Well, he was acquitted after five hours of deliberation, so it must have been pretty convincing. As for how they responded to that specific quote, I’m not sure, as that- while a true quote- didn’t occur in the courtroom. I looked into it further and the first mention I can see of it is in the San Bernardino County Sun on Friday, June 5th, 1970, and he said it to reporters.

@PrinceHabib72 damn, what happened to the guy that accused him of shooting?
He’d been in and out of the legal system for violence both before and after the Murphy trial. As for where he is now, I have no clue.
@PrinceHabib72 Damn, Audie Murphy was some serious badass
