
00:39:28.760 --> 00:39:31.159
It would not be unusual at all for her to

699
00:39:31.199 --> 00:39:33.239
stay at Edistowe.

700
00:39:33.480 --> 00:39:37.400
But just like every other time, I had already asked

701
00:39:37.440 --> 00:39:42.360
her please come back, come back, always wanted her to

702
00:39:42.400 --> 00:39:51.719
stay with me always, But I did not learn about

703
00:39:51.760 --> 00:39:57.400
and Maggie even texted me I'll see you in a

704
00:39:57.440 --> 00:40:01.599
few hours. But I I did not know why she

705
00:40:01.719 --> 00:40:13.800
decided to come back until later. It's what I'm saying,

706
00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:18.920
and I learned it from Blanco. Blanca actually showed me

707
00:40:18.960 --> 00:40:25.480
the text that she sent her talking about being worried

708
00:40:25.519 --> 00:40:25.880
about me.

709
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:35.800
You would agree with me that you sent a text

710
00:40:36.960 --> 00:40:40.079
to Maggie at nine to eight fifty eight while in

711
00:40:40.119 --> 00:40:43.519
motion in the suburban that's reflected by the data.

712
00:40:44.039 --> 00:40:54.199
I do, which was because I couldn't reach them by

713
00:40:54.199 --> 00:40:57.760
the telephone and I wanted them to know where I was. Okay,

714
00:41:01.440 --> 00:41:02.280
which is what we do.

715
00:41:06.880 --> 00:41:09.280
And you got to our meet around nine twenty two.

716
00:41:11.480 --> 00:41:15.360
I believe that's correct. I can go out, Uh, I don't.

717
00:41:15.440 --> 00:41:18.000
I don't have any reason to dispute.

718
00:41:18.039 --> 00:41:38.079
That made some more phone calls along the way.

719
00:41:40.000 --> 00:41:42.440
I did make more phone calls along the way while I.

720
00:41:42.360 --> 00:41:45.119
Was riding, called Chrus Wilson.

721
00:41:45.719 --> 00:42:01.920
I did call Chris Wilson, got a short conversation with him.

722
00:42:02.079 --> 00:42:02.559
Is that right?

723
00:42:03.599 --> 00:42:07.880
I did have a conversation for half a long the record.

724
00:42:07.519 --> 00:42:10.000
Show about a one one hundred and thirty one seconds,

725
00:42:10.039 --> 00:42:11.320
So that sounded aut right.

726
00:42:12.280 --> 00:42:14.679
If that's what the record show two minutes.

727
00:42:14.760 --> 00:42:17.840
Called your brother John Marvin for about a hundred and

728
00:42:17.840 --> 00:42:20.280
six seconds in coding connection times, that sounds about right.

729
00:42:20.360 --> 00:42:21.599
It does sound about right.

730
00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:31.880
Arrived at nine twenty two.

731
00:42:32.119 --> 00:42:33.000
Is that sounded al right?

732
00:42:34.559 --> 00:42:35.000
It does?

733
00:42:45.239 --> 00:42:49.599
And then at nine twenty four you call that's the

734
00:42:49.679 --> 00:42:51.920
landline at I'll meet us. Is that correct?

735
00:42:54.760 --> 00:42:55.559
That is correct?

736
00:42:57.599 --> 00:42:59.239
And then you went inside? Is that right?

737
00:43:02.280 --> 00:43:06.440
Yeah? That's right, that's right. Called the house phone to

738
00:43:06.440 --> 00:43:07.559
get Shelley to let me in.

739
00:43:10.519 --> 00:43:13.440
And when you were asked by law enforcement how long

740
00:43:13.679 --> 00:43:15.679
you were at your mother's house, you said forty five

741
00:43:15.679 --> 00:43:17.440
minutes to an hour. Wasn't that correct?

742
00:43:18.440 --> 00:43:20.599
I think I said a couple of different things, but

743
00:43:20.800 --> 00:43:23.920
I think at one time I did say that. But

744
00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:28.719
you know, routinely through these things, I kept saying, you know,

745
00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:32.519
when you get this data, you'll see exactly when you

746
00:43:32.559 --> 00:43:35.039
look at my phone, you'll see exactly when you do

747
00:43:35.199 --> 00:43:40.920
you know, So you know, me giving the times was

748
00:43:40.960 --> 00:43:46.480
always given with the thought that, Okay, there's on star

749
00:43:46.639 --> 00:43:48.599
out there, there's whatever.

750
00:43:49.039 --> 00:43:51.800
Well, when you had a conversation with miss Shelley after

751
00:43:51.800 --> 00:43:54.400
the fact, you actually asked her to say that you

752
00:43:54.440 --> 00:43:56.719
were there longer than twenty minutes.

753
00:43:59.320 --> 00:44:04.599
You know, I heard Shelley's testimony. I believe Shelley to

754
00:44:04.639 --> 00:44:11.079
be a good person. I wasn't trying to influence Shelley

755
00:44:11.159 --> 00:44:16.280
on any particular length of time because at the beginning

756
00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:19.960
of this I believe that data would show what data

757
00:44:20.000 --> 00:44:23.440
would show, and for me to tell her to say

758
00:44:23.519 --> 00:44:26.960
something when my own star's going to show something different

759
00:44:27.199 --> 00:44:28.639
just doesn't make any sense.

760
00:44:29.320 --> 00:44:34.800
So you know, I can't answer that. What my recollection

761
00:44:34.960 --> 00:44:35.320
is is.

762
00:44:35.239 --> 00:44:38.400
That I told Shelley that law enforcement would be talking

763
00:44:38.440 --> 00:44:41.400
to her. We may have discussed how long I was

764
00:44:41.480 --> 00:44:44.559
there at that point in time. If I thought I

765
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:47.559
was there forty five minutes, I may have said I

766
00:44:47.599 --> 00:44:48.840
was here forty five minutes.

767
00:44:48.920 --> 00:44:52.559
But you know I can't tell you, right.

768
00:44:53.320 --> 00:44:58.920
That's that Blocker testify too, that you talked to her

769
00:44:59.119 --> 00:45:02.840
about the close that you were wearing. It made her uncomfortable.

770
00:45:02.840 --> 00:45:08.039
Correct asked that question again.

771
00:45:09.280 --> 00:45:13.639
It's similar to your conversation with Blanca that she testified

772
00:45:13.639 --> 00:45:15.800
about when you talked to her about the clothes that

773
00:45:15.880 --> 00:45:19.400
you were supposedly wearing. What made her feel uncomfortable? Do

774
00:45:19.440 --> 00:45:20.480
you remember that testimony?

775
00:45:20.480 --> 00:45:21.800
Sir? What's similar to that?

776
00:45:22.079 --> 00:45:25.239
Well, that you're talking to both of these individuals about

777
00:45:25.239 --> 00:45:28.360
their testimony in a manner that's inconsistent with what they know.

778
00:45:28.760 --> 00:45:30.199
No, I don't, I don't think.

779
00:45:30.840 --> 00:45:31.119
I don't.

780
00:45:31.159 --> 00:45:33.280
I don't think your assertion is accurate. You have to

781
00:45:33.360 --> 00:45:33.960
understand this.

782
00:45:34.519 --> 00:45:38.159
On August the eleventh, when I went to meet with

783
00:45:38.280 --> 00:45:44.599
David Owens, and in that David Owens asked me about

784
00:45:45.079 --> 00:45:47.639
he showed me that snapchat and asked me about clothes

785
00:45:48.280 --> 00:45:56.519
that I had on. And shortly after that, the next

786
00:45:56.599 --> 00:46:02.840
time I was with Blanca. I asked Blanca about those

787
00:46:02.840 --> 00:46:06.119
clothes because David Owens.

788
00:46:06.360 --> 00:46:07.480
Had asked me about him.

789
00:46:07.559 --> 00:46:11.159
It was making made an issue about it, and so

790
00:46:12.599 --> 00:46:18.000
I checked with Blanca to see what I specifically asked Blanca,

791
00:46:18.119 --> 00:46:20.800
and it was an issue to me. So I got

792
00:46:20.840 --> 00:46:23.119
Blanc and I said, I need you to sit down

793
00:46:23.119 --> 00:46:24.280
and talk with me about this.

794
00:46:24.280 --> 00:46:29.639
This is important. Do you remember my clothes.

795
00:46:30.760 --> 00:46:34.960
When you came to Mozelle that day? And she remembered

796
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:38.280
exactly what she testified to. She remembered that my pants

797
00:46:38.320 --> 00:46:40.719
were there. She wasn't sure if the shirt was there

798
00:46:42.119 --> 00:46:44.679
at that time. I think she actually thought the shirt

799
00:46:44.719 --> 00:46:46.800
was there, but she was clear that she wasn't sure

800
00:46:46.840 --> 00:46:47.239
about that.

801
00:46:49.760 --> 00:46:52.639
But oh no, no, she wasn't unsure, but she didn't

802
00:46:52.719 --> 00:46:57.679
remember but assumed that it was. So that was the

803
00:46:57.719 --> 00:47:02.079
conversation that and why I was asking Blanca.

804
00:47:02.519 --> 00:47:05.199
Right again, you're very specific about your memories of that conversation.

805
00:47:05.280 --> 00:47:06.199
Is that correct, mister Murna.

806
00:47:06.360 --> 00:47:10.679
You dang right. I'm consistent about that because a very

807
00:47:10.719 --> 00:47:16.239
short time before that, David Owens is asking me questions

808
00:47:16.880 --> 00:47:20.599
and telling me I'm a suspect in the murder of

809
00:47:20.639 --> 00:47:23.960
my wife and my child and asking me about my clothes.

810
00:47:24.039 --> 00:47:27.360
You dang right, it was important. It was important, right,

811
00:47:27.400 --> 00:47:30.719
and you dang right. I remember why I went to her,

812
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:31.719
and for what reason?

813
00:47:32.000 --> 00:47:34.559
Because the only thing you're concerned about is yourself. You're

814
00:47:34.559 --> 00:47:39.000
not concerned about giving accurate information to law enforcement. Correct.

815
00:47:41.360 --> 00:47:43.599
What's the reason for that, mister Murdock. Why don't you

816
00:47:43.639 --> 00:47:46.480
want to give accurate information to law enforcement? Why do

817
00:47:46.519 --> 00:47:49.480
you want to talk to these women who both are

818
00:47:49.480 --> 00:47:51.920
employed by you or your family and try to influence

819
00:47:52.119 --> 00:47:53.079
what they were going to say.

820
00:47:54.239 --> 00:48:00.239
I did want to give law enforcement accurate information. I

821
00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:06.480
told a lie about being down there, and I got

822
00:48:06.519 --> 00:48:10.280
myself wedd to that. But I wanted to give them

823
00:48:10.320 --> 00:48:14.559
as much I knew that I hadn't done this, and

824
00:48:15.400 --> 00:48:18.599
I wanted to give them as much accurate information as

825
00:48:18.639 --> 00:48:22.440
I could. But the reason I went to Blanca is

826
00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:25.800
specifically because David Owen's talking to me.

827
00:48:25.719 --> 00:48:27.079
On allis eleven.

828
00:48:36.119 --> 00:48:38.159
And see that you're under way about nine forty two,

829
00:48:38.360 --> 00:48:45.559
heading back nine nine forty three.

830
00:48:46.119 --> 00:48:46.400
I do.

831
00:49:21.840 --> 00:49:24.920
Turn on Mozelle about ten o one.

832
00:49:27.239 --> 00:49:35.760
Turned into Moselle at ten oh one. Yeah, sorry, it

833
00:49:35.760 --> 00:49:37.400
looks to me like I turned into Mozelle.

834
00:49:37.760 --> 00:49:40.920
At ten o'clock, ten o'clock on the dive. Sorry, yes, sir,

835
00:49:48.480 --> 00:49:53.440
at the house at ten oh five, Yes, sir.

836
00:49:57.639 --> 00:50:00.639
Remember that's when you went back to the kennels after

837
00:50:00.639 --> 00:50:02.119
you came back from al Meata. Correct.

838
00:50:05.480 --> 00:50:07.400
I went to the kennels after I went to the

839
00:50:07.400 --> 00:50:13.159
house at I went from Almeta's to the house to

840
00:50:13.199 --> 00:50:14.599
the kennels.

841
00:50:16.320 --> 00:50:20.199
And we got to the scene. You got out of

842
00:50:20.239 --> 00:50:23.880
the car, according to what you told law enforcement repeatedly,

843
00:50:25.039 --> 00:50:34.239
and went and checked the bodies, correct, before you called

844
00:50:34.320 --> 00:50:35.840
nine one one. Is that correct?

845
00:50:37.360 --> 00:50:38.679
No, serio, that's not correct.

846
00:50:38.880 --> 00:50:41.159
You don't you're saying you didn't say that to law enforcement.

847
00:50:41.280 --> 00:50:43.719
I don't know what I said law enforcements for, but

848
00:50:43.760 --> 00:50:49.920
I can tell you this. I pulled up and I

849
00:50:49.960 --> 00:50:58.000
saw Paul. I jumped out of that car, and I

850
00:50:58.039 --> 00:51:00.639
went back to my car and a car nine one

851
00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:04.679
one as quickly as I could. That point in time

852
00:51:05.079 --> 00:51:07.760
when I got on the phone, then is when I

853
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:14.360
went to them and did the things that I did.

854
00:51:18.159 --> 00:51:20.760
So what you're saying is not accurate.

855
00:51:21.480 --> 00:51:23.960
You're saying that you didn't say, very specifically the law

856
00:51:24.039 --> 00:51:29.480
enforcement that you went to them prior to calling nine

857
00:51:29.519 --> 00:51:35.559
one one, When after you got out of the car.

858
00:51:36.199 --> 00:51:38.639
You told law enforcement repeatedly that you went over and

859
00:51:38.719 --> 00:51:40.679
checked the bodies before you called nine one one.

860
00:51:42.039 --> 00:51:43.159
No, I don't.

861
00:51:44.960 --> 00:51:47.679
If I did say that, I don't believe that's accurate.

862
00:51:48.679 --> 00:51:51.320
Did I check Maggie and Paul before I called nine

863
00:51:51.360 --> 00:51:51.760
one one?

864
00:51:52.159 --> 00:51:52.559
Correct?

865
00:51:52.880 --> 00:51:55.519
No, sir, that's not that's not I don't that's not accurate.

866
00:51:56.360 --> 00:51:57.840
At least, that's not what I remember.

867
00:51:58.119 --> 00:51:59.880
That's not what you remember saying, or that's not what

868
00:52:00.039 --> 00:52:01.199
she's say now happens.

869
00:52:01.760 --> 00:52:06.519
No, that's not what that's not what I believe happened.

870
00:52:07.119 --> 00:52:09.000
Okay, but you don't deny that's what you said.

871
00:52:11.719 --> 00:52:15.199
Did I said? Did I check Maggie and Paul before

872
00:52:15.239 --> 00:52:16.159
I called down one one?

873
00:52:16.360 --> 00:52:16.480
Right?

874
00:52:18.159 --> 00:52:19.599
I don't believe that's what I said.

875
00:52:32.440 --> 00:52:35.039
Now, I know I checked them, but I don't believe

876
00:52:35.079 --> 00:52:54.400
I checked them before I called now one one.

877
00:52:47.400 --> 00:52:56.320
Because I I can pretty well remember vividly when I

878
00:52:56.440 --> 00:53:23.920
checked Paul Paul. I was already on the phone with none.

879
00:52:59.679 --> 00:53:26.840
On looking at this data. Yeah, to show the vehicle

880
00:53:27.320 --> 00:53:32.239
parking at ten oh five and fifty five seconds, Yes, sir,

881
00:53:35.519 --> 00:53:39.599
ten oh five fifty seven. The suburban arrives at the

882
00:53:39.639 --> 00:53:40.760
Kennels you agree with that.

883
00:53:45.320 --> 00:53:48.840
I'm sorry, said anagains word at ten oh.

884
00:53:48.719 --> 00:54:03.440
Five fifty seven. It shows the suburban arriving at the kennels. Okay, okay,

885
00:54:04.639 --> 00:54:08.599
the nine won one call? Was that ten oh six fourteen?

886
00:54:09.639 --> 00:54:10.000
Okay?

887
00:54:10.320 --> 00:54:13.519
Just about twenty seconds later? You agree with that?

888
00:54:17.239 --> 00:54:19.800
I think that sounds right. Yes, sir, it may not

889
00:54:19.880 --> 00:54:26.440
make sense, but that goes back to what I'm saying

890
00:54:26.599 --> 00:54:42.239
is I pulled up, I saw, I saw them, and

891
00:54:42.320 --> 00:54:48.280
I know I jumped out of my car, but I

892
00:54:48.360 --> 00:54:55.400
believe that before I checked them. In fact, I'm almost certain,

893
00:54:56.559 --> 00:55:01.480
and then I went back and I got my That's

894
00:55:01.480 --> 00:55:03.760
when I went and got my phone and I called

895
00:55:03.800 --> 00:55:09.440
down one one, and then after I called now one

896
00:55:09.480 --> 00:55:12.119
one they I mean there was a little while where

897
00:55:12.119 --> 00:55:16.760
there wasn't. I don't think there was anything going on,

898
00:55:18.599 --> 00:55:21.719
and I believe that that is the time period that

899
00:55:21.800 --> 00:55:34.000
I went and checked on them.

900
00:55:34.039 --> 00:55:35.960
I don't want to believe at this point that what

901
00:55:36.000 --> 00:55:38.159
you're saying here today, now that we have this data,

902
00:55:38.199 --> 00:55:40.400
that's not exactly how you expressed it the law enforcement

903
00:55:40.559 --> 00:55:41.519
in your prior statements.

904
00:55:41.599 --> 00:55:44.559
Is that correct, No, sir, I disagree with that. So

905
00:55:44.599 --> 00:55:47.800
I totally disagree with that mister waters, will you point

906
00:55:47.840 --> 00:55:48.800
to what you're talking about?

907
00:56:02.440 --> 00:56:10.119
All right, sir, you got the hounds? Like what seven?

908
00:56:21.440 --> 00:56:21.559
Right?

909
00:56:21.599 --> 00:56:22.119
Miss word up?

910
00:56:22.840 --> 00:56:26.960
Just take your full name for me, Richard Alexander.

911
00:56:32.000 --> 00:56:34.039
I mean think of the last thing so you get correct.

912
00:56:34.719 --> 00:56:38.440
Yea you are d A U g H.

913
00:56:40.280 --> 00:56:46.320

May seven, nineteen sixty eight.

916
00:56:53.480 --> 00:56:59.360
To sold for eight zero three nine four two one

917
00:56:59.400 --> 00:57:00.280

00:57:05.039 --> 00:57:07.760
Yeah, and so what would your name?

919

Yeah?

920
00:57:11.320 --> 00:57:22.239
Okay, all right, as a state of from David Owen

921
00:57:23.000 --> 00:57:25.840
being a floor on this Caulk County, I'm sliff.

922
00:57:28.840 --> 00:57:30.519
I have to do this. I understand.

923
00:57:30.639 --> 00:57:31.719
I totally understand.

924
00:57:31.840 --> 00:57:37.119
So you don't. You don't have any problem with it, So.

925
00:57:40.079 --> 00:57:41.679
Just start the top. Take your time.

926
00:57:43.480 --> 00:57:46.360
Like when I came back here, I mean I pulled

927
00:57:46.440 --> 00:57:49.000
up and I could see him, and you know, I

928
00:57:49.039 --> 00:57:50.039
knew something was bad.

929
00:57:50.400 --> 00:57:51.039
I ran out.

930
00:57:51.719 --> 00:57:56.159
I knew it was really bad, and yeah, little boy

931
00:57:56.400 --> 00:58:00.320
over there, I could see it was h.

932
00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:12.239
H h h.

933
00:58:19.079 --> 00:58:24.119
I could see his brain m.

934
00:58:27.800 --> 00:58:30.920
H m hmmm.

935
00:58:34.440 --> 00:58:39.000
And I ran over to Maggie. Actually, I think I

936
00:58:39.119 --> 00:58:41.199
tried to turn Paul over first.

937
00:58:44.039 --> 00:58:47.320
Uh, you know, I tried to turn him over, and

938
00:58:48.119 --> 00:58:49.440
I don't know I figured.

939
00:58:49.159 --> 00:58:49.679
It out.

940
00:58:51.960 --> 00:58:53.920
Him cell phone popped out of his pocket.

941
00:58:54.039 --> 00:58:58.719
I started to try to do something with it, thinking maybe,

942
00:58:58.760 --> 00:59:02.880
but then I put it back down really quickly. Then

943
00:59:02.880 --> 00:59:05.559
I went to my wife, and I.

944
00:59:07.360 --> 00:59:16.039
Mean I could see did you touch maybe?

945
00:59:16.079 --> 00:59:16.719
And off I did.

946
00:59:17.119 --> 00:59:19.360
I touched some boat I tried to take.

947
00:59:19.960 --> 00:59:21.920
I mean, I tried to do it as will limited

948
00:59:22.000 --> 00:59:23.320
as possible, but I.

949
00:59:23.800 --> 00:59:30.239
Tried to take their thoughts on both of them.

950
00:59:30.400 --> 00:59:33.719
And you know, I called nine one one.

951
00:59:35.239 --> 00:59:40.320
Pretty much right away, and she was very good.

952
00:59:47.039 --> 00:59:49.679
I talked to her. I told her I was going

953
00:59:49.760 --> 00:59:51.760
to get off the phone to call some family.

954
00:59:53.599 --> 01:00:03.159
I did that, and the family members did you call him?

955
01:00:03.519 --> 01:00:04.400
My brother Ry?

956
01:00:05.760 --> 01:00:13.239
And I called my brother John, and I tried to

957
01:00:13.280 --> 01:00:16.400
call the little boy. Real good trends right around the

958
01:00:16.400 --> 01:00:17.280
corner from here, but.

959
01:00:17.280 --> 01:00:25.679
I think you get him.

960
01:00:25.679 --> 01:00:28.840
That person who's in name I was rugged around the corner.

961
01:00:29.000 --> 01:00:30.079
Is that who you're talking about?

962
01:00:30.719 --> 01:00:31.360
That's correct.

963
01:00:33.119 --> 01:00:38.559
But going back to your question, I mean, that's that's

964
01:00:38.599 --> 01:00:41.639
the way I remember it. What I said right there,

965
01:00:42.199 --> 01:00:46.760
And you know you're over your question about did I

966
01:00:46.800 --> 01:00:52.280
do these things before I called now one one? That's

967
01:00:52.320 --> 01:00:55.079
not what I said then, And that's not what I

968
01:00:55.119 --> 01:00:55.760
remember now.

969
01:00:56.679 --> 01:00:58.559
So you're saying now that you want out.

970
01:01:00.119 --> 01:01:00.280
Act.

971
01:01:00.360 --> 01:01:02.280
You came back, got your phone, and that's when you

972
01:01:02.280 --> 01:01:03.039
called nine one one.

973
01:01:03.119 --> 01:01:05.519
I'm not saying that now, mister, I am saying that now,

974
01:01:05.559 --> 01:01:07.480
But to me, that's what I said then.

