Clerking for Newman is a true privilege, one that Williams is worthy of. I hope she shares her story once this trial is well in the rearview - we all could learn a thing or two from Judge Newman.
Can we pause to give credit to this beautiful, smart, hardworking lawyer? Gabrielle Williams, Esquire- law clerk to the Honorable Clifton Newman. She is stunning, she is brilliant and she is most definitely the next generation of SC Lawyers 🏆

Dr Ellen Reimer is educating the jury about these horrific injuries using clinical but engaging terms, without giving in to the grotesque nature of it. If I were a juror struggling with the images, I’d find her comforting. She’s a consummate professional and a great educator.

I don't hear this discussed enough, Paul certainly wasn't a cheap son, and his legal defense would doubtlessly be financially burdensome.
@dnolan2000
After he murdered his son Paul, Alex had a balance remaining on monies that had already been paid to the Harpootlion team hired to defend Paul Murdaugh. People that say Alex had no reason to murder his wife and son are wrong. Paul's defense alone was costing Alex a fortune.
