South Carolina Murdaugh murder saga winds towards its end

No confession, no murder weapon, no witnesses - and yet the case against Alex Murdaugh, 54, has been convincingly argued

Four weeks of prosecution testimony in the Alex Murdaugh double-murder trial has finished as the twisting case which has gripped America with its bloody story of southern gothic horror winds towards an ending.

After calling more than 60 prosecution witnesses, and with the defense due to present its case next week, the case remains circumstantial, but Murdaugh's cause has suffered brutally over a month of gripping courtroom drama.
