Imagine riding around with your son for a couple of hours, eating dinner with your son and wife knowing what you were about to do. Diabolical.
I think about that so often!! He had plenty of time to change his mind.
a guilty person will always give a lot of details around things irrelevant to the investigation and be vague on direct questions
so true.
I soooo agree!
Has anyone counted how many times he says “ya know” in place of details 😂
they should put you on the case!
smoke and mirrors
Alec says..."I want to know exactly what happened" only because he wants to know what the detective knows. An innocent man would demand WHO killed his wife and son.
Apparently, one of these men don't understand how Kleenex works. Sniff, sniff, sniff. Ugh
What I love MOST about this video (though it’s dark), is you can see Alex try and manufacture lies in REAL time when the detective asks him questions. And when the detective demolishes the plausibility of those lies because he’s already DONE the thorough homework, you can tell Alex grows more nervous by the minute. 👱🏻♂️: I left work early 👮🏼♂️: We checked your card/spoke to Randy 👱🏻♂️: I only think we lost 2 guns… 👮🏼♂️: spoke to John. You didn’t sign the 3rd 👱🏻♂️: I don’t think I changed clothes… 👮🏼♂️: We have video of you at dusk 👱🏻♂️: I wasn’t at the kennel… 👮🏼♂️: spoke to Rogan. He heard your voice 😰: um…uh… 👮🏼♂️: Ammo matches your ammo 😳: ………. 👮🏼♂️: Any questions? 😭: ….Mags…Paw Paw… Alex literally looks like he ate a strawberry from the Wonka Factory by the end of the interrogation. 🥵
Strawberry?
@@JLYVE89 what happens when you steal a blueberry from the Wonka factory?
After reading this comment I looked after Alex face an noticed yeaaa it was getting flushed up😆😆😆😆😆
😂😂😂😂😊
😂
Alex just told on himself, saying obviously there was no one else out there 🤣😂😂
Damn...didn't catch that..
@@Anninukichild yup it's around 34:00-36 ish mark
@@Lau_rynn he said it in the interrogation as well
I caught that too. Smh
He meant while he was there at the time he discovered the bodies.
The forced sniffling is disgusting
Watching this after the verdict is really horrifying.
to me too
DID You CATCH THE JUDGES Words before the reading of verdict? Or after when he addresses Alec??? Hands down best disrespect Alec deserved ten times over, that I have witnessed in a while… great judge. Phenomenal speaker
Same here - first time I'm watching the whole thing. It IS horrifying. And a terrific interrogation just trying to really nail down the facts and hecause Alex was lying it slowly became clear.
Sameeeee!!!!
@@JeanineH yesss superb
The more Alex talks, the deeper he digs his own grave. 😂
In the name of helping. Those silent moments kills him bc he wakes up talking. I can't stand his type.
So slimy...
He doesn't know when to SHUT up!
That's what narcissistic jerks does, they looove to talk about themselfs but when they do, they end up in the snake hole 😂
He has a good memory for the details that help him, but can’t remember a damn thing that might be slightly incriminating. Hopefully he’s having a shitty day in prison.
My dad has been dead since 2001. He had cancer and was dying. He liked me with him at night and my mother during the day. The night before he died I recall what I carried to eat that night, what I was wearing, what his nurse looked like, how i powdered his feet with baby powder, what we talked about, his exact words when telling me goodbye, the feel of his hands that knew work, his yellow eyes from liver cancer that looked at me like I was his little girl again, the sound of the machines, the sound of the clock. He cried. I cried. I prayed for strength. The nurse left us alone in respect our last hours. His room was right across from the nurses station. I remember it all.
Same here Lucy. My Dad passed in 1997 from cancer. When you shared how he looked at you like you were his little girl again my tears began to flow. I cherish every moment, every word. It is forever burned into our brains.🙏🏻
I remember every single detail of the night my Mom died. It was her Birthday 60th. She had a massive heart attack and passed at home. I spoke with her.3 times that day. This was 1988.
@@ronnie4796Same. I’m 50 years old and would give anything to go back to the hospital to be with my dad, just to hold his hand and tell him how much I love him and thank him for always showing up and for not making me feel like I was a mistake; like my mom did. She just passed a few months ago. She never told me she loved me. Never corrected me when i said I understood why she didn’t want me. I went to be there with and for my sister, not for my mom. It eats me up for being with her her final days, and not my dad. He deserved it. She didn’t.
My two yr old son passed away, in march of 2000.. in an accidental drowning.. I can tell you what he ate that day, the last time he smiled at me, the way he felt in my arms, the last toy he played with,, what he had on, I can see that entire morning, bc I replay that day over and over and over... not because I want to! But because I'd give anything to change the way it ended. I do believe trauma can mess our minds up, if you ask me how long I held im in the ER, id say 20 mins, later I was told it was hours.. I remember so many things that we did prior, bc I replay them.. but his mind was damaged, the things he does not remember clearly happened BEFORE he was traumatized.. details in the middle of trauma slow down to a crawl, then after the go by like a blur... his crying goes from zero to 100 then back to zero.. it feels odd.. her sisters pain, her story, I could feel it, I literally felt the hurt for her mom... it felt right, genuine and 100% real.. I believe Alex is full of shyt... thats 100% my opinion, and if I'm right, he might want to get right w God before he keeps going this way!! He still has a child who is being torn apart by this entire thing, its horrible!
@@jcarroll135❤How terribly Sad, I’m so sorry,Tough tough loss 🫶🏻fifi
Two attorneys sitting there talking to cops, those are the two stupidest attorneys on earth.
They’re cocky and arrogant. “I’m smarter than a cop mental” But they were in a tough situation- had they not spoken with the cops - they knew it look suspicious. Shitty lawyers.
