Letting him talk was notable and effective
Yes Exactly Sandra. Letting Alex talk provided Alex with just enough rope to hang himself. The truth will always prevail.
Agreed. I can’t believe people weren’t understanding what he was doing and were criticizing this tactic. It went right over so many peoples’ heads.
@@girl.anachronism5639 right
Yes, by all means, let a narcissist talk
@@girl.anachronism5639 💯 ppl that are impatient
WATERS DID AN AMAZING JOB. I APPLAUD YOU AND YOUR TEAM!!!!!!
Waters was freaking hilarious in the cross. It was like a parent scolding a kid.
I liked “go ahead and tell me about your that you stole from. Or. That’s your new story now.
@@lindag4029 yes
Haha the way waters leaned into him with arms crossed on the podium and glasses beneath his eyes 👀 for further effect. Absolutely Outstanding !!
He was brilliant! loved his approach!
Made me really laugh when he asked AM what he did in those 4 minutes had me cracking up!
“Going to the bathroom?, going on a treadmill?, jogging in place?, doing jumping jacks?” 😂🤣
The entire prosecution team deserves a huge thank you!!
Great job to the prosecution team
Waters was brilliant for bringing up the badge and the blue lights. He was able to prove Alex lied on the stand to the jury.
Exactly....that was proof of his lies...perjury imho
Exactly that truly showed how much he lies
Yes I agree with you 100%.
It's kind of easy to prove a liar. Especially when they do it all the time.
I think people that do crimes like this don't believe there's a God. They don't believe there's a judgement day.
They don't read the Bible where it says the secrets of men will be revealed for the whole world to hear.
It's good to read the Bible because it's what you don't know that's going to condemn you.
Mr. Medders did such an awesome job in closing! you can tell that he's the son of a preacher! He literally wrapped up the whole case in a calm, clear manner. Great job!
I agree. It was like he was telling a story in his rebuttal closing remarks.
They were determined to take this guy down and they did it !!
As much of a circus this case was/is SC really showed the world what a proper trial looks like. The Judge and lawyers were pure class
Everyone except Harpootlian.
Prosecution was aweome--Defense team sucked
Prosecution was pure class, esp Waters. Defense was trash, abusive to witnesses.
Harpootlian is universally loathed. Even by his contemporaries in the field. The man is a prick. A good old boy, to understate it! Good news is, he’s now done. He’s already close to aging out legally. Plus, his (already horrible) reputation has now suffered it’s death blow. Good riddance. *side note: ironically, I find Jim Griffin to be basically a stand up guy, doing his best in a really unenviable position. Every accused person in this country deserves solid legal representation, and I feel like Mr. Griffin provided it.
The Prosecutor was a genius during cross examination!!! 👊👊👊
You freaking GOT him!! SO awesome to watch.
Great job to Mr Water and the A team
Incredible trialing by the prosecution team!
I agree
on the otherhand - one would have to be an absolute terrible prosecution to LOSE concerning all the evidence... Especially that kennel video.. smh
The Prosecutor did a GREAT job. I knew why he let him talk. Kennel video really helped. So glad Paul took it.
Gift ftom the grave!
Amazing that it was caught since his phone was about to die. The battery only had 4 percent left and he was still texting.
Waters is the goat you are awesome
You know it greatest of all
Time
I loved the sarcastic way he would always say, " Oh okay." 😁 It would have been great to have had him walk up & down the aisle and actually count 280 + steps to show he didn't just get up and leave the house. What a big liar. Poor Maggie & Paul. 🙏🏾
283 steps...but yes that would've been very effective 👍
I was waiting for it!!😁👍
Actually no it was annoying his little snide remarks! The justice system is suppose to be innocent until proven guilty but Waters did the opposite! I think Alex is a disgusting human but I still don't know if he did the murders after watching this whole trial! He had more evidence in the stolen finances than the actual murder and it was a murder case! There's still way too many questions! Especially looking at it as a jury should! I have never watched a trial like this ever!
Spectacular coverage of this case by Court TV...thank you!✌
Bring on John Meadors!!!!!!! He solidified this case by his closing argument!
I hear ya Hanna.... Meadors won the case no question. That close out rebuttal was Gold.
@@strictlynorton yes 🙌🏻
Where is he? I haven’t seen him interviewed. He’s just as responsible for the win.
What makes him even more appealing? He didn't pander to the media and get in front of every microphone that sought him out. Makes me respect him more and be even more interested in hearing from him.
Loved him! I'd love to hear from him too.
Mr Waters asking AM what he did in those 4 minutes had me cracking up!
