Murdaugh murders: Former lawyer accused of killing family testifies in own defense | LIVE
The state, however, contends the purported misconduct was about to be revealed at the time of the killings and provided Murdaugh with a motive to fatally shoot his wife and son by the family's dog kennels that night.
Maggie and Paul went before he did, Murdaugh said, but he ultimately decided to go. He testified he took a golf cart to the kennels, where Maggie had let out the dogs while Paul was "fooling" with the tail of one dog that belonged to his friend.Soon after, Murdaugh returned to the house, he said, where he lay down on the couch.
Murdaugh knocked on the door when he arrived, he said, but the other caregiver, Mushell Smith, didn't hear it so he called Smith to be let in. Smith previously testified for the state that the timing of the nighttime visit was unusual and that Murdaugh had called her when he got to the house.