Cory flexing was pretty good. COREY is use to dealing with poor uneducated people while he and Alex rob them and thought he was a powerful lawyer for a moment lol. I hope he’s having a really shitty day in prison today.
Paul was soo intuitive .. He just knew something was up on that day. Bravo ''little detective '' Paul for solving your own murder. And Lordy .. I can't stand Alex's fake crying with No tears just BUSY Making irritating Noises..
That annoying sniffling made me mute it and use closed captions.
Unrelated, but can someone please tell me what the guy in the yellow shirt is wearing on his head/scalp?
He didn’t even have the “decency” to kill them with one shot to the head from behind so they wouldn’t even know what happened. He was probably trying to avoid getting splattered with blood and other goo, so he shoots Paul in the chest from a short distance, causing a non-incapacitating wound. Paul takes a few steps forward, and Pops shoots him again, this shot successfully killing him. I guess Alex was satisfied the deed was done when his son’s brain popped out and landed on the ground. And does this in front of his wife. As she’s rushing toward her son, he switches from shotgun to rifle and puts two rounds in her - one in the leg, one in the abdomen. She bends over from the pain, and seeing she’s not dead, he moves position and shoots her again. She goes down, but he apparently wasn’t satisfied she was dead, so he steps up and shoots her in the back of the head. So, yeah, both were fully aware they were being murdered and by whom.
Stop with the book! No one will read it!
Yes insane
Very sad and horrendous.😞Rip to Maggie and Paul🙏
Well he did wreck his boat after all, geez
To me, other than the Snapchat video , the most damning evidence is he asked the caregiver and Housekeeper to lie about the time he was there and the clothes he wore An innocent person would NEVER do that
An innocent person wouldn't delete stuff off their phone either.
All his call records.
My clothes also won’t go missing if I have nothing to do with my family dying.
If you were not guilty you would not ask people to lie for you.
Integrity is a prize possession, protect it no matter what.🙏🏽
Imagine standing there calmly talking to your dad and suddenly he opens fire on you. Totally horrific.
It hasn’t been proven, the trial is still on
@@caroldoyle8038 why would a father lie about being at the scene? Guilty as hell
@@Karenanneseven Among other damning evidence! The onstar and phone data sure paints a clear picture.
@@Johnnyprc Why lie about what time you last saw your child & spouse??? The guy was an out of control train, under enormous pressure, supposed drug addict & an ego as big as Texas.
@@Johnnyprc so drug addicts don’t murder people for their habit?
Watch his lawyer. You can tell as more information comes out during the interview, he looks at Alex to see if he's lying. By the end, you can tell that he realizes his client has been lying to him.
You are brilliant! Not.
IDK about that.....Cory Fleming (the lawyer) was just as shady and convicted of his own financial crimes
This was the kindest, most direct and least tricky, police interrogation ever!
White privilege!!!
If you watched the trial, you would know that they were collecting the missing pieces. Bees get more honey. They are using methodology on him. As an attorney I’m totally shocked he and or his atty continued this further without just waiting for discovery.
Maggie’s sister testified later on that Maggie said Alex asked her to return bc the both needed to go see Alex’s dad or mother and Maggie’s sister said she was reluctant to go to see her MIL or FIL. Here Alex says he went to his Mom’s alone, so why did he make his wife Maggie come all the way home, only to leave her at home while he went alone to go see his dad. I smell a rat. His story stinks.
There is more to it. While Maggie was already on her way home when her FIL got rehospitalized. She may not have gone to see her MIL bc she had a hard time doing that since she became very ill with Alzheimers. This was part if her sister's testimony as well. It is so confusing!
Good observation 👍 👌 I agree. That doesn't make sense at all!
@@RoeDarrigo Yes but the point here is that Alex insisted she come home for this visit, like it was important and Paul had to be there too. If they couldn't go, why did he go alone, and why did she stay back if she wanted to see her FIL at the hospital? Why didn't just Paul and Alex go? There was also no important reason given by Alex for the reason he wanted them both to visit the inlaws together in the first place. It was clearly an empty rouse.
They also know it's remote, has dogs, really dark, and like the cop said (not here) "they would have to know the property"
Both he and Maggie had been to see his parents the night before, when they took donuts his father had requested. That's what his mother's caregiver testified to.
He lured Maggie there. This was a very well thought out plan. He deleted messages , moved cars, took her phone. Texted her knowing she was dead. Washed floors, he did a whole lot before that 911 call. Pulled up to the kennels and called 911 20 sec later. Yet told them he discovered them and saw the bodies and then called. Impossible. He even knew how long it would take them to get out there. To the point he said he went to get a gun. Horrible man.
he knew she was going to divorce him......who knows what triggered that....he must be devastated by that....little by little his whole world was coming down
I agree 💯
Where are his weapons and clothes he had on?
He's a con man!!
He said whoever did it had thought about it a very long time…another indirect confession.
Any innocent person would of reacted incredelously saying "wait are you telling me they were killed by my guns?!?!?" Not just "ok"
This interview was very eye-opening. I was skeptical when he was initially charged, but the evidence has been overwhelming in this case. I cannot believe that he really thought that SLED would provide him and his legal team with information, so that they could gauge where they were in the case. That was mind blowing to me. The cellphone and On Star data were very damaging pieces of evidence.
Watching the trail. Seeing all his lies then coming back to the interrogation is jaw dropping. He’s such a liar!!
@@sunnyboknow Absolutely 💯
Right? My cousin was murdered and we got NO INFORMATION. Only the basics until the guy was convicted and it took nearly 5 years. Even after he pled they still refused share the case file and investigation findings. It’s been so so frustrating. Like, how is it ok that all these strangers can know what exactly happened to our loved one but we aren’t allowed to? So infuriating.
