What is the evidence that he had a drug problem? It’s weird that it has never come up about how he obtained this massive amount of opioids. Not one witness has even mentioned addiction. If he was using as much as he claims, there is no way that no one noticed. At least in retrospect.
And where are the drug transactions? Dealer? Physician? Etc.
And most people addicted to drugs are thin, almost painfully. All of the pictures I’ve seen of him before the murders, he looked well fed.
Exactly !! He’s lying through his teeth he don’t have a damn opioid problem… I did the math he’d have atleast a 7k$ a DAY habit if he had one…
Many of the 404, 403 "bad acts" objections Def raises pertain to details surrounding Rehab specifically: which then is odd that Defense brings it up here, which doesn't damage witness testimony ,, but does expose another possible mistruth issued by AM, their own client. In attempting non-addiction argument, Defense damages portrayals of AM'S 'honest' character in order to assert how family oriented he is. I think Def opened the door to rehab discussion. (I haven't heard about AM Gambling prob in trial , but read in comments )
He admitted having a problem with opioids. I was married to an opioid addicts for 10 yrs. Much depends on the levels they ingest and their growing tolerance to the drugs. Some people in his office testified to noticing changes in his moods, but it may not have been the levels that some addicts take. My ex could barely function, towards the end.....and it becomes very noticable at that stage. My guess is that Alex was using enough to cope, but not to the point where he couldn't walk a straight line or slur his words or have the hallmark "pinpoint pupils" that they get.
I really like Chris Wilson. I think he is a genuine man. I hope he finds peace in the middle of all this.
Amen and Amen 🙏🏼
@@elainemaldonado2932praying does nothing. If it did Maggie & Paul wouldn't be dead. His friend defended this murderer and liar is sickening. He ignored facts. Of course there are great liars this witness is hand in hand with the devil. To say Alex did everything ok is BS. Talking to someone does not equal his wife & son. I could tell...is more BS. Guy trips golfing no but with family instead hunting & etc. could be what he thought happened. Going to atty meetings etc. doesn't prove anything. The more he talks about his privileged activities the less I like him. To have this much money and activities is fine. To act like that makes them special couldn't be any more wrong. All these seemed to be so close yet no one noticed his drug problem,his ability to lie,his ability to pretend all things were perfect. Just disgusting. His daughter was lucky not to have died like Mallory Beach and the others injured. His testimony does nothing to support any relationship honesty. Anyone can pretend in front of others. Abusers do it all the time. The victims also put on a front for the world. The hatefulness & abuse occurs when no one is around. Often the controller rarely leaves his victims. Paul abused others often. He drank a lot. He was a mean drunk and didn't care about anyone but himself. Killing Mallory Beach and the others injured was preventable . When a mean drunk underage alcoholic attacks others it sure isn't what I would let my kids hang with. Buster killed his gay lover to try to hide it. He got away with it. Then Paul kills the housekeeper of 25 yrs. & got away with that. His passing on most likely prevented any other innocent ppl. dying due to him. BTW you can kill calmly when it is planned out. Him driving is no reason gives him no reason to be out of breath. This session needed more objections from DA was needed.
My question is how do many people allowed Alex murdaugh to fool them for decades. You know a lot of rumors circulating constantly about crap he did. And they just ignored it. For decades. His character surely showed when Alex was not alert to ACT SO INNOCENT. I know I recognized a long time friend eventually when she didn’t know she just told me she didn’t pay a fozr hundred dollar bill she owed. A freezer full of prime meat. And never paid a dime. She lagged said come get freezer. Otherwise she was so sweet fun loving gal with children I adored. But THAT RIGHT TGERE TOLD ME EXACTL WHO SHE WAS. NEVER FELT TGE SAME SINCE. SHE NEVER KNEW SHE TOLD N HERSELF. THIS IS WHY I DONT BELIEVE ALL OF TGEM DID NOT SEE ALEX REAL CHARACTOR. JUST DONT BELIEVE IT. THEY ALL KNEW BUT CHOSE TO IGNORE. WHY. ??? Because of the free reign of alexes toys. Hunting. Fun times Yeah. It was. Think about it. Now tgey are sick to death of this. No ne can play dumb with is Alex. You all knew what a phone he was!!!!!!
Hey. You could have said NO!!! Most of you should look at yourself deep into yourself seeming to DESIRE ALEX FRIENDSHIP SO MUCH. WHY? Each of you can answer that question of yozrself. YYOUR NEED FOR ALEXs APPROVAL?! Or are you really like alex too. Corrupt maybe in tiny ways. Birds of a feather flick together. I most people chose their friends. Like friends. Can anyone even imagine an out standing man of South Carolina like TREY GOWDY HAVING ANYTHING TO DO WITH TGE MURDAUGHS WHY BECAUSE HES NOT LIKE TGESE PEOPLE. SEES RIGGT TGROUGH TGEM
Well he isn’t that bright needing alexes approval as friendship so much. WHY is TGE big question.
Alex was never addicted to drugs they would have noticed he went to rehab to keep from going to jail right away
Alex was surrounded by some decent wholesome people. If only we were all as fortunate ❤️
They're not on trial so their dirty laundry is still in the hamper.
@@eye-color-inspired-designs-app that is a good point! Sorry to agree. Wish it weren’t, but it reminded me that most of these people as have you and I done things that are not cute.
