Murdaugh Lawyer Fires Back After Judge Questions Ballistics Hunt

The judge questioned Alex Murdaugh’s defense over its request to examine shell casings from other shootings for possible links to the murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh. The judge said the request sounded like a “fishing expedition,” prompting defense attorney Dick Harpootlian to respond, “Let’s say it is. Let’s say it is a fishing expedition.” The defense argues additional testing of .300 Blackout cartridge casings could help challenge ballistic evidence presented at Murdaugh’s first trial, while prosecutors say a national database has found no matches linking the other cases to the Murdaugh murders.