Great way to find out OnStar is still a thing. I remember the commercials in the early 2000s
Another book I will not read! Really?
Get this mother! He is guilty as hell!
The rocking motion and "guns stolen" he can provide serial numbers except for the shotgun that was used
Preach preach🤗😶
@@Anninukichild that’s suspect right there? Who has all those rifles and no records?🤔
LOL He also can't speak proper English for such a "prominent" individual. He is laughable and created two of the possibly most unattractive sons I have ever not had the pleasure to view. (God knows he's no looker either...)
This should be played for the Jurors in closing arguments , the World is watching & listening to Corruption at its finest
So his son was getting “threats” but he didn’t have security cameras or a security company like ADT on the property???
he didn't even mention the threats in the 1st interview until the cop brought it up
@Tonette Lewis I agree! My first thought was, pull the security camera footage.
After showing Alex the snapshot video of the tree with him possibly wearing the clothes and shoes he had on during the murders. Alex realizes that he is sinking fast. The "im not sure" answer when asked "was it that night" sums it up... Guilty as charged!
911 starts to record before the call is answered. AM doesn't start acting audibly distraught until the call is answered. That is very telling.
Thank god Bubba grabbed that chicken. It sealed Murdaugh as a liar. Good boy Bubba 🐶
In bubba's own way, he helped solve these murders
Am I the only one who gets the feeling that Alec spent that time with his son because he knew it would be the last time he would be able to…?
I thought that too. He seems very sentimental about that time like he knew it would be the last time he would see Paul.
It's a shame out he and his son was riding around when he knew he was going to kill him and his wife this man was a piece of work he did it!
Absolutely! I think the same thing for sure
Absolutely I’m surprised he told them that he spent 2hours with him he is a horrible man I don’t care what he says he either killed or he hired somebody to do it. He couldn’t help but make himself look like the best dad and husband. Everyone talked about how he was hard to get a hold of and he was always busy but this he has 2 hours to blow just riding around doing nothing with his son yeah I’m not buying it
I thought that for a brief moment and he said this 8:43 I was like Maahhhhhnnnn
He seemed extremely shocked when the guy told him about the Snapchat video and his different clothes. He had no idea that was coming.
Froze up
Great moment in video history! The best.
I commend this judge for his professionalism. He lost his own son (40 years old) right before this trial started. My deepest sympathy goes out to him and his family.
Oh WOW!😢
Who was his son? What happened?
@@AK-hw9ijI’ve seen other people say a heart attack
How awful for the Judge.
LOVE Judge Newman! He is so amazing 👏 He is just precious and so understanding,filled with wisdom and knowledge! May God bless him abundantly and keep him in health 🙏 ❤️ 💙
They should nickname him the “helpful killer” cause he wants to be seen as helping police try and catch “ whoever” did this. We all know who did it.
OJ is still looking for the real killers as we speak. 🤭
🤭🤭
Yup, two unknown executioners.
@@jellybean6778 Buster is that you??
He said he visited his Mother for 45 mins to an hour, but the caretaker said he was only there 15-20 minutes… HUGE time gap…
20-25 mins really huge!
Yep. He tried to coach her and pay for her wedding!
@@annaleathompson2702 and let her know he’s got a hook up at the school she works at!!
@@Kcourt1996 yup. Who does that?! Unless you stand to gain. She was smart and told the truth
@@Kcourt1996 Which worked as both a bribe and a veiled threat.
The sniffling, snorting and clearing his throat and the ums are so annoying! His voice in general! 😖
Sled is beyond cruel interviewing Murdaugh in his distraught condition. The man just murdered his wife and child, cut him some slack.
You're funny! 😃
Lol
He is such a monster, lies, lies and lies, and they know he is lying.
Yes
Oh, I get it now, Alex wanted to spend quality time with Paul before he slaughtered him 🤬🤬🤬
My thoughts exactly!
It was all planned for his alibi. He knew exactly what he was doing. He's guilty.
100%
That is true he would see in his mind that he no other choice but to kill them that is how these people think .
That is the first thing I thought of. I was married to a narcissist for 18 yrs and I feel lucky to be alive. I know how they think (for the most part) they are victims of their own imagination. Everything needs to revolve around them. The thrill of getting away with crimes whether it is stealing or cheating, it is all exciting to them and when it goes south it is YOUR FAULT. He blamed Paul and that boat wreck for all the attention being put on his finances. He referred to his relationship with his wife and his son as it was "as good as it could be..." Which is double speak for "not good"
I lost my father in 1996, to a car accident. It was Friday, December the 13th. He was on his way to come get me for the weekend. I remember every single thing we talked about that day. I remember every single detail of that day, it all feels like yesterday if I allow myself to sit a think about it. My birthday is December 7th. That was actually the last time I saw him. I remember he looked tired and I was taken aback because I’ve never seen him look like that. It mad me sad, because we were out shopping for me a gold ring I had wanted. I asked him what’s wrong , he said “ I’m just tired” I felt bad because he was out shopping for me. I hah just turned 17, my dad was 36. I’m 43 and I remember it all like it was yesterday. This Alex guy can’t recall anything regarding his last moments with his murdered wife and kid. Stuff that just happened. He is a devil
So sorry you lost the love of your parent at such a young age. It's funny for years I would not leave the house or let my children leave the house on any Friday that the date was 13th.
Why r u telling us this?
I'm 50 and Trump we never forget our Dads
Hey dear I am sorry for your loss
@@karmpuscookie showing how a bullshit liar makes their story up as they go while a true victim of grief knows every detail, mostly.
Never called him paw paw in this interview
Funny he never calls Paul "paw paw" like he does in the trial 🙄
Right! Also, no "Mags".