“Going to the bathroom?, going on a treadmill?, jogging in place?, doing jumping jacks?” 😂🤣
It takes a lot of discipline and focus to allow awkward silence and avoid trying to fill it yourself. If you wait, the other person always will. Creighton is a star ✨
“Cleaning off, washing off guns, putting guns in a raincoat”
All in chronological order and mentioned succinctly!! Gives me chills how he said this and I wondered… is he reliving it so quickly in his mind. Like yeah… 1, 2, 3 😮
Bravo to the prosecution.
Mr. Waters & the whole Prosecution-Team were doing an EXCELLENT job. Truly impressive. All my respect to laying out all those facts for the Jury & the Judge. Highest regards to you from Europe.
Mr. Waters. Thank you for a job very well done.
He did a wonderful job putting it together for everyone 👏
The prosecutor was excellent. He put Alex in knots and it worked.
The video in the kennel he was there. It's so sad to hear the victim voices 😢 rip 🙏
Congratulation to Mr. Creighton Waters and the prosecution team for winning the case against Alex Murdaugh double murder trial. Bravo!!!
CREIGHTON had ALEX’S NUMBER! He couldn’t resist talking and lying! Excellent Result! I love when Alex said, To get this over with in a short period of time….and Creighton said Oh No We are going to go through everything and take our time. Giving Alex time was all we needed. No one has mentioned this SNORT he did after A LOT of lies in his police videos. Watch it, it’s his total “Tell”. He did it even when the first responders were there. ……Very Strange, his true self is heinous.
Atttorney Waters is really on top of this case with discernment, talent, intelligence, and skillfulness totally on point and focused. A taskmaster and deeply cares about dear Paul and Ms. Maggie. Thank Attorney Waters from the depth of my heart this has been an enormous endeavor of love and care.
The Prosecution team knew their jury, their audience, and they tailored their case for them. It might have seemed odd to those of us not from that area, but in listening to the various jurors after the trial's end, they knew what they were doing.
AM sounds like a teenager in the school principal's office.
Just ONE CUP OF JUSTICE , I LOVE THAT QUOTE , WELL SAID .
I watched the trial on a podcast by a former prosecutor and later watched other podcasts with lawyers commenting. Without exception, they all said Murdaugh was controlling things. Oddly, some of them would claim they think outside the box, but they didn't. Waters did.
I thought this was supposed to be an interview of Waters. There were literally 2-3 clips of him talking and the rest was commercials and Court TV personnel talking…
Great work on the side of lead prosecutor. I find it amazing how his son convicted him from the grave. !!! Amazing....
Great Job, Waters and Team 🎉🎊🎉
As soon the Prosecutor Creighton Waters, open first his mouth the first day in the Court...............I said that's the Prosecutor we want to question ALEX ! I knew that disgrace ALEX can't play games with him ! Creighton Waters is a GREAT PERSON, a GREAT PROSECUTOR with BIG HEART dedicated to TRUTH and JUSTICE !
who was the other prosecutor who did the closing? He was incredible too!
@Deborah, his name is John Meadors. 😊
@@connieg5351 thanks, he did a great job. A nail in AM's coffin!
John Meadors closing was awesome to watch.
I loved it when Creighton let him talk...I would say that everytime in the live they always hang theirselves
So proud of CW and the whole TEAM!!!!
I could listen to this man recite the dictionary. Love his voice. ❤️
Awesome job done by the prosecutors, especially Mr. Waters. This team brought the truth and justice to Maggie and Paul, exactly opposite that was done by Jim G abd Dick H !!
Mr. Waters is brilliant!
This prosecutor had a significantly harder job in this case than he normally would have just because of the notoriety of the family alone! He and his team prosecuted this trial with pure class and professionalism. Kudos to all of you for getting it done!
Awesome work!
YOU DID A WONDERFUL JOB MR WATERS
I think it helped that he knew his personality from working around him too. Alex has been flimflamming his way outa stuff for a long time… he is heavy with the tongue as they would say. Excellent job by the state!!👏💯
Creighton is LEGEND.
Mr Water’s cross examination was spot on. Mr Murdaugh taking the stand…he did himself in with Mr Water’s questions. Murdaugh was very practiced and plastic. Rarely did he show concern for Maggie, mostly Paul.
I wanna be friends with Creighton Waters.💯🤙🏼
👏 Waters is a genius & funny as hell with his comments 😆
The testimony of the caretaker and housekeeper too would have been enough to convict him.
Incredible job done by the prosecution team !
WOW MR WALTERS JUST BRILLANT♥️🍀🇮🇪
Can you imagine what Jim and Harpootlian thought when they first heard about and watched the kennel video ??
Great prosecutor!
A great team 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 great Work guys and gals , you all did good !!!!!!
Loving the many facets that are being brought to us with regards to this trial. Wow - what's to follow (!)?
I thought his cross was brilliant from the start. I realized exactly what he was doing from the start. It takes a Fox to catch a fox.
