Does anyone know of an honest lawyer?
It's now 2024: 9 min in and a few errors already in the first reporting here: #1 Alex dad was in the hospital but he went to visit Mom at her home in Almeda #2 The firm or at least the gossip w/i it probably did know about the pills, although Alex likely lied about the quantity of his habit during his murder trial. You can be on a reasonable amount of opiates w/o seeming or being strung out. #3 The firm did not know about the financial crimes. That became obvious over time. They fired him (before his arrest for the murders); got an outside auditor; the crimes were cutting into their own income so they would not have turned a blind eye to that; they ended up having to dig very deeply into their own pockets to restitute the accounts; 10:56 One person (you) hear indignance and another (me) hears nothing but the answer to it. omg. and then really? you go on about it and I am presuming soon, Paul's conversation about Gloria's injuries in which he asks the operator to "quit asking him all these questions" (which he obviously cannot answer). I would have hung up by then, myself and got back to the victim. Anyway, even the investigative cops later in an interview with ABC actually used Paul's conversation w 911 'to demonstrate' how HIS WAS "a natural response". You can see that interview with the 3 local investigators on ABC Channel on You Tube. There is a Part 1 (where it's poor audio of the interviewer) and Part 2. on You Tube titled "Full Interview (Part 2) Murdaugh Murder Investigators speak candidly after trial." I forget which part has the discussion of Paul's 911 call.
If someone had killed my family and I find my loved ones dead – I would be so panicked running or hiding cuz who knows😮 if the killer was still around ?? If I was innocent –
My husband is originally from Jasper county and the Murdaughs and Lafittes were their lawyers and bankers.
They killed that housekeeper so they could file a claim on the insurance. No wonder Gloria kids didnt a coin.
I think someone came up on Steven after he ran out of gas ,hit him with a baseball bat and made it look like he had been walking on the road and then got hit by car. And VERY strange how Stephen, Maggie, Paul AND the housekeeper ALL die because of head injuries…….
There’s no way he could be taking hundreds of pills a day; he would have overdosed! No, he cut the tire with Cousin Eddie’s knife, then AM tossed tossed it on the shoulder of the road in the grass. Since been revealed AM had NO life insurance!
This is a perfect example of how the elite function and control the system of abuse that pervades the entire planet.
I find this video very cruel. You’re saying what you would do and how you’d treat the 911 operator, geeze, you HAVE NO IDEA how you’d react since you didn’t go through a murder of your family members. 😢
Drone footage showed him removing guns matching the weapons used on his wife and son from the house. He said he doesn’t know where they went to
Apparently buster was seeing Stephen occasionally in a sexual sense and buster hushed him up 🤷♀️ . The poor mama and Stephen 💔 heartbreaking
It will never not be funny how absolutely MORTIFIED Alex was on the 911 call when the dispatcher asked him if the address was a house or a mobile home!! 😂🤣
Paul was a narcissist, most likely.. his attitude is no surprise.
I dont understand why Ana laughs when shes talking about these horrible things. I cant tell if its just discomfort over the topics or what, but it makes me a little uncomfortable. I coukd just be misunderstaning her vibe though, idk.
If you haven't listened to the jailhouse calls between Alex and Buster, they are so weird. The things he was worried about were so odd. He truly thought he was going to walk away from that court room, his ego would not even allow him to consider he needed to gwt used to jail life.
I believe he wanted to get rid of his " trouble son".
It seems likely that Paul was too big a liability that even Alec’s position could get him out off so he just shot him for being a spoilt pain in the back side. Wonder how much son and wife were insured for?
I like your show but on this one I don't agree with everything in this episode. First I want to say Paul did get a little ill with the 911 operator. But if you notice as soon as she let him know help was on the way he resumed answering questions. Paul loved her very much. She practically raised him and she was probably the closest person to him. She was in fact the only person he carried a picture of in his wallet. All people don't know help is on the way and think the 911 operator is delaying care. Paul had a very hard time with her death. Please go back and watch the Netflix document. All his friends knew how devastated he was over Gloria. They were very close and shared alot. Paul was probably closer to her than any other person.
Also I have watched the entire trial many things and if you guys would have watched it you would know there were not any portraits of the Murdaugh prosecutors hanging in that courtroom. The judge had ordered those removed before the trial began. I think this was created before trial and I just wish the errors were adjusted before posting.
Yowza! What a case!
Murdaugh family was not so well-known to everyone in the area. The 911 operators had no idea who they are. Just saying…
DEATH PENILTY!!! 😡🤬😠
This POS Scumbag better get the DEATH PENILTY & do it as soon as he is found GUILTY of the MURDERS of his Wife & Son & other Victims that he stole MILLIONS off his Clients…
He a Good boy
The young man found dead on the road is strange. Why??? Unless he had some form … let's say.. embarrassing connection.. to the Murdaughs. Has it been looked into if the son who was shot along with his mother was gay? Perhaps that's the motive? The young man knew something that was deemed as embarrassing.
As for the entire case.. you couldn't make it up if you tried. Alex Murdaugh doesn't strike me as drug lord, but I know that one of my grandfather made vodka and other high percentage alcoholic drinks in his shed in a small village in Germany. Now this was illegal, but he never went to court for it. Reason: The village police officer, mayor and other people of power liked his produce and prices. Amusing to think of it, but drugs are a different kettle of fish and anyone who knows/knew would have had leverage on him. I'm thinking of the potential of blackmailing him. At some point, though, it all grew way over his head and out of control and he must have realised that he is no longer living in Wild West Times.
How did they not know he was strung out on opioids, because when your on them long enough your body gets use to them and you only take them to keep from getting sick. Take the pills before going into work and no one will ever know, its not like your high and falling all over. i know this because many people in my life were /are on them and you would never know. Now if they are shooting up you have track marks but pills you see nothing.
I think Curtis is telling the truth. Especially given how much Alex has lied about & as much as he lies!
I think when Maggie and Gloria were fighting on the stairs or by the stairs,, she pushed her or caused her fall/death & possibly not accidentally..Could explain her tone, etc on the 911 phone call!
Dr. Judy Ho say’s a lot of nothing 100% of the time
Thank you TRUTH SEEKERS..
Your time and work is so appreciated
I have a question. If he no longer is licensed and he is helping jail mates, is he not practicing without a license???
It was a WEEK that her body was in the creek not days!! When you have a show YOU HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO BE ACCURATE !!
I WONT BE HRTE AGAIN SINCE YOU FAILED TO GET THAT STRAIGHT UOU WILL GET NOTHING STRAIGHT
As far as Paul’s conversation with the 911 person I think you blew it out of proportion. 911 callers ask a million questions and you want help now. The average person doesn’t realize someone is on the way in the meantime. That’s my guess…
The Judge didn't move the trial and he had the picture of Alex Murdaugh's grandfather removed before the trial began