Yes! It instantly caught my attention with that nickname as I have been watching this very closely and NEVER ONCE had I heard that nickname. Someone told him to act like an f-ing human being and then it was always Paw-paw. HORRIBLE!!
Paw paw OMG it’s sooooo cringy.
Right.. that’s cause he’s big faker.. and the difference is shockingly obvious.
Don’t forget Ro Ro
He could remember specifically the route he took to his mom's, all the people he knows, works with, vacations with, at a ball game, the entire family tree of one of the names mentioned, the names and COLORS of the 3 missing guns. But couldn't remember what he & Paul talked about for 2 hours? What was said at dinner? Maggie did not want to go to Mozell & asked housekeeper to make a dinner. I know the sister regrets insisting she go. Lied about being at the kennels, when he went to and left work. Lied how long he spent at mom's. Told the dispatcher he was gone for 2 hours. I believe he planned the murder, but his alibi was completely ad-libbed. As a narcissist, he thought no one would doubt him. I could just scream. (sorry, I'm venting.)
Wonderful synopsis
I'm not going to help your venting,but when the first officer arrives he had on a white t shirt in which had no blood on it. He admitted in the first interview that he tryed to turn Paul over. No way He touched him and didn't get blood on that shirt.
At one point, in the first interview I think,he states they “rode around for a real long time” than states it was like 20,maybe 30 minutes. Thought that was off then. Now hearing this - says it was two hours.
I guess he's dumb but thought he was bright. That will get him life or the death penalty.
@@imyourhuckleberry4270 You find your own child without a head and the first thing you shout at the officers is the long story of a boat accident and that you visited your mom? Really? For a lawyer rather dumb.
Lol he referenced Paul 20 times & never once called him “Paw Paw” 🙄
You all may remember that his little minion, Cory Flemming who is SO worried about what SLED has uncovered, has lost his law license, and has been indited on 30 charges all related to his active participation of stealing the 4.3M from the Satterfield case. He has a lot of reasons to be very worried.
Alex nodes his head in the affirmative when asked if he was at the Kennels at 9:00(p) and he verbally answers “no” this guy has lied and lied, he must have done the murders. Then he says…”not if my times are right…” that is an odd statement.
The whole case is beyond odd.
he thought he timed everything to look like he was at his moms
He uses so many qualifiers (a term I learned from The Behavioral Panel on KZhead). They have done 2 analyses of AM.
If I was being accused of something I didn't do, I would be very angry, not nice and accommodating.
Especially killing my own family members
@@Eye_Rant Definitely
then he would look defensive
Exactly. I'd be begging them to please leave me alone and go find the real killers.
The lawyer friend inadvertently hurt Alec by saying he’d help to get the authorization to unlock Paul’s phone. Irony. Alec seems so transparently guilty here. His initial response to the sapling video was lighthearted then when the detective asked him if it happened on the day of the murder he suddenly clammed up because he had to think about how it could fit into his story. That reaction is very telling. Alec’s motive was greed. And probably rage and resentment towards Paul and Maggie. He found out on 6/7 that the law firm discovered his fraud and knew he would lose his job and his law license. He knew Maggie would be furious and maybe had reason to think she would divorce him over that, taking a lot of his money with her. He knew the boat case would eventually go against him for a lot of money. He knew he could lose everything including that property. He was probably resentful of Paul for the crash. If he killed Paul then the lawsuit was harder for the other lawyer to pursue. Now that the crime scene was laid out in a different video, they said Maggie was shot but not fatally from the front , then he walked around behind her and shot her a couple more times from different angles. This seems to me like he was tormenting her at the end. I think he was enraged with her to be able to do that.
It is really amusing to watch Alex try to create an alibi and there just isn't one that is gonna work 🙄 It would make it so much better for everyone if he would just tell the truth 😀 I have always heard that if you tell the truth that you don't have to remember what you said because it will always be the same answer!!He is sweating bullets fishing for some kind of an answer that will fit into his story! Seems like he was pretty much living alone at Moselle!What a sad ending!! Greed will take you where you never thought you would go 🚶♂️
Him offering to help with the phone was bread crumbs. They would have eventually got access into the phone. He was appearing to be helpful.
If you were innocent and the police told you they heard a man’s voice, wouldn’t you IMMEDIATELY want to hear the voice? Because maybe it’s the killer??? 🤷🏼♀️
Why would a stranger shot them with their own family guns!?!???! Makes NO sense!!!
Because he is not a stranger
And how would someone not familiar with the property know there were no security cameras on the grounds? And with all the weapons and ammo?
A stranger going to kill two people would most definitely bring their own gun🤦🏼♀️, its so obvious Alex killed Paul and Maggie.
That’s what gets me I don’t know how his family is still standing in his corner none of his story makes sense
@@jabellatv3240 I think they know he did it, especially since he’s been in jail for so long. Buster is an exception, he’s just like his dad.
He never even questioned that "family guns" were used. No hired gun is gonna rely on guns being available if they went to kill Paul and Maggie. Yet he never said anything to question that
He'd be better off remaining quiet!
Unless alex gave the hired men the guns
@@ritaeichler2066 why do that? If he's trying to say someone else did it using his guns. It would just tie them to Alex. Hitmen bring their own guns
@@Birdbike719 I am saying that he could of had hitmen do this...just like he gave his gun to have chris shoot him on the roadside. Many times hitmen will only use a hired 'gun ' so they are not tied to crime.
Knowing a Benelli was used is so damaging. It’s a very expensive duck hunting gun loved by attorneys and doctors. There is a level of prestige in owning these. It’s not like a Remington was used. That brand of gun is another nail in his coffin.
He has tried to introduce the employee CB into the conversation on the night of the murder and again in this interview. Setting the guy up, crafty evil man😡
Cory was very confident there... Not so confident now in his cell😮
This guy is an attorney and he has an attorney with him yet he's still talking. I'm stunned!!
