innocence twice, i love my wife, i love my wife and my son, i would do nothing to harm them. you said alex murdaugh is likely to appeal, what did he say in court today? like i said, hejust professed his innocence twice, but the judge said during his sentencing, look, yourfamily and your ancestors have prosecuted many people in this state and sent many people to their deaths for much lesser crimes then you ve committed, really indicating that if he had the choice, he would ve given alex murdaugh a capital sentence for this crime. so that was pretty dramatic, and also during that sentencing, that s also when alex murdaugh stood up and said he maintained his this recorded about ten minutes before maggie and paul shot dead. you can hear murdaugh s choice on that. he had to change his story that. he had to change his story that went out very badly the jury. the former uk prime minister boris johnson may have repeatedly misled parliament over social gatherings held at downing street
thank you. i really appreciate that. and that s so true. okay, what do you what do you say plus, i love my wife, so reporter: and justice thomas told cnn s jamie langel in 2016, his wife is his rock. some people could put your life on a worse course, some people could take your life on a better course. my wife put mine on a better course. reporter: she had outspoken conservative commentary in that daily caller interview. as a judge, you don t get to be on one team or the other. you have to think independently in order to live up to the oath you take. and the best part of being a justice? first of all, it s it would be impossible without you. i have to be honest. and justice thomas and his wife have been married since 1987.
loving husband who made a deadly mistake? or a killer trying to cover his tracks? that was the central question as the people vs. lars itzo began in december 2016. the stakes were high. if lars was convicted of murder he could face up to 99 years in prison. if he was convicted of manslaughter, as few as two. we never for a second believed that he didn t know who that was standing in front of him. reporter: but the prosecutors knew proving intentional murder wouldn t be easy. reporter: especially in this case though, where you have someone saying, i did it, i confess. but it was accident. i love my wife. yeah, we were we were aware of that and we were willing to accept that challenge. reporter: lars s attorneys, david phillips and tamara cochran-may believed their client and thought the jury would too. this was simply a terrible accident. when i first met lars, i could see his remorse. and after speaking with him, i said, this man didn t do anything on purpose. rep