975
01:01:07.639 --> 01:01:11.239
I mean I told her I called nine one one

976
01:01:11.320 --> 01:01:11.800
right away.

977
01:01:11.920 --> 01:01:13.719
I didn't have there was no time to do to

978
01:01:13.840 --> 01:01:18.920
things that I'm talking about doing in the time between

979
01:01:19.960 --> 01:01:21.159
getting there and.

980
01:01:24.320 --> 01:01:25.360
Calling nine one one.

981
01:01:25.440 --> 01:01:28.119
When you talked about calling Rogan and he said that

982
01:01:28.159 --> 01:01:29.400
he lives right around the corner.

983
01:01:29.519 --> 01:01:31.199
Correct, that's correct.

984
01:01:32.679 --> 01:01:35.920
But Rugan wasn't staying there at the time. That's the

985
01:01:35.960 --> 01:01:37.920
whole reason that Cash was at your kennel, right.

986
01:01:38.000 --> 01:01:42.480
You knew that, well, Rogan was staying in Beaufort a lot,

987
01:01:42.559 --> 01:01:43.880
but he was home a lot too.

988
01:01:43.960 --> 01:01:46.440
I didn't. I didn't know where Rogan was on a daily.

989
01:01:46.199 --> 01:01:52.039
Basis about keeping his dog Cash of the kennels when

990
01:01:52.039 --> 01:01:54.440
he was staying with his girlfriend and working down in Beaufort.

991
01:01:54.960 --> 01:01:57.320
Yes, he had asked me that, but I mean that

992
01:01:57.360 --> 01:02:03.360
had been some time before. I didn't know you making

993
01:02:03.400 --> 01:02:04.920
a big deal about this, mister Waters.

994
01:02:04.960 --> 01:02:09.079
But that particular night I didn't have a clue where

995
01:02:09.159 --> 01:02:12.519
Rogan was staying or not staying. I was trying to

996
01:02:12.559 --> 01:02:17.440
find somebody to come out there with me. I'd called Randy,

997
01:02:17.760 --> 01:02:18.880
I'd called John.

998
01:02:21.000 --> 01:02:24.920
And Rogan was the next best alternative. And Rogan is

999
01:02:25.000 --> 01:02:29.079
so close. I mean, Rogan, of all these kids that

1000
01:02:29.119 --> 01:02:34.880
you've heard Rogan giftson Roro is like a Rogan you

1001
01:02:35.000 --> 01:02:38.000
prefer when I call him. Rogan is truly like a

1002
01:02:38.079 --> 01:02:41.320
son to Maggie and I. And he was such a

1003
01:02:41.360 --> 01:02:43.679
good friend to Buster, and he was such a good

1004
01:02:43.679 --> 01:02:46.920
friend of Paul. And you've been through everything I.

1005
01:02:46.880 --> 01:02:50.280
Have, you'll see that two weeks or three weeks prior

1006
01:02:50.400 --> 01:02:54.519
to this, I ran out of gas when Bus and

1007
01:02:54.519 --> 01:02:58.840
Paul Paul weren't home, and Rogan's the person that I

1008
01:02:58.880 --> 01:02:59.960
called to bring me gas.

1009
01:03:00.519 --> 01:03:07.079
Okay, nobody suspeating in any of the rugging would have

1010
01:03:07.079 --> 01:03:07.480
helped you.

1011
01:03:09.199 --> 01:03:15.440
Keep playing around well when you walked up blood, any

1012
01:03:15.760 --> 01:03:20.679
other anything else? I mean there was somebody things, yes, sir,

1013
01:03:20.960 --> 01:03:23.519
I mean, like any other evidence of the lease of

1014
01:03:23.599 --> 01:03:25.000
the phone fell out of pocket.

1015
01:03:25.599 --> 01:03:27.960
But did you see anything else that.

1016
01:03:28.079 --> 01:03:31.719
Didn't belong or shouldn't belong or that was a part

1017
01:03:31.760 --> 01:03:32.440
of fall.

1018
01:03:34.320 --> 01:03:34.840
No, shirt.

1019
01:03:34.960 --> 01:03:36.480
Not no, not.

1020
01:03:39.440 --> 01:03:41.199
No shirt about Maggie.

1021
01:03:41.800 --> 01:03:42.320
No shirt.

1022
01:03:42.719 --> 01:03:48.480
You can't see anything of room. Now, what made you

1023
01:03:48.480 --> 01:03:49.320
come out here tonight?

1024
01:03:50.760 --> 01:03:54.599
I went to my mom's late stage Alsheimer's station. My

1025
01:03:54.719 --> 01:03:55.960
dad's in the hospital.

1026
01:03:57.800 --> 01:04:01.039
My mom gets anxious when she does. I went to

1027
01:04:01.119 --> 01:04:05.719
check on them and Maggie. Maggie's a dog lover, she

1028
01:04:05.920 --> 01:04:09.280
fools with the dogs, and I knew she'd gone to

1029
01:04:09.360 --> 01:04:09.800
the count.

1030
01:04:10.400 --> 01:04:11.360
I was at the house.

1031
01:04:19.599 --> 01:04:22.639
You just have to find that in the wake of this,

1032
01:04:23.679 --> 01:04:26.599
you didn't know what you said the law enforcement. That

1033
01:04:26.679 --> 01:04:27.519
was what you just said.

1034
01:04:29.440 --> 01:04:32.199
No, I mean, I know I know a lot of

1035
01:04:32.199 --> 01:04:34.400
what I said to law enforcement. But there's a lot

1036
01:04:34.440 --> 01:04:38.519
of things in looking back at this.

1037
01:04:38.639 --> 01:04:43.440
Video, for one, did I want one call? For one?

1038
01:04:43.719 --> 01:04:46.760
I mean, there's a lot of things that I didn't remember.

1039
01:04:47.440 --> 01:04:55.199
Okay, But right then and there, just not long into

1040
01:04:55.239 --> 01:05:04.079
this interview, made a conscious decision to why right there

1041
01:05:04.599 --> 01:05:08.599
play that again. You said I was at the house.

1042
01:05:14.119 --> 01:05:16.079
And I knew she'd gone to the camp.

1043
01:05:16.760 --> 01:05:17.679
I was at the house.

1044
01:05:18.920 --> 01:05:19.599
I left that out.

1045
01:05:20.880 --> 01:05:23.480
We play going to back it up?

1046
01:05:23.519 --> 01:05:23.760
Smore?

1047
01:05:24.039 --> 01:05:25.840
Well, yeah, we can keep listening to it.

1048
01:05:26.239 --> 01:05:32.440
Anything from what made you come out here at night?

1049
01:05:33.840 --> 01:05:37.440
I went to my mom's late stage all sammuspation.

1050
01:05:37.679 --> 01:05:42.840
My dad's in the hospital. My mom gets anxious when

1051
01:05:42.880 --> 01:05:47.000
she does. I went to check on them and Maggie.

1052
01:05:47.159 --> 01:05:48.320
Maggie is a dog lover.

1053
01:05:48.719 --> 01:05:52.280
She fools with the dogs, and I knew she'd gone

1054
01:05:52.320 --> 01:05:52.880
to the camp.

1055
01:05:53.519 --> 01:05:54.480
I was at the house.

1056
01:05:57.159 --> 01:05:59.119
You want to hear it again, No, sir, but I

1057
01:05:59.159 --> 01:06:01.679
don't you made a ancious decision to lie right there,

1058
01:06:01.760 --> 01:06:03.880
this early into an interview, sitting in the front seat.

1059
01:06:03.880 --> 01:06:04.280
Correct.

1060
01:06:04.800 --> 01:06:05.519
I don't believe.

1061
01:06:05.559 --> 01:06:08.039
So you didn't make a conscious decision to lie.

1062
01:06:08.199 --> 01:06:11.320
I don't believe that. I don't believe that was lying

1063
01:06:11.400 --> 01:06:12.079
at that point.

1064
01:06:12.800 --> 01:06:13.800
Okay, tell me why not?

1065
01:06:16.920 --> 01:06:19.079
Because Maggie had gone to the kennels and I was

1066
01:06:19.119 --> 01:06:19.679
at the house.

1067
01:06:20.000 --> 01:06:23.119
Okay, so you think you were being That was not

1068
01:06:23.159 --> 01:06:24.079
a lie at that point.

1069
01:06:24.440 --> 01:06:26.199
I don't believe.

1070
01:06:26.199 --> 01:06:28.519
So at what point did you decide to lie?

1071
01:06:28.719 --> 01:06:30.639
I'm not sure, but it was in that It was

1072
01:06:30.679 --> 01:06:32.800
in this interview. I believe that it was.

1073
01:06:32.880 --> 01:06:35.519
Okay, what's this interview where you're sitting in the front seat. Correct?

1074
01:06:35.800 --> 01:06:39.039
It is. You're not in custody, correct, I'm not in custody.

1075
01:06:39.239 --> 01:06:44.480
They're giving you water, letting me cheat Tobacca treating you politely.

1076
01:06:44.679 --> 01:06:46.599
Correct, they were treating me very politely.

1077
01:06:47.119 --> 01:06:49.360
What was it that they click when so you said

1078
01:06:49.559 --> 01:06:51.840
this interview that it collecked that that I'm a lie

1079
01:06:51.960 --> 01:06:53.639
about the most important fact that I know.

1080
01:06:54.239 --> 01:06:57.679
I'm not sure exactly when in it that I lied

1081
01:06:58.079 --> 01:06:59.480
decided to lie.

1082
01:06:59.159 --> 01:07:02.599
But I believe it was during this interview.

1083
01:07:03.639 --> 01:07:07.480
I believe all those things that I talked about, you know,

1084
01:07:08.679 --> 01:07:10.440
those things that have gone on, the things that.

1085
01:07:10.360 --> 01:07:11.360
People have said to me.

1086
01:07:13.320 --> 01:07:18.679
About don't talk to anybody without a lawyer. Partners all

1087
01:07:18.760 --> 01:07:20.719
told me that, or if a lot of my partners

1088
01:07:20.719 --> 01:07:25.280
told me that. My dear friend, Chief Alexander was one

1089
01:07:25.320 --> 01:07:27.360
who said that I overheard.

1090
01:07:27.920 --> 01:07:30.199
I believe it was Sheriff Hill. I'm not positive I

1091
01:07:30.239 --> 01:07:33.079
overheard him tell I believe Mark Baul or Gray Holmes

1092
01:07:33.159 --> 01:07:35.559
don't let him talk to anybody without a lawyer.

1093
01:07:35.880 --> 01:07:43.840
And what I believe is that based on my distrust

1094
01:07:43.880 --> 01:07:47.079
of sled and getting in that interview. And I'm not

1095
01:07:47.119 --> 01:07:49.119
positive about this, but I believe when he asked me,

1096
01:07:49.920 --> 01:07:53.199
you know, about my relationship with my wife and my son,

1097
01:07:54.000 --> 01:07:55.880
I believe that's when I decided to lie.

1098
01:07:56.239 --> 01:07:59.000
But I'm not the GSR too because that's what you

1099
01:07:59.079 --> 01:08:00.400
touched about to yesterday.

1100
01:08:00.679 --> 01:08:01.880
That certainly contributed.

1101
01:08:02.280 --> 01:08:05.079
And you're dope paranoia too, you said that as well.

1102
01:08:05.119 --> 01:08:12.039
Correct, Well, those things are what triggered the paranoia that started.

1103
01:08:13.239 --> 01:08:15.079
As my addiction evolved.

1104
01:08:15.679 --> 01:08:19.000
Right, So, you're.

1105
01:08:21.840 --> 01:08:24.960
An experienced lawyer and you've been a prosecutor, and you

1106
01:08:25.000 --> 01:08:27.119
took the advice of your law partners that you should

1107
01:08:27.119 --> 01:08:30.079
have a lawyer there as you read that as oh,

1108
01:08:30.119 --> 01:08:31.640
I should lie.

1109
01:08:31.920 --> 01:08:34.800
No, that's that's not That's not what that means, is it,

1110
01:08:34.880 --> 01:08:35.479
miss Vernock.

1111
01:08:36.199 --> 01:08:40.000
That's not You're not that's not an accurate statement what

1112
01:08:40.119 --> 01:08:41.159
you just said, mister Order.

1113
01:08:42.760 --> 01:08:46.680
I just repeated what you just said. You said was

1114
01:08:46.720 --> 01:08:49.800
one of the factors was your law partners, and now

1115
01:08:49.800 --> 01:08:54.000
you're bloming. Sheriff Hill and Greg Alexander told you that

1116
01:08:54.319 --> 01:08:56.600
you needed a lawyer before you talk to the police,

1117
01:08:56.840 --> 01:08:59.319
and you took that somehow is meaning I need to

1118
01:08:59.359 --> 01:09:01.640
lie as a lawyer and a prosecutor.

1119
01:09:01.760 --> 01:09:03.239
No, that's what you said, mister Waters.

1120
01:09:03.239 --> 01:09:07.359
But I mischaracterizing it from your perspective, mister Murdock, because

1121
01:09:07.359 --> 01:09:10.039
I think that's then that what you've heard isn't not

1122
01:09:10.079 --> 01:09:10.640
what you just said.

1123
01:09:10.720 --> 01:09:12.960
Excuse me, No, sir, that's not what I said.

1124
01:09:13.279 --> 01:09:13.960
That's say it again.

1125
01:09:14.439 --> 01:09:16.640
I believe those guys were trying to help me. I

1126
01:09:16.680 --> 01:09:19.199
believe they cared about me. I believe they thought that

1127
01:09:19.319 --> 01:09:24.720
I was in a condition such that I shouldn't talk

1128
01:09:24.760 --> 01:09:25.479
to anybody.

1129
01:09:26.239 --> 01:09:31.520
I mean, I mean those guys had to prop me up,

1130
01:09:34.000 --> 01:09:36.119
help me get myself together, just to be able to

1131
01:09:36.119 --> 01:09:38.159
go talk to David Owens. I mean, they were trying

1132
01:09:38.199 --> 01:09:40.439
to help me. But before that, that was just.

1133
01:09:40.520 --> 01:09:45.560
One of the many things that I believe led to

1134
01:09:45.640 --> 01:09:52.279
that situation, sitting in there where those paranoid thoughts came

1135
01:09:52.319 --> 01:09:57.279
to me, them talking about not talking to anybody without

1136
01:09:57.319 --> 01:10:04.000
a lawyer, Brian Varona Doe checking my hands, the fact

1137
01:10:04.000 --> 01:10:07.760
that I got a pocket full of pills in my pocket.

1138
01:10:08.199 --> 01:10:08.319
Uh.

1139
01:10:09.079 --> 01:10:17.520
I was the person who found Maggie and Paul, my

1140
01:10:17.720 --> 01:10:25.079
distrust for Sled. All of those factors combined and made

1141
01:10:25.159 --> 01:10:27.680
me decide to lie. I also know him asking me

1142
01:10:27.840 --> 01:10:35.800
about Maggie and Paul Paul contributed to that paranoia. All

1143
01:10:35.840 --> 01:10:38.079
I'm saying is, I'm not disputing that I lied. I'm

1144
01:10:38.119 --> 01:10:42.560
just saying, at this point, you're saying I made a

1145
01:10:42.600 --> 01:10:46.560
conscious decision to lie here and I'm saying, I don't

1146
01:10:46.600 --> 01:10:48.920
think I made a conscious decision right there.

1147
01:10:50.720 --> 01:10:51.319
I believe so.

1148
01:10:51.600 --> 01:10:55.199
Had you already had your GSR down at this point, yes, sir, okay,

1149
01:10:55.680 --> 01:10:57.720
I had, and you already talked to your law partners

1150
01:10:57.720 --> 01:11:01.199
and talked to and heard sherif Phil Now you're I'm

1151
01:11:01.239 --> 01:11:04.840
not even know Sheph Alexander now as well for your lives.

1152
01:11:05.039 --> 01:11:06.880
No, mister Waters, I'm just out of that one.

1153
01:11:06.880 --> 01:11:08.640
You didn't say that yesterday, and you just out of

1154
01:11:08.720 --> 01:11:09.039
that one.

1155
01:11:09.560 --> 01:11:15.439
Please be given an opportunity answer the question objection.

1156
01:11:19.680 --> 01:11:21.199
Confess her last answer.

1157
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:28.159
Mister Waters, I'm not blaming anybody. I accept full responsibility

1158
01:11:28.279 --> 01:11:31.560
for what I did. What I'm saying is what I

1159
01:11:31.600 --> 01:11:37.960
believe contributed to me doing that and the reason why

1160
01:11:38.000 --> 01:11:40.079
I did that. I think those folks were trying to

1161
01:11:40.119 --> 01:11:46.840
help me, So I don't blame them.

1162
01:11:46.880 --> 01:11:48.319
I think they were worried about me.

1163
01:11:49.800 --> 01:11:51.720
I don't dispute that. But you're saying you took that

1164
01:11:51.840 --> 01:11:53.479
advice as I need to lie.

1165
01:11:53.920 --> 01:11:57.479
Now, what you're doing is you're isolating one single.

1166
01:11:57.119 --> 01:11:59.720
Thing, isolating anything. I've mentioned all the factors. You've added

1167
01:11:59.720 --> 01:12:01.319
some new ones, but I mentioned all the factors that

1168
01:12:01.359 --> 01:12:03.560
you're blaming a lie.

1169
01:12:03.720 --> 01:12:04.560
That's not what you did.

1170
01:12:04.560 --> 01:12:07.800
What you asked me is you said, I took my

1171
01:12:07.880 --> 01:12:11.159
partners telling me not to talk to somebody without a

1172
01:12:11.239 --> 01:12:15.520
lawyer as a reason to lie. And that's an inaccurate statement.

1173
01:12:15.840 --> 01:12:20.000
That was one of the factors that went into a

1174
01:12:20.079 --> 01:12:23.600
series of hang on, mister orders, a series of events,

1175
01:12:24.039 --> 01:12:28.399
all right, that caused me to have.

1176
01:12:29.760 --> 01:12:34.079
Paranoid thinking. All right, and then I lied.

1177
01:12:36.199 --> 01:12:38.520
All right, But at some point it happened during this

1178
01:12:38.680 --> 01:12:41.439
interview that you you crossed over. You're saying that you

1179
01:12:41.520 --> 01:12:45.000
came into this interview intending to be fully disclosing to everything,

1180
01:12:45.199 --> 01:12:47.880
and something happened in this interview that sent you over

1181
01:12:47.920 --> 01:12:49.880
the edge, and you said, hey, let me lie about

1182
01:12:49.920 --> 01:12:52.279
the last time I saw my wife and child A

1183
01:12:52.319 --> 01:12:53.760
lot I supposed to be great to me.

1184
01:12:55.560 --> 01:12:59.399
I certainly didn't go into that interview, I believe, intending

1185
01:12:59.439 --> 01:13:02.279
to loss for words. I wasn't capable at that point

1186
01:13:02.319 --> 01:13:08.039
in time of planning anything or thinking through anything.

1187
01:13:08.239 --> 01:13:10.239
So somehow during this interview, all of a sudden, those

1188
01:13:10.279 --> 01:13:12.039
senses came to you to plan and do that.

1189
01:13:16.199 --> 01:13:21.600
When I got to thinking in that paranoid way that normally,

1190
01:13:22.560 --> 01:13:26.560
as I said, I mean I could take a deep

1191
01:13:26.600 --> 01:13:27.920
breath and make it go away.

1192
01:13:28.560 --> 01:13:31.079
I never had a situation.

1193
01:13:30.680 --> 01:13:35.000
Where it lasted more than a matter of seconds. That night,

1194
01:13:37.840 --> 01:13:44.560
after all those things had happened, it didn't go away

1195
01:13:45.279 --> 01:13:51.279
in a matter of seconds, and I decided to lie.

1196
01:13:51.600 --> 01:13:54.800
Now, are y'all like me at this point? Can you

1197
01:13:54.800 --> 01:13:58.319
hear it in his voice? Alec is getting more and

1198
01:13:58.479 --> 01:14:04.920
more nervous on that stand now, to be sure, he's

1199
01:14:05.199 --> 01:14:08.239
practiced what he is going to say regarding why he

1200
01:14:08.439 --> 01:14:12.800
lied a thousand times in his head. But the thing

1201
01:14:12.840 --> 01:14:17.039
he didn't prepare for, could not prepare for, was the

1202
01:14:17.159 --> 01:14:21.880
hammering that Waters was laying down on him. He was

1203
01:14:21.920 --> 01:14:30.079
simply getting out litigated and outsmarted by Waters. Awesome lawyer

1204
01:14:30.199 --> 01:14:33.119
work right there, So we'll continue.

1205
01:14:33.279 --> 01:14:36.000
Those are the clothes that you ultimately gave to Dave Owen?

1206
01:14:36.119 --> 01:14:36.560
Is that right?

1207
01:14:37.960 --> 01:14:40.079
Those are the clothes I gave to David Owens.

1208
01:14:40.760 --> 01:14:43.560
At what point did you get you be able to

1209
01:14:43.640 --> 01:14:45.960
chuck the pills you say? Or in your pocket? When

1210
01:14:46.000 --> 01:14:46.439
did you do that?

1211
01:14:47.239 --> 01:14:49.079
When I was in my bedroom and you're.

1212
01:14:49.000 --> 01:14:50.880
In the bedroom. Yes, sir, where's Puddom?

1213
01:14:52.000 --> 01:14:53.960
I'm not sure where I put him? But ultimately they

1214
01:14:53.960 --> 01:14:55.279
would have gone in my suitcase.

1215
01:14:56.479 --> 01:14:58.039
So that's when you did it. Do you have a

1216
01:14:58.079 --> 01:14:59.239
specific recollection of that.

1217
01:14:59.439 --> 01:15:01.960
No, I don't. I just knowed I took them out

1218
01:15:01.960 --> 01:15:02.520
of my pocket.

1219
01:15:02.720 --> 01:15:05.359
If we watched this whole video, you think you could.

1220
01:15:05.399 --> 01:15:06.680
If we just watch the whole thing, you think you

1221
01:15:06.680 --> 01:15:09.800
can say, Okay, that's the moment where my senses came

1222
01:15:09.840 --> 01:15:11.439
to me and I decided I was going to tell

1223
01:15:11.479 --> 01:15:13.439
this major lie.

1224
01:15:14.319 --> 01:15:17.399
I don't know did it happened like that, but I

1225
01:15:17.479 --> 01:15:19.399
mean I may be able to tell you some things

1226
01:15:19.439 --> 01:15:20.760
that contributed to it.

1227
01:15:21.000 --> 01:15:22.920
We watched the whole thing, We've heard that.

1228
01:15:25.680 --> 01:15:32.000
I just want to be clearer though, at least on

1229
01:15:32.079 --> 01:15:37.399
this one. At some point during this interview, when you

1230
01:15:37.439 --> 01:15:44.760
were able to plan your lie about this event and

1231
01:15:44.840 --> 01:15:48.720
you made that decision, But it wasn't what we just played.

1232
01:15:48.720 --> 01:15:50.520
There wasn't yet. There was some point after that.

1233
01:15:52.119 --> 01:15:53.560
I don't think that's a lie. Right.

1234
01:15:53.600 --> 01:15:56.720
There is the reason why I don't think that has

1235
01:15:56.720 --> 01:15:59.359
occurred before this, because what I'm saying there.