Thinks he's smarter than everyone.
The more information Alex gives investigator the less they look for the killer!!!
@@monicad351 I was just about to say that. I bet he always thinks he's the smartest person in the room.
Smart people don’t talk. Dumb people talk
Stupid things guilt makes people do.... Talk too much to pretend innocence
Sitting down cross your leg tight cross your hands tight !! You spelt Guilty already!! 😆 His body language in this interview says everything!!
Yep...and he keeps saying.." Ummmm" ...and talking nice and slow like he's being careful of what he's saying.
lots of self protecting too.
A sure sign of someone lying is when they repeat your question back to you before answering
@@sam905 Yes siiiirrr....he likes to say yes sir a lot. I"m a southerner as well but he's over compensating ...he also does this when asked about different motives from others...he over compensates and says he has no clue etc. Look at 34:10...he just admits that there "could not" or "would not" have been anyone else out there
@cindygrobler765 no it's not a given. Many people repeat the question (are taught to) to clarify what is being asked.
It starts getting sticky for Alex at about 30:00. It's when he begins to hear evidence that refutes his own timeline. Beauty.
32:13 he slipped up
GUILTY. Justice is served. Thank you to the prosecution team and Jury for a job well done. 🙏🏽. Let this monster spend the rest of his days in jail. Buster must join him
Silky Silky I feel Buster has Crimes of some kind that will come to light....sure hope it's soon!!!
Buster hasn’t done anything it amazes me how the media and social media wil Ruin a man bc they look at him And him an say he’s shown no emotion he’s not this or that like everyone grieve differently I personally as a man will not cry or show emotion In front of people that I’m not comfortable around I’m not cold hearted it just the way I am but wen I’m alone or around just my family I’ll break down like a big baby but for some reason no matter wat the situation I can not cry or show my emotions in front of strangers if I’m a killer or sycopath for that then I’m Just a physcopath
@@FLo-jc7ig You pair of bullies and leave Buster alone as if he hasn’t been through enough losing his mother and brother
When the questions get specific. He turns on tears.
The voice turns into a 5 year old the sniffing, & starts crying being a victim. Narcissistic Sociopath I just get so angry . I’ve been watching the Murdaugh Murder Files from the beginning & Fitsnews . Who have been reporting on this corruption family for nearly 3 years.
And says um more
@@chadwhite7290 yes he does and can’t remember any conversation the with his kid or wife 2 hours before they died but can recall every thing his brother Randy says days ago! And he’s a lawyer for crying out loud!!
@@Georgiagirl123 And never shed a tear the night it happened after he put on his performance for the 911 call. After that call he was as 😎 as Elvis!
and sniffs that dry nose dry some more.
He was so hell-bent on clearing Paul's name. Insisting Paul wasn't driving the boat. He cared more about clearing Paul's name than he did about Paul. Both of his parents were. Maggie even tried to intimidate Conners mom! She tried to get them to say Conner was driving the boat. Paul was an A-hole he spit in his girlfriends face that night. Who does that?
Slapped her too. .
The entire family including extended family are all very strange. How the night of the accident Paul's grandfather, father and uncles were at the hospital intimidating the kids from the bloat. Listening to Maggie's sister testify about how the media villanized Paul. Making him out to be the victim. Like they live in a bubble of denial by and privilege. I'm sure Alec had a similar past and his family covered up for him in his youth He probably figured that whatever his crime, he would not be held accountable. Ever.
I don't think they deserved death, buy nobody in this family is a good person
I think it is so telling, the fact he never has expressed grief and or anger at the absolutely horrific way they were murdered. That would've had me in obvious agony. And I would be demanding to know daily what they have found out and what I could do to help.
Someone, who knows hunting rifles better than me, pointed out that only someone in deep rage would shoot humans at close range (especially a shotgun as evidenced by the horror of Paul's death) with those rifles. Anyone who's hunted with a shotgun knows what a headshot would do to the body. He literally wanted to annihilate Paul.
If he clams up and says I'm not talking anymore then he knows he will be crucified!his family was murdered!!!so if he was truly innocent he wouldn't have to worry about a lawyer!
I would have expected him to be much smarter with his planning. He made huge mistakes and maybe he panicked afterwards. But he sure made big mistakes. He sniffs after almost every lie.
And he didn't even think to pretend he was looking for the "real killers". That's what boggles my mind. The conceited pos expected everyone to automatically believe him.
And the Academy Award goes to Convict Alex Murdaugh! Man who was apparently out of touch with his wife's medical issues, his son's serious issue with his swollen feet and high blood pressure, which was; and should've been treated as; in all actuality, an emergency visit to the hospital, (and was most likely, very painful and scary for Paul, may he R.I.P.), out of touch with his dying father, his severely Alzheimer suffering mother, his surviving son, out of touch with his law partners, brothers, close friends, neighbors; damn, he was even out of touch with the dogs on his property; not to mention his awareness of the location of family guns on the the property, or even any clarity on actual threats to Paul; and repeatedly states how there was no one else there that night even for dogs to detect, or where his clothes are that he changed out of suspiciously...this man was a shell of a person and a wrecking ball to his entire family for generations to come! Lord have MERCY !😮
WHY, if your son was laying there horribly murdered, would you even think about getting his phone from his blood soaked body!!?!?! Plus Alex had NO blood on him!!!
He changed his clothes! The housekeeper said that he did not have that shirt on earlier and for some odd reason they cannot find that shirt that he had on when he committed the crime! It mysteriously vanished
He wanted to take the phone down the road like he did with Maggie's but realized it would have been messy to retrieve. That's why he brought up to the cops that he thought to get Paul's phone but changed his mind.. How weird
Notice how he says “I’m not sure “ to almost every key question the officer asks
Also, no reason to check pulse. The son would have been obviously dead.
