Prosecutors end their rebuttal after calling six witnesses in Alex Murdaugh’s murder trial

CNN  

CNN — State prosecutors rested their rebuttal case Tuesday after calling six witnesses to contradict parts of Alex Murdaugh’s defense as the disgraced attorney’s double murder trial neared its end. Kinsey said there were too many variables to determine the shooter’s height with any certainty, calling the analysis “unscientific.” Kinsey also criticized another defense expert’s theory that there were two shooters, saying the analysis that led to that determination was “preposterous.” He was questioned by South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson, his first time questioning a witness in the case. Dr. Ellen Riemer, a pathologist who conducted the autopsies of Paul and Maggie Murdaugh, returned to the stand to reject a defense expert’s assertion that Paul died from a shotgun contact wound to his head. Among the witnesses called by Murdaugh’s attorneys were his former legal partner who testified the scene was not properly secured, and a forensics expert who said his analysis suggests two shooters carried out the killings.