@@eye-color-inspired-designs-app you're right about that
@@Lora-M-NY very true
That guy is dirty too, most lawyers are.
Its a shame alex had all of these genuine friends..he did not deserve any of them
Well said 👏
So many genuinely nice people in his life! And he was born to so many advantages 😔 he threw everything away.
Bad blood is hos family gene, Murders, Disappearance of people, GFather, GGFrather, bootlegging thru the low country! People disappeared, others found dead. Murder in the Low Country, Common Denominator, Alex, his genes!
Sociopathic genes run over 100 years, add Alex and Buster, then follow over a hundred years back!
I think I can speak for most people who watch this particular testimony, that we’d all be super grateful and appreciative if we had a good friend or best friend like Chris. What a standup guy who had his friends back till he couldn’t have his back. Man good dude right here!
Man you hit the bulls eye with that comment. I can’t imagine sitting in that jail cell every night thinking about everything I lost. Especially the relationships like this one.
I don’t see any of the people who are testifying saying they saw him out of it or high. He did something else with the money!
Except now it’s been revealed that Chris Wilson is suspected to have been an accomplice to Alex stealing money.
Friends like Mr.Chris Wilson are worth more than gold.I hope he does okay❤️
Way better than A.M. deserved.
Hoping Chris Wilson's friends will be a source of comfort.
Chris knew exactly what Alex was doing. Yes Alex did have the authority to tell him to write checks to him but he knew that something was not right...especially if he was his best friend. These guys are all into making money,keeping money and taking money without being detected no matter who loses.
If you only knew him in person
Mr wilson is a good man
@@Dawnie314 locadisa is commenting the same thing on EVERY comment on this video. I'm thinking AM or Mr. Wilson must have turned her down at one point in time because she sure is being a hateful know it all while spewing generalized nonsense!!
Alex is a monster in human form. NO ONE CAN TRUST HIM EVER IN ANYWAY.😢
@JudeNance: Have you looked at his big gigantic head and face with all his features squished together in a very small portion of it; as if he’s suffering from some sort of genetic abnormality? I’ve seen some ugly people and at times worry about myself, but I think he is a monster in monster form, truly gagworthy.
Alec has an amazing knac of finding people to put in his life with the biggest hearts. He can see the must trustworthy people, and puts them all around him. Grifters call them marks.
Over 70% of politicians are lawyers. Hello !
I don’t trust any of these people so far.
Like how does a company not realize millions of dollars being embezzled over 10yrs time and just happen to catch it around the same time as all this other stuff started to happen in A.M. life?
I don’t think A.M. is innocent in all of this but I don’t think everyone was clueless either.
And this guy on the stand has already said he is an attorney who primarily handles cases where he has invoke sympathy in jurors to win cases. So maybe we are seeing a really good attorney doing just that, but as a witness.
True
Alec is a classic Narcissist. Possibly a Sociopath, if not a Psychopath. These people PREY on Empaths. That is why the majority of the people around him have "big hearts". They'd NEVER suspect him.
Most predictors search out for big hearted people it happened to me
Chris Wilson, what a decent man, friend, businessman, and family man. Friends like him are hard to find. I hope this whole mess has not and will not negatively affect him, his family, or his business. God bless Chris and his family.
Ahem ... Chris Wilson supported very fishy activities he stopped short of things that could be proven to be criminal intent. He VERY likely instructed his secretary to stonewall after she unintenionally had blurted out inciminating information * (on the phone with the paralegal of AM's team). Settlement money (belonging to a client) was supposedly deposited at Forge Consulting (Wilson's company), but the paralegal and the CFO had started doubting if it was even there.
That client's money should not have been transfered to Forge Consulting in the first place, the services they usually rendered were not needed or even legal in that case. CFO asked AM several times for paperwork, never got it, but eventually she got a mail by Chris Wilson in which he confirmed that the money that belonged to this client was there, on an account. Chris Wilsson did not say WHEN that money had been deposited (we can assume the missing money was paid in in a hurry, and that AM had confided in Chris Wilson that he had "redirected" the payment to his private account. If Wilson would not help him he would be fired, lose the licence and be tried in court).
But Chris Wilson did not LIE in this case or make any claims that were not true (like: the money has been deposited months ago). so he was smart enough not to set himself up for a trial and losing his job and licence.
* AM's paralegal already had picked up the scent, another case: she asked the secretary of Wilson on several occasions if certain cheque had really already been sent (while AM insisted it had not yet arrived).
This was a cheque for shared revenue because Wilson from Forge Consulting and AM from the lawfirm had worked on it. Wilson was responsible for distributing the money coming in from the insurance company, he should have issued a cheque (to the lawfirm !) and mailed it.
Then the secretary of Chris Wilson read out loud that the cheque had been issued at a certain date and it had been issued to Richard Alexander Murdaugh (not the lawfirm). And that she knew for sure that AM had received the cheque in person. AM's team knew how sloppy he was, they first suspected he may have lost it.
Chris Wilson had won a case with a settlement, AM had also worked on it and Wilson had to distribute the money correctly and had to send the lawfirm of AM their share (a lot of that but not all would go towards AM's December bonus. But overhead, costs for the case would be deducted, and 7 % went into a pool and were redistributed evenly to all partners. Smoothing out extremes. Lawyers that had a bad year or cases that dragged on got a little more, lawyers with very good results got a little less. Helped also to smooth out income taxes a bit.)