@@dodileon yeah, most people don't do too well without a brain 😥😥😥
we all know that he was the one that wanted her to come home. So it is extra terrible to hear him acting like he didn’t even know that she was coming home. One of his coworkers said that he was a great manipulator…. It shows.
Ain't too great to me
I personally think he did not do it. So stfu
I think people watch this with the preconceived notion that he is guilty. I watch this and see a grieving husband and father. After watching the trial, I know that he is a thief… But they have not proven their case for murder.
@@sarac1118 that’s just your 1 opinion, in my opinion they have proven guilty , thank goodness it’s the jury who has everything to decide
@@melodieshimon well, of course, it’s my opinion? I am curious, could you share with me what facts has proven his guilt in your opinion? The actual proven facts of the case, the evidence. not circumstantial.
Gosh he’s so guilty. How devastating it must’ve been for Paul to watch his father shoot him to death. The absolute heartbreak and horror in Paul’s last moments are unimaginable. Same for Maggie. Utterly heartbreaking. I wonder if Buster has any suspicions of his father. So far he’s been right by his side. Wondering if Buster had anything to do with it since he’s now inherited what’s left of the Murdaugh empire and hasn’t seemed too emotional or anything during the trial. Pretty stoic for someone who lost his mom and brother and now possibly his dad to prison.
He shot them both from behind.. horrible person.
So sad 😢
@@jillblaylock4292 now we found out he was facing them, they saw him.
Buster is Alex, one in the same. He just wants to save the power and money his family has had all this time. He probably blames Paul for his own death.
I think he knows but doesn't want to know. It's too much to process yet. If you listen to the jailhouse calls with his dad, you can tell he doesn't want to antagonize the only parent he has left, BUT he's pretty fed up with him. I don't think Buster had anything to do with it.
In this entire hour+ interview, he NEVER asks 'Why are you questioning me? What have you done to find the killer of my wife and son?' If I was innocent, I'd have been screaming this!
His Attorney asks at the 4 minute mark
Honest tears would be a start. Before asking any of those questions.
100% same here. He planned the murders well but he clearly didn't make a plan for the alibi etc. He should have at least "faked it" in asking who else could have done it and they had any real leads. I would be out on my own fiding the killer myself that very night! He likely thought he could BS his way with the authorities so had no real plan on all that.
@@jcd3869 he should have stayed longer at his moms, or said he was passing cars heard cars heard noise etc etc
You should pay attention to the program.
It’s obvious within the first 5 minutes the line of questioning they feel he is a suspect.
Yes
Mr Alex is scared.....He's guarding the "precious"😖
Hes trying to decide when to cry, shake, etc
Yea he is guarding the hell outta his crotch
🤣🤣🤣🤣 You've been watching The Behavior Panel too much !
Where can I find The Behavior Panel??? 😮
@@amyburton6640 hahahahaha dead giveaway
His constant sniffing is so phony!
i have been watching this case on and off and what is really unnerving about him and his entire family...like his brother and Buster is this bizarre "smirking". I would say this man is a total narcissist who has gotten his way his entire life. He believes he will get away with this too. He has not shed ONE tear or showed any type of remorse about these horrific murders.
WOW. At 1:34:30 where they start showing him the snapchat video, he is STUNNED when they ask "was it that night?" He is literally stunned to silence before saying ".........i'm not sure......."
this is sickening, when you think about all the ppl he met when they were in a life crisis, experiencing grief and loss, and he just sidled in there to get his hands at whatever money he could
Even worse most of these people where not even strangers most of them he know outside of court
The kid who got in an accident and became a quadriplegic. 10 million won. Alex took ,4 million of the ten than stole another 330,000 on top of about 40%of the initial amount. Then turned around and stole from kids mom who was also in the accident and then after his cut stole 300,00 plus from her. He did this repeatedly.
@@shelly6290what was he doing with all that money???
it's called taking advantage of the disadvantaged.
What most lawyers and courthouse officials do oh and also the remnants of family after someone dies with a bit of money or stuff. They just try to get their hands on the assets and cash with hearts as apathetic as the Mexican cartels.
They're gonna give you some information. They are going to inform you that you're client is under arrest.
Corey Fleming acting all indignant, unbelievable. Attorneys are special people for sure.
Maggie told others that Alec called her to come visit his dad...he told detectives she was planning on going somewhere else... GUILTY AF.
Damn!! Don’t we all wish he would just confess it’s gotta be grueling to sit there day after day 2 shot one lying about being there PROSECUTION REST The End
Damn it’s obvious they are asking him as a suspect. The way that cop pushed his jaw out and adjusted his seating position, it’s obvious he wants to question the suspect. Like he said the husband and those closest are always the first suspects.
Interesting that his friend didn't press him to get out of there immediately
@@RoeDarrigo the friend knows he is a scumbag but he's on the pay roll
they will never spend any time looking for "the killer" they already found him
AM anx attorney Really trying to steer and control the interview. LOL
He was furious he would be found out by Maggie and Paul on his severe drug use and that the boating accidentwould ruin his money intake...he thought of nobody but Alex
Lawyer: Excuse me Officer! I thought we were here so you could tell us about all the evidence y'all have against my client so we can make sure you don't get anymore! Also what witnesses have you spoken to? We need to speak with them too! If they go missing, it wasn't us!
Funny...needed a laugh!
Here is a fascinating detail I had missed when first listening to this. I realize he has now been convicted, but this is still an interesting detail. He KNEW there was only one shooter, because when Owen says he believes Paul was shot first, Alex doesn't seem confused or say "wait a minute, two guns were used, you mean they weren't shot at the same time by two people"? If he had not been the shooter, how does he so readily accept, or not question, that they were shot one at a time?