1236
01:16:01.159 --> 01:16:04.880
I believe to be truthful. And I know this.

1237
01:16:05.239 --> 01:16:09.439
I know for a fact that when David Owens asked

1238
01:16:09.479 --> 01:16:12.119
me about my relationship with my wife and my child,

1239
01:16:12.239 --> 01:16:15.119
I know that that played a role in that. And

1240
01:16:15.199 --> 01:16:19.920
I believe that, and I may be wrong, but I

1241
01:16:19.960 --> 01:16:21.640
believe that this was before that.

1242
01:16:22.119 --> 01:16:24.239
You ever heard the expression not telling the whole truth

1243
01:16:24.359 --> 01:16:25.359
is the same as telling a lie.

1244
01:16:25.560 --> 01:16:26.119
Sure I have.

1245
01:16:29.159 --> 01:16:33.600
That's something you understood as a lawyer and a prosecutor.

1246
01:16:35.079 --> 01:16:39.760
Yes, all right, just work, Just take your full day

1247
01:16:39.760 --> 01:16:43.239
form please, Richard Alexander Murder.

1248
01:16:48.159 --> 01:16:49.479
And it's doing the last thing so.

1249
01:16:49.520 --> 01:16:54.560
That they correct am you are the A U G H.

1250
01:16:56.439 --> 01:17:02.680
And you do about Alec, yes, sir, and David Earth

1251
01:17:02.680 --> 01:17:03.399
will start up.

1252
01:17:04.880 --> 01:17:10.279
May twenty seven, nineteen sixty eight. We'll give some number

1253
01:17:10.279 --> 01:17:14.199
for you eight zero three nine four.

1254
01:17:14.079 --> 01:17:25.520
Two one two two seven and so what was your name? Yeah?

1255
01:17:25.840 --> 01:17:32.359
Then all right, as I stated, I'm David Owen and

1256
01:17:32.479 --> 01:17:34.439
the floor writing with cal County.

1257
01:17:34.439 --> 01:17:38.960
I'm a slid. I hate to have to do this.

1258
01:17:39.119 --> 01:17:39.720
I understand.

1259
01:17:39.880 --> 01:17:44.680
I totally understand. So you don't. You don't have any

1260
01:17:44.720 --> 01:17:45.720
problem with it.

1261
01:17:46.159 --> 01:17:56.760
So you hadn't decided to lie right there?

1262
01:17:57.760 --> 01:18:02.560
Right, I don't believe.

1263
01:18:02.600 --> 01:18:09.560
So you told David Owen that you understood that he

1264
01:18:09.600 --> 01:18:11.439
had to ask questions and you do what you need

1265
01:18:11.479 --> 01:18:12.039
to do, right.

1266
01:18:12.359 --> 01:18:15.880
It is what I told him talking about at what

1267
01:18:16.039 --> 01:18:18.960
point during that interview in the car with Dave Owen

1268
01:18:19.000 --> 01:18:24.079
that you decided to start lying about the murders of

1269
01:18:24.119 --> 01:18:24.840
your wife and son.

1270
01:18:25.920 --> 01:18:29.720
I'm gonna pick up this video real quick now, gonna

1271
01:18:29.720 --> 01:18:33.600
play the whole thing, but I'm gonna start from two

1272
01:18:33.600 --> 01:18:34.720
minutes and nine seconds.

1273
01:18:38.159 --> 01:18:39.800
Just start to talk. Take your child.

1274
01:18:41.520 --> 01:18:44.079
Like when I came back here, wet clean it up,

1275
01:18:44.119 --> 01:18:44.920
little love, And I.

1276
01:18:44.840 --> 01:18:47.560
Could see him, and you know, I knew.

1277
01:18:47.359 --> 01:18:50.159
Some one little bad. I ran out. I know it

1278
01:18:50.239 --> 01:18:57.000
was really bad, some little boy over there. I see it.

1279
01:18:56.840 --> 01:19:32.720
Was and I could see his brain. Yeah, and I

1280
01:19:32.800 --> 01:19:37.479
ran over the maggot. Actually, I think I tried to

1281
01:19:37.520 --> 01:19:44.239
turn Paul over first. Uh, you know, I tried to

1282
01:19:44.279 --> 01:19:47.520
turn him over, and I don't know I figured it out.

1283
01:19:50.000 --> 01:19:52.399
Hissel phone popped out of his pocket.

1284
01:19:52.079 --> 01:19:56.760
I started to try to do something with it, thinking maybe,

1285
01:19:56.840 --> 01:20:00.720
but then I put it back down really quickly times

1286
01:20:00.760 --> 01:20:03.600
and I went to my wife, and I.

1287
01:20:05.399 --> 01:20:14.159
Mean I could see, did you touch Megan?

1288
01:20:14.239 --> 01:20:14.359
All?

1289
01:20:14.520 --> 01:20:16.079
I did. I touched them both.

1290
01:20:16.640 --> 01:20:19.039
I tried to take I mean I tried to do

1291
01:20:19.079 --> 01:20:22.439
it as limited as possible, but I tried to take

1292
01:20:22.520 --> 01:20:31.920
their talks on both of them.

1293
01:20:28.479 --> 01:20:33.840
And you know, I called nine one one pretty much

1294
01:20:33.920 --> 01:20:35.479
right away, and.

1295
01:20:37.359 --> 01:20:38.359
She was very good.

1296
01:20:42.399 --> 01:20:45.840
Mh I talked to her.

1297
01:20:46.600 --> 01:20:48.359
I told her I was going to get off the

1298
01:20:48.359 --> 01:20:49.800
phone to call some family.

1299
01:20:51.640 --> 01:20:52.319
I did that.

1300
01:20:55.079 --> 01:21:01.680
And mm hmmm, Amester, did you call him? Call my

1301
01:21:01.720 --> 01:21:02.279
brother Ed?

1302
01:21:03.800 --> 01:21:11.279
And I called my brother John, and I tried to

1303
01:21:11.319 --> 01:21:14.439
call him little boy, real good friends right around the

1304
01:21:14.439 --> 01:21:23.000
corners from here, But I didn't get him.

1305
01:21:23.399 --> 01:21:27.960
What all was around Paul when he walked up blind?

1306
01:21:29.439 --> 01:21:35.399
Any any other anything else? I mean that it was somebody, Yes, sir, I.

1307
01:21:35.359 --> 01:21:37.960
Mean like any other evidence. I know you set the

1308
01:21:37.960 --> 01:21:40.279
store and fell out of the pocket, But did you

1309
01:21:40.359 --> 01:21:44.319
see anything else that didn't belong or shouldn't belong or

1310
01:21:45.159 --> 01:21:46.479
that wasn't part of all?

1311
01:21:48.640 --> 01:21:50.840
No, sir, not no, not.

1312
01:21:53.720 --> 01:21:53.800
No.

1313
01:21:53.960 --> 01:21:58.199
Sure How about Maddie, No, sir, you didn't see anything around?

1314
01:21:58.199 --> 01:21:58.319
Now?

1315
01:22:02.199 --> 01:22:03.600
What made you come out here to night?

1316
01:22:05.039 --> 01:22:08.680
I went to my mom's Lake Stage Alzheimer's station.

1317
01:22:08.880 --> 01:22:10.279
My dad's in the hospital.

1318
01:22:12.079 --> 01:22:15.319
My mom gets anxious when she does. I went to

1319
01:22:15.399 --> 01:22:19.560
check on them and Maggie. Maggie used the dog loved

1320
01:22:19.920 --> 01:22:23.479
she fools with the dogs, and I knew she'd gone

1321
01:22:23.520 --> 01:22:24.079
to the count.

1322
01:22:24.720 --> 01:22:25.640
I was at the house.

1323
01:22:26.720 --> 01:22:28.560
Just to be clear, you say you hadn't made the

1324
01:22:28.560 --> 01:22:30.880
conscious decision to start lying about your wife and sons

1325
01:22:30.960 --> 01:22:36.600
murder right there. Correct, I don't believe, So okay, let's

1326
01:22:36.600 --> 01:22:37.479
continue on, mister.

1327
01:22:37.960 --> 01:22:43.039
I can't. I can't tell you exactly when that decision occurred.

1328
01:22:43.880 --> 01:22:47.560
Yeah, you can't describe to the jury the moment you

1329
01:22:47.640 --> 01:22:50.520
decided to lie about your wife's son and your wife

1330
01:22:50.560 --> 01:22:51.279
and son's murder.

1331
01:22:54.159 --> 01:22:56.680
I can't tell you exactly when that moment occurred.

1332
01:22:58.760 --> 01:22:59.479
I left the house.

1333
01:22:59.520 --> 01:23:02.399
I went sud say earlier that when David O when

1334
01:23:02.479 --> 01:23:07.239
asked you about your relationships, that was a tricker point, right, Well,

1335
01:23:07.279 --> 01:23:07.680
that was.

1336
01:23:07.600 --> 01:23:09.079
Certainly one of the things that.

1337
01:23:10.720 --> 01:23:15.760
Contributed or made me paranoid. Now you know there were

1338
01:23:15.760 --> 01:23:21.880
already things that had gone on that that that occurred,

1339
01:23:22.520 --> 01:23:27.199
as I said, that put me in that mindset.

1340
01:23:27.800 --> 01:23:32.239
But exactly when I decided to lie by that, I

1341
01:23:32.279 --> 01:23:33.119
can't tell you.

1342
01:23:34.000 --> 01:23:37.800
So the things again, you talked about your your dope paranoia,

1343
01:23:38.800 --> 01:23:43.640
the fact they taken GSR, and you talked about the

1344
01:23:43.720 --> 01:23:47.880
advice of your law partners and Sheriff Hill and Greg Alexander,

1345
01:23:48.640 --> 01:23:52.039
and then you talked about your distrust of sled. Somehow

1346
01:23:52.039 --> 01:23:55.159
from this the circumstances and demeanor of this interview right here.

1347
01:23:55.479 --> 01:23:58.960
Correct, You know, my distrust from Slid didn't arise from

1348
01:23:59.279 --> 01:24:05.000
this interview. My distrust for Sled arose from a couple

1349
01:24:05.000 --> 01:24:08.239
of things, and it really several things.

1350
01:24:08.079 --> 01:24:15.720
It arose from the way they had been involved in.

1351
01:24:16.560 --> 01:24:22.800
SLED had been involved in the investigation into Paul's criminal charges,

1352
01:24:23.520 --> 01:24:28.600
and they had been involved in there was an issue

1353
01:24:28.880 --> 01:24:32.920
that had gone on with some rumors about Busher and Paul.

1354
01:24:33.000 --> 01:24:40.560
They had been involved in that where you know Busher

1355
01:24:40.680 --> 01:24:41.479
North Paul had.

1356
01:24:41.399 --> 01:24:46.039
Anything to do with what I'm talking about, and Sled

1357
01:24:46.079 --> 01:24:48.720
would never said, never said that, even though they told

1358
01:24:48.720 --> 01:24:51.760
the lawyer that they never say that. And there had

1359
01:24:51.800 --> 01:24:57.800
been another incident where SLED had charged Dreg Alexander, my

1360
01:24:57.800 --> 01:24:58.600
my friend.

1361
01:24:58.640 --> 01:25:00.640
In this case, they shim.

1362
01:25:02.479 --> 01:25:04.880
And in fact I thought the agent that was involved

1363
01:25:04.920 --> 01:25:08.880
in that was David Owen. But the charges against Greg

1364
01:25:08.960 --> 01:25:16.279
Alexander were so they were so wrong that my dad

1365
01:25:16.319 --> 01:25:19.199
and I made a conscious decision, even though he was

1366
01:25:19.239 --> 01:25:22.319
a career prosecutor, made a decision to go to the

1367
01:25:22.359 --> 01:25:28.960
courthouse and sit with Greg Alexander while his trial went

1368
01:25:29.000 --> 01:25:30.000
on because.

1369
01:25:31.880 --> 01:25:34.640
Ten years ago, right, it was a while back, you know,

1370
01:25:35.680 --> 01:25:37.319
you don't know if Dave Owen was a slide ten

1371
01:25:37.399 --> 01:25:38.039
years ago.

1372
01:25:38.359 --> 01:25:42.199
No, No, I checked on that, because that night the

1373
01:25:42.199 --> 01:25:46.000
officer who was involved in that case and bringing clearly

1374
01:25:46.119 --> 01:25:48.960
manufactured charges against Greg Alexander.

1375
01:25:49.920 --> 01:25:51.760
Before you sat down from this interview, you were asking

1376
01:25:51.800 --> 01:25:55.399
somebody about whether or not about Greg Alexander ten years

1377
01:25:55.399 --> 01:25:56.760
ago and the waken what had occurred.

1378
01:25:56.800 --> 01:25:58.079
Oh no, I didn't ask anybody.

1379
01:25:58.119 --> 01:26:00.279
Okay, So that wasn't what you were assion you were

1380
01:26:00.279 --> 01:26:01.000
sitting in this card.

1381
01:26:01.199 --> 01:26:02.239
No, I wasn't discussing that.

1382
01:26:02.279 --> 01:26:04.680
I'm miss telling you that I thought David Owen was

1383
01:26:04.720 --> 01:26:08.319
the same agent that was involved in that case. Now

1384
01:26:08.960 --> 01:26:11.119
I learned later because I checked on it.

1385
01:26:11.359 --> 01:26:13.760
I learned later that it was a different David sled

1386
01:26:13.840 --> 01:26:17.359
agent first named David, with a different last name.

1387
01:26:17.880 --> 01:26:20.399
I learned that later. I'm just saying that was all

1388
01:26:20.520 --> 01:26:22.119
part of that process.

1389
01:26:21.720 --> 01:26:22.760
Going on in my mind.

1390
01:26:22.840 --> 01:26:25.039
So you're saying that you're sitting here right now thinking

1391
01:26:25.079 --> 01:26:27.720
that this Dave Owen, in this circumstances and demeanor of

1392
01:26:27.720 --> 01:26:30.319
this interview, you're thinking that guy had been involved in

1393
01:26:30.359 --> 01:26:33.800
the prosecution or investigation of your friend ten years ago.

1394
01:26:34.079 --> 01:26:36.399
I did, Okay, So here's a new one. You just

1395
01:26:36.399 --> 01:26:36.920
mentioned us.

1396
01:26:36.960 --> 01:26:38.560
Correct, No, that's not a new one.

1397
01:26:39.319 --> 01:26:41.800
That's part of the circumstances are new. I mean, I'm

1398
01:26:42.000 --> 01:26:45.680
fairly specific, don't you think when I mean, the story

1399
01:26:45.760 --> 01:26:46.760
keeps evolving, keep going.

1400
01:26:47.159 --> 01:26:49.479
Now you asked me about this, mister Owen.

1401
01:26:49.520 --> 01:26:52.079
What I said is part of this whole I mean,

1402
01:26:52.760 --> 01:26:56.520
mister Waters, the whole part of this whole process involved

1403
01:26:57.079 --> 01:26:58.239
my distrust for Sled.

1404
01:26:58.720 --> 01:27:01.560
That was part of a big part of my distrust

1405
01:27:01.640 --> 01:27:02.399
for sledg.

1406
01:27:02.920 --> 01:27:04.640
You know, we can all see it on your face

1407
01:27:04.640 --> 01:27:05.600
in this interview, can't we.

1408
01:27:06.840 --> 01:27:07.520
I don't know.

1409
01:27:10.239 --> 01:27:11.840
But you said and when what you just said a

1410
01:27:11.840 --> 01:27:14.640
little bit ago, that wasn't the lie. That wasn't conscious

1411
01:27:14.680 --> 01:27:16.239
decision yet, so let's keep doing it.

1412
01:27:16.399 --> 01:27:18.520
No, I'm not saying that. I'm saying I don't believe

1413
01:27:18.560 --> 01:27:22.479
that it was. I don't know exactly when I made

1414
01:27:22.479 --> 01:27:25.079
the decision to lie about.

1415
01:27:24.800 --> 01:27:26.840
That, all right, all right, if you say it, let

1416
01:27:26.880 --> 01:27:28.399
me know. Okay, Cat for.

1417
01:27:32.479 --> 01:27:37.479
Just a little while, tried to call her, laugh, tested her,

1418
01:27:38.000 --> 01:27:38.800
no response.

1419
01:27:46.640 --> 01:27:50.279
When I got back to the house, the house was obviously.

1420
01:27:49.840 --> 01:27:52.319
Nobody was in there. So see if they're still up

1421
01:27:52.359 --> 01:27:56.720
fears fooling around, Paul's gonna be getting set up to

1422
01:27:56.840 --> 01:28:00.720
plant or sunflowers, seeds got sprayed and and he was

1423
01:28:01.239 --> 01:28:05.760
receiver and to do the plant the sunlight receipts. So

1424
01:28:06.399 --> 01:28:10.800
I came back up here and drove up and saw.

1425
01:28:21.960 --> 01:28:24.119
Had Maggie and Paul can argue on it or anything?

1426
01:28:25.800 --> 01:28:28.600
What was their relationship like? Wonderful, wonderful?

1427
01:28:29.359 --> 01:28:30.039
How about yours?

1428
01:28:30.119 --> 01:28:31.359
Maggie's wonderful?

1429
01:28:32.319 --> 01:28:34.960
I mean, I'm sure we had little things here and there,

1430
01:28:35.039 --> 01:28:37.640
but we had a wonderful, wonderful relationship.

1431
01:28:39.239 --> 01:28:41.279
Yours of Paul's relationship.

1432
01:28:41.359 --> 01:28:42.399
As good as it could be.

1433
01:28:45.760 --> 01:28:46.680
That was Paul.

1434
01:28:48.720 --> 01:28:49.800
Twenty two.

1435
01:28:50.680 --> 01:28:52.560
So that was the moment right there, with that line

1436
01:28:52.560 --> 01:28:56.720
of questioning, just ask some very general questions about your relationship.

1437
01:28:58.399 --> 01:29:00.359
You mentioned that before then you, mister Murray, is that

1438
01:29:00.479 --> 01:29:03.119
the moment right there? Is that the look on your

1439
01:29:03.119 --> 01:29:05.439
face when you decide to lie about an important fact

1440
01:29:05.479 --> 01:29:07.640
in your wife and son's murder.

1441
01:29:08.760 --> 01:29:11.279
I don't know, as I said, mister Waters, I don't

1442
01:29:11.319 --> 01:29:13.840
know the exact point that I made that decision.

1443
01:29:14.520 --> 01:29:19.560
Mentioned that very exchange is somehow triggering you to lie

1444
01:29:20.199 --> 01:29:22.439
about the last time you saw them a line.

1445
01:29:22.600 --> 01:29:26.159
Now, I'm not saying that that's what made me lie

1446
01:29:26.239 --> 01:29:31.960
I'm saying this whole set of circumstances caused me to

1447
01:29:32.000 --> 01:29:38.000
be in a state where I had paranoid thoughts. Okay

1448
01:29:39.560 --> 01:29:43.239
that normally, mister Waters, I could take a deep breath

1449
01:29:43.399 --> 01:29:47.800
and make go away in a second or two seconds

1450
01:29:48.560 --> 01:29:52.800
or three seconds at the most, and on this night,

1451
01:29:55.520 --> 01:30:03.319
I wasn't able to do that. But all of those

1452
01:30:03.640 --> 01:30:07.600
things that I mentioned I believe contributed to that.

1453
01:30:08.079 --> 01:30:10.560
Okay, any more you want to add now, so you

1454
01:30:10.680 --> 01:30:12.159
keep adding them.

1455
01:30:12.239 --> 01:30:13.920
I'm glad to answer any question you have.

1456
01:30:14.079 --> 01:30:16.479
Well, I mean I'm asking you. I mean, the factors

1457
01:30:16.479 --> 01:30:19.319
are gone from yesterday to today, and now even after lunch,

1458
01:30:19.319 --> 01:30:21.239
we've got some new ones. So anything else you want

1459
01:30:21.239 --> 01:30:24.800
to add right now as to factors.

1460
01:30:25.479 --> 01:30:28.399
As far as I don't believe that I've added any

1461
01:30:28.439 --> 01:30:35.920
new factors, I believe that's what I said yesterday.

1462
01:30:36.560 --> 01:30:39.720
All Right.

1463
01:30:44.159 --> 01:30:47.239
I've explained some of those factors because of your questions,

1464
01:30:47.479 --> 01:30:49.479
but I don't believe I've added any factors.

1465
01:30:50.000 --> 01:30:54.479
Okay, all right, let me move this forward just a

1466
01:30:54.520 --> 01:30:54.920
little bit.

1467
01:30:56.439 --> 01:31:03.439
Oh just so, most of this was stuff from.

1468
01:31:07.520 --> 01:31:09.479
Yeah couple on but not.

1469
01:31:14.239 --> 01:31:17.039
Yesterday in great detail about the boat case which you

1470
01:31:17.079 --> 01:31:20.159
brought up on the nine one one call and to

1471
01:31:20.439 --> 01:31:23.079
Daniel Green. Then, of course in this first interview, correct,

1472
01:31:23.960 --> 01:31:28.800
I did mention the boat wreck, all right, and you described.

1473
01:31:31.199 --> 01:31:31.279
That.

1474
01:31:32.039 --> 01:31:33.680
Do you remember what you said in this interview about

1475
01:31:33.720 --> 01:31:37.439
the boat rack? No, specifically specifically the other people involved

1476
01:31:37.439 --> 01:31:41.319
in the boat rack. You don't remember specifically? Do you

1477
01:31:41.359 --> 01:31:42.239
remember specifically?

1478
01:31:42.239 --> 01:31:44.239
I guess you said, now I remember talking about the

1479
01:31:44.279 --> 01:31:47.920
boat wreck, and did I talked about the boat wreck?

1480
01:31:47.960 --> 01:31:48.359
All right?

1481
01:31:48.600 --> 01:31:51.119
Well, I'm gonna play now from seventeen fourteen.

1482
01:31:51.520 --> 01:31:55.439
Mm hmm direct threats between any of the people on

1483
01:31:55.600 --> 01:31:58.680
the boat specifically, but I do think there's there a

1484
01:31:59.600 --> 01:32:03.319
small amount of yep yeap between a couple of them,

1485
01:32:03.359 --> 01:32:04.399
but not recently.

1486
01:32:04.520 --> 01:32:07.520
Okay, well it was the.

1487
01:32:07.600 --> 01:32:09.520
Term you use for that small.

1488
01:32:09.199 --> 01:32:10.119
Amount ye yet.

1489
01:32:10.600 --> 01:32:13.479
Yeah, And just to be clear, mister Waters, there was

1490
01:32:13.680 --> 01:32:16.479
never ever a point in time where I thought that

1491
01:32:16.520 --> 01:32:19.199
the people that were involved in the boat wreck.

1492
01:32:19.520 --> 01:32:23.279
Did this to Paul, Paul and Maggie. I've never thought that.

1493
01:32:23.880 --> 01:32:27.840
All right, I never thought that. But it's literally one

1494
01:32:27.880 --> 01:32:29.399
of the first things that you said out of the

1495
01:32:29.479 --> 01:32:30.239
nine one one call.

