🔴 LIVE: Prosecution Begins Case Against Meagan Jackson in River Dumping Murder Trial (SC v. Jackson)

🧵 Opening statements are underway in the murder trial of Meagan Jackson, accused of orchestrating the death of her ex-partner Gregory Rice with the help of her alleged lover — a Deputy Coroner. Prosecutors say Jackson used her connections inside the system to cover up the crime. Today, jurors hear the first wave of forensic evidence, cell data, and the story of a body dumped along the Little Pee Dee River — wrapped in a tarp and weighed down with concrete.

🎥 This stream captures the first full day of trial proceedings, including jury instructions, both opening statements, and the start of witness testimony.

🧠 Prosecutors intend to show this was a premeditated killing, pointing to surveillance footage of the deputy coroner buying the exact tools used to dispose of the body — days before Rice was reported missing.

❤️‍🔥 At the heart of the case is a love affair: Meagan Jackson and Deputy Coroner Christopher Dontell, who now turns state’s witness after taking a plea deal in December 2024. His cooperation is expected to be the linchpin of the State’s theory — but will jurors find him credible?

💬 Defense attorneys argue Jackson was manipulated, not murderous — and that Dontell acted alone. With charges including murder, kidnapping, conspiracy, and child neglect, the stakes for Jackson couldn’t be higher.

👁️‍🗨️ What the jury sees today:
