In “I Intended for Him to Shoot Me and I Intended To Be Gone” and Forensic Pathologist — Part 1 we conclude our review of Alex Murdaugh’s testimony beginning with Jim Griffin’s efforts to counter the prosecutor’s argument that the defendant’s motivation for lying was to coverup his guilt. Griffin seeks to use Murdaugh’s testimony to convince the jury that the lies were side-effects to his addiction-fueled paranoia. We also begin our review of the testimony of the defense team’s forensic pathology expert, Dr. Jonathan Eisenstat.
