TL;DR Summary

Investigators in the murder trial of Alex Murdaugh recovered a crucial cellphone video that captured his voice at the scene of the crime, despite months of difficulty accessing the locked device. The passcode to the phone was as basic as Paul Murdaugh's birthday, but it took time to crack. The video, taken by Paul and stored on his phone, showed that Alex was present at the dog kennels where his wife and son were fatally shot. The discovery of the video shattered Alex's alibi and played a significant role in his conviction.