Chris Wilson / his team had issued the cheque (revenue for the shared project) but to AM personally. - Not to the lawfirm. Which was like it was ALWAYS done.
That was unprofessional and highly unusual, contradicting normal procedures.
The secretary of Chris Wilson read that out on the phone to the paralegal that questioned again the whereabouts of the cheque (Wilsons company Forge said they had handed it over, AM insisted it had never come by mail, nor had he gotten it, and accounting had not gotten it either). So the paralagel was sent in circles so to speak, lots of phone calls to track down the damn cheque. She said the Wilson's secretary read out loud the name - then heard herself saying it, realized what she just had read - and shut up. The paralegal could not believe what she had heard and said: Excuse me, what did you say ? But she would not repeat it.
In other words, the secretary had been instructed by Chris Wilson, she knew (or suspected) that something was not right. And she no doubt went back and asked for more instructions.
But that blunder was enough, the paralegal was completely shocked, she went to the CFO who had the higher position and more leverage. CFO confronted AM, asked for paperwork, asked Chris Wilson for paperwork - and from then on Chris Wilson and secretary went silent.
They protected Alex Murdaugh to the best of their ability.
Another trick AM used
AM had instructed her and her collegue that certain cheques that were paid out were not to be issued to "Forge Consulting" (the legit company, Chris Wilson works for them and was the contact when the lawfirm needed their services).
The case I mentioned before was different: There Forge Consulting had to pay out money TO the lawfirm.
Most of the time it was the other way round: The lawfirm used Forge Consulting's services and THEY got a cheque. Or AM imitated a payment TO Forge. It is unclear if Chris Wilson knew of that - I think not, he would not have risked that. AM made up costs (services never rendered not needed) and than directed the payments to "Forge" (the fake company) to his private account.
AM instructed his team that they had to issue cheques to "Forge" (which we now know was a private account AM had set up that mimicked the legit Forge Consulting company name, so that it would fly in the lawfirm. Many times accounting issued the cheque to Forge Consulting and AM's team members had to go and demand a new cheque issued to "Forge". They had asked AM before because of the difference (that confused them) but AM told them that Forge was a subsidiary of Forge Consulting.
AM allegedly delivered those cheques in person (he claimed he would meet Chris, but in reality he cashed them in and had his account Forge Richard Alex Murdaugh credited. He had that account at a small bank and the manager was also a close buddy.
Of course the cheques for fake Forge could not be sent to real Forge Consulting. First they would have noted that they had done nothing to deserve them, they could not associate them with a case. The paralegals had not reason to cheat, they likely would have secondguessed it and would have pointed out the obvious mistake to their business partner.
Second: even If the had cashed them in - let's say they were inattentive - AM pulled it all off so that HE could get his hands on the money. And there was a high risk someone would pick up the phone and ask: What is it with the cheque - and why is our company name not correctly written ?
LMAO we are watching Injury lawyers . These are extremely slimy people . He has no problem suing for millions but when it is his own money 192000 becomes a huge amount . In the Mack truck case ,over a million went to the wife who wasn't even at the accident scene LOL . I had to laugh when he said the accident victim kicked the bucket 4 months after the verdict . Wife probably was tired of his a..
@@whdbnrm3023 all that may be true. however , what Murdaugh did was so messed up and evil that guys like wilson look like saints compared to Alex.
@@Ims51 great point . He actually had me convinced he is a decent guy . But the more he talked the more things didn't add up . That guy lies as much as Alex . He drives 90 minutes ALONE even though he just got through saying how close the families are .Why didn't wife go along ? He went to look for incriminating paper work .192000 doesn't add up .Any reasonable person would realize the guy is broke . checks being sent back and forth ? slimy people . The judge is cool .
@@whdbnrm3023 "The defense lawyer ' "Your maths better than mine!" Lol
Where did all the money go? A prescription pill addiction doesn't cost that kind of cash. There's a lot missing from this picture.
Nor was murdoch detoxed in jail. He was watching sports and gambling, not dope sick. You can't even get opioids, it's all fentnyl. No way he could function, in court as a successful lawyer, active in his community, manipulating money with high level of financial calculations etc, full of fentnyl... Which is often laced or kill shots are mixed in, plus the level of money missing would be enough drugs for half the county or state. No way. They'd need to have him detoxing and on a very high level of saboxone at the jail. Never overdosed... Nope. Not twenty years and not drugs. This money is hidden somewhere or something. What the heck are they hiding? His friend on the stand knows a ton more, he's clearly gaslighting the court and lying, very deceptive, filling in emotional crap where precise answers belong. How can the state miss this? It's so obvious!
@@speaklifegardenhomesteadpe8783 Yes plus when killer husbands " dispose" of one family they often have another one lined up. Strange we haven't heard about other women or offspring.
This is what I can’t figure out. He’s making money, has generational wealth, but still is stealing money from the firm.
Easy, debt and gambling and probably Cocaine
I think he saved money to hire a hitman to kill his wife and son , nanny & whoever else mysteriously died .
What a compelling man. More than just a witness. Heartbreak written upon his face.
