- An exchange between defense attorney Dick Harpootlian and SLED agent Ryan Kelly got tense as the lawyer questioned the handling of the Alex Murdaugh case.
#alexmurdaugh #murdaugh
So glad Harpootlian helped the jury find Murdaugh GUILTY.
Harpootlian is having a bad day...the more he questions this SLED agent...the more credibility Harpootilian loses in the eyes of the jury!
He sounds like a hard drinker wanting to get back to his bottle for long weekend; Mr. Nastyarse.
Bingo! I served on a federal jury a few years back. When the attorney for the defense starting disrespecting the witnesses testifying, it immediately backfired on the attorney.
Alex can't say his lawyers didn't fight for him. This is a win for everyone involved. At some point, the lawyers will be interviewed and be able to say they tried every trick. No shame in it. Horrible defendant, with an insurmountable list of victims. Guilty in my eyes and heart.
each time Harpo standsup to say something, he buttons his jacket as tho he is John F Kennedy !
Judge Newman, "Mr. Harpootlian you can't testify." LOL
That defense lawyer is a horse's ass. I hope he alienated the jury.
"Mr. Harpootlian, you cannot testify." Love the Judge putting him in his place.
Mr. Harpootlian did more harm than good. As a juror, I would have a hard time respecting or listening to anything about him. Being sarcastic, rude, or dismissive does not make you more correct. In fact, I would disregard anything, he is unprofessional. Attempting to bully and humiliate witnesses only served to build disrespect for him.
I could not possibly love this more.
@@dianameier7958 right!! And to think poot is a US state senator from South Carolina,who helps determine what he wants for us and our family!!
@@dianameier7958 honestly I think that Harpoorlian and the team realized quickly that they could not save their client and they were on desperate ground. I think this is why he behaved so inappropriately. It was hard to watch indeed
@@dianameier7958
You have been completely influenced by today media-Hollywood in particular. Heaven forbid you ever find yourself with the State pointing their finger at you with a case.
I am a former Deputy Sheriff Bailiff…under the law your defense attorney had a legal obligation to be “adversarial” to the State in your behalf. Why? Because the State has UNLIMITED RESOURCES against its citizens.
Try understanding the Constitution and your Bill of Rights. Your attitude and what appears a Hollywood emotional understanding of serious court cases is why America is failing as a Constitutional Republic. America has mass political prisoners in prison of no flight risk for the first time and only a few people are outraged about it. Study history to see how that action has lead to or is part of a chain of events that leads to a failed State.
This officer exhibits great control! He is being unfairly badgered by this incompetent defense lawyer. I applaud the officer. Shame on this attorney.
Harpootlian is no where this side of incompetent; he is simply an AH.
Dick Harpootlian made a fool of himself.
Per usual 😉
What a jerk he is.
It makes me giggle because he reminds me of this guy:

Harpootlian is totally embarrassment.
I admire this agent so much!
Same 👌
Ryan Kelly is not caving ! Good for him
He remained totally professional and did an outstanding job. He was clear and calm, and didn't let the attorney twist the truth.
@@VioletJoy a few times The sled officer even kind of chuckled at the Irritation of the attorney!
@@deenaweeks5837 Oh, I missed that.
Harpoodles is so repulsive but damn that detective hung in there like a boss.He was not going to let himself be intimidated.
Can you repeat the question😂😂😂
He certainly stood up to the defense lawyer! Good for him.
Such a disgusting little man. I bet he gets away with those temper tantrums all the time.
Cool as a cucumber and remained respectful throughout. Unlike the haughty, impatient, frustrated, desperate, and perhaps hungover?? defense attorney.
@@terrymeadows2384 the reason why Harpollian was there w Alex is because they were both there in detox-
As an ER/trauma RN. I’d LOVE to cross exam this lawyer. I am eating up his mispronunciation of all these medical terms while he is being so rude. He is so aggressive and arrogant and discussing this like he knows what he is talking about. When he has no idea. This man on the stand- give him a break. This lawyer is incompetent and demeaning. Let. Me. At. Him. I could tear him up the way he is approaching this interrogation. Nothing humble about this man. He has obviously spent his career belittling and intimidating others. I bet his character is poor to the very core. Shame on him. A win isn’t ever commendable when you attack like this. Be a man show up w skill, tactic, and education. This is disgusting.
Excuse me.. I also am a nurse but don't ask me legal terms. He is very abrasive and I wouldn't want him for a lawyer but I wouldn't denigrate an attorney for mispronunciation or medical terms. I wouldn't say I know the man's career no more than I would yours.
