Nathaniel David Rowland, 27, stands trial for allegedly murdering Samantha Josephson, 21. Court is held in Richland County, South Carolina. You can watch in the player above.
Josephson, a student at the University of South Carolina, got into a vehicle that she believed was her Uber in the early morning of March 29, 2019, according to police. She was found dead in Clarendon County the next day, stabbed more than 30 times.
Rowland was pulled over in his Chevy Impala, and he ran, officials have said. Josephson’s phone and blood were in the car, investigators said. There were also cleaning supplies, with the child locks engaged, according to authorities.
“I can not fathom how someone could randomly select a person, a beautiful girl and steal her life away,” Samantha’s mother Marci Josephson said in a statement to the court in 2019, according to Live 5 News. “His actions were senseless, vile and unacceptable. It sickens us to think that his face was the last thing that my baby girl saw on this earth.”
Samantha’s parents started the #WhatsMyName campaign and is working to pass “Sami’s Law” in South Carolina, which would require ride-share drivers to be clearly identified before passengers enter the vehicle.
Rowland’s family has insisted on his innocence. He was passed out at a house party the night Josephson was abducted, his cousin Trey Elmore told South Carolina newspaper The State in an April 2019 report.
Rowland’s father Henry Rowland shared the second-hand story with WACH around the same time. In this account, Nathaniel Rowland woke up to find his keys were gone, but discovered his vehicle outside. The keys–and blood–were inside. His father said that if this story were true, then it was a mistake not to call 911. It was also a mistake to run during the traffic stop.

I just can’t believe he actually took this to trail! The defense attorney had no argument because they knew he was guilty the evidence was enough! They honestly had no choice but to repeat questions 😂😂😂
-
This case could've turned out very differently for Maria Howard if not for this amazingly thorough investigative team. Be careful who or WHAT you bring in your home around your babies ! 🙏
-
This guy did the worst job of "cleaning up." He must have thought he would never be caught, let alone so quickly.
-
He looked at all the evidence but once they got to the murder weapon, he looked down. So guilty
-
36:37: Nathaniel: "Psst. Hey, guy sitting next to me... Why do all these people think I'm a horrible person?" Guy sitting next to Nathaniel: "Because you are a horrible person"
-
He'd be better off changing his plea, he's not going to erase this evidence.
-
Defense is ridiculously, unnecessarily objecting. They might as well stand up and say "We object to every part of this trial" so they can get it out of their system.
-
He’s killing over and over in his head EVERY time he looks at an attractive woman. You can tell he’s disassociating and splintering. He’s definitely either done this before or… Well I think he’s done it before.
-
He was so sloppy. He had these urges to kill but had probably never killed before. He is such a monster for what he did to a random girl just trying to get home.
-
So sorry the family had to look at all that evidence. It was hard for me to view it. This case is so sad. I hope the woman has a healthy happy baby. What a hard day for her being so far along in her pregnancy. My back hurts just looking at her. Saddest case ever

-
Dummy had the nerve to have a hat that had cold blooded on it
-
Nate trying to look like an intelligent business executive with his legal pad and multi coloured sticky notes...
-
So much evidence!! Yet again the defense just making statements of facts already told 🤦🏼♀️.
-
Its annoying when the defense keeps objecting as regards to the Fondation and the prosecutor and the witness has to repeat themself
-
Nate, probably thinking, dang, I'm going to be on America's dumbest criminals.🤣🤣🤣
-
The rustle of evidence bags is the best ASMR!
-
The defendant looks so heartless as if he has no worries in the world. I hope she haunts him every second of everyday.
-
Defence, do you have any questions with substance?