CHRIS is not heartbroken about the money. Just the deaths. He must have done this before. Don't praise Chris. Remember he was his cut buddy. He knew Alex was slime. If Alex didn't pull the triggers he certainly knew who did it because he had to be in on it. The only reason why he balled so much is because he didn't think that the guns would do so much damage.
Showmanship
@@locadisa Who is the "he" that bailed so much. AM shot them himself and he KNEW what damage the weapons would to, hence it was important that the killing would happen in the kennel area where he could easily preclean. (but the worker noticed the hose had been used after he had used it last time 4.30 pm).
These were weapons used for hog hunting. he expected it to be a big mess, shoting wife and son from close distance.
@@locadisa what is a cut buddy?
I bet he never thought about him going to testify and being questioned like this with another lawyer .
If Murdauge was any kind of human without being a sociopath he would stand up and say I am guilty!! Sad to think anyone could do this to a friend much less his wife and son.
Can’t imagine ABUSING my best friend like this.
Man!!! Really 🤷🏽. You know that his friend knew Alex was stealing the money.. He was helping him.
@@JustMe-pu3xm no Mr. Wilson doesnt come across like that.
@@palomaelizabethconstidopol6598 you are right about that, he doesn’t come across like that.. But look at what he did as a lawyer..As a lawyer, he knew that the checks should have went to the firm and not directly to Alex.. he was helping him steal the money and he got caught..
@@prostyler2 Who? for god's sake!
@@JustMe-pu3xm Alex’s friend Cory Fleming was the lawyer helping Alex steal money (3.6M from Gloria Satterfield’s sons). Cory Fleming has been indicted on 18 counts of financial crimes. His law license has been suspended by the states of South Carolina and Georgia since 2021. Mr. Wilson, the man testifying, is Alex’s victim. Alex essentially stole $192,000 from Mr. Wilson, his friend. The true mark of a sociopath.
No way did he ingest 50,000 worth of Oxycotin in a week . 20 years and he's fit as a horse and no weight loss and only took a 30 day stint into rehab. Hard to believe .
Exactly! He would've tanked waaaay sooner. That's way too much money.
My point exactly. And he was huge before jail
It isn't hard to believe. It's IMPOSSIBLE to be believe. We must be intentional in our word usage. No human could withstand literally ingesting $50k/week of oxycontin excepting each pill cost about $3500 each supplying AM with an a.m. pill (pun intended) and a p.m. pill X 7 days...one week. I mean during this trial the great lawyer comes off as maybe he wouldve been a decent warehouse manager, but he couldn't be THAT stoopid to overpay to that extent...ijs. I'm not buying what he's selling. The AM himself TOLD US that he is a LIAR...Believe Him on that one truth and question everything else. Either way my basic education self understands that even a liar has nuances about himself.
Obviously, there is something way bigger than drug addiction, costing AM loads of
$$$!
HE WAS A COMPULSIVE GAMBLER
Heartbreaking to have such a betrayal from someone so close and thought so highly of
All this testimony proves that Alex did a lot of criminal things, but so far I haven’t heard anything that proves he was the killer.
@@eunicenield9631 Turns out the jury thought Alex was the killer, so there’s that. Guilty of killing his wife and son!
@@ericafors6039 Turns out the judge thanked the jurors for their service and commended them for having weighed the evidence _correctly_ and that he agreed with their decision (after the verdict was read and all the legalities had been carried out, the judge adressed the jury).
@@eunicenield9631Turns out he WAS at the kennels with Paul and Maggie the night of the murders, LIED about it for months (what else is new?) and IS on audio recording to prove it! There, feel better about his guilty ass being deemed guilty of these murders? He has no conscious!
Even the most serious drug addiction could not explain how this man blew through so much money. Even if he spent $1000 a day on pills- 300k per year. Seems like that is the type of money this man made in one case or a month. Unbelievable how much these personal injury lawyers make.
Hookers and Drugs cost money. It also costs money to keep your "secrets".
Who pays someone to live rent free in a house $1500.00 a week? That's $6000.00 a month to live in a house and the only thing the housekeeper and her husband did was live there and mow tbe big ass lawn.
Something doesn't sound right.
Insanity
His name was probably Alexia. Lol full body leather suits with only 2 holes. Wink Wink. 🤣
@@palomaelizabethconstidopol6598 Yep. He probably pushed the previous housekeeper to her death for knowing too much.
Don't forget, his boys were known for throwing lots of parties with drugs and alcohol for Underage kids. If Alex was buying for his boys, and his boys were selling... that could explain such a large amount of drugs.
It could ALSO explain what could cause him to kill them. If his wife found out...
What a disgusting, empty husk of a human this man is! It's just unbelievable how he used everyone who crossed his path.
he will get what he deserves once he is in jail !! Those bubbas, specially love crooked Atty's.
@@CarlosAlvarez-lj7gh I was just thinking of that myself! He'll be jail bait before long, and in this case, I can't feel any sympathy towards him.
ALL “ his friends “, who he HURT!!!! Feel So bad for them, I was on verge of tears, and did feel, tears starting!!!
@First Last That is true. However the jury may convict on circumstantial evidence giving him the ability to appeal. I believe that he hired people to do it but unfortunately was there at the time...and this is why he talks about his family life while sulking so much. The killer Chris Watts constantly talked to the police about his 2 little girls when he knew full well that he had intentionally murdered them,threw one in a tank and buried another.