Jessica I transcribe medical reports, atrocious pronunciation of medical terms, Mr Know it all.
“Sir you would agree that the parakeet lobe got fractured, isn’t that right”?
iM aN rN aNd I wAnNa CrOsS eXaMiNe ThE lAwYeR!!! Dick Harpootilan was trying cases while you were at community college and he’d eat you like a Chinese buffet.
Huh ?????
You would like to cross examine this defense attorney as a RN ???? Hilarious, He would have you crying like a Pregnant Nun on that stand. You would run straight out of that courtroom
Dick says they’re having a hard time communicating. That’s because he’s being a jerk and trying to intimidate the witness.
No he's just showing how unprofessional and incompetent these SLED agents are!
@@wizza2315 they may have made some mistakes! It’s a small town! And they probably never dreamed a man who supposedly had it all would ever shoot his wife and. Son
JudyScott 9 - Agreed, but he just picked the wrong witness.
The SLED agents are unprofessional and he's showing that would you think a defense attorney wouldn't try to expose this?
"being a jerk" haha is that your legal basis? 😂
Harpo needs to sit down and stop bullying the SLED agent. He can’t even pronounce the medical terms and barely can speak a complete sentence.
Harpo Marx reborn!
Parietal. That one hurt.
To think he's dumb or not as sharp, would be a mistake. I grew up around hundreds of old southern white men, that kind of act like they're ditzy, so others will underestimate them. He must be pretty smart to have attained the position he's in, state senator and one of the best attorneys in the state. One of the scary things about these old dudes, is that you can't really tell when they're mad at you. They keep that affable tone that doesn't sound angry. To lose your cool, act out, yell at someone in public, etc... is something we are trained from the cradle to NOT do. Gracious and affable. So when you see an old southern gentleman appear angry or raise their voice, they're breaking our southern genteel rules and are really mad. I wasn't good at it I guess, I embarrassed my family often. But it was the 80s lol. When I graduated college, I joined the Navy. I'd never really been around people from the north. Elders make sure we know Yankees think we're dumb and inbred. Oh, and country. People from up north think southern accents imply dumb, country redneck. While I shouldn't have run off and joined the Navy, I'm glad I did. Put 1200 people on a ship, that are from every state in the U.S., even foreign nationals that we accept from the UK, Philippines, etc, you learn how they really feel about us, I learned to appreciate our differences. So some of the comments I've seen on the trial that say things about Pootie, make me think they've never been around southerners. So my point is, Pootie, could be acting irritated when all he really wants to do is discredit this witness and ruffle his feathers. I think he kind of muddied the waters a little. Don't you? He will not be found guilty. Or at least have a hung jury. There's gonna be someone on the jury that has an aunt, sister or close friend thats connected to the Murdaughs. Or dated one lol. Or they have dirt on someone. That's another thing we're taught from the cradle - collect information. You never know when you might need the leverage.
Sorry for the lengthy post. My son gave me a gummie to try and I think I'm high. Lol.
@@bayoulafourche your last sentence 😂
@@KittyGrizGriz after being such a stick in the mud all my life, I arrived at a place of pain. Had been waiting on hip surgery. When I got it, they gave me 7 loricets and 7 tramadol and rolled me out to the car. I've had a few major surgeries over the years and opiods really did nothing for me. That's a good thing right? Lol. Let's just say I was desperate enough to try it. My son's friend that makes these and sells them, doesn't seem to follow a standard recipe. I learned to eat one and wait....to see how strong it will be. Until I learned this tidbit of knowledge, I was in pain and wasn't patient. When I eat too many, kind of freaks me out and I hear Greenday playing but I can't tell where it's coming from. Is that normal lol? Not sure it makes the pain go away, but it sure makes you not care or forget about it. I had to save something new to try in my later years.
Defence attorney made a fool of himself. He was trying to make the witness look foolish but achieved the opposite effect! He kept getting agitated, pretending like the witness was being difficult and dumb, while the witness remained calm and even smiled a bit. Attorney managed to make the jury dislike him. This is why people hate lawyers!
DefenSe
Totally agree. Harp made a complete fool of himself.
This supposed senior officer made HUGE mistakes, it's an attorneys job to point these out. This so called senior officer is the one who made an ass out of himself.
@@MrsEyes512 lmao, are you a bot?
