Oh come on, this has some special flavor. Its like if Southerners were mafia but not as good at it. There's some strange folks down there. |
What a provincial idjit you are. |
Agree - some bizarre people out of the deep south! |
The Kennedy family, anyone? |
Not any more bizarre than Epstein, Trump, Wiener, John Gotti, Brian Walshe, Robert Durst, and David Berkowitz...all from New York. |
| Can y’all idiots please stop with the thread derailment? Let’s keep this focused on the walking horror of Alex Murdaugh. |
I get that he did the finamcial crimes. Do you think he killed hisvwife and son? I just can't imagine his other son sitting in court through all this testimony and watching his dad cry. |
Do you think it was just some random killer who happened to kill them in the 10-15 minutes between when that video with his voice was recorded at the kennels and him leaving the house to visit his moms on the day he was confronted by his firm about missing money and he just conveniently forgot he wasn't napping like he said? |
What would be his reason for killing them? |
Anyone who has even an iota of interest in this story should listen to Mandy Matney’s podcast, “The Murdaugh Murders.” She is a journalist who’s been investigating the family since Paul’s boat crash in 2019. She gets deeply into the financial crimes and also helps set the stage for why AM might have wanted to kill his wife and son. Basically, he had painted himself into a corner by stealing millions in legal fees from clients, and he was just about to be found out. Paul was the reason he was being sued; Maggie had assets that would go to him; and their deaths—if they were caused by someone else—would garner sympathy and ease the pressure that was coming from the boat crash survivors’ lawsuits against Alex and Buster. |
+1. I believe he killed them for these reasons. Or, he only intended to kill Maggie and then he came upon the son. Either way I believe he’s guilty guilty guilty. |
| My husband is from Hampton county. This family has been acknowledged as powerful and corrupt for at least 2 generations. You don’t cross them. He got out as soon as he could. |
Wow, disgusting to kill your own child and wife for sympathy. Unbelievable. |
| Was the father on drugs? |