How evil can this monster be. He tells or ask BOTH of them to come home! But OFCOURSE he fails to mention that! Pure evilness. I bet that was the first time in a while that him and Paul hung out like that. That was all a set up. So sad! I’m so glad this video had the question about the change of clothes! Boom! Evil evil evil! Thank GOD for that video on Paul’s phone. Wow! Pure evil!
Right. God did that! Had Paul take a video! AWSOME!
NAILED em!
But they can just argue that he changed before he ever went back out there and found them. Right? And what if he really is innocent? Who wants to send an innocent person to prison or let a guilty person walk free.. this case is one of the toughest I’ve ever watched.. to much speculation and not enuf physical evidence. I wish they had done more to show physical evidence without a reasonable doubt.
@@boobookitty1441 You must be watching something different from the rest of us... 🤔
@@littlesmith5005 whatever! Ur just agreeing with everyone bc u are falling into the sheeple hole! This case has too much speculation period .. show me some physical evidence that proves he did this.
The fact that he rode around with Paul for hrs just talking when they hadn't done that fo a long time, is almost like he wanted to get in that last father son time together knowing what he was gonna do later.
Yes!!
Yeah Iagree but the way Paul was Killed I think it was Rage because of Paul whose nickname was Little Detective and was watching his dad and his Pills so she would tell his mom plus the boat incident I think it made him so Angry and Maggie Not forgiving him from that affair he had and them living in 2 locations and I do think everything was coming to end for Alex he snapped just my theory
Yep
@@mickey62970100%
I read some where that grandpa Randolph issued alec with an Order " to get rid of paul" !!
I guess Alex took care of Paul's High Blood Pressure. What a piece of work.
Paul from the grave put his father away w that one snapchat
Anyone else who lost their wife and child in one tragic evening would remember every last detail of their last moments - what they talked about at dinner, exactly what they did when they drove around the property and talked, all of it. They’d replay those last moment for the rest of their lives. I don’t believe a word Alex says and I don’t buy his tears either.
Yes, he’s hiding their conversations which can’t be verified anyways. So, Alex can just make it up if he wants to.
This is the oddest case that I have ever encountered. This man had it all. He has nothing now, but years of being behind bars.
Even if they wouldn't remember immediately (like due to shock), every one of those things would be ingrained in their mind forever, I agree.
SPONGBOB STOLE ALEX’s tears I think he’s SPONGBOBS LONG LOST MURDOUGH LOL🤣🤣🤣
I don't see any tears!! A lot of acting 🤔
I wish both detectives would have left together to see what was said by AM in their absence
Probably nothing hes a lawyer hes not here to incriminate himself . Hes talking to the cops I'm sure he knows what not to say.. sheesh
He is so disgusting. So glad this narcissist was found guilty.
He rode around with Paul for 2 hours. I can’t imagine the convo he had, knowing he was going to kill him that night.
Incredible that he is not locked up 2 months later. Look at how comfortable he looks. He really looks confident that he will talk.
Yazz and TALK AN TALK AND TALKS!! Keep on talking MOUTH ALMIGHTY TOUNGE EVERLASTING 🤣🤣🤣🤣DUMB GO FIGURE NOOO NOT ALEX!!🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🥊somebody 🥊🥊knock him out PLEASE 🥊🥊
wtf r u ppl talkin abiut...as soon as he said "ballgame" he started cryin...nobody can cry on command like that.

Incredible but unfortunately not UNBELIEVABLE 😉
The SLED agent is a very intelligent, professional and compassionate man. When tragedy struck our family, he and his co- workers were amazing.
He seems very empathetic. Thats hard to find.
SLED is corrupt, they only have a few good apples
Tell that to the agents that illegally cut his Hemp crops down.
@@spikenomoonhuh?
@@twilit Just complaining about SLED. They screwed a over farmer really bad with corruption. Massive corruption. Anyways I guess this wasn’t the place for that comment. Sorry
I think as a lawyer he also rehearsed this part in his mind. He knew he would be questioned, he knew everything that would happen, yet he believed he was above it all and could pass this with little effort. What an evil person to plan and execute the deaths of those he lived with and shared everything with and was supposed to care for.
Thanks for covering this! You have a wonderful heart and we all see it! Prayers all around❤
Alex Murdoch’s body language posture in the chair is completely defensive in nature. 😮
The Detective should also ask WHERE are those clothes you had on in the video with the tree falling over.
They never found those clothes?
Quite telling he calls him Paul in interviews but in court it was constantly Paw Paw, trying to manipulate the jury with his pet name.
I learned in one of my psychology classes that we tend to move our hands subconsciously. When we speak, when someone is explaining and telling the truth, they tend to show the palm of their hands with their subtle movements. Alex kept his arms crossed and close to his body and legs crossed. He also clenched his hands by making a few fists occasionally. Alex never opens up his hands like the interviewer. Alex was nervous; you can see it when he is shaking his leg and nodding his head. I'm sure the interviewer/detective noticed his body language as well. When he asked those questions about how soon Pual and his wife died after being shot, it was another clue he wanted to make sure they did die immediately so they wouldn't talk. Only he knew that the first shot did not kill Paul.
I noticed his body language too when he was asking those specific questions about how quickly did they die, did they suffer, etc. It looks like in those moments when he is visibly upset, that he is genuinely feeling something. Could be guilt or remorse, but it looks genuine. We have to remember at one point he did love them, maybe still does, but their deaths were a means to an end. In that moment he saw them as expendable, especially Paul since he was obviously a wild child, bringing drama onto them with the boat crash among other things. Maggie was a witness who needed to be silenced, as well as if there was talk of a divorce, his misdeeds were going to come to light. Just my opinion
@@cstatsmann I agree 100%!