@@tastyredsauce no. I'm trying to teach the world to spell DefenSe. 😆 🤣
I lived by the words that my daddy so poignantly taught us..."if you show be a liar, I'll show you a thief..if you show me a thief, I'll show you a liar". Life proves they go hand in hand.
Seems like your father was a wise man. Good words to live by.
@@GraysonsMimi-xn1eb Thank you. Yes he was an amazing dad and taught us well. I miss him but we will be reunited again one day and then that will be for all eternity! God bless you for your kind words📿📿📿😎.
Whoooo ain’t that the truth!
I’m not a thief but that is a lie.
My granny taught us a liar will steal .
This defense lawyer is SO unnecessarily rude and aggressive.
Why didn’t the prosecutor object? It’s not proper to ask a policeman to interpret a medical report! To any degree!
Keep watching! The prosecutor objects several times, and the judge even reprimands the defense attorney at one point for an inappropriate argument. Courtroom fireworks, I live for this stuff.
Ya I expected to see more leading or speculative objections earlier on.
he's letting defense sweat🥵 in front of the jury before he slaps him face down🤕
Why didn’t the judge stop it?
This attorney cannot even pronounce the things he’s attacking this guy for. How embarrassing.
This SLED officer is giving it right back !
Senior detective Ryan Kelly is just a hero today ...
Total hero in my book he stood his ground against a screaming and off his rocker defense attorney
Agree absolutely 👌🏆
The level of disrespect shown by the defense lawyer is mind blowing.
He's a defense lawyer!
hes as vile as his client and the other son
How?!
He's typical in SC, he thinks he sounds brilliant, bc those members of his goodol boy fan club are all like minded individuals!! He would never be the atty he think if he didn't have such a fan club or.. "Brotherhood" to work with
. I'm so grateful to see ppl seeing this foolish man for what he is!!
He needs a good asswhooping
Kudos to this officer for not cowering in front of that scumbag lawyer. Job well done, sir! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Harpootlian is a disgrace to the profession.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏿
Methinks the agent is gently winding the defense dude up,
" I like it " 👍
@@mufasasdaughter4831 ttt😊
He tried to convince him that Alex actually sustained a gun wound when it was a feigned superficial knife wound that he convinced the hospital to submit 🤣😂
The defence lawyer is grasping at straws. His aggressive behaviour towards this poor witness is appalling and disgraceful. He obviously knows they’re losing their case and I think he is making things worse by behaving this way.
Not going to sit well with this jury
The defense attorney embarrassed himself. More than usual, I should say.
HahahahH! He is an investigator and deals with this type of asshole all the time!! Looks like he is having a little fun with him!! He knows what he is doing!!
Define obviously. Are you a mind reader?
Defense Attorney’s personality, “I can bumble,hem and haw and confuse the issue all I want! It’s Your fault, not Mine!”
This officer is NOt on TRIAL ! The level of disrespect this attorney is SHOWING is a complete mess!
@Deena Weeks. It is an indication of how damaging what the officer says about the defendant.Harpootlian knows that, and that is why he is so persistent in attacking the officer. That officer is not stepping into a single trap.
That's not how trials work.
Every witness' credibility is on trial to be impeached.
If a witness can be impeached, then the jury can disregard their testimony.
@@libbyworkman3459SLED also did a terrible job investigating this case so it's not exactly unexpected
Cringe worthy.
Defense attorney is as manipulative as defendent.
Dick looks like an angry old alcoholic.
Both are crooks
Why is an FBI agent explaining medical reports to an daft attorney who can’t even pronounce the medical notes !
How utterly STUPID !
LOL. I had just said the same. As he utterly butchered the pronunciations, trying to sound intelligent. 🤣
😂😂😂
I’m surprised the Prosecutor did not object to him not being an expert witness. Harpo mispronounced Parietal (area of skull bone)and said peritoneal (abdominal membrane).
And he speaks with such authority, lol.
Guess they could not find a doctor they could subpoena.
@dianealarcon8304 I have been looking for someone to have made this comment. I kept screaming at my phone, "The word is parietal not parenteal."
WOW...Dick sure got his name honestly !! What an asshole, I can't believe the judge allowed him to badger and belittle the witness like he did. He was getting pissed because the witness wouldn't just give him a simple answer to a not so simple question.
This lawyer is actually making it worse for his client with his badgering and rudeness, imo
He is very rude. I guess they have to be, but he’s not winning any votes for the defense side.
This is the lawyer you want to defend you.
Thank you watching this happen I said and thought the same thing he's making it worse for his client he was very rude!!