1496
01:32:30.880 --> 01:32:32.159
No, that's not what I said.

1497
01:32:32.399 --> 01:32:36.520
I never, ever, ever, under any point in time, believed

1498
01:32:36.520 --> 01:32:39.359
that those kids that were riding in that boat, or

1499
01:32:39.399 --> 01:32:43.039
their parents, or their parents or their families. I didn't

1500
01:32:43.079 --> 01:32:45.600
believe that any of the families the people that were

1501
01:32:45.680 --> 01:32:48.479
involved in the boat wreck had anything to do with

1502
01:32:48.560 --> 01:32:50.920
hurting Maggie and Paul. But I can tell you that

1503
01:32:51.039 --> 01:32:53.840
at that time, and as I sit here today, that.

1504
01:32:53.880 --> 01:32:58.640
I believed that boat wreck is the reason why Paul, Paul,

1505
01:32:58.680 --> 01:33:02.560
and Maggie were killed. And I believe.

1506
01:33:02.319 --> 01:33:05.680
That there was random vigilantes, the five two Vangilanes.

1507
01:33:07.039 --> 01:33:09.760
Now what I believe, mister Waters is I believe that

1508
01:33:10.720 --> 01:33:22.399
when Paul was charged criminally, there were so many leaks,

1509
01:33:26.039 --> 01:33:34.920
half truths, half reports, half statements, partial information, misrepresentations of

1510
01:33:35.000 --> 01:33:39.000
Paul that ended up in the media all the time.

1511
01:33:40.680 --> 01:33:45.800
And when I tell you, the social media response that

1512
01:33:45.960 --> 01:33:46.880
came from that.

1513
01:33:48.560 --> 01:33:51.600
Was vile. The things that were said about what they

1514
01:33:51.600 --> 01:33:53.960
would do to Papa, they were so over the top.

1515
01:33:55.520 --> 01:33:59.840
That nobody would believe anybody would get on social media

1516
01:33:59.880 --> 01:34:06.199
and do that. But I believe then and I believe today,

1517
01:34:06.880 --> 01:34:14.279
that the wrong person, the wrong person saw and read that,

1518
01:34:17.640 --> 01:34:22.079
because I can tell you for the fact.

1519
01:34:22.880 --> 01:34:27.960
That the person or people who did what I saw

1520
01:34:29.239 --> 01:34:36.600
on June seventh, they hated Paul murdered, and they had

1521
01:34:36.720 --> 01:34:41.319
anger in their heart, and that is the only, the

1522
01:34:41.520 --> 01:34:45.039
only reason that somebody could be mad at Paul. Paul

1523
01:34:45.159 --> 01:34:46.720
liked that and hate him like that.

1524
01:34:47.239 --> 01:34:49.840
Got all right, So we've got now.

1525
01:34:51.119 --> 01:34:53.560
But that's why I did then believe it was the

1526
01:34:53.600 --> 01:34:56.239
boat rack, and I believe now that the boat rack.

1527
01:34:56.359 --> 01:34:58.000
All right, So we had got nothing to do with it.

1528
01:34:57.960 --> 01:35:01.640
All right, So we've got random because of the boat wreck.

1529
01:35:02.079 --> 01:35:04.159
Now I don't know that they're random vigilantes.

1530
01:35:04.359 --> 01:35:06.119
Well, you just said it wasn't the family or the

1531
01:35:06.199 --> 01:35:08.039
kid or there are the kids or the family of

1532
01:35:08.119 --> 01:35:10.439
the other kids in the boat right footbool, So you're

1533
01:35:10.479 --> 01:35:12.680
saying as somebody off of social media and you don't

1534
01:35:12.680 --> 01:35:14.920
have any of the evidence of that. Dude, you just

1535
01:35:14.960 --> 01:35:17.079
believe that, and you're telling that jury that as you

1536
01:35:17.159 --> 01:35:19.039
try to explain the lie that you told for the

1537
01:35:19.039 --> 01:35:20.439
first time yesterday. Isn't that right?

1538
01:35:20.600 --> 01:35:22.159
No, sir, that's right, It's not right.

1539
01:35:23.079 --> 01:35:23.399
All right.

1540
01:35:23.439 --> 01:35:25.000
Well, let me ask you a question then, So what

1541
01:35:25.039 --> 01:35:28.159
you're telling this jury is that it's a random vigilante.

1542
01:35:28.640 --> 01:35:31.560
That's your twelve year old, the twelve year old five

1543
01:35:31.640 --> 01:35:35.000
two people that just happened to know that Paul and

1544
01:35:35.079 --> 01:35:38.439
Maggie were both at Mozille on June seventh. That knew

1545
01:35:38.439 --> 01:35:40.720
that they would be at the kennels alone on June

1546
01:35:40.720 --> 01:35:42.439
the seventh. They knew that you would not be there.

1547
01:35:42.479 --> 01:35:44.920
But only between the times of eight forty nine and

1548
01:35:45.039 --> 01:35:47.520
nine oh two that they show up without a weapon,

1549
01:35:48.079 --> 01:35:50.520
assuming that they're going to find weapons and ammunition there,

1550
01:35:51.000 --> 01:35:53.600
that they commit this crime during that short time window,

1551
01:35:53.760 --> 01:35:55.880
and then they travel the same exact route that you

1552
01:35:56.000 --> 01:35:59.439
do around the same time to al Meta. That's what

1553
01:35:59.479 --> 01:36:01.760
you're trying to tell this jury.

1554
01:36:02.159 --> 01:36:04.720
You got a lot of factors in there, mister Waters,

1555
01:36:05.239 --> 01:36:07.680
all of which I do not agree with, but some

1556
01:36:07.760 --> 01:36:08.520
of which I do.

1557
01:36:10.359 --> 01:36:19.920
You testified earlier that after this happened. Well, let me

1558
01:36:20.000 --> 01:36:21.560
back up just real quick. When you were driving to

1559
01:36:21.600 --> 01:36:25.439
and from Albia, Why were you in such a hurry?

1560
01:36:25.720 --> 01:36:27.520
Why are you rolling seventy eighty miles an hour down

1561
01:36:27.600 --> 01:36:29.640
that dark, beat up road.

1562
01:36:30.600 --> 01:36:31.920
I wasn't in such a hurry.

1563
01:36:32.119 --> 01:36:39.199
You weren't, No, sir, Selly Western Marks States five Septer three,

1564
01:36:39.560 --> 01:36:40.640
sud You recognize this.

1565
01:36:44.279 --> 01:36:44.840
I do.

1566
01:36:44.960 --> 01:36:46.199
I tell the jury what that is.

1567
01:36:46.680 --> 01:36:49.479
It's a nice cook, right, and what's it? In front of.

1568
01:36:51.399 --> 01:36:54.279
The house at Moseilla, and what's between the house and

1569
01:36:54.399 --> 01:36:55.800
the Mercedes.

1570
01:36:57.359 --> 01:37:00.720
The golf cart. Is that where it.

1571
01:37:00.760 --> 01:37:01.520
Was on Janey eight?

1572
01:37:01.680 --> 01:37:02.479
Do you recollect?

1573
01:37:03.119 --> 01:37:07.560
No, sir, I mean it was near there, but that's

1574
01:37:07.640 --> 01:37:10.600
not exactly where it was, No, sir, okay, Where was

1575
01:37:10.640 --> 01:37:12.039
it where we would normally park.

1576
01:37:12.079 --> 01:37:15.640
It would be a little bit closer to the shed,

1577
01:37:16.840 --> 01:37:18.960
I mean a little bit closer to the to the house,

1578
01:37:19.000 --> 01:37:19.640
to the bushes.

1579
01:37:22.399 --> 01:37:23.800
When was that photograph taken?

1580
01:37:24.159 --> 01:37:25.760
Well, do you recognize when it was taking?

1581
01:37:26.800 --> 01:37:27.520
No, I don't.

1582
01:37:27.640 --> 01:37:28.600
I don't recognize.

1583
01:37:29.199 --> 01:37:31.319
This wasn't dispute that it was around the time in

1584
01:37:31.359 --> 01:37:34.119
the aftermath of the murders.

1585
01:37:35.159 --> 01:37:36.399
After math being when.

1586
01:37:36.840 --> 01:37:39.359
I'm asking you a day, a week or hour. I

1587
01:37:39.359 --> 01:37:41.760
wasn't there, mister murder. Do you recognize that.

1588
01:37:42.520 --> 01:37:45.399
I recognized the car, I recognized the house, and I

1589
01:37:45.439 --> 01:37:50.800
recognized the golf cart. But that is not that's that's

1590
01:37:50.880 --> 01:37:54.960
not exactly how it would have been that night.

1591
01:37:55.479 --> 01:37:57.760
Can you can you describe to need them where it

1592
01:37:57.760 --> 01:37:58.800
would be different.

1593
01:37:59.119 --> 01:38:06.960
Well, it would be more in line with first things. First,

1594
01:38:07.159 --> 01:38:11.840
is when we drove the golf cart, or when I

1595
01:38:11.920 --> 01:38:14.359
drove it, for sure, and I believe when the others

1596
01:38:14.439 --> 01:38:17.439
drove it you would come in, and you would you

1597
01:38:17.479 --> 01:38:20.840
would go across the little brick walkway that's in front

1598
01:38:20.880 --> 01:38:21.079
of this.

1599
01:38:21.439 --> 01:38:24.680
So if I would have come in and gone this way,

1600
01:38:25.000 --> 01:38:26.600
or I would have come in and gone this way,

1601
01:38:26.800 --> 01:38:30.720
this is not a place that any of my family

1602
01:38:30.760 --> 01:38:33.760
would have normally partnered it. And so what I'm assuming

1603
01:38:33.960 --> 01:38:38.760
is this obviously is taken at daytime, and what I'm

1604
01:38:38.800 --> 01:38:43.039
assuming is is it was taken when Sled came to

1605
01:38:43.119 --> 01:38:45.520
that The earliest it was taken was when Sled came

1606
01:38:45.560 --> 01:38:48.079
to the house the next day, which I believe the

1607
01:38:48.119 --> 01:38:51.000
testimony is in the afternoon.

1608
01:38:51.359 --> 01:38:57.720
And at this point in time that golf cart, I

1609
01:38:57.720 --> 01:39:01.560
would assume would have been moved several times. But that's

1610
01:39:01.640 --> 01:39:02.279
not how it was.

1611
01:39:02.319 --> 01:39:04.079
Well, where did you leave the golf park when you

1612
01:39:04.159 --> 01:39:05.800
got out of it around eight forty nine.

1613
01:39:06.680 --> 01:39:09.319
In the manner in which I just talked about.

1614
01:39:09.000 --> 01:39:12.439
Okay, well help me out again. So I understand you

1615
01:39:12.439 --> 01:39:13.960
you would have come around this way or that way,

1616
01:39:13.960 --> 01:39:15.079
But where was it? Where would it end?

1617
01:39:15.159 --> 01:39:18.399
It would have been in this picture is facing to

1618
01:39:18.520 --> 01:39:21.880
the right. I got you the night the night that

1619
01:39:22.079 --> 01:39:24.159
I drove it, I believe I parked it.

1620
01:39:24.079 --> 01:39:28.960
Facing to the left would be customarily how I did it,

1621
01:39:29.279 --> 01:39:31.119
and I believe I did it that way that night,

1622
01:39:31.880 --> 01:39:35.600
and that is how I would have gotten into it.

1623
01:39:36.119 --> 01:39:39.640
That's a very specific memory. Thank you all right for

1624
01:39:40.079 --> 01:39:45.520
states five seventy three admit it without a church, but

1625
01:39:45.600 --> 01:39:46.680
I think, oh no, very briefly.

1626
01:39:48.359 --> 01:39:50.439
And see, mister Waters, you can see in the picture

1627
01:39:50.479 --> 01:39:52.720
now that you've bring us up on screen, if you

1628
01:39:52.720 --> 01:39:56.680
look to the right, you can see the actual steps,

1629
01:39:57.159 --> 01:39:59.039
and just to the left of that would be where

1630
01:39:59.039 --> 01:40:03.640
the little brick patty starts, So where I would normally

1631
01:40:03.680 --> 01:40:06.119
park it. You would roll across those bricks and the

1632
01:40:06.239 --> 01:40:08.640
end of the golf cart would be just past those.

1633
01:40:11.520 --> 01:40:14.239
And we all normally parked it that way. Because the

1634
01:40:14.279 --> 01:40:17.279
way you charge this golf cart is if you see

1635
01:40:17.279 --> 01:40:21.039
that back seat that's sitting, you can see the edge.

1636
01:40:21.119 --> 01:40:23.319
This is a three seat golf cart, and you can

1637
01:40:23.399 --> 01:40:27.000
see the back seat. And a lot of golf carts

1638
01:40:27.119 --> 01:40:31.279
have the charger. This sits on the floor or something.

1639
01:40:31.439 --> 01:40:34.319
This golf cart has a charger that's plugged in and

1640
01:40:34.359 --> 01:40:36.439
a part of the golf cart, so you flip that

1641
01:40:36.560 --> 01:40:41.520
seat up and it plugs in and the outlets are

1642
01:40:41.600 --> 01:40:42.680
right up there by the door.

1643
01:40:43.920 --> 01:40:46.840
Yeah, anything else you want to say about that.

1644
01:40:47.760 --> 01:40:50.880
I'm gonna answer any questions you have, mister Waters, Why.

1645
01:40:50.760 --> 01:40:52.800
I foresaid all that information and breaking etail?

1646
01:40:56.960 --> 01:40:58.000
Gad you did the comments?

1647
01:41:00.079 --> 01:41:00.720
This thing.

1648
01:41:04.520 --> 01:41:15.319
All right, it's just never parked that way by the family.

1649
01:41:24.600 --> 01:41:39.600
Now the computer back, please, what's up, mister murdrack. I'm

1650
01:41:39.600 --> 01:41:41.119
gonna put a second interview.

1651
01:41:42.039 --> 01:41:44.960
This would have been in June the tenth. I'm not

1652
01:41:44.960 --> 01:41:46.319
gonna play the whole thing, but I do want to

1653
01:41:46.319 --> 01:41:47.279
go through a couple of things.

1654
01:41:47.119 --> 01:41:50.600
With you, Okay, anything you want to go through this work.

1655
01:41:52.079 --> 01:41:55.199
For the record, I'm gonna start, guys today. I'm gonna

1656
01:41:55.199 --> 01:41:57.720
started at twenty three fifty five. This is the first

1657
01:41:57.760 --> 01:41:59.920
interview trouble.

1658
01:42:02.039 --> 01:42:04.600
She's been out of trouble with her stomach and her tooth.

1659
01:42:04.680 --> 01:42:05.640
I'm not positive.

1660
01:42:05.760 --> 01:42:11.680
It was sort of a routine visit and I can't remember.

1661
01:42:12.800 --> 01:42:14.680
She told me the name of it, and I can't.

1662
01:42:15.479 --> 01:42:21.000
I want to say Gordyne. Gordeen Gordeyne is who I

1663
01:42:21.000 --> 01:42:21.760
think she saw.

1664
01:42:27.319 --> 01:42:29.439
So was she back home or else upper Town.

1665
01:42:30.760 --> 01:42:34.319
Or six o'clock, seven o'clock.

1666
01:42:36.960 --> 01:42:39.239
I don't think she got back quite that early.

1667
01:42:39.279 --> 01:42:40.399
I think she got back a.

1668
01:42:40.439 --> 01:42:41.520
Little bit later than that.

1669
01:42:41.840 --> 01:42:52.279
Okay, what did you do today?

1670
01:42:52.560 --> 01:42:53.880
Were you at the officer?

1671
01:42:54.039 --> 01:42:54.920
No, I was home.

1672
01:42:55.039 --> 01:42:56.920
I can't even following out mester around.

1673
01:42:57.479 --> 01:43:01.279
I uh, I was up at the house.

1674
01:43:01.520 --> 01:43:05.720
I laid answered the knap on the couch. Probably, I

1675
01:43:05.720 --> 01:43:06.039
don't know.

1676
01:43:06.640 --> 01:43:07.560
Twenty five.

1677
01:43:09.760 --> 01:43:14.720
I called Maggie, didn't get an answer, and.

1678
01:43:16.239 --> 01:43:17.680
If I left to go to.

1679
01:43:17.760 --> 01:43:21.279
My moms, she'd said she might ride with me and Clay.

1680
01:43:21.399 --> 01:43:29.319
She normally doesn't when I go over there, and I

1681
01:43:29.399 --> 01:43:30.680
think I texted.

1682
01:43:30.239 --> 01:43:35.680
Her there when you repeated the lie that you decided.

1683
01:43:38.199 --> 01:43:40.520
Was that the moment that I decided to lie to

1684
01:43:40.560 --> 01:43:43.840
mean old Dave Owen, I don't. I don't know, as

1685
01:43:43.880 --> 01:43:45.920
I told you, mister Water, is the exact moment that

1686
01:43:45.960 --> 01:43:48.560
I decided to lie, but at that point in time.

1687
01:43:49.720 --> 01:43:52.439
But you did lie there, correct, I did.

1688
01:43:53.520 --> 01:43:55.640
And she's very good about answering the folks at the

1689
01:43:55.680 --> 01:43:57.520
house or calling me back.

1690
01:43:57.600 --> 01:44:00.560
So that was odd, But it wasn't that a good deal?

1691
01:44:02.880 --> 01:44:05.720
All right, I'm gonna go to the second interview. It's

1692
01:44:05.760 --> 01:44:10.560
been previously admitted. Let me ask you this before we started.

1693
01:44:10.840 --> 01:44:13.800
You said it earlier during your direct testimony that after

1694
01:44:14.439 --> 01:44:20.199
these crimes happened, you were around family. Family was around you,

1695
01:44:20.199 --> 01:44:23.920
your law partners around you pretty much every minute after that, correct,

1696
01:44:24.960 --> 01:44:29.039
every waking minute. Then you say that yesterday.

1697
01:44:29.199 --> 01:44:32.840
Yes they were for a long time, all.

1698
01:44:32.800 --> 01:44:35.079
Right, And this second interview is three days later.

1699
01:44:35.119 --> 01:44:35.640
Is that right?

1700
01:44:37.520 --> 01:44:38.159
That's correct?

1701
01:44:39.000 --> 01:44:43.600
And in no time with any of your close friends

1702
01:44:43.640 --> 01:44:47.520
and law partners and family do you confess the truth?

1703
01:44:48.279 --> 01:44:49.560
Do you know I did not?

1704
01:44:53.520 --> 01:44:55.520
Do you say, hey, man, I think I messed up?

1705
01:44:56.600 --> 01:44:57.680
What should I do about this?

1706
01:44:58.520 --> 01:44:58.600
No?

1707
01:44:58.680 --> 01:45:01.680
I did I telling that lot at anyone? Are you

1708
01:45:02.520 --> 01:45:03.600
until yesterday?

1709
01:45:04.000 --> 01:45:04.640
Excuse me?

1710
01:45:04.800 --> 01:45:07.800
You're not telling that lot of anyone until yesterday? Are you.

1711
01:45:10.239 --> 01:45:19.399
Not telling what life saying? I tried to tell somebody

1712
01:45:19.439 --> 01:45:20.399
that I was lying.

1713
01:45:26.960 --> 01:45:31.760
All right, red thing getting all right, crashing on my

1714
01:45:31.880 --> 01:45:32.800
twelve twenty eight.

1715
01:45:32.920 --> 01:45:37.159
Him he don't like the doctors making him go get

1716
01:45:37.159 --> 01:45:38.199
his blood pressure checked.

1717
01:45:38.239 --> 01:45:41.319
His feat had swollen enough recently. Well, so you know

1718
01:45:41.760 --> 01:45:44.920
that was there was there was a big, huge deal.

1719
01:45:45.920 --> 01:45:47.920
You know, we hung around the house for a little while.

1720
01:45:48.960 --> 01:45:53.039
I know that Maggie went to the kennels. I don't

1721
01:45:53.079 --> 01:45:55.720
know exactly where Paul went that he left the house.

1722
01:45:55.560 --> 01:45:59.399
To okay, towdy Maggie getting down to the kennels.

1723
01:46:00.039 --> 01:46:03.479
I don't know exactly, but on normal occasions she would

1724
01:46:03.520 --> 01:46:08.239
drive drive a buggy, trive, a four wheeler, or very

1725
01:46:08.279 --> 01:46:10.279
common for her to walk.

1726
01:46:11.359 --> 01:46:11.880
About Paul.

1727
01:46:12.760 --> 01:46:15.279
Paul wasn't much of a walker, but he would use

1728
01:46:15.359 --> 01:46:20.600
all of the others. But I mean, could be anyway,

1729
01:46:20.720 --> 01:46:24.439
you know, I don't know exactly.

1730
01:46:24.720 --> 01:46:25.960
I wish I could help you with that.

1731
01:46:27.560 --> 01:46:30.720
So so they left and went down to the kennels.

1732
01:46:31.039 --> 01:46:32.560
Well, Maggie went to go to.

1733
01:46:32.479 --> 01:46:34.279
The kennels and Pole left.

1734
01:46:34.479 --> 01:46:38.880
And I'm assuming, you know, I'm assuming Paul left because

1735
01:46:38.920 --> 01:46:41.600
of you know what happened.

1736
01:46:41.960 --> 01:46:43.640
I mean, I'm su went to the.

1737
01:46:43.640 --> 01:46:49.640
Kennel and what did you do? Once Once Maggie and Pole.

1738
01:46:49.520 --> 01:46:51.960
Left, I stayed in the house and.

1739
01:46:53.439 --> 01:46:56.800
I was watching TV looking at my phone, and I

1740
01:46:56.880 --> 01:47:02.720
actually fell asleep on the couch. And what time did

1741
01:47:02.760 --> 01:47:05.720
you you know, I don't know exactly what time I

1742
01:47:05.760 --> 01:47:09.239
woke up, but when y'all get my phone, you know,

1743
01:47:09.399 --> 01:47:11.279
I think one of the first things I did when

1744
01:47:11.279 --> 01:47:13.000
I got up was called Maggie.

1745
01:47:13.239 --> 01:47:15.239
Because I was going to my mom's.

1746
01:47:17.239 --> 01:47:19.159
And I know I texted her because I checked my

1747
01:47:19.239 --> 01:47:21.239
phone And what time when we said the text was?

1748
01:47:21.359 --> 01:47:22.920
Yam like nine o six.

1749
01:47:23.439 --> 01:47:25.600
I didn't see that I got it riked out for me.

1750
01:47:26.680 --> 01:47:27.600
Yes, yes, I got it.

1751
01:47:27.680 --> 01:47:30.479
So you know I texted her, so I called her

1752
01:47:30.520 --> 01:47:31.159
just before that.

1753
01:47:31.920 --> 01:47:36.000
And I mean she she did an answer at that point,

1754
01:47:37.159 --> 01:47:38.319
and I left to go to.

1755
01:47:39.760 --> 01:47:40.279
My mom's.

1756
01:47:44.279 --> 01:47:46.560
Y'all just have to look, I don't I'm not sure

1757
01:47:46.560 --> 01:47:47.239
if I called.