Awe haha I really liked the segway to introducing the podcast. Cute haha u can tell vinny is loving to do a podcast!! Made me smile haha good job yall
Alecs Ego was revealed to be Huge !!! He just couldn't resist the urge to manipulate and dominate in a conversation. Great Work !!!!
where's the actual interview with Waters? I don't want to listen to 3 people talk ABOUT an interview.
Love creighton
You were the BEST on your team.. like your style..
I knew right away what mr waters was up to…. Let him talk!!!!
I've fallen in love with Creighton Waters.. he's probably married though! 🤔
Great job 🎉
If there was someone else out there that Alex testified that the dogs never acted like they sensed something or someone and he said that there was nothing or nobody for them to sense . Three people were at the kennel and two end up dead and the third person is lying about being there hmmm 🤔 seems suspicious 😊
creighton did an AMAZING job on this case
This prosecutor is one of the best
You’re out of your mind if you believe that. This must’ve been your first trial.
roflmao......You must have not watched the trail or seen many.......THe media convicted this guy not the weak case.
When Alex said I would never hurt why not follow up with.' yeah but would you kill...
Genus
The closed caption words are always so entertaining. About a fourth of the words are completely wrong, especially with southern accents.
I was a medical transcriptist for over 20 yrs and I have to turn the captions off.
Alex would have never admitted him being at the kennels if that video hadn't put him there. He only admitted any lies if there was undeniable proof, the kennels and the Financials.
There were discrepancies in Alex's testimony from Thursday to Friday. He couldn't remember his lies from the day before.
Brilliant
Something struck me: I think A.M. (mr. bobblehead) evaluated the situation wrongly with C. Waters. Whenever Mr. Waters was quiet, A.M. deemed the silence of Mr. Waters as 'weakness' ... in his arrogance A.M. did not think that C. Waters is smarter than him & gives A.M. 'more rope' to strangle himself with his own lying words. Brilliant Mr. Waters.
The prosecutor for the state lead Chris Waters he was fabulous fantastic marvelous job Chris...❤️🌎👍
*Creighton, Creighton Waters 😘
@@truthhurts2879 my bad I thought his name was Chris but it is water's I'm so happy 😊 he's a beautiful persecutor ❤️🌎
Waters was good, but Meaders hit it out of the park at the end.
Funny how many people were criticizing this lead prosecuter early on, but he knew exactly what he was doing and dominated the 3rd and 4th quarters. Now yall praising him
He’s just vomiting up words! Why don’t his attorneys stop him.. I don’t think they can!! 😂🤣
He really played the defense like a fiddle. From them prepping so hard for the blood splatter and the forensics on the shirt to then flip the whole trial and focus on the cell phone data and the lies was genius. He knew that the lies were the most important thing in this case. Let the liar lie and they will bury themselves.
Am I the only person on the planet who heard the voices on the kennel video and thought, "Is that Alex, or Alex's brother?" They have the SAME VOICE.
this guy did a great job
Ultimately, it was two words that took Alex down, Tic-Tok. He'll spend the rest of his natural born life repeating the words Tic- Tok.
It was snap chat not tik tok 😂
@@surfgorl9407 Thanks for the correction. I don't use either, so I got them mixed up.
Oh how the mighty have fallen!! Complete family narcissism.
The fact that Alex hisself thought it was helpful to get on the stand is by far his best decision 😂😂
Great guitar playing too Sir xxx
This guy loves the camera, he'll talk to anyone that will listen
Count me in!
Prosecutor just lets him talk.....pause cause he knows that liar would incriminate him an it did awesome
I just want to say how truly fascinating it was to watch this trial.
I didn't even watch the oj trial in its entirety.
I really wish all lawyers were champions of truth & all judges instilled with the integrity I witnessed during the murdaugh trial.
It held me spellbound.
I'd expected a hung jury.
I'd underestimated the good people serving as jurors.
My heart goes out to Maggie, and to Paul.
It's extraordinary that he happened to make that video.
May they rest in eternal peace.
I would love to see Vinnie in a trial setting!!
You would think he as an attorney , would know to shut up. The Narcissism just wouldn’t allow himself to zip it. The rules don’t apply to him apparently, as we all know.
Just finished watching Dr. Phil and trial topic
it’s absolutely horrific to think of killing your wife and son in that way or indeed any way but to blow there heads of 🤦♂️ and then there’s other dubious deaths connected to that family fffs😮 they also need investigated as soon as possible, at least Alex can’t harm anyone else now, i would add my two pence worth and say that Buster looks completely nuts also! is he innocent?
God blessed sr we need lots in lots people like you to fight for human beings justice you win the Case but you big win from god . God blessed you family too
Alex brought himself down when he asked Waters that he'd need to know where his assertion was stemming from and they replayed the first car SLED interview again.