Boohoo his job is not to be nice. I’d want him on my side.
The witness is not answering the questions. Instead, he is trying to relay a narrative. His narrative. If the witness was impartial, he would simply answer the questions. The defense attorney is doing a superb job in my opinion. He is showing that the witness is being impartial.
Alex head wound was nothing compared to Paul & Maggie head wounds. 😢
😢😢😢😢
Everything and I feel Everything Alex and his attorneys have done are all smoke and mirrors trying to cover from each crime.
And hopefully not uncover more crimes.
@@jeanlaubenthal698 Oh I believe there are more though.
The defense attorney is not only an ass, he rude and not very good. He is pissing the jury off which is not good for his client. He should have retired long ago.
That defense lawyer is a pure BULLY, isn't it terrible one has to be so disrespectful and such a BULLY just to try to defend such a monster like Alec.
He manipulates every day from the jail. Clearly, the Defense has not listened to one phone call. Full of manipulation.
I thought the same. Nothing seems to stop this man from putting his hands in all the pies and turning a big mess into an even bigger mess!
It was the state's decision not to bring jail calls into evidence. Pretty dumb move.
Oh the defense knows all about the jailhouse phone calls. They went to court to stop the court from responding to Freedom of Information requests from the media. Gross defense team.
He even tried to manipulate the nurses with money to use their phones.
@@roxannemoserI disagree I listens to the calls and didn’t hear anything wrong with them to point for his guilt in this case or “shady” in general. That’s clearly why in fact the prosecution did not want them brought in as evidence.
Dick generally living up to his name. I would have more respect for him if he wasn't part of the AM team trying to cover up these things prior to the trial. Politicians being shady.
This nasty attorney is testifying himself. Why isn’t the prosecution objecting?
They’re buddies
If your opponent is hurting his case, why stop him.
@@Johan-vk5yd exactly....then slap them down!.....hard!
@@Johan-vk5yd exactly
Both prosecution and defense has been lacking in the objection department during this trial. It’s been mind blowing to behold.
SLED agent was on point and stood his ground.
Well done Agent in your articulate responses to this horrible defense lawyer’s line of irrelevant questioning!
Agree
looking handsome too!
@@Itsnotthatserious2023 yes indeed.
This is what these horrible lawyers do, trump does it, they have a stable of lawyer to argue infinitely/ Until the good people just give up. How in the world could any normal person afford to go through any of this crap. Murdough is a cheat, a liar, a drug addict , a thief, and he killed his wife and son. It really isn't rocket science.
This agent is a liar and has a track record of planting evidence and abusing human rights. So keep your hero worship at the door you blue lined clown. #ICANTBREATHE #BLM
Some one needs to slap that defence attorney.😳🤚
Will smith is in Hollywood 🤣🤣🤣
@@giama7618 😂😭
He has a very hard job..I mean innocent until proven guilty....I wouldn't want to represent this man.
"Slap" him with the conviction of his client.
Call for physical assault because of his stern cross for his client. This new generation is too fragile
What a great witness. JUST the facts, period!
He looked Sharp as a tack ...Handsome (hubba hubba...smooth...not taking any shiete in a very professional and 😎Manly manner...
Defense attorney is a jerk!
The majority of the attorneys are JERKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only a jerk would defend someone that can kill your wife and son🤬

The defense attorney did himself no favors. He proved himself to be as repellent as his client.
The witness was answering the questions. The attorney was just manufacturing bs. There was no difficulty in communication.
This attorney is so freaking arrogant! He acts so ENTITLED!
in fact Alex and his team complete entitlement from the get go
Nasty, overbearing. Would hate to be his wife
Imagine living in a small town in SC. This is the uniform behavior of every entitled Ahole you come across 😩😩😩 I absolutely hated growing up in SC
But apparently a lot of locals like his style. Which is strange seeing as most normal human beings would find his approach very off putting.
You know he is also a sitting South Carolina State Senator.
I understand the point of the defense, which is to create doubt, any doubt. But good lord, this just made Dick look like a dick, and doubt the jury will appreciate that. Does more harm than good in my opinion.
‘Dick’ is aptly named.
The judge didn't seem amused either.
Dick is the one saying this is moving too slow and then wastes time asking questions that don’t create doubt for his client.
@@t2thepisha I’d agree. If anything, Dick repeatedly admitted his client is a liar, addict and thief.
"Dick look like a dick". 🤣😂 Love it!