1758
01:47:47.039 --> 01:47:49.000
It Paul well, and that, and that's why we're getting

1759
01:47:49.000 --> 01:47:51.159
phones so we can nail down the times and forgetting

1760
01:47:51.159 --> 01:47:51.840
before everything.

1761
01:47:56.199 --> 01:47:58.000
Pretty much all that was wise, wasn't.

1762
01:48:01.039 --> 01:48:03.239
The part about me not being at the kennel.

1763
01:48:03.800 --> 01:48:05.880
Was a little also, not knowing that Paul went down

1764
01:48:05.920 --> 01:48:07.560
there and not being sure that was a lie too,

1765
01:48:07.680 --> 01:48:09.560
wasn't it. I mean, you're putting some detail on this thing,

1766
01:48:09.840 --> 01:48:10.479
aren't you?

1767
01:48:10.560 --> 01:48:14.800
Not knowing when Paul left everything about me not going

1768
01:48:14.840 --> 01:48:16.199
to the kennel was a lie.

1769
01:48:16.760 --> 01:48:19.000
And you're able to just do that. That's so easily

1770
01:48:19.079 --> 01:48:21.840
and so convincingly and so naturally, don't you.

1771
01:48:23.199 --> 01:48:24.920
I mean, that's nothing me to judge.

1772
01:48:25.880 --> 01:48:42.159
That's true.

1773
01:48:42.920 --> 01:48:47.479
It's an odd story.

1774
01:48:50.079 --> 01:48:51.359
I don't get to where I'm going.

1775
01:48:53.399 --> 01:48:53.760
Right now.

1776
01:48:54.119 --> 01:48:55.479
Do y'all have any good clues?

1777
01:49:00.800 --> 01:49:03.319
So we we're trying to put a rush on that

1778
01:49:03.439 --> 01:49:07.960
to get an answer quick and and hoping that's gonna

1779
01:49:08.000 --> 01:49:08.479
tell us.

1780
01:49:08.359 --> 01:49:12.000
Something that I mean, is it things you're thinking are going.

1781
01:49:11.920 --> 01:49:12.600
To be helpful.

1782
01:49:13.800 --> 01:49:16.319
Well, I mean to like the shop shells out there,

1783
01:49:15.920 --> 01:49:20.199
that the case ins, the DNA swabs that we took

1784
01:49:20.199 --> 01:49:22.199
from the door handle to see if anybody touched the

1785
01:49:22.199 --> 01:49:25.319
door handles, any other places that we think somebody may.

1786
01:49:25.319 --> 01:49:26.159
Have touched.

1787
01:49:27.479 --> 01:49:29.760
While they were out there. You know, we're trying to

1788
01:49:29.760 --> 01:49:33.399
collect DNA from that and that the last that which

1789
01:49:33.439 --> 01:49:35.479
had the conclusion of this. But what I'm what I

1790
01:49:35.520 --> 01:49:37.319
also ask because if we get a buckle slag the

1791
01:49:37.359 --> 01:49:40.159
DNA squad from you, your your DNA is going to

1792
01:49:40.239 --> 01:49:42.479
be there, but we need to eliminate it's one of

1793
01:49:42.479 --> 01:49:46.039
the one that wants us developed, so you know we

1794
01:49:46.079 --> 01:49:46.600
don't need.

1795
01:49:46.520 --> 01:49:48.439
To Yeah, it actually is.

1796
01:49:51.199 --> 01:49:53.840
I mean, we we have talked to.

1797
01:49:56.479 --> 01:49:59.079
Close to one hundred people trying to track people down

1798
01:49:59.079 --> 01:50:01.920
and we're still tracking without and that's why you know

1799
01:50:02.039 --> 01:50:04.560
who who follows with.

1800
01:50:04.640 --> 01:50:06.319
I want to tell you one thing while I'm thinking

1801
01:50:06.319 --> 01:50:07.199
about that.

1802
01:50:07.239 --> 01:50:11.960
Paul was really an incredibly.

1803
01:50:12.640 --> 01:50:14.560
Intuitive little dude.

1804
01:50:15.239 --> 01:50:18.600
And I mean he was like a little detective.

1805
01:50:20.520 --> 01:50:22.720
He was like a little detective of that what you said.

1806
01:50:23.000 --> 01:50:28.359
That's what I said, and he was very intuitive, like I.

1807
01:50:28.279 --> 01:50:34.319
Said, And that was what Marion described is Maggie's term

1808
01:50:34.439 --> 01:50:38.279
for how he was and keeping tabs on your pill usage.

1809
01:50:38.439 --> 01:50:39.199
Wasn't that correct?

1810
01:50:39.560 --> 01:50:42.079
That that was what Maggie said about him.

1811
01:50:42.359 --> 01:50:44.199
For some reason, you decided to bring that up in

1812
01:50:44.239 --> 01:50:45.319
this interview, didn't you.

1813
01:50:48.760 --> 01:50:50.880
I mean, that was a ian that was a trade

1814
01:50:50.880 --> 01:50:52.079
of Paul's personality.

1815
01:50:52.319 --> 01:50:55.039
I mean, I think anybody who knew him would tell

1816
01:50:55.079 --> 01:50:56.399
you how intuitive he was.

1817
01:51:05.439 --> 01:51:16.680
Yure m h.

1818
01:51:18.479 --> 01:51:20.800
All right, for the record, I'm at forty six thirty.

1819
01:51:23.600 --> 01:51:26.640
Well, thank you very much, so.

1820
01:51:29.319 --> 01:51:30.159
Let's let's drave it.

1821
01:51:30.640 --> 01:51:31.640
You don't have to call mean this.

1822
01:51:31.840 --> 01:51:33.720
You thank you for that.

1823
01:51:36.199 --> 01:51:39.279
When when yeah, well you and Paul got back to

1824
01:51:39.279 --> 01:51:39.600
the house.

1825
01:51:39.680 --> 01:51:46.119
Miss Maggie's there and y'all eat supper which has been prepared.

1826
01:51:47.079 --> 01:51:49.439
And you say, you said you laid down and took

1827
01:51:49.479 --> 01:51:53.039
a little that out and when you got up, Maggie

1828
01:51:53.079 --> 01:51:55.159
and Paul was God the Lord of daily when you

1829
01:51:55.199 --> 01:51:55.680
lay down.

1830
01:51:56.279 --> 01:51:57.359
I believed that.

1831
01:52:04.079 --> 01:52:07.560
I'm not sure, but they.

1832
01:52:07.520 --> 01:52:11.319
Weren't there when you book around nine o'clock fark or

1833
01:52:11.399 --> 01:52:14.439
so when you made you call to Maggie to letter day.

1834
01:52:16.039 --> 01:52:19.079
Nobody does in that house when I when I.

1835
01:52:19.119 --> 01:52:28.199
Left, since they've just tried to narrow that the last

1836
01:52:28.239 --> 01:52:28.720
time that.

1837
01:52:30.399 --> 01:52:31.880
Fall and you shall fallow.

1838
01:52:31.960 --> 01:52:39.079
Maggie's from y'a already suffer, Yes, sir Faling, Your answer.

1839
01:52:38.960 --> 01:52:42.359
Was yes, sir, that's correct.

1840
01:52:42.800 --> 01:52:45.920
So Waters by this point had to be thinking, unless

1841
01:52:46.039 --> 01:52:50.960
he majorly fucks up, he's got Alex dead rights on

1842
01:52:51.199 --> 01:52:55.119
this whole deal. So he decides to transition to the

1843
01:52:55.199 --> 01:53:02.039
financial aspects of his crimes and Alex's accomplices to those crimes. Specifically,

1844
01:53:02.319 --> 01:53:07.239
he focuses on Elex's friend at Palametto State Bank where

1845
01:53:07.279 --> 01:53:08.760
he got the majority.

1846
01:53:08.359 --> 01:53:09.199
Of his loans.

1847
01:53:10.039 --> 01:53:15.079
So listen to just how masterful creating Waters handles this

1848
01:53:15.359 --> 01:53:20.039
aspect of the testimony, and Alex sorry asks excuses for

1849
01:53:20.319 --> 01:53:23.159
why he did what he did, is it relates to

1850
01:53:23.239 --> 01:53:26.560
those financial crimes. You're also going to hear him ask

1851
01:53:26.720 --> 01:53:31.600
Eleck about Alex's theory of unknown assailants as the person's

1852
01:53:31.720 --> 01:53:35.439
being responsible for these murders at Mozelle.

1853
01:53:35.720 --> 01:53:40.520
And here's that about to go to the August twenty

1854
01:53:40.560 --> 01:53:45.199
twenty one interview. But between that June tenth interview and

1855
01:53:45.319 --> 01:53:53.960
the August interview, you we're not working very much, is

1856
01:53:54.000 --> 01:53:56.000
that correct, if at all.

1857
01:53:57.560 --> 01:54:00.279
No, I definitely wasn't working very much. I think I

1858
01:54:00.439 --> 01:54:04.239
was working a little bit, but no, not damn much

1859
01:54:04.279 --> 01:54:04.520
at all.

1860
01:54:06.640 --> 01:54:11.399
Did you go to Johnny Parker to borrow two hundred

1861
01:54:11.399 --> 01:54:14.720
and fifty thousand dollars in order to cover the Ferris

1862
01:54:14.840 --> 01:54:15.560
Field fees?

1863
01:54:16.520 --> 01:54:16.840
I did?

1864
01:54:17.279 --> 01:54:17.680
You didn't?

1865
01:54:17.840 --> 01:54:18.159
I did.

1866
01:54:18.439 --> 01:54:19.680
Did you tell him what that was for?

1867
01:54:20.239 --> 01:54:20.279
No?

1868
01:54:20.560 --> 01:54:22.039
I did not tell him what that was for.

1869
01:54:28.239 --> 01:54:28.720
Did you go.

1870
01:54:30.600 --> 01:54:34.239
To Rustle the Feet at Palmetta State Bank and get

1871
01:54:34.279 --> 01:54:39.279
three hundred and fifty thousand dollars in order to help

1872
01:54:39.399 --> 01:54:41.479
cover some of the Ferris fees that you had taken

1873
01:54:41.600 --> 01:54:42.680
the sound Chris Wilson.

1874
01:54:42.840 --> 01:54:43.159
I did?

1875
01:54:44.279 --> 01:54:46.800
And did you get those fees before you signed any

1876
01:54:46.800 --> 01:54:48.119
paperwork or documentation?

1877
01:54:50.119 --> 01:54:53.560
I've heard testimony about that in this case, but I can't.

1878
01:54:53.880 --> 01:54:57.159
I can't tell you the specifics of that. You don't

1879
01:54:57.159 --> 01:55:01.439
recall that, Do I recall when I said on paperwork? No, sir,

1880
01:55:01.600 --> 01:55:03.159
you don't recall that you got the money a month

1881
01:55:03.239 --> 01:55:04.199
before you had to sign.

1882
01:55:04.000 --> 01:55:04.680
An your paperwork.

1883
01:55:06.760 --> 01:55:07.920
No, sir, I don't recall that.

1884
01:55:09.640 --> 01:55:11.159
Call your phone being in the console with it.

1885
01:55:11.239 --> 01:55:13.159
I'm not disputing that, but I don't recall it.

1886
01:55:15.720 --> 01:55:20.600
Did you go to your best friend, Chris Wilson, and

1887
01:55:20.800 --> 01:55:23.239
convince him to cover one hundred and ninety two thousand

1888
01:55:23.319 --> 01:55:25.920
dollars the remaining one hundred and two ninety thousand dollars

1889
01:55:26.760 --> 01:55:30.880
in order for him to send that email to your

1890
01:55:30.960 --> 01:55:33.199
law firm as if those fees had been there all along.

1891
01:55:33.800 --> 01:55:37.279
I spoke to Chris Wilson and did not have the

1892
01:55:37.399 --> 01:55:41.119
full amount of the fees, and I got Chris Wilson

1893
01:55:41.479 --> 01:55:44.520
to put your remaining fees in his trust account.

1894
01:55:44.720 --> 01:55:46.279
And when you did that, you didn't tell him the

1895
01:55:46.319 --> 01:55:49.520
truth about your life. You just asked him to cover you.

1896
01:55:50.760 --> 01:55:52.880
I did not tell him, and he agreed to do

1897
01:55:53.000 --> 01:55:55.199
that because of his belief of who you really were

1898
01:55:56.079 --> 01:55:57.159
or who he thought you were.

1899
01:55:58.039 --> 01:56:00.680
He agreed to do that for whatever as I assumed,

1900
01:56:00.720 --> 01:56:01.760
that was a big part of it.

1901
01:56:05.000 --> 01:56:09.880
And once that six hundred thousand dollars was transferred, Chris

1902
01:56:09.920 --> 01:56:12.800
Wilson sent an email to you saying those fees have

1903
01:56:12.920 --> 01:56:14.800
been there were in his trust account.

1904
01:56:15.159 --> 01:56:16.560
Correct, That is correct?

1905
01:56:17.079 --> 01:56:20.119
And then you forwarded that email to Leek Hope and

1906
01:56:20.199 --> 01:56:22.520
Genie Seconder. Correct.

1907
01:56:23.359 --> 01:56:25.199
I know I afforded to Genie, and I've heard that

1908
01:56:25.359 --> 01:56:29.199
testimony about forwarding it to Leeko. So I believe that's correct.

1909
01:56:30.359 --> 01:56:33.800
I'll get it off from PSD because at that time

1910
01:56:34.800 --> 01:56:39.760
there were limitations on how much I could borrow.

1911
01:56:42.840 --> 01:56:57.439
Because MAGS was passed and so I was limited. I

1912
01:56:57.520 --> 01:56:59.279
couldn't get a loan.

1913
01:56:59.159 --> 01:57:04.199
Against Moselle and had to get a loan against Palmetta State,

1914
01:57:04.680 --> 01:57:06.600
I mean against uh Edista.

1915
01:57:18.319 --> 01:57:34.479
Going to the third interview, all right, I'm gonna go

1916
01:57:34.640 --> 01:57:39.119
to seventeen forty five. Three seen this, so I mean again,

1917
01:57:39.199 --> 01:57:41.239
you repeated the same lies over and over again. I

1918
01:57:41.359 --> 01:57:43.640
did effortlessly and convincingly.

1919
01:57:45.840 --> 01:57:46.680
I don't know about that.

1920
01:57:46.960 --> 01:57:48.920
Well, they can see it there.

1921
01:57:49.560 --> 01:57:50.199
I agree with that.

1922
01:57:50.479 --> 01:57:51.439
Nobody yelled at you.

1923
01:57:52.119 --> 01:57:54.640
Nobody yelled at mean, nobody, nobody. None of these guys

1924
01:57:54.720 --> 01:58:00.760
were ever discourteous to me. Nobody what I said, None

1925
01:58:00.800 --> 01:58:02.479
of those guys were ever discourteous to me.

1926
01:58:03.880 --> 01:58:06.560
You made a comment earlier that David Owens was mean

1927
01:58:06.720 --> 01:58:09.399
or something about being mean, and he was never mean

1928
01:58:09.479 --> 01:58:09.680
to me.

1929
01:58:13.439 --> 01:58:17.960
All right, But you decided to lie in part because

1930
01:58:18.000 --> 01:58:19.359
you distrusted David Owen.

1931
01:58:20.640 --> 01:58:25.760
I distrusted sled in general, and I particularly distrusted who

1932
01:58:25.880 --> 01:58:27.520
I thought was David Owen at the time.

1933
01:58:30.039 --> 01:58:31.680
Who turned out not to be David Owen.

1934
01:58:32.800 --> 01:58:34.199
So wait a minute, I want to be clear. You're

1935
01:58:34.199 --> 01:58:37.359
saying now you thought that this was some David Owen

1936
01:58:37.399 --> 01:58:39.600
that had something to do with Greg Alexander ten years ago.

1937
01:58:40.359 --> 01:58:42.720
No, sir, and I'm not saying that now. I said

1938
01:58:42.760 --> 01:58:43.640
that all along.

1939
01:58:44.000 --> 01:58:44.239
Wow.

1940
01:58:44.800 --> 01:58:48.520
The person that I saw and watched in Greg Alexander's

1941
01:58:48.560 --> 01:58:55.239
trial that was clear to me was just it was

1942
01:58:56.399 --> 01:58:59.800
terrible what they did to Greg Alexander, and the person

1943
01:59:00.520 --> 01:59:02.439
had slid who was responsible for.

1944
01:59:02.520 --> 01:59:05.560
That was a guy named David and I might even

1945
01:59:05.640 --> 01:59:06.760
get into his last name.

1946
01:59:07.880 --> 01:59:11.439
I thought that David Owens that night was that guy

1947
01:59:11.960 --> 01:59:15.760
later down the road, and it was a while.

1948
01:59:16.680 --> 01:59:18.680
I checked into that, and I found out that I

1949
01:59:18.800 --> 01:59:20.760
was mistaken that it was not David Owen.

1950
01:59:21.079 --> 01:59:22.760
When wing back and we spent a lot of time

1951
01:59:22.800 --> 01:59:24.960
going through this first statement. You're telling me now that

1952
01:59:25.119 --> 01:59:28.119
you were sitting there thinking that this was a completely

1953
01:59:28.199 --> 01:59:30.039
different guy the whole time, and that was on your

1954
01:59:30.119 --> 01:59:31.920
mind during that entire interview.

1955
01:59:35.039 --> 01:59:38.199
Yes, at the time I thought that David Owen. No,

1956
01:59:38.319 --> 01:59:40.600
I didn't think David Owen was a different person. I

1957
01:59:40.680 --> 01:59:43.720
thought that David Owens was the person that my dad

1958
01:59:43.800 --> 01:59:50.319
and I had watched just my dad, and I truly

1959
01:59:50.399 --> 01:59:55.760
thought evidence was manufactured, and I thought it was David Owen,

1960
01:59:56.199 --> 01:59:59.840
And I was wrong about that, but that's what I

1961
02:00:00.039 --> 02:00:00.600
thought that night.

1962
02:00:04.760 --> 02:00:07.439
Any other factors or details you want to about your decisions?

1963
02:00:07.439 --> 02:00:08.880
Don't want to answer any question you have.

1964
02:00:10.520 --> 02:00:11.640
You know anymore?

1965
02:00:13.720 --> 02:00:14.880
Do you have any more questions?

1966
02:00:15.119 --> 02:00:17.399
No, I mean anymore about your decision to lie. I mean,

1967
02:00:17.640 --> 02:00:19.439
I just want to let's get it all out now.

1968
02:00:21.920 --> 02:00:24.000
If you have any questions, I'd be glad to answer.

1969
02:00:24.479 --> 02:00:25.199
All right, Well, I do.

1970
02:00:32.800 --> 02:00:37.800
Tell me about the replacement blackout. You initially told law

1971
02:00:37.880 --> 02:00:40.000
enforcement that you weren't sure whether or not there was

1972
02:00:40.119 --> 02:00:41.479
one crack them right.

1973
02:00:42.119 --> 02:00:44.199
Oh, no, sir, you're absolutely wrong about that.

1974
02:00:45.159 --> 02:00:45.880
What did you say that?

1975
02:00:47.199 --> 02:00:53.079
Shortly after this, it became being told that Paul's gun

1976
02:00:53.159 --> 02:00:56.319
had been stolen and uh, the one you heard talk

1977
02:00:56.359 --> 02:00:57.760
about being stolen from the thing.

1978
02:00:58.920 --> 02:01:00.920
And I'm not sure how I learned this, but I

1979
02:01:01.079 --> 02:01:05.159
learned that somebody I believe Shlid, had gone to.

1980
02:01:07.279 --> 02:01:10.159
John Bettingfield, who made those guns, and could only find

1981
02:01:10.199 --> 02:01:14.359
paperwork for two blackouts, one of which they were saying

1982
02:01:14.479 --> 02:01:18.439
was stolen in seventeen. And that's what they were telling me,

1983
02:01:19.520 --> 02:01:22.760
and I was certain and told them that I was

1984
02:01:22.840 --> 02:01:24.319
certain that there was a third one.

1985
02:01:25.560 --> 02:01:29.359
But initially in June eighth and June tenth or June tenth,

1986
02:01:29.479 --> 02:01:32.640
you were saying that you thought that y'all had replaced it,

1987
02:01:32.840 --> 02:01:35.159
and then you kind of waivered and then eventually said

1988
02:01:35.239 --> 02:01:35.960
you did replace it.

1989
02:01:36.039 --> 02:01:36.319
Correct.

1990
02:01:36.520 --> 02:01:38.800
I don't believe that's correct. No, say that's correct.

1991
02:01:39.039 --> 02:01:41.439
No, I don't believe that's you say the law enforcement

1992
02:01:41.520 --> 02:01:44.520
that you thought that the third gun, the replacement blackout,

1993
02:01:44.560 --> 02:01:46.600
had gone missing in Christmas of twenty twenty.

1994
02:01:48.279 --> 02:01:50.680
It did go missing in Christmas twenty twenty.

1995
02:01:50.640 --> 02:01:52.880
So you're telling them that one also had been missing

1996
02:01:53.600 --> 02:01:57.319
six months prior. Right, and answer my question first, and

1997
02:01:57.359 --> 02:01:59.920
then you can explain. Did you aught tell law enforcement

1998
02:02:00.000 --> 02:02:01.920
that gun had been missing since Christmas time?

1999
02:02:03.039 --> 02:02:05.279
I told law enforcement that when we looked for it

2000
02:02:05.760 --> 02:02:09.119
at Christmas time, we could not find it, and that

2001
02:02:09.279 --> 02:02:13.880
was that was accurate. We looked for it when we

2002
02:02:14.000 --> 02:02:17.119
were trying to shoot hogs, when we had a group

2003
02:02:17.159 --> 02:02:19.560
of people out there, and we could not find it.

2004
02:02:20.239 --> 02:02:22.840
Okay, but you now know that it was there's the

2005
02:02:22.880 --> 02:02:23.800
latest Turkey season.

2006
02:02:26.399 --> 02:02:29.159
I know I know that will love and Paul. Paul

2007
02:02:30.039 --> 02:02:30.359
had it.

2008
02:02:31.920 --> 02:02:34.560
Right before Turkey season like will Love and testify too,

2009
02:02:36.760 --> 02:02:40.760
So it was around Actually it was around there at

2010
02:02:40.840 --> 02:02:42.840
some point in time there, Yes, sir, So.

2011
02:02:42.920 --> 02:02:45.680
You're saying a guy stolen a second time or you

2012
02:02:45.880 --> 02:02:49.359
just don't know. No, I'm not the twelve year old

2013
02:02:49.439 --> 02:02:50.319
sotol it a second time.

2014
02:02:53.199 --> 02:02:55.399
I never said a twelve year old stole any gun.

2015
02:02:55.600 --> 02:02:57.680
Mystery with my two people stole it a second time.

2016
02:02:59.319 --> 02:03:01.680
I don't know that it was stolen. I just know

2017
02:03:01.840 --> 02:03:04.159
that when we look for it at Christmas time, we

2018
02:03:04.239 --> 02:03:04.960
couldn't find it.

2019
02:03:05.319 --> 02:03:05.840
And I know this.

2020
02:03:06.159 --> 02:03:10.239
I know that I hadn't seen that gun in a

2021
02:03:10.319 --> 02:03:10.880
long time.

