“Call me babe.” That was Alex Murdaugh’s last text to his wife, prosecutors revealed during the second week of the double murder trial where Murdaugh, a disgraced prominent South Carolina attorney, is accused of killing his wife and youngest son.

Prosecutors alleged in court on Tuesday that Murdaugh had sent the message, left unread, a short time after he shot and killedon June 7, 2021. Murdaugh has pleaded not guilty to murder and weapons possession charges in the case.

“It appears the phone’s being moved and the camera’s activating in the background to see if it would recognize somebody’s face that would unlock it,” Dove testified. Prosecutors and defense attorneys also honed in on a five-word phrase Murdaugh said in an interview with police three days after the slayings.However, the defense argued Murdaugh said, “They did him so bad,” and even played a slowed-down version of the audio recording for the jury.Jeff Croft, a senior special agent with SLED, maintained in his testimony he heard Murdaugh say “I” in his interview with investigators.