The Behavior Panel has done a masterful job of analyzing alex murdaugh's tells.
Ya right they think he's innocent!
Omg so sorry that was someone else! Another Paul.
@@crystalouellette7545 no actually they think he is guilty. Greg and Scott were interviewed and stated he is guilty.
19:52 WTH??? I thought the whole reason you told Maggie to come to that house was because you wanted her to go to your parents' house with you? 🙄
And Maggie doesn't like being out there at night and alone. But Alex gets up from his post dinner nap and jumps in the car off to his Mom's? Doesn't bother looking for her or connecting with her before he leaves? Even knowing she doesn't like it out there at night? Wouldn't most husbands ask if she wants to go for the ride? Even if she wasn't in the mood for visiting. Yes, Paul isn't a baby either, but there's a difference, AND he asked her to come out in the first place.
@@toasted_.coconut Exactly! It makes no sense. Heck, she even called/texted her sister and talked with her about Alex wanting her to go there that night.
@@toasted_.coconut he also drove them down to the kennel and left them there at night
At 33:55 he’s asked if when he said ‘here’ on the 911 tape was he calling a dog, or talking to someone. His answer is ‘….obviously there was no one else out there’. 😮
Alex Murdaugh's motive to kill both Maggie and Paul can be summed down in a few basic facts. Number one, being that Alex's credibility and prestige had total gone downhill at the time, due to being exposed of embellishing funds and major financial fraud. He was fired and completely disowned by the very law firm that his great grand father had built. Number two he being a Murdaugh and his whole identity of living up to his families name and prestige had lost all credibility. Because that he had an ego problem. Number three, Maggie was seeking to file for divorce because she had found out about all Alex's financial crimes, and his drug addiction, which of course was causing a great deal of stress. And Finally four his youngest son Paul Murdaugh, who's actions had cause the beginning of the end of the Murdaugh dynasty, due to the major boat accident back 2019. Right before Paul murder he had again gotten in trouble on the boat for drinking and Alex's at this point could no longer afford any more negative publicity. He could not control Paul's reckless behavior. So basically Paul Murdaugh was just a major liability who's actions had led to the complete down fall of the Murdaugh dynasty.
He can't remember his last conversation with his wife and son during dinner? IT's the very last conversation he ever had with them... you would think he would replay that conversation over and over.
Good point 👉
And he claimed in car interview that they sat and talked and talked. He and Paul rode and rode. He's guilty imo. He's selfish as all get out and those two were the problem.
Not if he is a psychopath which I think he is because he has no feelings at all. Alex is so flat with his emotions towards his family. He has no real tears when he cries like if I saw my family like that I be in a fetal position on the floor not being able to get up like seriously....
He was in tunnel vision mode he had something he had to do so even while riding around with his son and at dinner he most likely was there physically but mentally preparing himself for what he knew was coming
Exactly
They made dinner together?? Thought the housekeeper had cooked the meal that day??? He's said so many lies I can't keep track...
She did Salisbury steak & green beans
Hardest part about a lie is remembering what you said. The truth never changes.
Lol. The usual suspect. Nothing new
Well done, Agent David Owen and team. He is an unsung hero in this case. These interviews and the contradictory evidence made this case. And he was up against a lot of interference by the Murdaugh brothers and other cohorts.
I have watched this twice now, trying to be open-minded, but he doesn’t even answer the very first question he’s asked. Nearly every question after that gets a really vague or evasive answer. I just think he’s hiding a whole lot. Btw, my sister & I I found my mom dead of natural causes (it was completely unexpected) and I remembered every single detail of everything I did between the last time I knew she was alive until I found her. I just cannot relate to a man that has seemingly no memory of any detail of anything he did in the hours leading up to his wife & son’s murder.
It's very telling isn't it? How convenient his memory loss and vague evasive answers are. He's an attorney. He knows exactly what Not to say so he doesn't incriminate himself. At the same time he's looking like he's being compliant. Like he believes an innocent person would be. I'm thinking when these guilty people claim memory loss they think it's explained by the trauma of finding their loved ones brutally murdered. So many guilty people have used this ignorant defense. So transparent! I'm sorry for your loss.
He is 110% guilty..he tried to act concerned & he is a sociopath with his lying and manipulation. The cop don't believe him but he is being smart right now so he can get him to cooperate.
He was stealing and focused on the boating accident. The idea he can't remember what they talked about at dinner is nuts. If that was the last time I had dinner with my family, I'd recall the entire night.
Right, I’d remember every single word….everything.
In my mind, he most likely got confronted with drugs again during dinner.
@@terr777 yes I think so too
maybe because they did not have dinner together, maybe thats how why he says he does not remember
I always found it odd that AM apologizes, not only in this video but also in that 1st night (LE body cam). Why are you apologizing? You're a victim, aren't you? I've never heard a parent who loses a child or spouse, especially in such a brutal way every say, "I'm sorry." From that 1st night (police body cam), I had a bad feeling about this guy. After watching the trial, I'm so proud that the jury decided what they did because I believe Alex is guilty. Maybe that's why he apologizes. If not for him, none of this would have happened. It's unbelievable the damage 1 person can cause.
When you are faced.with such tragedy I don't think you would give a.fuk what others think. AleX Murd(au)rer is an evil.gross.vile.turd. with eyes....no heart.
Unfortunately, this crime isn't the most horrendous act I have heard of in the last 5 years. Nothing in this world surprises me anymore. We need to pray for our country like we have never prayed before. Lord have mercy on us all.
Better than useless praying, raise your sons to not love killing; to respect women and to be kind to the people around you. It is people who will make the world a better place not some superstition. Come live in the 21st century.
