re: Investigators When they KNEW Murdaugh lied (Page 112)

They were really going on about the State lying about the blood on AM's shirt and the way that shots were loaded at Moselle.

It's absolutely unethical and actually criminal.

But even worse than that, they leaked the false facts to the public to taint the jury pool.

Agreed. And AM's financial crimes bring it home for them. But the Judge allowed it.

As already discussed briefly, the list of clients that were robbed of their settlements have other lawyers in the firm on them.

There is no way the firm wasn't aware. I also think there are plenty of dirty cops. Any more dirty bankers in town?

Paul's boating accident murder causing an audit-- really pissed off a lot of people.

Like PM's paralegal said on the stand: the father of Mallory Beach was her first cousin.

They needed an out of State change of venue for the jury.

Did Lafitte the crooked bankers house sell yet?

Is it true that Moselle is under contract but went in a snag at some point because PM sold it to MM for $5?

Jury will visit Moselle tomorrow morning. Court will resume at 11am with closing arguments.

On a side note, I’m riding over to Moselle this weekend. Can’t go on the property but my wife (no pics) and I want to ride by there.

To the honest observer, he discredits the defense's alternative theory experts. Once he dismantles the alternate theories, you are left with Alex being placed on video just minutes before the shooting. Case closed in my opinion.

This is completely disregarding all other testimony, including the unnecessary financial angle.

---

I didn't catch all of Alex's testimony. Is he still claiming he turned on the TV and took a very short nap before visiting his mother?

IMO, I think he killed Paul and Maggie out of passion. He was stressed, on opiods, and wanted to visit his dad in the hospital knowing he only had days to live. He was going to go with Maggie and Paul. Yet Paul doesn't show up until 7 pm and Maggie decides to get a Pedi and shows up after 8. Then they sit down for dinner. Paul then says he has to check out his friend's dog at the kennels. Maggie joins Paul. Alec then gets a couple of guns and follows them down and kills them.

You are correct. They didn’t find either gun.

Today was the first time that that I heard about the shells too. I’ve been wondering why there has been such an effort to prove that the killer(s) used family guns and now it makes sense.

That SC newspaper that has the 11 page document within---- on cousin Eddy failing a lie detector test regarding MM & PM's deaths is paywalled.

There are some memes that cousin Eddie failed 3 lie detector tests-Total.

I think somebody else killed the boy, (daddy couldn't do it)... But I certainly think he was capable of blasting the wife....

I still stand by someone else killing them with his knowledge and/or blessing. There's something else at play here that he's not talking about.

Keep in mind, an admitted paranoid drug addict who lives high out of his mind can do just about anything. Ask family members of any hardcore drug addict if it changes their decision making or personality.

You can’t compare a drug addict thinking to a normal husband or father.

I guess I missed this in not watching the Netflix movie?

Further investigation revealed more crimes, and a state grand jury indicted Murdaugh and Smith in June 2022. Smith’s charges included four counts of money laundering, three counts of forgery, trafficking methamphetamine 10-28 grams, one count of unlawful possession of a Schedule II controlled substance, and possession of marijuana. Prosecutors alleged that Murdaugh wrote Smith approximately 437 checks between 2013 and 2021 totaling about $2.4 million for money laundering purposes. The two were also accused of an alleged conspiracy regarding the distribution and purchase of Oxycodone.

A judge revoked Smith’s bond in August 2022 and ordered him to jail after prosecutors alleged that he’d violated terms of his release agreement, including that he misrepresented his financial information and violated his house arrest travel restrictions. Smith was handcuffed in the courtroom, and is currently under protective custody at the Lexington County Jail.

True. True. Good points.

I think I was thinking of AM using his jackets when he arrives to court to cover cuffs. I think a news thing was made out of the different ways he covered his cuffs.
