Summary
Best friends Lisa Bunce and Sanda Andrews were sitting on the front porch of Sanda's Florida home after a night out when 60 year old David Murdock pulled up and opened fire. Murdock shot Sanda once in the face, and shot Lisa a total of three times. He then walked outside, called 911, gave them the address, and told them he was sorry, he "had to get rid of the devil".
56 year old Lisa Bunce tragically lost her life that night, but Sanda- her best friend- survived to testify against Murdock.
It took more than 5 eventful years for this case to make it to a jury. During trial, Sanda gives emotional testimony and explains what happened that night. Then, Murdock shocks everyone when he takes the stand- and his defense, is NOT what I was expecting.

| 0:00.0 | Hi 13th jurors. This is your second bonus episode for the David Murdoch trial. The audio and video were not available for the trial after the second day. And David Murdoch took the stand in his own defense and it gets just kind of |
| 0:23.3 | out there, kind of crazy. And the cross-examination gets really spicy. So I got the transcripts from |
| 0:29.7 | the trial. I am actually going through all of this so that it can be read out loud on a bonus episode so that you can actually listen to it since |
| 0:40.1 | we didn't get to hear it. And it gets pretty crazy. So the last bonus episode that I did was the |
| 0:46.4 | direct and this is the cross-examination and the rebuttal. He also takes the stand again by choice during the penalty phase and also he addresses |
| 0:58.4 | Sanda directly in the courtroom and also Lisa's family. So there's a lot to this. Enjoy. |
| 1:15.6 | Good afternoon, Mr. Murdoch. Afternoon. |
| 1:16.6 | I listened to your direct testimony and I was struck by what a wonderful memory you do |
| 1:21.0 | have. |
| 1:22.0 | My understanding is that you recalled 2016 the day you met Lisa Bunce that you came out of your home and you ordered a |
| 1:30.0 | Coors Light and a bottle I think was your testimony do you remember that yes sir and I |
| 1:34.4 | think you told us that the first week that you took Lisa Bunce out to dinner on a |
| 1:38.6 | Tuesday night and on a Friday night that was yes sir that would have been back |
| 1:42.5 | in 2016 that when Lisa moved down here, |
| 1:45.5 | her grandson or adopted son, grandson, he was 12 at the time. You remembered how old he was. |
| 1:51.6 | I believe at that time. I just, I wrote down what you said. I'm just saying you, that you |
| 1:56.8 | remembered his, his age. 12 or 13 at the time. You remembered that the expensive mobile home for |
| 2:03.7 | $95,000 was in 1972. That seemed a bit old for that kind of money. Yes, sir. And that the day |
| 2:10.2 | that you came down to actually go look at the one that was kind of back on the market, |
| 2:16.9 | you got there at 1230 to look around when the |
| 2:19.9 | neighbor approached you. |
| 2:21.1 | Yes, sir. |