So uncomfortable. Why is he asking him these questions when he is clearly not a medical professional
And he keeps saying I'm not a doctor.
Sounds like the defense attorney is trying to trip him up .
He's trying to get the interview dismissed on the basis that Alec was on drugs. Funny thing is, he was totally coherent. Allegedly, he's been living life on drugs for years and is used to conducting himself just fine.
defense is an ass trying to discredit the witness.
Deflect deflect deflect. Confuse and deflect when you're out of the truth.
SLED officer almost started laughing at the cheeky and unprofessional questions.
These 2 defense attorneys are rich sociopaths. They really go the extra mile for one of their own.
Defense is a pain. No evidence of Alex being at two rehab places. No evidence. Florida could provide him enjoying the weather and staying away from his state.
What a rude man this Lawyer is! Can’t he do his job without making a fool of himself in such an aggressive manner. Police officer is so professional and emphatic - well done.
Agree!!! His arrogance is only hurting his client .
You would want that lawyer on your side. Goes for the Jugular
It's a courtroom, not a church.
I want this "rude" man fighting for my freedom
@@viewerpet12 after putting your opinion and mine’s aside, it’s the jurors that don’t appreciate that style of questioning. Jurors are normal people- most likely without a legal background and whether we like it or not their decision is partially influenced by their internal moral compass ( besides the facts presented, of course!) So it does matter to be an educated, firm, informed , prepared AND decently fair lawyer. Thank you !
A subdural hematoma is NOT a Brain bleed dude!
Lori Knaggs ...thank you for saying this! I have been thinking the EXACT same thing! 😲
Right?! Basically, his head was bleeding. His brain was intact...as intact as it gets.
Omg, he twists, embellishes so much I think he's losing some credibility
Shhh..,..don't tell Harpo that......let him dig that hole 😂
Well I mean, it’s a collection of blood in the dura mater. So yeah, it’s not an intracerebral hemorrhage, as it’s occurring between the outer layer of the brain and the surface of the brain- but it can still cause significant damage to the brain via swelling (leading to increased ICP) and possibly a subsequent midline shift. If a non-medical professional calls it a brain bleed, that’s honestly not a huge deal, as a lot of SDH’s do result in some degree of brain damage- just like other types of bleeds that we ultimately classify as ‘brain bleeds’ (EH, SAH, ICH, IPH). Nitpicking the layers of the brain isn’t really necessary when explaining it to a non-medical professional (I say this as an RN in a Neuro ICU for the last 13 years). We can all understand the basic concept, which is that a collection of blood within the skull, whether it be in the epidural space, subdural space, subarachnoid space, etc. can ultimately lead to brain damage if bad enough.
I’m not defending Alex, I think he’s guilty, but I don’t think anyone should be shot in the foot for calling an SDH a brain bleed.
“Some of my best confessions have come from defense attorneys!”
when a lawyer acts so aggressively and acts as if the witness is the "accused" it turns people off.... he will help convict his client by making sure the jury hates him as well as his client
Exactly.
Some answers aren’t a yes or no. They need more info to answer
But you're supposed to answer yes or no then explain.
Well then answer YES or NO, and then explain
Why hasn’t the defense called a medical doctor to testify about Alex’s medical condition instead of testifying to that himself and jumping on the witness?
Most likely the defense will call Physicans . They barely have gotten started with their side of the case . The state just rested this afternoon
It’s the states case. They call their witnesses first. Then the defense calls witnesses.
Probably because they have not presented their case. You have been watching the state’s case against him. He has just started his defense after this man finished testifying. We shall see what his defense case looks like starting Tuesday.
I’m not normally an ageist or anything like that…but this old fellow seems to be one of those old men that are used to being able to push people around and kinda bully them into giving them whatever answers or results they want and when they want it. He’s not used to having someone like SA Kelly or even the judge telling him no or doing it their way. I bet his boxers were all kinda twisted during this. Reminds me of how my grandfather and his brothers would behave and treat people.
Do you know who he is? Because you described him to a t! He's a very powerful man in S.C. and yes, is quite the entitled ass.
yes sir.
Criminal defense. That’s his game he’s a southern jerk
Hon his drawers were all kind of messed up today! He is an ole boy used to being alpha… back that bootie up Poot!!!
He was becoming so petty and bitchy, NOT a good look. It matters for the client if the jury hates his lawyer and Harpoodles is repulsive.