He's a psychopath. He doesn't care. His only pain is from the loss of his "front" (reputation).

No matter how much you think of someone, people will never fail too let you down.
A true best friend forever is a rare, special gem. A genuine BFF never let's you down. Trouble is, these gems are especially rare. When we're blessed enough to find just one in the course of our lives, nothing breaks these bonds when they are mutual and love trumps all. Any person who would even think of betraying another person like AM did to numerous ppl is no " friend" and never was...
@@susanstephenson648 Yes but these people thought they were his friend, some for 20 & 30 yrs. So, you don't know if someone's a true best friend until the end when you can look back and know that was a true friend who never betrayed you.
@@susanstephenson648 that's true in some cases but with Alex his addiction took over his life
@@barbaraaiello6752 as much money as Alex was spending..... that's not a habit... he was selling or trafficking.... That's why I think there's more to this.... Alex is not the shooter but he knows who is and why.
True, it happened to me. My BFF needed money she came to me, I was fortunate to be able to help her. She never paid me back and stopped talking to me for 4 years afterwards. It was not a little, this was thousands of dollars. Very disappointing, we've been friends since the 7th grade, we are now in our early 50's.
What a great witness: stand up guy right here. Such a nice man, and what a great friend he was to this Murderer. I feel for this man and how horrible this was for he and his family.
Real stand up guy gets his so called best friend to sign a note so he can sue his estate when he commits suicide instead of helping him. With friends like that who needs enemies.
I feel like he knew more than he was letting on to.Only because of the guy friends with Paul that's police officer and his testimony
Are you serious, I hope you are being sarcastic..That man was helping Alex steal the money..
@@pauldalton5575 Exactly, He was helping him steal the money..
Are Amercians that gullible? I guess they are.
The Defense attorney literally had NOTHING he could confront this witness (Chris Wilson) with after the prosecutor DESTROYED Alex’s reputation, bringing out his opioids addiction & THEFT!
So, he gets up there & makes the witness (Wilson) go over & over & over how GREAT Alex was as a husband & dad & attorney & friend & whatever whatever! 🤮
I mean … let’s just go ahead and give Alex an AWARD & close the case!!!🤨😡🤮🤮🤮
P.S. This is the SAME a-hole defense attorney that was RUDE & HATEFUL to Shelly the caregiver to MissLibby. Trying to make her look like a lying idiot, who didn’t know the difference between a tarp & a raincoat!
Or claimed she lied about the “time” that Alex was REALLY there at Miss Libby’s house the night of the murder!
.
Trying to MAKE her say she really said 30-40 minutes, when she clearly said it was only 20 minutes! Period!
She said that “Alex TOLD her to say 30-40!
But, she refused to say that!
They treated her rudely, and we ALL know WHY!
She’s poor & black!
Works two jobs, round the clock, to live!😡
How DARE Alex sit there & STARE her down with his icy-cold eyes!
It was disgusting watching how this defense attorney …
who was so polite & nice to Alex’s “best” friend! But, rude as H… to Shelly!😏
Sickening!🤮🤮🤮🤨🤨🤨
Those times when Alex was staring a witness down, you could see the evil, mean and hate in him.
@@ericafors6039 yes! The prosecutor said when he was around am or he was walking by,am would give him hard,cold stares!! Staring daggars at him!!
Yes,and am tried to manipulate Shelle by intimidating her by bringing up her upcoming wedding, and how expensive they are!!! It's people like the defense attorneys, especially hooter and he's even a state senator they say, which is what keeps the "owning people"still is ongoing!! Good ol boy from the south,boys club!!
You are correct, the azzholes in the comments dragged for her, Mrs. Shelly doesn't know I had her back. It's really sad racism will never go away!
I thought his treatment of Shelley was disgraceful. Treated her like a second class citizen. Shameful.
I think the "opiod addiction" is just another excuse for his criminal behavior.
Did they find anyone who sold him drugs or prescribed him oxy? I haven’t heard a word about that. From what he says about the amount he was taking is seems like every dealer in the state was selling to him
Imagine having to speak up against your friend. All the ties that would be broken, plus the suspicion that would then fall upon him as well. Poor man. My best wishes with you.
Chris speaking up about his dealings with Alex had to have been difficult to do. At least he found out what Alex really was and what kind of a person Alex really was...it probably hurt a lot
What's really appalling is Murdaugh doesn't show even one speck of SHAME!!
Absolutely NO SHAME! 😤
People are whispering about him now, that maybe Alex took the fall for some stuff this guy did. But believe Chris when he said he didn’t know about this stuff, as well as the office manager at Alex Law Firm never noticed he was stealing millions some are looking at her side eyed. But maybe Alex just pulled the wool over everyone’s eyes so they felt like they didn’t have to check anything. I wonder if the two office workers that worked for Alex were hired by the new firm that was established ?
@@blazefairchild465
Why wouldn't they? They did the right thing. No need to start with conspiracy theories. There's enough of that with Alex Jones, don't yah think?
Opps...another Alex!?🤔
@@FLo-jc7ig I am not starting anything, I just stated what I saw online. Alex Jones is a whole other issue . 1/2 the nation watched his nonsense & believed it even after he was arrested. There is gossip & then there’s spreading false information for the purpose of making millions of dollars & swaying the election of a US President. 🤡
Alex’s addiction was his final scam. He is not a trashbag that stole millions, he is a wonderful man that was a victim of addiction. What a joke. Oxy’s had no role in his theft and he didn’t take 1/20th of what he claims. He doesn’t even seem to know much about them.
