South Carolina politics is kinda baffling. Evidently Colleton County and Hampton County share a solicitor (prosecutor). I'm used to the one-county-one-DA system.

It turns out the prosecutor, Creighton Waters, plays guitar and has been playing since age 15. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGRUGZzwCgI

As a student of the English language, I find it interesting that Murdaugh's name is Alex, and it's pronounced Elek, even by fellow lawyers. Whenever I watched the trial, I was interested by southern speech and southern culture. (Culture is too big a word, but you know what I mean.)
