WALTERBORO, S.C. (WMBF) - Disbarred Lowcountry attorney Alex Murdaugh took the stand for a second day Friday, facing hours of cross-examination and new questions at his murder trial.

During his first day on the stand Thursday, he admitted that he lied to authorities about where he was the night Maggie and Paul died. However, he insisted he had nothing to do with their deaths.

On Friday, he continued to face cross-examination from the state and recalled the night Maggie and Paul were killed. He was also pressed on his alleged financial crimes, in which he repeatedly admitted to taking money that did not belong to him.