Betrayal is gut-wrenching. Especially when it's committed by someone you trusted and loved. It took a lot of bravery for him to get on that stand. Betrayal is an emotion that takes a long time to move past and heal. I wish Mr. Chris and his family all the best ❤
@kellidanielle: Nobody loved him. I think probably most people couldn’t stand to be around him.
@loditx7706 well he said himself that he was extremely close to Alex.
How does your best friend for 20 years not know that you’re struggling with drugs????
He was an expert at one thing….with everyone! And he will pay dearly
It’s easy. Happens all the time. You would be shocked how many people struggle with addictions. Thing is, it’s not a struggle until the addict wants to quit. Until then, it’s just a coping skill.
" Drugs" were/aŕe the least of Alexes' problems! Alex ran to Florida for inpatient "rehab."
Never mind that there are some super brainy ppl who are employed by the law firm. We've heard these ppl and others not affiliated with the AM Firm on the witness stand. In a little town where everybody there grew up together, families know each other, " prominent" or not, it's not rocket science to know when a person has serious substance abuse/ addiction problems. Let's face facts: AM had his mental faculties in tact to have pulled off the years of horrific schemes he initiated and implemented successfully until the house of cards collapsed due to many ppl unraveling the financial scheme. And, his drug supplying " dear friend" he calls himself hired to kill him? Flimsy evidence from AM when he calls 911 asking for help not sure where he was shot. A white fella, short, much younger than me." Now, that's a great description with no mentioning of shooter's vehicle. And " I'm OK, but bleeding a lot," doesn't know church name on a 2 lane road he no doubt traveled a zillion times. My hunch is lots of gambling debts, murderer for hire appeals.
And, telling 911 dispatcher his wife and kid had been shot and how he had to get back over to the kennel where they were...why not remain at the kennel to make the call? Interesting AM never mentions he's done cpr, only says "I touched them to see if there were pulses." And " gotta get off the phone to call family." Odd how dispatcher never asked if cpr had been, was being done.
I feel awful for Chris. I cannot fathom how betrayed he was feel in every way. We should all be so blessed to have a friend like Chris. He trusted his long time friend. I can understand why he said " I'm so mad." His testimony was fantastic. He did a marvelous job handling the Defense attys. He wasn't about to allow the Defense to get any nonsense by him. Loved his statement to the effect "...A 5 year old could understand" as one of his responses to the Defense.
Bless you, Chris, your family too. I'm cannot fathom the rightful emotions and toll the AM horrors have taken on you, your family.
Shame, shame on Buster for his atrocious sign language of "the bird" to you. Sadly, Buster knows you and others are spot on.
The amount of good people this man had that trusted him, supported him and loved him is amazing. Yet he stabbed all of them in the back because of he’s personal greed. He didn’t deserve those people and good honest friends are hard to come by and he was an ungrateful piece of 💩 who did not deserve that love and support. Feel so bad for the people that came across this lowlife.
A true sociopath!
Yes. One evil person can destroy dozens, hundreds, thousands even millions of lives. For that matter an evil criminal in the hands of satan can devastate humanity.
Real dirty Low life rat in jail talking like he is gone for 90 days
Help Lord
I am can't believe that his son and other family are sitting behind him supporting him is 🤢.
What else do they need to show them that he stolen money and murdered his wife and son?
Paul was recording and you hear Alex in the back and then the two were murdered.
I'm sure that he murdered the housekeeper and I'm saying he did.
Because he took the Life insurance that was for her kids.
going back and listening to testimony like this, chris’s story in particular, after hearing the entire case, is so chilling. alex called chris at 9:15. he had only just washed paul and maggie’s blood off of him and chris says he sounded normal. shocking to imagine what chris feels today.
Somehow I missed this testimony. I agree with you. Shows what a Monster "Ellic" is. I never doubted it for some reason. Well, I know the reason...I have a discerning spirit. For non believers, that sounds strange. That's OK. The jurors see his aura, used their common sense and put an end to this evil. It will be interesting to follow his life in prison. This family has awful energy. I don't have Netflix. But I am curious about their doc now. Hopefully the remaining family members will learn from this. Peace
I think the only reason he called him is to plant the idea that he was at his mom's so that Chris would tell that to the authorities..... Alibi...p.o.s
Oh my God. That *is* chilling.

This defense attorney needs to just SHUT TFU. This witness is so absolutely, credible and honest and engaging. He is just doing harm to his clients case by messing with this wonderful man.
I'm guessing you actually believe the friend had Zero clue his bff was stealing for over 20 years, including the fact that his letter helped cover AM's ass ...
They're both Lawyers they know how it 'works' / how to work it.
Karen Baker: I agree!
All he keeps talking about is the time he spent with his wife and sons, like a lot of parents do!! Is he saying that because he loves his wife and sons that he wouldn’t dare to think of killing them to cover up his evil deeds!!
@@ilb735 Exactly 💯
How sad to know that the people you're closest with have lied and stolen from you.
The defense lawyers have just proven that Alex is a great liar. 🤦🏼♀️
Defense is really sucking wind here
I truly believe there's forgiveness in this man heart Alot of Hurt in his broken 💔❣️ keep
ds...it makes me think that his elders in the family taught him well !