I retired with 32 years LEO experience. I was a Detective for 10 of those years. When the Defense Attorney tried those tricks on me by getting agitated and raising his voice, I would get right back at them. You don't have to sit on the stand and take crap like this. When that ass hat said I don't know why we are having a problem communicating I would have said it's because you are asking me to testify to medical terms that I am not qualified to answer. If you want answers to these questions perhaps you should subpoena the Dr that wrote the report. Judges will give you that much room. He is simply trying to get him to say something he can come back later and try to tie him up on. Good job Officer keep it simple. The prosecution should be taking the roof off with objections at this point.
You were a clown for 32 years
@@jackhendon1604 As you are right now.
Completely agree with you. I swear I would have snapped back "I don't appreciate your tone!" I would probably get myself in trouble up there.
@James Franks I worked in LE for many years. Kudos to this Officer for staying calm & professional. I worked for a large law firm prior to LE, and I really learned alot! Lol..*IMO Dick needs to retire.
@@Peacefullyatbeach104 Why are you worried about him, or is it the narrative of the defense you're at odds with?
This defense attorney is so full of himself. He is trying to get this highly-competent SLED agent to say something that he cannot agree with. The attorney is really obnoxious and cuts off the agent when he is trying to answer.
that’s what you have to do when the prosecution has dumped a load of crap in your back pocket and your client has nothing more to offer.
That's what I just said. And Dick isn't going to box this guy in. DH is being an ass, making himself very unlikable Not a good idea!
He's a bully.
That's his job.
Wow Lawer wants his way but he is swimming upstream
This defence lawyer is impatient and aggressive. He is awful. Shame on him.
32:11 jaaaaysus christ on a pogo stick 😂. That defense lawyer is such a see you next Tuesday.
He has been like this the whole time the judge has to check him constantly. Harpooti probably wish this was all over defending a guilty man has to be draining so you take it out on everyone. He should recuse himself

Is he a senator?
@@unapologeticallyauthentic if he is a senator South Carolina voters need to vote the old arrogant fart out of office and stop using him for a lawyer….he was yawning and dozing off several different days…..he has been a bully long enough put him in retirement.
The defense in this case must try everything they can to attack and critisize witnesses, formal handling, procedures etcetera, because the undeniable circumstances are so damning for the defendant.

Funny how all the attorneys not appearing on sensationalism cable tv are saying the state didnt prove anything... But all the people in the comments are calling him guilty when he hasnt even had his defense yet. You people are sick.
The defense attorney is making it very clear that one has to bend every ounce of truth to give his client a chance at not being found guilty. Good on the officer for not being swayed by this nonsense!
I love this judge!! He is a class act!
Damn! I love this Agent! Straight to the point and doesn't back down an inch for this Grade A asshole defense attorney. We need more people like you in this world Sir!❤❤❤

@@SingleMom718 Thank you. I am however wondering who pissed in the defence attorneys coffee that morning😂 He went after this Agent as if he is the one on trial. But if he did his research properly he would've known that any person in the medical field is not allowed to give out any information without a court order due to HIPPA. Damn i live in South Africa ( One of the worlds most corrupt countries) and i know that
“Straight to the point” only when the prosecution is asking him questions though
@@DaleQueen if you listened to the questions that was asked it was impossible to answer with yes and no but needed a better explained answer. The defense was grasping at straws as they know their defended is guilty and wanted to discredit this witness

I agree. Why dosen't the judge change that.
He should have shackles also. He has special treatment all around
they should stand when they come in also
Also most for the Judge too
....Narcissists DON'T have respect for others
Ya well murdaugh is obviously from satan's spawn
His attorneys are going to lose this for him. They act like they have never tried a case before.
hope so!!
I just read today that Harpoolian and Griffin, Alex’s defense attorneys, used to be prosecutors.
I was just thinking the same thing. If I was a jury member I would be so disgusted.
What a punch-able old man the defense attorney is.
Totally agree
Hahaha!!! I just posted something similar!
That may be what's wrong with him....punch drunk 😂
He's a politician of course.
Something seems fishy around this “drug use”.
Oh I agree, very fishy.
I don't think he had a drug problem. Might have tried it at times, but no big doper. Ppl would have known.
I think AM laundered money in drug trafficking
I think it's a total cope. Not true at all. He was hiding, and using it as an excuse for the disappearing money.
I think he was a drug dealer as well as his cousin no way could he use that amount of drugs and still be able to funtion...
THE MOST DISRESPECTFUL THING IS MurDog DOES NOT STAND FOR THE JURY! Everyone in the court room stands but him!

