About

Whose hand was Maggie Murdaugh's phone in at 8:53? Part 2 of the Murdaugh murder mystery is built on that question. On the night of June 7, 2021, by the state's reckoning Maggie had been dead minutes when her phone counted fifty-nine steps across the property at Moselle. Its camera woke for about a second and looked for a face it knew. The state's analyst called that a phone being carried. The defense pointed out that a throw moves a phone too. Alex Murdaugh's own phone had gone quiet at nine minutes past eight and stayed quiet until 9:02, when the state's analyst says it logged 283 steps at the fastest pace it recorded all day. He testified he must not have had it with him at the kennels and couldn't say where he left it. Maggie's phone turned up the next afternoon in the grass beside Moselle Road, still locked.