Say liar & lawyer. They sound very close…
God bless you Chris. I hope you get your money back. You are a good person!
I feel sorry for Chris. This has scarred him for life. So sad. Seems like a nice guy.
U are so right he is deeply hurt.
The
We wee e
I do too.
He was the shooter don't feel bad for him
Alex didn't steal all that to pop pills. He would've OD on the amount that would've bought. Or he would've been doped out and drooling all around town and he would've knocked off in his car and crashed multiple times.
True
More likely he used the money to fund his lifestyle also keeping the truth from his family specially his wife
@@ASHES234 yea. He just knows claiming addiction will make him less culpable in a theft charge and he'll get rehab and pity. What a douche bag!
I think he was a gambling addict and/or was being blackmailed.
@@jenzen9041 If he 8sna riskntaker which he was, then it's highly likely. But I think he could've gone that route and he could've got the sympathy, less culpable card taken into a count and rhe reason I thinknhe didn't take that route, was because casinos have cameras and he can't prove he was there. But he could be just ashamed of a gambling habit. I tend to think he was living up a lifestyle he couldn't afford who knows though.
@@jenzen9041 Yea, blackmailed over the first murder of the housekeeper fling down the stairs or anything really.
What a selfish, selfish man. Out of his greed, he has ruined so many lives. The damage this one person inflicted on others is immeasurable.
Ain’t that the truth! Frickin Paul!
It's too bad that family name carries so much weight in the south. He destroyed the family name.
this is the best ever example of a true ride or die friend who faced betrayal by the one friend . This man shows you the true love of a friend.
I feel badly for this man. He seems disgusted by the actions of his one time 'friend' and I don't blame him for that. After 30 years of knowing a person you would hope that you could trust them. It must feel like the death of that person or at least a death of the person you thought you knew. Mr. Wilson gives Alex the stink eye a few times, yet doesn't look like he wants to punch him out. Looks more like he wants a truthful answer. Saddest part is Mr. Wilsons' business will probably suffer via guilt by association. No one wants to need a lawyer. That being said, Mr. Wilson is the exact type of lawyer I would want to rep me and that's above my relatives who are also lawyers. I see honesty in him that is hard to find in many with Esq. after their names.
Chris should get at least 12 free shots to RAM, that would be justice. Too bad men don't have 'women's intuition', could have avoided this whole situation.
His testimony is so heartfelt. I truly feel sorry for his loss of his family friends. I hope they can one day understand why this happened and find some closure.
I'd like to start a go eff me thing directed at Alex that would send him the comments from everyone who wants him to suffer every minute of his pathetic existence.
I agree. I feel so bad for all the people AM betrayed & victimized. He took no prisoners.
Yes. Feel sorry for the family who loss their relatives....but about the money.. Since Chris was Alex's so called best friend you better believe they he knew what he was doing. Stealing funds with the hope that the firm would allow him to put that money back later because of his status. These kinds of guys only worry about making money,keeping money and taking money undetected.. even if its an extra 2.00 of your money. Yes I believe that Alex killed his wife and kid... but not with his own hands
@@locadisa 🙄
@Lea Taylor My belief is that he hired people to kill them but unfortunately he was there when it all happened. Yes,they had people who opposed them..like the family of the dead housekeeper that he owed money to and took them for a lawyers ride,the family of the dead girl that paul inadvertently killed who were waiting for damages and what about the lawyers who were fearful that they would not get their cut from the Mac Truck decision? All about money. This hit was also about money.
You can tell this man has a good decent soul. Breaks my heart for all of them.
I don't believe any of the addiction stuff
This man had a life most would love to have. He had a close family, friends, and wanted for nothing. What a shame all the damage that has been done to so many families, all because of greed and selfishness. How cold blooded and heartless could you be to have a “regular” conversation just minutes after killing your wife and child?! It’s hard to understand how someone could do this.

He had it all because of all the people he stole from
Stealing from injured people, who can no longer work for their living, is much more reprehensible than stealing from rich people (which is also wrong).
But it is so much easier to get away with theft if you avoid stealing from rich people.
He made enough money to handle his drug addiction without stealing millions.
Chris Wilson knew this was a violation of the firm's policy to disperse payment to his buddy Alex like this.
But as Alex is a partner he's covered. However he upped his game post getting a written agreement to get off the State
Who in the world was handling the books at this firm that he was able to steal over 9 million dollars and didn’t get caught until Sept ‘21?
Exactly!!
She was interviewed as well. Find it RUclips. He set up a false company with a similar company name as the one they regularly paid large sums to.
Doesn’t make sense, unless others in that firm were in on it.
He’s such a sweetheart this guy. An incredible honest lawyer, a rarity xxxxxx
I agree!
When you look at Murdaugh sitting in court throughout this section of the trial, he looks SO SCARED.
And just like that, the whole "she had no life insurance on her" bull is proven irrelevant! He now had access to her trust, or estate and that huge property could be sold as fast as possible without suspension!