Agree! This attitude is tactical, he’s trying to get witness to become pissed off!
Good ol boys
What does Friday have to do with anything?
When you are defending a killer who you can't really defend, insult credible witnesses who expose the killer and act like an overall jerk because you look absolutely foolish
Exactly just like Amber heard team they were so nasty to Johnny and everyone because they haven’t got a case
The defense Attorney should have had that SAME ENERGY when he ALLOWED AM to give the statement VIA PHONE
I think it’s more of an old school boomer method of lawyering. Clearly nowadays most ppl can recognize how cringe it is to bully and harass ppl in court like this. Also just makes the person they’re defending look guiltier.
@@deenaweeks5837 Exactly! I thought that was ridiculous to allow that especially since his client is guilty as all get out. He and AM sounded stupid and incompetent
This defense attorney is incompetent and is a bully!
This defence lawyer is as arrogant and entitled as you can get. You can tell that he is used to having his own way, all the time. He was mispronouncing medical terms and expecting the officer to explain medical records. Wouldn't it be better to have a doctor or radiologist explain these things?? I hope that the lawyer's rudeness and aggression blows up in his face, through the jury's verdict.
This entire trial has just been so bizarre. Dick still thinks he is at the Senate all during this trial and the amount of hearsay testimony admitted without objection has just blown my mind. I have never seen an attorney invade the witness box or stand next to opposing counsel in the middle of questions.
I thought that was pushy.
The heat is being put on this witness and trying to confuse him but he's holding hos own a great witness I quess its only normal to do this from the defense side but this witness was very professional and did his work correct by all measures of law enforcement
I totally agree.
He's gone too far, it's not ok to harrass the witness!
@@Bebold94 the defense knows they didn't prove a innocent verdict the defense was some what out of line with harshness to this sled AGENT BUT HE DIDNT BREAK A OUT STANDING JOB THIS SLED AGENT DONE
His name is beyond appropriate.
I hope the jury can see through this callous defense attorney.
They got to see him manhandled by this agent 😂
I was truly impressed with this guy. I had low expectations of anyone from SLED based on their previous relationship with the family. But he proved me wrong. Very cohesive and collected.
How infuriating and smug! "WHAT, is a subdural hematoma?" He's so effing rude and doesn't let him finish 😤
Judge straightened his azz right out 😂
Money, greed, power. If you are detoxing from a 20 year addiction to opioids you would be in rehabilitation a lot longer.
That defense attorney acts like he go into Alex's opioids....rude, zero patience. You get more with honey than vinegar.
Wow if the defense would have allowed that detailed answer at the beginning, we could have all saved 15 minutes of our lives.
WOW. This agent did absolutely incredible. The look of defeat on the defense attorneys face after badgering the witness for almost five minutes is absolutely golden. There’s no question that this case has fallen far away from them, and they know it.
Did incredible? The witness played dumb and just tried to cause complete confusion for the defense.. why wouldn’t he just answer the questions directly if he wasn’t trying to persuade for the prosecution?
@@DaleQueen I think you have it twisted here. The defense is the manipulator in the situation, not the witness. As I stated, the case has fallen far away from the defense. Harpootlian was doing everything in his power to try and discredit the witness, and the witness stopped him in his tracks each and every time.
@@nick_robertsn I do not hav wit twisted. I think the defense set themselves up badly by opening the door to the attempted suici*** by Alex.. but don’t confuse that with the witness intentionally avoiding the questions… did you not see in the video the witness acting completely oblivious to simple questions that he had no problem answering for the prosecution?
Why is his lawyer being so aggressive. He tried to rattle this officer but couldn’t.
And he and his team refuse to stand for the jury, that is completely disrespectful and the judge needs to address that. Isn’t this the “good old south?”
I have lived in the south for most of my 62 years and I have never heard of it called " the good old south". Dont know you got that one.
Shows his entitlement and how narcissistic he and his attorneys, they need to be admonished.
They have all been standing for the jury, you just have selective vision.
@@jackhendon1604 negative
@@jackhendon1604 no,they have not, the jury left out yesterday and those bastards on the defense side did not stand.
Interesting how the attorney didn't bother to look up the proper pronunciation of "parietal", while he's trying to sound smart. It's not "PARA tee uhl", sir. It's "pah rye etal". 🙄
The special agent did an excellent job handling the unnecessarily argumentative attorney. Very professional.
My thought exactly!
Yes, stood his ground and wasn't going to be intimidated.