2022
02:03:13.560 --> 02:03:16.680
I've heard the testimony that people who were at my

2023
02:03:16.880 --> 02:03:21.319
house using guns and hunting with us all the time,

2024
02:03:22.399 --> 02:03:28.920
Rogan uh Buscher, they didn't I can't remember about Busher,

2025
02:03:28.960 --> 02:03:30.560
but there were several people who didn't even know that

2026
02:03:30.640 --> 02:03:33.199
gun had been replaced. So that tells me that that

2027
02:03:33.359 --> 02:03:37.159
gun did not stay where our regular guns were. And

2028
02:03:37.279 --> 02:03:39.399
I know that I didn't see it there, and that

2029
02:03:39.640 --> 02:03:41.399
tells me that they didn't see it there.

2030
02:03:41.680 --> 02:03:43.079
And of course you didn't see it there, because it's

2031
02:03:43.079 --> 02:03:43.600
got to be messing.

2032
02:03:47.840 --> 02:03:48.439
That's that question.

2033
02:03:48.520 --> 02:03:51.439
Of circumstance for your latest story to work is that

2034
02:03:51.520 --> 02:03:54.199
it's got to be kissing as well. It was when

2035
02:03:54.239 --> 02:03:56.359
you sold law enforcement. It was missing your Christmas time.

2036
02:03:56.439 --> 02:03:59.840
Now we've had testimony of this trial and now you're

2037
02:04:00.000 --> 02:04:01.760
you're still claiming that you never saw it. It must

2038
02:04:01.760 --> 02:04:04.199
have been kept somewhere else Where else would it have

2039
02:04:04.279 --> 02:04:04.680
been kept.

2040
02:04:06.720 --> 02:04:08.760
It could have been kept anywhere, mister Waters. For the

2041
02:04:08.800 --> 02:04:12.840
way Paul did guns, the way guns were handled around there, I.

2042
02:04:12.920 --> 02:04:13.760
Was terrible about that.

2043
02:04:14.279 --> 02:04:15.199
You're terrible about that.

2044
02:04:21.680 --> 02:04:22.720
I should have been stripped.

2045
02:04:24.920 --> 02:04:27.439
But you know that that third gun was fired right

2046
02:04:27.520 --> 02:04:32.800
outside the gun room door in Turkey season of twenty

2047
02:04:32.840 --> 02:04:33.640
twenty one, correct.

2048
02:04:35.560 --> 02:04:38.279
I know that now based on what Will Loban said.

2049
02:04:38.479 --> 02:04:41.439
And you know it was also fired across the street

2050
02:04:41.560 --> 02:04:45.319
y'all shooting house around that same time, don't you.

2051
02:04:46.239 --> 02:04:49.680
You know, sir, I don't know that, but I know

2052
02:04:49.800 --> 02:04:53.720
that I would assume that it was fired at the

2053
02:04:53.760 --> 02:04:57.680
shooting range, but I have no I don't have any

2054
02:04:57.720 --> 02:05:00.560
reason to believe it was done in close proximity that time.

2055
02:05:01.239 --> 02:05:05.159
A few months go by, A couple of months go by,

2056
02:05:07.479 --> 02:05:12.680
and you get confronted about your thefts from the law firm. Correct.

2057
02:05:14.279 --> 02:05:15.600
September of twenty one.

2058
02:05:16.039 --> 02:05:19.920
And unlike June the seventh when Jeannie confronted you, this

2059
02:05:20.119 --> 02:05:21.960
time they had unasstainable evidence.

2060
02:05:22.039 --> 02:05:22.319
Correct.

2061
02:05:26.880 --> 02:05:28.279
Yeah, that's correct.

2062
02:05:28.359 --> 02:05:31.119
I mean they had no weggling out of this one.

2063
02:05:31.199 --> 02:05:31.520
Correct.

2064
02:05:32.640 --> 02:05:34.239
I didn't try to while out of this one.

2065
02:05:35.159 --> 02:05:38.159
Boy. You've been weggling before, though, right. You wiggled when

2066
02:05:38.199 --> 02:05:40.199
you stole your brother's money twice. Correct.

2067
02:05:42.760 --> 02:05:46.039
I admit almost all of these things, mister Waters.

2068
02:05:46.079 --> 02:05:48.359
But that's one of the things that I take dispute with,

2069
02:05:49.600 --> 02:05:53.000
which one that I stole that money that you're referring to.

2070
02:05:53.520 --> 02:05:55.640
You're gonna dispute that. Let's hear about that. Then tell

2071
02:05:55.680 --> 02:05:59.800
me why you dispute fashion that checked twice.

2072
02:06:00.720 --> 02:06:02.600
I don't dispute cashing that check twice.

2073
02:06:05.720 --> 02:06:08.119
What you're gonna tell this jury that you accidentally didn't

2074
02:06:08.159 --> 02:06:11.319
realize that you were supposed to be receiving some one

2075
02:06:11.399 --> 02:06:14.039
hundred and twenty five thousand dollars check on one hundred

2076
02:06:14.039 --> 02:06:23.399
and twenty however, thousand dollars check two times. What I'm

2077
02:06:23.399 --> 02:06:25.720
telling twenty thousand dollars checks do you receive.

2078
02:06:26.600 --> 02:06:31.000
I got that check and this is several months after me.

2079
02:06:31.319 --> 02:06:33.439
You can look at my finances and you can you

2080
02:06:33.520 --> 02:06:36.159
can see how I was doing. I didn't balance a

2081
02:06:36.319 --> 02:06:40.319
check book. But the fact of the matter is when

2082
02:06:40.319 --> 02:06:45.960
I got that check, I asked about it and I

2083
02:06:46.119 --> 02:06:51.119
was told mistakenly that that it was for me that

2084
02:06:51.239 --> 02:06:55.079
I had I had done participated in that year and

2085
02:06:55.159 --> 02:06:58.079
thing which I did sometimes, not often, but sometimes.

2086
02:07:00.000 --> 02:07:02.760
Apparently A new check got cashed. I cashed that check.

2087
02:07:03.159 --> 02:07:07.000
Then a year later, Yeah, where did you keep that one?

2088
02:07:07.079 --> 02:07:07.319
For you?

2089
02:07:08.239 --> 02:07:09.840
I don't know where it was. It was obviously in

2090
02:07:09.960 --> 02:07:10.439
my desk.

2091
02:07:10.520 --> 02:07:12.920
But mister Waters, so you found it in your desk?

2092
02:07:13.279 --> 02:07:14.640
No, I didn't find it.

2093
02:07:14.960 --> 02:07:16.520
Well, you say it was obviously in your desk, So

2094
02:07:16.560 --> 02:07:18.920
you remember that you remember finding it in your desk?

2095
02:07:19.319 --> 02:07:21.520
No, I remember when we did you go to.

2096
02:07:21.560 --> 02:07:24.359
Finance and say, I just found this year old check.

2097
02:07:24.720 --> 02:07:29.279
Is this right? No? No, you turned to the bag,

2098
02:07:29.399 --> 02:07:29.720
didn't you.

2099
02:07:30.079 --> 02:07:30.119
No?

2100
02:07:30.279 --> 02:07:35.800
Sure, I didn't, not allowing mister Murder to answer the question.

2101
02:07:36.039 --> 02:07:41.520
So when this came up, When this came up, that

2102
02:07:41.680 --> 02:07:42.359
check got cashed.

2103
02:07:42.479 --> 02:07:46.239
There's no way that I can have a check in

2104
02:07:46.359 --> 02:07:50.239
our law firm, with the way accounting is, and that

2105
02:07:50.399 --> 02:07:52.439
I can cash a check twice and think that.

2106
02:07:54.279 --> 02:07:55.319
That's impossible.

2107
02:07:55.800 --> 02:08:00.279
So to cash a check that's already been checked, it's

2108
02:08:00.319 --> 02:08:03.399
gonna throw There's no question it's gonna throw that off.

2109
02:08:04.039 --> 02:08:06.399
What happened is I had an we used to get

2110
02:08:06.439 --> 02:08:09.119
a rent check. We get little checks. I'd have checks,

2111
02:08:09.399 --> 02:08:13.880
and they pile up the small checks. That check got

2112
02:08:14.000 --> 02:08:16.880
mixed in and it got sent to the bank and

2113
02:08:17.000 --> 02:08:25.199
it got deposited. And that was a year after. But

2114
02:08:26.119 --> 02:08:30.119
I do dispute that I stole that money. That money,

2115
02:08:31.800 --> 02:08:32.119
all right?

2116
02:08:32.239 --> 02:08:33.880
Well, I mean you brought up so any of the

2117
02:08:33.960 --> 02:08:36.600
other money you dispute seeing No, sure you brought it up.

2118
02:08:36.680 --> 02:08:38.439
I was just telling you that that was the one

2119
02:08:38.479 --> 02:08:39.560
I disputed.

2120
02:08:40.640 --> 02:08:40.960
All right.

2121
02:08:41.479 --> 02:08:44.960
And you heard Ronnie Crosby and Martin Ball testify about that, correctly.

2122
02:08:45.600 --> 02:08:48.600
I heard Ronnie and Mark testify about what they thought

2123
02:08:48.640 --> 02:08:48.920
about it.

2124
02:08:49.000 --> 02:08:52.439
Yes, sir, testified yesterday about the side of the road.

2125
02:08:55.840 --> 02:08:56.439
Yeah, yes, sir.

2126
02:08:56.880 --> 02:08:59.840
And then you heard the testimony during the States Direct

2127
02:09:00.319 --> 02:09:02.399
about what you said on the nine to one one call.

2128
02:09:06.239 --> 02:09:08.520
You heard that, didn't I did hear that. You heard

2129
02:09:08.520 --> 02:09:10.680
the nine one one call where you said you've been

2130
02:09:10.720 --> 02:09:13.439
attacked by an unknown assailant and described him.

2131
02:09:14.159 --> 02:09:14.479
I did.

2132
02:09:15.399 --> 02:09:15.720
And you.

2133
02:09:17.359 --> 02:09:20.439
Saw the video from the ambulance where you said you'd

2134
02:09:20.479 --> 02:09:22.800
been attacked by an unknown assailant and described him.

2135
02:09:22.960 --> 02:09:23.239
I did.

2136
02:09:23.720 --> 02:09:28.600
And you heard the testimony from Ryan Kelly, where you

2137
02:09:29.880 --> 02:09:33.560
again went into detail and described this attack from an

2138
02:09:33.600 --> 02:09:34.359
unknown assailant.

2139
02:09:35.960 --> 02:09:36.279
I did.

2140
02:09:37.199 --> 02:09:41.279
And you heard the testimony about your interview on September

2141
02:09:41.359 --> 02:09:44.000
sixth with law enforcement in which you went into great

2142
02:09:44.079 --> 02:09:47.560
detail and again described this unknown assailant.

2143
02:09:49.319 --> 02:09:49.640
I did.

2144
02:09:50.119 --> 02:09:53.159
And you heard the testimony, and in fact, the image

2145
02:09:53.279 --> 02:09:56.920
was put in about how you sat down with a

2146
02:09:57.680 --> 02:10:03.479
sled sketch artist and spent a period of time with

2147
02:10:03.600 --> 02:10:08.520
her going forward and creating an image of the supposed assailants.

2148
02:10:09.199 --> 02:10:10.199
I did sit down with it.

2149
02:10:11.199 --> 02:10:13.880
I was in the hospital and they came in, sat

2150
02:10:13.920 --> 02:10:16.560
down with me, asked me a bunch of questions. I

2151
02:10:16.720 --> 02:10:18.239
answered their questions.

2152
02:10:18.399 --> 02:10:19.479
And yes, you did.

2153
02:10:19.640 --> 02:10:23.600
You sat a it came up with a composite Yes, sir.

2154
02:10:24.039 --> 02:10:27.760
Sat there and answered their questions just as effortlessly and

2155
02:10:27.920 --> 02:10:30.840
convincingly as you've been trying to do for the past

2156
02:10:30.880 --> 02:10:31.279
two days.

2157
02:10:31.359 --> 02:10:33.760
And that correct, No, sir, that's that's not true.

2158
02:10:33.880 --> 02:10:39.600
In that hospital, I was, I was. I mean I

2159
02:10:39.640 --> 02:10:42.439
couldn't sit still. I was standing up. I was walking around.

2160
02:10:42.920 --> 02:10:45.479
I was using the bathroom with the lady sitting right there.

2161
02:10:45.640 --> 02:10:50.960
I was, you know, I was two days into not

2162
02:10:51.159 --> 02:10:54.560
taking three days into not taking pills like I had been.

2163
02:10:56.520 --> 02:10:59.439
So no, it wasn't effortlessly. But I mean I told

2164
02:10:59.479 --> 02:11:01.520
them what I told them. I don't dispute that I liked.

2165
02:11:01.720 --> 02:11:03.600
It was all lies, though, is the point correct?

2166
02:11:03.720 --> 02:11:04.039
It was?

2167
02:11:04.840 --> 02:11:06.640
I mean you're saying with draws, but you still were

2168
02:11:06.920 --> 02:11:09.279
able to pull off lies in great detail.

2169
02:11:10.079 --> 02:11:13.479
I lied to them, And the lie that you told.

2170
02:11:15.920 --> 02:11:20.039
Of an unknown assailant was to try to make people

2171
02:11:20.199 --> 02:11:25.840
think that the quote real guy, bad guys were back

2172
02:11:25.880 --> 02:11:27.680
again to finish the job. Isn't that true?

2173
02:11:28.960 --> 02:11:30.039
No, so that's not true.

2174
02:11:30.119 --> 02:11:32.560
That's not the effect that you intended that story to have.

2175
02:11:34.920 --> 02:11:36.920
Did it have that effect on people that you knew?

2176
02:11:39.880 --> 02:11:42.039
I don't that the exact effect that it had.

2177
02:11:43.159 --> 02:11:44.159
I don't. I don't.

2178
02:11:44.760 --> 02:11:47.000
I don't think there's many people that believed that. No, sir,

2179
02:11:47.119 --> 02:11:50.439
I know the people that were I mean, the people

2180
02:11:50.520 --> 02:11:52.560
that were closest to me didn't believe that.

2181
02:11:54.760 --> 02:11:59.159
So accountability is that your door, mister Murdock's bad things happened,

2182
02:11:59.720 --> 02:12:01.239
don't It's not true.

2183
02:12:03.000 --> 02:12:10.800
When accountability my lifestep bad things happen. What do you

2184
02:12:10.880 --> 02:12:11.880
mean by bad things?

2185
02:12:13.800 --> 02:12:16.199
June seventh happened, September fourth happened.

2186
02:12:17.479 --> 02:12:22.159
I don't believe that June seventh happened because accountability issues

2187
02:12:22.239 --> 02:12:26.920
were at my doorstep. Now I do believe in September

2188
02:12:27.800 --> 02:12:35.960
that I tried to get a man to help me

2189
02:12:36.079 --> 02:12:42.479
kill myself because issues were at my doorstep.

2190
02:12:43.880 --> 02:12:47.319
Every time. I'm sorry. For the first time in your

2191
02:12:47.399 --> 02:12:55.439
life of privilege and prominence and wealth, when you're facing

2192
02:12:55.479 --> 02:13:00.680
accountability each time, suddenly you became a victim and everyone

2193
02:13:01.239 --> 02:13:03.399
ran to your aid, isn't that true?

2194
02:13:08.119 --> 02:13:09.520
I mean I disagree with that, but.

2195
02:13:12.960 --> 02:13:16.600
I mean what you're saying for your extraordinary provocation, isn't

2196
02:13:16.640 --> 02:13:17.479
that true? Mister murder?

2197
02:13:17.880 --> 02:13:18.680
Let me just finish this.

2198
02:13:19.239 --> 02:13:21.880
You you seem to be implying two days June the

2199
02:13:22.000 --> 02:13:27.399
seventh in September and talking about accountability issues, and I

2200
02:13:27.479 --> 02:13:29.199
mean those to me, those two.

2201
02:13:29.119 --> 02:13:34.960
Things are totally different. There were no accountability issues on

2202
02:13:35.119 --> 02:13:38.319
my doorstep on June the seventh, that's what you say,

2203
02:13:38.960 --> 02:13:42.239
and in September not what other people say. I was

2204
02:13:42.399 --> 02:13:42.880
trying to.

2205
02:13:44.520 --> 02:13:48.039
Well, No, I mean been a lot of people you

2206
02:13:48.159 --> 02:14:03.159
know in September. That wasn't design to gain me sympathy.

2207
02:14:03.880 --> 02:14:07.000
That was designed for me not to be here because

2208
02:14:07.119 --> 02:14:10.199
I didn't want my son to have to deal with

2209
02:14:11.319 --> 02:14:13.000
the wake of the things that I had done.

2210
02:14:13.640 --> 02:14:15.560
But that's not the story you told. The story that

2211
02:14:15.640 --> 02:14:18.199
came out of your mouth right away was the story

2212
02:14:18.279 --> 02:14:21.000
of you getting attacked by some unknown ceiling while you

2213
02:14:21.039 --> 02:14:23.439
were trying to change a tire and run flats.

2214
02:14:23.840 --> 02:14:26.000
Well, that's just the story that you told. That is

2215
02:14:26.079 --> 02:14:28.560
the story I told. But that's because.

2216
02:14:29.680 --> 02:14:33.279
The man who shot me did not shoot me that

2217
02:14:33.520 --> 02:14:36.920
day as I intended, and I had to have a

2218
02:14:37.000 --> 02:14:38.680
story as to how I got shot.

2219
02:14:38.760 --> 02:14:39.359
So I lied.

2220
02:14:39.840 --> 02:14:42.439
So you lied, And you're saying that people in your

2221
02:14:42.520 --> 02:14:48.079
family and your friends didn't instantly believe that whoever these

2222
02:14:48.199 --> 02:14:51.399
twelve year old marauders were, were back to finish the job.

2223
02:14:53.399 --> 02:14:54.720
You keep using.

2224
02:14:54.800 --> 02:14:57.000
It happen just for a few hours after you had

2225
02:14:57.000 --> 02:14:58.520
been confronted by Chris Wilson.

2226
02:15:00.119 --> 02:15:03.000
I think probably some people may have thought that when

2227
02:15:03.079 --> 02:15:08.239
it first happened, but I think, like Randy Ronnie Mark,

2228
02:15:08.439 --> 02:15:09.279
those guys.

2229
02:15:09.079 --> 02:15:11.319
I think they knew very quickly that.

2230
02:15:13.680 --> 02:15:14.199
This was not.

2231
02:15:18.319 --> 02:15:18.359
That.

2232
02:15:18.520 --> 02:15:20.600
I think they knew this was something that i'd done.

2233
02:15:22.159 --> 02:15:24.960
Shame for you. I asked this before. But shame for

2234
02:15:25.079 --> 02:15:28.760
you is an extraordinary provocation, isn't it.

2235
02:15:28.800 --> 02:15:29.439
Mister Murnat?

2236
02:15:31.399 --> 02:15:36.680
Shame for me is an extraordinary provocation. I don't like

2237
02:15:36.800 --> 02:15:37.439
to be shamed.

2238
02:15:37.800 --> 02:15:43.079
The prospect of humiliating the legacy is an extraordinary provocation

2239
02:15:43.199 --> 02:15:44.319
to you, isn't it, mister Murdon?

2240
02:15:44.840 --> 02:15:47.000
What do you mean by an extraordinary provocation?

2241
02:15:47.960 --> 02:15:50.800
It affects you deeply. It's your biggest concern, is it not.

2242
02:15:51.319 --> 02:15:52.840
No, that's not my biggest concern.

2243
02:15:55.159 --> 02:15:56.560
You're a middle aged man like me.

2244
02:15:57.199 --> 02:16:00.640
I'm fifty four years old. I'm not sure you look

2245
02:16:00.720 --> 02:16:01.920
like you're in better shape than me.

2246
02:16:02.199 --> 02:16:08.760
So no, No, that was actually a couple of years

2247
02:16:08.800 --> 02:16:10.520
behind you in law school. But we never knew each other,

2248
02:16:10.600 --> 02:16:10.840
did we.

2249
02:16:12.359 --> 02:16:13.760
I never knew you. Know, sir.

2250
02:16:17.359 --> 02:16:23.000
Had a very successful career up until this point.

2251
02:16:24.800 --> 02:16:28.119
A question, and the answer to that is no, mister Waters,

2252
02:16:28.119 --> 02:16:30.279
I was an addict for more than twenty years.

2253
02:16:31.399 --> 02:16:34.600
All right, so out, So making millions of dollars over

2254
02:16:34.680 --> 02:16:37.559
over a decade is not having a successful career. Is

2255
02:16:37.600 --> 02:16:38.559
that what you're gonna tell the jury?

2256
02:16:38.879 --> 02:16:42.799
No, that's not a successful career. When you Okay, well,

2257
02:16:42.879 --> 02:16:45.159
let me put up my let me just all right,

2258
02:16:45.159 --> 02:16:45.479
go ahead.

2259
02:16:49.239 --> 02:16:52.319
You know it may have been what you perceive as

2260
02:16:52.399 --> 02:16:55.959
a successful career, but you know I was the one

2261
02:16:56.040 --> 02:16:56.879
who was fighting that.

2262
02:17:01.040 --> 02:17:06.840
You don't have a very high self esteem when you're

2263
02:17:06.840 --> 02:17:15.680
an addict, So I don't deem myself of success.

2264
02:17:16.239 --> 02:17:19.559
Would you agree that, at least outwardly, you're perceived as successful.

2265
02:17:20.600 --> 02:17:23.760
I made. I made, I made a bunch of money,

2266
02:17:23.799 --> 02:17:25.799
if that's what you're wanting to get at.

2267
02:17:26.319 --> 02:17:28.719
No, I'm not actually asking about the perception you were

2268
02:17:28.799 --> 02:17:30.520
perceived as a prominent.

2269
02:17:30.280 --> 02:17:34.000
I tried to be lawyer. How I was perceived lawyer?

2270
02:17:34.079 --> 02:17:38.000
I sure tried to be lived a life of possessing authority.

2271
02:17:39.959 --> 02:17:43.959
Possessing authority, yeah, we saw the badges you just admitted

2272
02:17:44.040 --> 02:17:45.799
of your prominence in the legal community.

2273
02:17:46.200 --> 02:17:48.879
I don't think that I lived a life of possessing authority.

2274
02:17:48.920 --> 02:17:50.520
I never saw myself as that way.

2275
02:17:52.879 --> 02:17:55.120
If you don't think you lived a life of privilege.

2276
02:17:55.639 --> 02:17:57.159
I think I was very privileged.

2277
02:18:02.479 --> 02:18:06.200
But as we moved to June of twenty twenty one,

2278
02:18:06.319 --> 02:18:12.120
you were suffering from a drug addiction. Absolutely, your father

2279
02:18:12.319 --> 02:18:16.840
was termly ill. When I mean as we moved to

2280
02:18:16.920 --> 02:18:17.920
June of twenty twenty one.

2281
02:18:18.319 --> 02:18:21.520
No, sir, he was very ill. He was very ill,

2282
02:18:26.319 --> 02:18:26.920
and you were.

2283
02:18:28.399 --> 02:18:32.159
Coming to a point a financial crisis.