It was driving me crazy that Harpoodles referred to a scalp laceration/hematoma as a brain injury. The special agent probably thought this old boy is gonna blow a pile in his diaper if I correct him so I'll just let it go.
@Flyover Urban Garden
LMAO. Harpoodles.
@@flyoverurbangarden4315
Right? I noticed that right away. I was like, hold on, hold on. Why is this agent being asked medical questions? Even he got it wrong. This was a laceration to the skull, not a brain injury. Who looks dumb now?
I hope a lot of law enforcement agencies learn from this case that giving leeway and privileged treatment to suspects will make an ass of you in court. All suspects, rich or poor, black or white should be treated the same under law.
💯
Yes !!! EXACTLY I 💯 agree! I've said all along, if this man gets away with this murder, it will be because the people who were sent there to secure justice, failed to treat this situation exactly the same way as anyone else would have, the fact that these men are still operating this way after all this time is disgusting!
By the end, I had the distinct impression that the judge was about one more question from going off on Mr. Harpoolian.
Yes the last objection by the state got a firm sustained by the judge, and when questioned by Harpootlian got another firm sustained!
This defense attorney is badgering the witness. What is going on in this courtroom????
Ryan Kelly is a good testifying person .
During the testimony of the gun shot to the head identified as a furrow was probably a grazing - abrasion. The scalp area will bleed a lot as a result. If he had had a brain bleed, that would have been more serious with more recovery time. The witness seemed reluctant to say AM had a brain bleed & Harpootlian kept pushing. I don’t like the way this attorney twists the words. What a waste of time!
Jfc. This defense attorney raises my blood pressure with his supreme rudeness and trying to strong-arm witnesses. No amount of talking over people is going to change what is going to be said.
Hahaha. Have you never seen a cross-examination before? It's supposed to be a long line of more or less 'yes/no/I don't know' answers. But this witness refuses to give a straight answer to the questions so it takes forever to get anywhere.
It should go like this:
Q: Do you know Alex suffered a skull fracture, brain bleed etc?
A: Yes.
Q: Do you know that was caused by a gunshot?
A: Yes.
But this guy was so defensive so instead it went:
Q: Do you know Alex suffered a skull fracture, brain bleed etc?
A: I am not able to force the medical personnel to show me his medical records. So on September 4th I was not able to read his medical records.
Q: Did they tell you he had suffered a skull fracture, brain bleed etc?
A: I was not provided with his medical records.
Q: Did you ask for them?
A: I am not able to force the medical personnel to show me his medical records.
Q: So you didn't ask?
A: I am not able to force the medical personnel to show me his medical records.
Q: Did they tell you he had suffered a skull fracture, brain bleed etc?
A: I don't remember.
Q: So ignoring September 4th, do you now know he suffered a skull fracture, brain bleed etc?
A: I'm not sure.
And then that very first question eventually gets answered from translating the medical records which he pretended to not understand, even though he obviously have had that explained to him during his investigation.
Well if the witness would just answer YES or No, and THEN explain...
This agent's testimony should be played in the curriculum of how to be an effective witness in a trial! Well done and thank you for your service sir!!
Special agent Kelly, Harpootlian, and most of the people in the courtroom know that a doctor will not discuss a patient with someone who is not an immediate relative.
He is so arrogant and demeaning. When he asks the sept6, " do you understand what that means ? Like he's stupid. . He has that entitled attitude that Alex has.
While at the same time mispronouncing "parietal" over and over. 🙄
He may be tipsy 😜
This defense attorney needs to retire. AM is a criminal bottom line, needs to be locked up for life, no parole.
Innocent until Proven Guilty
Not guilty. Bet the farm.
U lost the farm
@@melanielange5079 lol 😂
@@melanielange5079 you go lose some weight.
The Defense Attorney is trying to rattle this witness, by being condescending, but I believe the witness has his number, and handled it, JUST RIGHT.😉👍🏼
The scary thing is only one disagreeing juror would yield no justice for the victims.
This is incorrect. One disagreeing juror would result in a mistrial, and a second trial likely in about 4 months. Only if all 12 agree on innocent do you get acquitted.
Can't believe the prosecution is letting the Defense Atty question a law enforcement officer as if he's a medical expert. Crazy.
But the LEO is handling his own very well.
You don't interrupt a lawyer when he's hurting his case and client 😂
Crazy how in the US you can get to a level of wealth where you can just leave the state and refuse to answer questions in person.