2284
02:18:33.440 --> 02:18:33.799
I was.

2285
02:18:35.280 --> 02:18:40.280
Having financial issues like I'd had many times in the past.

2286
02:18:43.000 --> 02:18:45.159
Mister Murdock, are you a family annihilator?

2287
02:18:47.200 --> 02:18:51.840
A family annihilator you mean like, did I shoot my

2288
02:18:51.959 --> 02:18:52.799
wife and my son?

2289
02:18:53.040 --> 02:18:53.639
Yes? No.

2290
02:18:57.239 --> 02:19:01.040
I would never hurt Maggie Murder, would never hurt Paul

2291
02:19:01.159 --> 02:19:16.600
Murder under any circumstances. Say that, Excuse me say that.

2292
02:19:16.840 --> 02:19:18.760
But you lied to Maggie, didn't you.

2293
02:19:21.000 --> 02:19:22.000
I did lie to Maggie.

2294
02:19:22.280 --> 02:19:23.280
You lied to Paul.

2295
02:19:24.719 --> 02:19:29.520
Sometimes. You lied to your father, I'm sure I did.

2296
02:19:29.600 --> 02:19:30.200
At some point.

2297
02:19:30.799 --> 02:19:32.280
Did you tell him all the stuff you had been

2298
02:19:32.360 --> 02:19:33.799
up to over the years before he died?

2299
02:19:34.959 --> 02:19:35.879
No, I didn't tell him.

2300
02:19:37.319 --> 02:19:38.600
July to your brothers.

2301
02:19:41.120 --> 02:19:45.360
About financial things. Yes, I would have lied to Randy

2302
02:19:45.399 --> 02:19:46.719
at some point, I'm sure.

2303
02:19:47.440 --> 02:19:50.280
July to him about the last time you saw your

2304
02:19:51.159 --> 02:19:56.120
wife and son alive. Did j a lot of their wives?

2305
02:19:58.079 --> 02:19:58.879
I'm sure I did.

2306
02:20:00.040 --> 02:20:05.760
Mary Procter, yes, July to Bark Croctor, Yes. Did you

2307
02:20:05.879 --> 02:20:07.000
lie to the brand Stutters?

2308
02:20:07.399 --> 02:20:07.600
Yes?

2309
02:20:08.000 --> 02:20:09.840
Did you lie to your best friend Chris Wilson?

2310
02:20:11.319 --> 02:20:11.760
Probably?

2311
02:20:14.399 --> 02:20:17.799
Did you lie to your other friend, Baron Bullwear when

2312
02:20:17.799 --> 02:20:18.600
you took his money.

2313
02:20:20.120 --> 02:20:23.680
No, sir, No, I didn't lie like I told you.

2314
02:20:23.799 --> 02:20:25.920
I didn't lie directly to him. I lied to him

2315
02:20:25.959 --> 02:20:28.920
by a mission like like we talked about it me

2316
02:20:29.040 --> 02:20:29.280
he was.

2317
02:20:32.239 --> 02:20:34.120
I didn't talk to him. I didn't see him at

2318
02:20:34.159 --> 02:20:34.520
that time.

2319
02:20:35.120 --> 02:20:38.639
Did you a lot to your law partners? I did

2320
02:20:40.120 --> 02:20:44.159
July to him about the kennels, some of them. July

2321
02:20:44.280 --> 02:20:45.120
to Mark Ball.

2322
02:20:46.879 --> 02:20:47.000
Uh.

2323
02:20:47.600 --> 02:20:49.920
Yeah, I believe based on what Mark said, I believe I.

2324
02:20:49.959 --> 02:20:52.719
Did July to Ronnie Crosby. According to what he said,

2325
02:20:52.719 --> 02:20:55.000
I believe I did July to Johnny Parker.

2326
02:20:57.399 --> 02:21:00.719
I don't believe I ever discussed that with john Did you.

2327
02:21:00.879 --> 02:21:03.000
Tell him about the finances when you borrowed that money

2328
02:21:03.040 --> 02:21:04.159
in July of twenty twenty one?

2329
02:21:07.600 --> 02:21:09.959
I don't know if I lied to him about.

2330
02:21:13.159 --> 02:21:16.440
And I don't Johnny. I don't think Johnny asked me.

2331
02:21:16.479 --> 02:21:18.399
I don't think I had to lie to Johnny about that.

2332
02:21:18.639 --> 02:21:19.719
So I don't know.

2333
02:21:22.319 --> 02:21:24.520
Did you, Well, you didn't certainly didn't disclose to him

2334
02:21:24.559 --> 02:21:26.079
the truth when you borrowed that two hundred and fifty

2335
02:21:26.120 --> 02:21:26.879
thousand dollars.

2336
02:21:26.719 --> 02:21:26.920
Did you.

2337
02:21:27.040 --> 02:21:28.479
I did not tell him what I was going to

2338
02:21:28.600 --> 02:21:28.920
use it for.

2339
02:21:29.000 --> 02:21:31.360
I mean, didn't we have to say before that not

2340
02:21:31.479 --> 02:21:33.360
telling the whole truth was the same as telling the lie.

2341
02:21:34.719 --> 02:21:35.200
Sure it is.

2342
02:21:36.040 --> 02:21:37.920
You don't think that's a lie, though I don't.

2343
02:21:38.440 --> 02:21:40.879
I'm just saying, mister Woods, I'm not taking issue with that.

2344
02:21:41.079 --> 02:21:42.120
But I don't even know that.

2345
02:21:42.200 --> 02:21:44.639
Johnny and I, I mean, Johnny had loaned me money

2346
02:21:44.760 --> 02:21:47.639
numerous times. It wasn't any long sit down discussion where

2347
02:21:47.680 --> 02:21:50.040
Johnny wanted to know exactly what I was doing with it.

2348
02:21:50.559 --> 02:21:53.479
That conversation would have been I needed it. Johnny was

2349
02:21:53.600 --> 02:21:55.520
always willing to help me, and that would have been

2350
02:21:55.600 --> 02:22:00.360
the conversation. So on that specific event that I lie

2351
02:22:00.399 --> 02:22:01.239
to him, I don't know.

2352
02:22:01.559 --> 02:22:03.479
Yeah, he ended up being out four hundred seventy seven

2353
02:22:03.520 --> 02:22:05.559
thousand dollars, didn't he He ended up being out a

2354
02:22:05.639 --> 02:22:11.000
lot of money, and thank you for your qualifications as

2355
02:22:11.079 --> 02:22:18.440
to that. Did July to Leek Coke, I don't know.

2356
02:22:19.079 --> 02:22:20.920
I don't know if Lee Cope was around when I

2357
02:22:21.000 --> 02:22:21.639
said that or not.

2358
02:22:22.200 --> 02:22:24.680
Juli to Danny Henderson, I did a lot of Danny.

2359
02:22:25.120 --> 02:22:26.760
Jul to Jenny secondary.

2360
02:22:28.319 --> 02:22:31.879
I don't about finances, Yes, I did.

2361
02:22:32.280 --> 02:22:34.120
You ever didn't ever talk to her about the kennels.

2362
02:22:35.159 --> 02:22:36.280
No, I wouldn't think so.

2363
02:22:36.920 --> 02:22:38.159
July to in that Grizswold.

2364
02:22:39.079 --> 02:22:39.440
I did.

2365
02:22:39.959 --> 02:22:44.799
Juli of Christy Jerald, your other secretary for paralegal.

2366
02:22:45.239 --> 02:22:47.159
I don't believe she and I discussed. I would have

2367
02:22:47.280 --> 02:22:48.360
at some point, I'm sure.

2368
02:22:50.399 --> 02:22:51.479
JULYI to Michael Gunning.

2369
02:22:54.959 --> 02:22:57.639
I'm sure I did at some point, but mean, Michael

2370
02:22:57.719 --> 02:23:00.799
wasn't involved in any of this, so I don't know

2371
02:23:00.959 --> 02:23:03.319
that any of this ever came up with Michael.

2372
02:23:04.559 --> 02:23:06.639
July to your clients. Did you lie to Pamela Pinkney,

2373
02:23:07.120 --> 02:23:08.760
I did Natasha Thomas.

2374
02:23:10.559 --> 02:23:12.559
I don't know that I dealt with Natasha, but I

2375
02:23:12.680 --> 02:23:18.040
certainly lied about that. Again, I don't know that I

2376
02:23:18.120 --> 02:23:20.680
talked to Keene, but I certainly lied about that.

2377
02:23:21.280 --> 02:23:24.200
Arthur Badger I did the Pliler Girl.

2378
02:23:26.719 --> 02:23:29.639
That's I'm not sure that I talked specifically to them,

2379
02:23:29.680 --> 02:23:30.879
but I lied about that.

2380
02:23:31.879 --> 02:23:37.879
Dion Martin, I lied to Dion Johnny Bush Yes, Manuel Christiani.

2381
02:23:41.639 --> 02:23:44.440
I didn't have any conversations with him, but I certainly

2382
02:23:44.520 --> 02:23:45.079
lied about it.

2383
02:23:45.559 --> 02:23:55.600
Jamie Rischer yes, Randy Drawdy yes, Jordan Jenks yes, Mary

2384
02:23:55.680 --> 02:24:02.520
Duncan yes, Adrianna Hay yes, Angel Gary.

2385
02:24:04.760 --> 02:24:04.959
Yes.

2386
02:24:05.520 --> 02:24:15.520
Christopher Anderson, Yes, the least Mallory, yes, Thomas Moore. No,

2387
02:24:17.280 --> 02:24:20.559
you never lied to him. You just took his money.

2388
02:24:20.600 --> 02:24:22.239
He never had actually a lot of his faces what

2389
02:24:22.319 --> 02:24:22.719
you're saying.

2390
02:24:25.120 --> 02:24:27.159
He and I never had a conversation. But I did

2391
02:24:27.239 --> 02:24:29.520
take that I did take those that money.

2392
02:24:30.239 --> 02:24:32.319
Did you lie to Tony Saderfield? Just a couple of

2393
02:24:32.360 --> 02:24:40.040
months before June seventh, we saw the text. Do you

2394
02:24:40.079 --> 02:24:40.760
want me to get it out?

2395
02:24:42.959 --> 02:24:45.200
Just remind me. There's been a lot. Just remind me

2396
02:24:45.280 --> 02:24:45.680
what it was.

2397
02:24:48.000 --> 02:24:50.559
Let me show you what's been marked four sixty three.

2398
02:24:51.319 --> 02:24:52.239
Then I don't remember that.

2399
02:24:52.319 --> 02:24:54.879
It was that date too, that was in April twenty

2400
02:24:54.920 --> 02:24:58.360
twenty one. Was that right where you texted him and

2401
02:24:58.639 --> 02:25:01.040
tell him how hard you're working on the case, when

2402
02:25:01.040 --> 02:25:03.920
in fact you had stolen millions of dollars from him?

2403
02:25:05.959 --> 02:25:08.399
Had any Ciderfield who got up on this stand and

2404
02:25:08.479 --> 02:25:10.280
told the jury about that?

2405
02:25:10.760 --> 02:25:18.920
I texted him on April twelveth so five weeks before.

2406
02:25:21.040 --> 02:25:25.760
Jane seven, told him everything was okay, you're working hard, right,

2407
02:25:28.799 --> 02:25:29.920
it's a complex case.

2408
02:25:34.799 --> 02:25:36.520
Yeah, I told him I was working on the case.

2409
02:25:39.719 --> 02:25:42.799
He was the son of your longtime housekeeper, Gloria.

2410
02:25:46.399 --> 02:25:48.280
I'm sorry he was the son of your.

2411
02:25:48.239 --> 02:25:52.200
Longtime housekeeper, Gloria, who had served your family for many years.

2412
02:25:52.719 --> 02:25:56.360
That's correct, And you stole millions from those boys.

2413
02:25:58.959 --> 02:25:59.959
I stole those bunks.

2414
02:26:00.280 --> 02:26:02.719
And he and his family had started asking questions as

2415
02:26:02.799 --> 02:26:03.840
we moved to June seventh.

2416
02:26:04.159 --> 02:26:10.200
Did not happen, No, I mean there wasn't any rising

2417
02:26:10.280 --> 02:26:17.280
them asking questions, No, sir. I mean he periodically checked

2418
02:26:17.280 --> 02:26:21.719
in and asked me questions. But you know it had

2419
02:26:21.799 --> 02:26:29.319
come out long before this. I believe in the Island

2420
02:26:29.399 --> 02:26:34.600
packet that there had been a settlement of five hundred

2421
02:26:34.639 --> 02:26:39.280
thousand dollars, But I mean that had been months and months,

2422
02:26:39.479 --> 02:26:47.399
if I'm not mistaken, And so I didn't notice any

2423
02:26:48.680 --> 02:26:52.000
uptick in Tony asking questions. And I don't believe that

2424
02:26:52.159 --> 02:26:56.639
there was any uptick in Tony asking questions before June

2425
02:26:56.680 --> 02:26:57.159
the seventh.

2426
02:26:59.399 --> 02:27:02.079
So you just just, gratuitously, out of the blues, decided

2427
02:27:02.120 --> 02:27:06.040
to lie to him and send that text. Or were

2428
02:27:06.040 --> 02:27:08.760
there things going on externally that caused you to need

2429
02:27:08.799 --> 02:27:12.399
to head him off at the past before further questions

2430
02:27:12.440 --> 02:27:14.360
started to be asked about money. You couldn't make that

2431
02:27:14.760 --> 02:27:15.559
at back point He's on.

2432
02:27:16.440 --> 02:27:20.280
No, I don't think there was anything I mean on

2433
02:27:20.440 --> 02:27:26.040
April twenty. First, I don't know what external factors you

2434
02:27:26.200 --> 02:27:26.799
talking about.

2435
02:27:28.680 --> 02:27:30.000
Do you want to explain that one anymore?

2436
02:27:33.079 --> 02:27:36.360
Explain what whatever you want? I just want to answer

2437
02:27:36.360 --> 02:27:36.799
you question.

2438
02:27:36.959 --> 02:27:40.959
Mister Waters lied to everyone about the side of the

2439
02:27:41.079 --> 02:27:44.000
road that people that came to stopped to help in

2440
02:27:44.040 --> 02:27:47.719
the ambulance folks and the nine to one one and

2441
02:27:47.840 --> 02:27:51.639
Ryan Kelly and the composite sketch artists and all of them. Correct.

2442
02:27:53.239 --> 02:27:55.120
I lied to a lot of people about that.

2443
02:28:00.120 --> 02:28:04.799
You know why people lie, mister Murdock, because they know

2444
02:28:04.879 --> 02:28:07.040
they've done something wrong. For the most time, I do,

2445
02:28:09.319 --> 02:28:11.799
and you've been able to lie quickly and easily and

2446
02:28:11.920 --> 02:28:14.879
convincingly if you think it'll save your skin for well

2447
02:28:14.959 --> 02:28:18.559
over a decade. Isn't that true?

2448
02:28:20.319 --> 02:28:27.319
I have lied well over a decade, and you want

2449
02:28:27.360 --> 02:28:28.200
this jury.

2450
02:28:30.680 --> 02:28:38.799
To believe a story manufactured to fit the evidence that

2451
02:28:39.000 --> 02:28:45.159
you brought forth just yesterday after hearing this trial's worth

2452
02:28:45.200 --> 02:28:57.680
of testimony. No, sir, that's not correct, mister Murdock. We

2453
02:28:57.760 --> 02:28:59.920
went through this for a while. But you remember the

2454
02:29:00.040 --> 02:29:03.520
beginning of your testimony, I asked you whether or not

2455
02:29:03.680 --> 02:29:10.799
you agreed that trying to explain your presence on the

2456
02:29:10.879 --> 02:29:13.799
kennel video was the most important part of your testimony

2457
02:29:13.879 --> 02:29:16.920
before this jury? You remember that and you said, oh,

2458
02:29:17.079 --> 02:29:18.959
not the most important. I said it was at least important.

2459
02:29:19.000 --> 02:29:20.440
You recall that from yesterday.

2460
02:29:21.239 --> 02:29:23.120
I recall you asking those questions, just sir.

2461
02:29:23.680 --> 02:29:25.079
And you agree it's important, don't you.

2462
02:29:26.559 --> 02:29:30.399
I agree that as an important component, But I think

2463
02:29:30.440 --> 02:29:32.079
there's a lot of important components.

2464
02:29:33.399 --> 02:29:41.920
And you testified yesterday and during cross yesterday and cross today.

2465
02:29:43.719 --> 02:29:46.959
It's kind of evolved on the fact of the factors

2466
02:29:47.000 --> 02:29:50.440
that led you to decide to lie at some point

2467
02:29:50.680 --> 02:29:54.200
during that interview with David Owen. Correct.

2468
02:29:55.399 --> 02:29:57.879
I disagree with that, and I don't think those factors

2469
02:29:57.920 --> 02:30:01.040
have evolved. I mean, you've asked some most specific questions,

2470
02:30:01.120 --> 02:30:04.559
but those factors are still the same factors. You may

2471
02:30:04.639 --> 02:30:07.520
have asked questions and gained a little more detail, but

2472
02:30:07.639 --> 02:30:09.000
those factors haven't changed.

2473
02:30:09.120 --> 02:30:11.319
But it was the dope paranoia. It was the fact

2474
02:30:11.360 --> 02:30:14.319
that the deputy took your GSR. It was the fact

2475
02:30:14.360 --> 02:30:16.920
that your law partners and Greg Alexander and the sheriff

2476
02:30:17.000 --> 02:30:19.360
were telling you you needed to have a lawyer before

2477
02:30:19.360 --> 02:30:22.559
we talked to police. It was a factor that you

2478
02:30:22.680 --> 02:30:24.239
got in the car with Dave Owen and thought he

2479
02:30:24.399 --> 02:30:27.840
was somebody else from some case ten years ago. Correct.

2480
02:30:30.520 --> 02:30:34.799
That believing David Owens was the person involved.

2481
02:30:36.360 --> 02:30:39.680
In the case that I talked about was one of

2482
02:30:39.760 --> 02:30:42.479
the factors that caused me to distrust slid Right.

2483
02:30:42.559 --> 02:30:45.079
And then also you said that they started asking you

2484
02:30:45.200 --> 02:30:48.360
about in that first interview about your relationship with Maggie

2485
02:30:48.399 --> 02:30:50.719
and Paul, and that's one thing you mentioned as well.

2486
02:30:50.799 --> 02:30:54.120
Correct, And that was certainly something that contributed to me

2487
02:30:54.280 --> 02:30:55.440
having paranoid thinking.

2488
02:30:57.799 --> 02:31:01.040
Playing the Daniel Green bodycom video twenty twenty six.

2489
02:31:04.760 --> 02:31:06.680
Put a couple of feels.

2490
02:31:08.680 --> 02:31:11.520
About I'm gonna chick there there.

2491
02:31:13.520 --> 02:31:14.479
They are paid on it.

2492
02:31:15.559 --> 02:31:37.360
Yes, said, that's that's what it looks, right, you had.

2493
02:31:37.239 --> 02:31:47.040
A policy hair here that mm hmm, there's no grub Okay.

2494
02:31:50.719 --> 02:31:52.360
When was the last time you were here with them

2495
02:31:53.280 --> 02:31:54.559
or talk to them or anything like that?

2496
02:31:58.479 --> 02:32:03.479
Mm hmmm. It was earlier tonight. H.

2497
02:32:04.360 --> 02:32:07.040
I don't know the exact time, but I left.

2498
02:32:07.079 --> 02:32:08.319
I was struggling going an hour and.

2499
02:32:08.319 --> 02:32:10.360
A half of my mom's and I saw them about

2500
02:32:10.399 --> 02:32:11.680
forty five minutes before that.

2501
02:32:16.840 --> 02:32:22.079
And it'll scharge of dream correct, Yeah, I'm Sergey dreaming

2502
02:32:22.239 --> 02:32:25.760
And at that point in time, Sled was not there.

2503
02:32:27.239 --> 02:32:31.719
No one had gotten GSR from you, Your law partners

2504
02:32:32.120 --> 02:32:33.479
or Sheriff Hill were not there.

2505
02:32:34.399 --> 02:32:34.959
It's correct.

2506
02:32:35.520 --> 02:32:37.639
No one had asked you about your relationships.

2507
02:32:39.000 --> 02:32:41.799
David Owen was not there, It's correct.

2508
02:32:42.000 --> 02:32:44.760
But just still told the same lie. And all those

2509
02:32:44.879 --> 02:32:48.079
reasons that you just gave this jury about the most

2510
02:32:48.120 --> 02:32:52.600
important part of your testimony was a lie to. Isn't

2511
02:32:52.639 --> 02:32:53.680
that true, mister Murdock.

2512
02:32:54.280 --> 02:32:56.200
I disagree with that nothing further.

2513
02:32:57.920 --> 02:33:03.040
I fucking love that. What a way to end your

2514
02:33:03.280 --> 02:33:07.680
questioning now. At this point, the defense were buttles and

2515
02:33:07.760 --> 02:33:10.040
they focus on a couple of things with regard to

2516
02:33:10.120 --> 02:33:14.200
Alex movements and the roadside shooting and what Alex intent was.

2517
02:33:15.200 --> 02:33:15.760
And here's that.

2518
02:33:17.559 --> 02:33:23.799
This is in evidence, and this is Agent Rudowski's a

2519
02:33:24.120 --> 02:33:30.280
timeline that says Maggie Murdoch's phone iPhone shows fifty nine

2520
02:33:30.319 --> 02:33:33.959
steps traveled between eight fifty three fifteen and eight fifty

2521
02:33:34.520 --> 02:33:38.319
five thirty two. Were you walking with Maggie Murdoch's phone

2522
02:33:38.440 --> 02:33:39.280
during that period of time.

2523
02:33:39.639 --> 02:33:42.239
I wasn't welcome with Maggie's phone anytime that night.

2524
02:33:43.959 --> 02:33:47.040
And if you'll look at Agent Rudowski's entries as their

2525
02:33:48.399 --> 02:33:53.639
entry of her phone showing steps during any time between

2526
02:33:54.639 --> 02:33:57.959
nine o two and nine oh six, You see any

2527
02:33:58.040 --> 02:34:00.760
on this page from eight to fifty three read to

2528
02:34:00.840 --> 02:34:03.879
eight fifty five. No, sir, If you'll turn the next page,

2529
02:34:06.040 --> 02:34:13.840
page forty six, going down to your steps, is there

2530
02:34:13.879 --> 02:34:22.760
any recording of phone steps, phone recording steps recording to

2531
02:34:22.879 --> 02:34:25.479
the data we now have from Maggie's phone at any

2532
02:34:25.520 --> 02:34:27.399
point in time up to nine oh.

2533
02:34:27.360 --> 02:34:28.760
Two, No, sir.

2534
02:34:34.239 --> 02:34:41.040
And had you repeatedly asked Slid to get the data

2535
02:34:42.120 --> 02:34:46.239
from the on star from the cell phones to evaluate

2536
02:34:46.360 --> 02:34:49.239
whether your phone and maggie phone Maggie's phone were ever

2537
02:34:49.399 --> 02:34:52.040
moving at the same time, made that multiple requests.

2538
02:34:52.200 --> 02:34:56.600
I repeatedly asked David Owens about that information.

2539
02:35:00.000 --> 02:35:03.479
When you asked that question, You're aware that Maggie's phone

2540
02:35:03.479 --> 02:35:06.559
had been located, you know, down the road a mile

2541
02:35:07.120 --> 02:35:09.159
or I mean half a mile or more? Is that right?

2542
02:35:09.959 --> 02:35:11.879
Yeah? I knew where her phone had been located.

2543
02:35:12.399 --> 02:35:14.399
And why was it Why was it important to you

2544
02:35:14.559 --> 02:35:15.479
to get that information?

2545
02:35:16.799 --> 02:35:23.319
Because I knew that whoever had done this to them

2546
02:35:24.559 --> 02:35:29.719
had Maggie's phone, and I knew that my phone.

2547
02:35:31.680 --> 02:35:41.680
And Maggie's phone in my car were never together at

2548
02:35:41.719 --> 02:35:45.840
any point in time. Sure, now you have.

2549
02:35:48.159 --> 02:35:52.879
Given inaccurate times and many statements to law enforcement in

2550
02:35:52.959 --> 02:35:58.840
this case, have you not? I did, and we were

2551
02:35:58.840 --> 02:36:01.840
reviewed some of those in your examination. I mean one

2552
02:36:02.079 --> 02:36:06.840
was Paul getting to Moselle around five pm? Do you

2553
02:36:06.879 --> 02:36:07.280
remember that?

2554
02:36:08.120 --> 02:36:08.319
I do?

2555
02:36:08.639 --> 02:36:11.520
Were you lying to Agent Owen? Is there anybody when

2556
02:36:11.520 --> 02:36:13.600
you said Paul got there at five pm?

2557
02:36:15.000 --> 02:36:15.040
No?

2558
02:36:15.440 --> 02:36:17.680
I wasn't lying to them. I mean I thought that

2559
02:36:17.840 --> 02:36:18.360
at the time.

2560
02:36:19.319 --> 02:36:19.920
And when you.

2561
02:36:21.440 --> 02:36:23.680
Most of the times, when a lot of the times

2562
02:36:23.719 --> 02:36:26.760
when I gave times, I qualified them and say, but

2563
02:36:27.360 --> 02:36:28.399
you know you can look at this.

2564
02:36:29.000 --> 02:36:32.760
I pointed them to my office, to the car log

2565
02:36:32.920 --> 02:36:35.280
like to the key card like we talked about on

2566
02:36:35.520 --> 02:36:36.959
my phone, or my own star.

2567
02:36:38.639 --> 02:36:39.120
And when you.

2568
02:36:42.680 --> 02:36:44.399
Told the agents that you thought you got to the

2569
02:36:44.479 --> 02:36:47.719
office eight thirty nine o'clock on that morning of June seventh,

2570
02:36:48.000 --> 02:36:48.879
were you wrong? Right?

2571
02:36:49.840 --> 02:36:50.399
I was wrong?

2572
02:36:51.000 --> 02:36:51.600
Were you lying?

2573
02:36:52.760 --> 02:36:52.799
No?

2574
02:36:52.959 --> 02:36:53.639
I wasn't lying.

2575
02:36:57.719 --> 02:37:04.159
And when Deputy Green drove up and first you had

2576
02:37:04.200 --> 02:37:06.840
to first encounter with him, I believe you told him

2577
02:37:06.840 --> 02:37:10.959
that you had been gone to your mom's house for

2578
02:37:11.079 --> 02:37:12.559
an hour and hour and a half.

2579
02:37:14.319 --> 02:37:16.280
Is that right? We just heard it.

2580
02:37:20.239 --> 02:37:23.319
The last one, Yes, sir, Yeah, hour and a half.

2581
02:37:23.440 --> 02:37:25.239
I think that is what I taught him.

2582
02:37:25.200 --> 02:37:29.840
Hour and a half, and that the last time you

2583
02:37:29.959 --> 02:37:33.159
saw Maggie and Paul was forty five minutes before that.

2584
02:37:34.799 --> 02:37:35.760
Yeah, that's what I said.

2585
02:37:36.639 --> 02:37:40.719
And when you spoke to Agent Green, I mean, Deputy Green,

2586
02:37:40.840 --> 02:37:43.760
it was about I think the record show they didn't

2587
02:37:43.799 --> 02:37:46.879
arrive on the scene until ten twenty two or something

2588
02:37:46.959 --> 02:37:47.159
like that.

2589
02:37:47.319 --> 02:37:47.680
Is that right?

2590
02:37:49.159 --> 02:37:51.120
That sounds right? And I mean I think that's what

2591
02:37:51.280 --> 02:37:53.600
the record show. That sounds right.

2592
02:37:55.360 --> 02:37:59.120
And that were you lying to agent excuse me, Deputy

2593
02:37:59.200 --> 02:38:02.360
Green with when you told him what time how long

2594
02:38:02.440 --> 02:38:04.959
you thought you'd been at your mother's and the last

2595
02:38:05.000 --> 02:38:06.120
time you saw Maggie and Paul.

2596
02:38:06.639 --> 02:38:08.159
No, sir, I wasn't lying to him.

2597
02:38:12.440 --> 02:38:14.319
Were you trying to mislead him in any way?

2598
02:38:15.840 --> 02:38:18.000
No, sir, not when mister Green got there.

2599
02:38:20.360 --> 02:38:24.799
Now, you've admitted the first few questions that I ask

2600
02:38:24.920 --> 02:38:29.520
you yesterday and multiple times today, that that that you

2601
02:38:29.719 --> 02:38:33.239
lied to Agent Owen and Dephanie Rutland and Agent Owen

2602
02:38:33.280 --> 02:38:40.559
and Agent Croft and on a couple occasions about your

2603
02:38:40.559 --> 02:38:41.840
whereabouts following dinner.

2604
02:38:42.239 --> 02:38:42.559
Correct.

2605
02:38:42.920 --> 02:38:46.760
I did light to them as we discussed and impeatedly.

2606
02:38:46.719 --> 02:38:54.239
And you've explained that it was just addiction, opioid induced

2607
02:38:55.520 --> 02:38:57.399
parent paranoia just couldn't shake.

2608
02:38:58.479 --> 02:38:58.920
Is that right?

2609
02:38:59.559 --> 02:38:59.920
That's right?

2610
02:39:00.319 --> 02:39:03.840
You know, like I said, there's certain things anything make

2611
02:39:03.920 --> 02:39:06.120
you paranoid. But I could get over it really quickly.

2612
02:39:06.319 --> 02:39:09.159
But that night I did it and you had a

2613
02:39:09.360 --> 02:39:10.559
bag of pills in your pocket?

2614
02:39:10.639 --> 02:39:10.959
Did you not?

2615
02:39:11.639 --> 02:39:11.959
I did?

2616
02:39:14.280 --> 02:39:22.079
And when you got down to the kennels, We're not

2617
02:39:22.120 --> 02:39:26.639
going to repeat all that, but did you ever see

2618
02:39:26.719 --> 02:39:29.879
anybody down there? Anybody else?

2619
02:39:31.479 --> 02:39:34.680
Now, there was nobody. There wasn't anybody down there when

2620
02:39:34.719 --> 02:39:35.239
I was there.

2621
02:39:36.479 --> 02:39:41.680
And did you believe that the information, whether you were

2622
02:39:41.719 --> 02:39:45.879
there or not there, would advance their investigation.

2623
02:39:45.479 --> 02:39:46.200
An any way?

2624
02:39:46.879 --> 02:39:46.920
No?

2625
02:39:47.280 --> 02:39:49.040
I didn't. I didn't think that.

2626
02:39:50.200 --> 02:39:51.159
And why didn't you think that?

2627
02:39:52.920 --> 02:39:56.840
Because they were fine in doing good when I left there.

2628
02:39:59.200 --> 02:40:00.840
On the on on one call.

2629
02:40:01.319 --> 02:40:01.440
Uh.

2630
02:40:03.680 --> 02:40:05.879
Do you remember that the call first went to Hampton?

2631
02:40:07.360 --> 02:40:10.559
I don't remember that, but I know that now.

2632
02:40:11.479 --> 02:40:13.559
And and and what we played here in the court

2633
02:40:13.559 --> 02:40:15.959
in your testimony was the Callidon County handoff.

2634
02:40:16.840 --> 02:40:17.520
Do you recall that.

2635
02:40:19.479 --> 02:40:20.280
I do recall that.

2636
02:40:22.120 --> 02:40:24.639
I think at some point the part in Hampton might

2637
02:40:24.719 --> 02:40:27.079
have gotten played too, didn't it, but I know the

2638
02:40:27.159 --> 02:40:29.120
main part was to call them part.

2639
02:40:29.200 --> 02:40:32.600
But it's like a minute into the call.

2640
02:40:33.040 --> 02:40:35.399
But initially it went to Hampton and then subsequently it

2641
02:40:35.479 --> 02:40:36.399
was transferred to call.

2642
02:40:36.959 --> 02:40:37.399
That's right.

2643
02:40:38.399 --> 02:40:40.799
And then a minute or so into the Callington call,

2644
02:40:40.879 --> 02:40:42.319
you said, I've been up to it, now, do you

2645
02:40:42.360 --> 02:40:42.719
remember that.

2646
02:40:43.440 --> 02:40:46.840
I do remember saying that. I remember hearing it. I

2647
02:40:46.920 --> 02:40:51.280
don't remember saying that, but I remember hearing it. And

2648
02:40:51.399 --> 02:41:08.399
that's I mean that that is accurate. And by up

2649
02:41:08.479 --> 02:41:10.280
to it, at that point, I had.

2650
02:41:10.280 --> 02:41:12.120
Gone all the way up to them.

2651
02:41:12.479 --> 02:41:15.879
At that point when I first got out, I was close,

2652
02:41:15.959 --> 02:41:19.120
but I wasn't right at them, I don't think right.

2653
02:41:22.760 --> 02:41:26.520
You were asked about the roadside shooting and and your

2654
02:41:26.600 --> 02:41:28.760
intent was to end your life that day, was or not?

2655
02:41:29.360 --> 02:41:33.399
It was new question, and.

2656
02:41:37.079 --> 02:41:40.440
And you were shot but not killed, and then you

2657
02:41:41.159 --> 02:41:43.239
made up a lot to law enforcement about.

2658
02:41:43.040 --> 02:41:45.000
What happened, right, That's correct?

2659
02:41:45.719 --> 02:41:48.520
Were you trying to protect Curtis Aity Smith by doing that?

2660
02:41:50.600 --> 02:41:56.559
Was I trying to protect Curtis ad Smith? Yes, I

2661
02:41:56.639 --> 02:41:59.879
mean I don't know exactly at all had to come

2662
02:42:00.040 --> 02:42:02.200
together so quick. I don't know that I was trying

2663
02:42:02.239 --> 02:42:06.639
to protect Curtis Eddie Smith. I may have been, but

2664
02:42:06.879 --> 02:42:10.399
it was just you know, I wasn't supposed to be there,

2665
02:42:10.799 --> 02:42:11.280
and then.

2666
02:42:12.959 --> 02:42:13.319
I was.

2667
02:42:15.040 --> 02:42:16.680
When you say I wasn't supposed to be there, what

2668
02:42:16.959 --> 02:42:17.559
do you mean by that.

2669
02:42:18.120 --> 02:42:21.159
I intended for him to I mean I intended to

2670
02:42:21.239 --> 02:42:23.440
be gone. I intended for him to shoot me, and

2671
02:42:23.559 --> 02:42:25.799
I intended to be gone.

2672
02:42:26.760 --> 02:42:32.120
And the one thing, the main, my main concern at

2673
02:42:32.239 --> 02:42:38.840
that point was that I did not want Buster. I

2674
02:42:39.000 --> 02:42:42.360
did not want Buster, knowing that I had tried to

2675
02:42:42.600 --> 02:42:48.159
do that, That was my motivation in telling that story.

2676
02:42:51.079 --> 02:43:00.440
Did you eventually voluntarily conveyed Agent Kelly and others that

2677
02:43:00.600 --> 02:43:01.559
that was a fabrication?

2678
02:43:02.200 --> 02:43:05.840
I did? I did after I don't know a few

2679
02:43:05.920 --> 02:43:06.319
days in.

2680
02:43:09.399 --> 02:43:14.159
Detox, when I finally got over those initial it's where

2681
02:43:14.200 --> 02:43:14.719
I could.

2682
02:43:17.239 --> 02:43:24.760
Function. I think I told you first, Then I think

2683
02:43:24.799 --> 02:43:25.520
I told Buster.

2684
02:43:27.000 --> 02:43:29.159
Then I think I told Randy and John, and y'all

2685
02:43:29.319 --> 02:43:34.479
arranged either the next day or two days later to

2686
02:43:34.639 --> 02:43:37.120
come and we called Ryan Kelly.

2687
02:43:38.280 --> 02:43:42.639
I'll let you. You've lied to your family over many years,

2688
02:43:42.799 --> 02:43:43.159
have you not?

2689
02:43:43.959 --> 02:43:48.959
I lied to my family about my addiction, and.

2690
02:43:49.079 --> 02:43:52.399
You hid from them you were stealing client money, did

2691
02:43:52.479 --> 02:43:52.639
you not?

2692
02:43:53.040 --> 02:43:55.680
Oh? I never They didn't know anything about that.

2693
02:43:58.159 --> 02:44:03.639
And you've lied to your law partner about financial dealings

2694
02:44:03.719 --> 02:44:04.719
and perhaps your addiction.

2695
02:44:06.920 --> 02:44:10.000
Yes, and you've lied to.

2696
02:44:10.000 --> 02:44:18.239
Law enforcement about not going down to the kennels after dinner,

2697
02:44:18.319 --> 02:44:20.520
but eating dinner and taking a nap.

2698
02:44:21.000 --> 02:44:21.399
Did you not?

2699
02:44:21.799 --> 02:44:22.920
I did all?

2700
02:44:23.040 --> 02:44:23.159
Right?

2701
02:44:24.360 --> 02:44:24.760
Right here?

2702
02:44:25.319 --> 02:44:31.399
Turn up those speakers right here, The defense asked the

2703
02:44:31.639 --> 02:44:35.840
question we all want to know by this point, directly

2704
02:44:36.680 --> 02:44:39.559
to Alex Murdall's face.

2705
02:44:40.440 --> 02:44:42.319
Alex, did you murder Maggie?

2706
02:44:44.239 --> 02:44:46.639
I would never hurt Maggie?

2707
02:44:47.719 --> 02:44:48.600
Did you murder Paul?

2708
02:44:49.200 --> 02:44:55.639
I would never hurt Paul. Yes, I was under the

2709
02:44:55.799 --> 02:44:58.440
pressure that they're talking about here. I can promise you

2710
02:44:59.000 --> 02:45:04.639
I would hurt myself else before I would hurt one

2711
02:45:04.680 --> 02:45:08.200
of them without a doubt.

2712
02:45:11.360 --> 02:45:12.840
Thank you. That's all the questions from here.

2713
02:45:13.840 --> 02:45:19.079
Well, what do you think? Did he sound convincing? But

2714
02:45:19.239 --> 02:45:23.760
waters wasn't quite dumb without He provides his own rebuttle

2715
02:45:25.000 --> 02:45:27.159
with this, said.

2716
02:45:29.319 --> 02:45:29.840
That you were.

2717
02:45:29.799 --> 02:45:32.719
Concerned when you talked to David Owen about the bag

2718
02:45:32.799 --> 02:45:34.319
of pills in your pocket. Correct?

2719
02:45:38.639 --> 02:45:40.600
I mean, no, sir, I don't know. I'm not saying

2720
02:45:40.600 --> 02:45:43.159
that I was concerned about that. I don't think I

2721
02:45:43.280 --> 02:45:45.520
told you I was concerned about that. I'm just telling

2722
02:45:45.559 --> 02:45:49.040
you that was that was a fact. I had a

2723
02:45:49.079 --> 02:45:51.280
bag of pills in my pocket, and that was one

2724
02:45:51.319 --> 02:45:54.000
of the things that was one of the many things

2725
02:45:54.319 --> 02:45:56.600
that came together that night.

2726
02:45:56.920 --> 02:45:59.239
And you're trying to tell this jury that has a

2727
02:45:59.360 --> 02:46:07.239
reasonable well husband and father in this situation, concerned about

2728
02:46:07.239 --> 02:46:09.840
a bag of pills in your pocket was more important

2729
02:46:09.920 --> 02:46:14.559
to you than telling law enforcement and narring the time

2730
02:46:15.680 --> 02:46:18.159
when you last saw your wife and son a lot.

2731
02:46:19.159 --> 02:46:21.000
That's what you want to convince Ssteria.

2732
02:46:21.200 --> 02:46:24.440
Know, because I mean, the bag of pills in my

2733
02:46:24.600 --> 02:46:29.840
pocket was not what I was concerned about sitting in there.

2734
02:46:29.920 --> 02:46:31.760
It was, as I said, it was one of the

2735
02:46:32.040 --> 02:46:33.879
many things that was going on.

2736
02:46:34.239 --> 02:46:37.600
But I wasn't sitting there worried about those pills in

2737
02:46:37.719 --> 02:46:38.200
my pocket.

2738
02:46:40.440 --> 02:46:43.879
You were asked about requesting.

2739
02:46:45.520 --> 02:46:46.159
The phone and.

2740
02:46:47.879 --> 02:46:54.319
Automobile data, and that was because as a prosecutor and

2741
02:46:54.440 --> 02:46:59.719
a lawyer, you had been manufacturing an alibi to cover

2742
02:46:59.799 --> 02:47:00.479
your tracks.

2743
02:47:01.879 --> 02:47:03.600
No, so that's absolutely wrong.

2744
02:47:05.159 --> 02:47:07.879
You ad met you were wrong about a lot of

2745
02:47:08.000 --> 02:47:15.639
things and what you tall law enforcement about June seventh, correct.

2746
02:47:18.760 --> 02:47:21.799
I was I was wrong about things.

2747
02:47:27.399 --> 02:47:28.239
Some things.

2748
02:47:31.200 --> 02:47:38.799
You're asked whether or not you voluntarily confessed to Agent Kelly,

2749
02:47:39.840 --> 02:47:46.399
but you only did so after being confronted with undeniable information.

2750
02:47:47.799 --> 02:47:51.440
Correct, No, sir, that's that's not correct at all.

2751
02:47:51.520 --> 02:47:56.000
What I was told is that, and I believe this

2752
02:47:56.120 --> 02:47:59.000
came from Randy. What I was told is that Slid

2753
02:47:59.479 --> 02:48:04.440
had come up with some information that seemed like it

2754
02:48:04.559 --> 02:48:06.920
was consistent with my story and they needed me to

2755
02:48:07.040 --> 02:48:11.639
verify some things, is what they told me. And you know,

2756
02:48:13.000 --> 02:48:18.360
I knew that resources had already been wasted. I didn't

2757
02:48:18.360 --> 02:48:20.120
want them wasting any more resources.

2758
02:48:21.040 --> 02:48:24.319
And I told them the truth, but there wasn't any

2759
02:48:25.319 --> 02:48:27.239
Nobody had presented me with any evidence.

2760
02:48:29.559 --> 02:48:33.159
And you just testified that you told Jim Griffin first. Correct.

2761
02:48:34.559 --> 02:48:36.440
I believe that I told Jim Griffin first.

2762
02:48:36.520 --> 02:48:39.000
But at that time, you didn't say anything about those kennels.

2763
02:48:39.040 --> 02:48:39.319
Did you.

2764
02:48:41.559 --> 02:48:44.399
To Jim Griffin at that time? No, sirah, I didn't.

2765
02:48:45.559 --> 02:48:48.479
When you testified on direct yesterday and you were asked

2766
02:48:48.479 --> 02:48:54.879
about leaving the kennels with your new story in light

2767
02:48:54.920 --> 02:48:58.639
of the evidence has been presented in this trial, your

2768
02:48:58.719 --> 02:49:02.159
words were, I got out of there. Correct.

2769
02:49:04.159 --> 02:49:06.959
I believe that's what I said, Yes, sir, And.

2770
02:49:07.040 --> 02:49:15.639
You also said during your testimony on cross examination that

2771
02:49:15.760 --> 02:49:18.159
you hurt the ones you love the most, didn't you.

2772
02:49:19.200 --> 02:49:19.879
I did say that.

2773
02:49:20.280 --> 02:49:26.319
Than in saying that, mister Waters, I just want to

2774
02:49:26.360 --> 02:49:31.120
explain that answer, and he just asked me a question

2775
02:49:31.239 --> 02:49:34.120
about what I said, and I was going to explain

2776
02:49:35.120 --> 02:49:39.559
why I said it, As I told you earlier, you're

2777
02:49:39.600 --> 02:49:43.520
implying to this jury and to me that that was

2778
02:49:44.520 --> 02:49:48.120
me talking about hurting Maggie and Paul, and that's not

2779
02:49:48.280 --> 02:49:52.399
what that was. What that was is me saying, I

2780
02:49:52.559 --> 02:49:59.120
know I hurt my brother, my partners, my clients, many

2781
02:49:59.200 --> 02:50:03.840
of whom I told told you I loved, all of

2782
02:50:03.920 --> 02:50:04.680
whom I cared for.

2783
02:50:05.879 --> 02:50:08.840
And that's what that was. When I'm talking about.

2784
02:50:10.479 --> 02:50:15.719
How my misdeeds, how I hurt the people worst were

2785
02:50:15.760 --> 02:50:17.000
the ones I love the most.

2786
02:50:17.719 --> 02:50:19.120
I just asked you what you said, crag.

2787
02:50:19.159 --> 02:50:22.680
Mister Murda, you did ask me what I said.

2788
02:50:22.719 --> 02:50:27.040
But in asking me that, you're putting an implication on

2789
02:50:27.159 --> 02:50:29.799
there that I am explaining.

2790
02:50:31.159 --> 02:50:32.360
I just asked you what you said.

2791
02:50:32.440 --> 02:50:34.399
Okay, yes, sir, thank you.

2792
02:50:34.680 --> 02:50:35.280
Nothing from me.

2793
02:50:37.120 --> 02:50:37.440
Wow.

2794
02:50:39.000 --> 02:50:44.120
In my opinion, Murda just got decimated by Creaking Waters

2795
02:50:44.200 --> 02:50:59.000
and I personally loved it. Hey, thank you so much

2796
02:50:59.120 --> 02:51:01.159
for hanging in there with me on this one. I

2797
02:51:01.319 --> 02:51:03.559
know it was a long episode, but I didn't want

2798
02:51:03.600 --> 02:51:06.319
to drag out this series any further than I have to,

2799
02:51:06.479 --> 02:51:08.639
and we still got a ways to go yet. My

2800
02:51:08.799 --> 02:51:12.040
goal is to complete this one in thirty episodes. We're

2801
02:51:12.079 --> 02:51:15.879
on twenty two now, so we're getting close. And until

2802
02:51:16.559 --> 02:51:22.319
next time, for exposed scandalous files of the Elite, I'm

2803
02:51:22.360 --> 02:51:23.600
your host, Jim Chapman.

2804
02:51:24.440 --> 02:51:25.040
Much love,