He had just signed that property over to her for 5$ not long before she was murdered. Murdering her would give him the property back, precisely what he didn’t want since Mallory Beach’s family was on a mission to take everything from him. The motive still isn’t clear. The only thing I can think of is he knew he couldn’t murder Paul without Maggie knowing it was him and turning on him. Maybe he had brought up getting rid of Paul to avoid the lawsuit and she was appalled. I did hear she had visited a divorce attorney a few weeks earlier. I think it would have been impossible for him to convince Maggie that Paul died by a “hired asassin”, “revenge killer”, “random intruder” or whoever they’re claiming it was. Maybe he knew she would go to the police and turn on him if he murdered Paul and not her also.
Right.....
Plus, she had a trust he now has authority over. In all $10 million
The pain Alec has caused is just so deep and multifaceted it's hard to imagine what these people that were conned by him are going thru.
@: oneluckygirlandher: And her what?? I am agog to know what the next word is; but back to Alex and pain: If it was me I’d feel the same rage that caused him to kill Paul and Maggie and be glad about it. He is truly less than zero. I hope he is treated as Ned Beatty was in Deliverance. Maybe that’s why he’s so desperate to have money deposited in other convicts’ accounts…protection money.
The loss of long time friends is as traumatic as the death of family members at times , especially if you trust them explicitly .
Paper hankies 😮let’s talk dollar bills asshole,Chris knew what was going he was complicit start to finish in my opinion Drugs and pill poppers was a smoke screen please feel sorry for me!
Please forget long term friends they were in it to win it,like all crooks they fail to take responsibility for their crimes,bang him up with his buddy 😂
I can’t believe His only worry was the firm reputation and being complicit was dragged through hit back foot…
Please
The grieving process is similar😢
Murdaugh didn't deserve such a good friend. If he's as genuine as he seems, I'm gutted for this guy!
So if he was spending $50,000 a week on drugs for only himself, he would have severe withdrawals while in prison in the beginning. Is there any record showing that??
He supposedly went to rehab for 30 days before prison arrest
Yes you would, they would be mild compared to the first 30 days. There is no way he was spending that much and never over dosed.
You do not get special treatment in jail for withdrawals. You might get an imodium or 2 if your lucky😂😂 you are locked in a cell and get to see death ☠️ closely
AM is a psychopathic liar!!
Prob gambling addiction as well. I heard a jail convo of Alec & buster and Alec was bragging abt winning gambling
Are they going to pull in some opioid drug experts to talk about if Murdough was really addicted? I don’t know how he could possibly function after a 20 year addiction. Opioid addicts don’t last that long. I question if that was the true source of where all the money was going…
Such a lovely man, Chris Wilson. My heart goes out to him and his family.
*Always the drugs, NEVER the character!!!*
watching this defense lawyer is like watching paint dry
I couldn't imagine knowing my best friend for years but then finding out I really didn't know her, the betrayal I would feel not to mention the heartbreak
It's devastating indeed, but one has to go on with life. Much can be learned from an experience like that, but the deep trust in people would never again be the same.
They’d been friends since at least college as well. That’s many years of deceit wrapped around a horror story. I pray this man and every decent, loving, kind and genuinely good, southern , gentle , loved one and friend that AM has hurt and betrayed finds a way to get back on the path of living their own best lives. As unscathed as possible. 🙏🏼. The same for those in the Murdaugh family that weren’t part of this that are willing to hold Alex to account. Because AM must be stopped now. RIP Maggie, Paul, Mallory, Gloria, Stephen and others …..what tradgedy…..smh
@@NurseLucyAndTheLaw 🙏🏻 u said it very well
He is in trouble now sending the money to Alex in the first place covering up Alex crime with his own money this is the same thing Michael Cohen went to jail for paying for somebody else's crimes
No lawyer is worth being paid that kind of money. Teachers and healthcare providers are worth that kind of money. Ridiculous!!
No minor car crash is worth 5.5 million dollars
Personal injury attorney's do!
Absolutely, many other professions are worth more money than these so called Lawyers.
His addiction wasn’t as long as he claims. It wasn’t a 20 year addiction. He wouldn’t have made it 20 years without anyone knowing or finding out. No way. He tried to Alex tried to over exaggerate the situation.
I agree. Alex is a pathological liar, so I wouldn't believe anything he says. It's all designed for sympathy, which is now clear thats why he murdered his family. I originally thought it was probably because he didn't want his family to know he was stealing money but now I think he did it only so he could get out from under the boat case (if that was even possible) and shut down the questions into stealing (which it did) for awhile until he either got sloppy (with the canceled check) or sabotaged himself knowing Annette would find it and the jig would be up and he could blame drugs, get more sympathy & go hide in rehab.
Addictive personality.... probably had other addictions. Indeed, like gambling. Possibly another reason to be on his phone so much.
How do we KNOW he had an addiction for that length of time? John Marvin? I don’t buy it.
My heart goes out to this witness he not only lost his best friend his wife lost her best friend and his children lost their best friends to be able to speak kindly of Alec at this point after everything Alec did to him including jeopardizing his career I found him to be a great witness so honest so heartbroken and like his own family betrayed by a person he thought was his best friend
This man, bless him! I’d like to think I could be as forgiving and be able to show a friend who had done me this way as much grace as he has Alex. This situation is just heartbreaking.
So Alex called him at 9:11 and then couldn’t speak again at 9:20 because he was SUDDENLY busy with his mom? BS. Alex just wanted to call and tell his friend that he was at his mom’s to set up an alibi
Exactly
Is this man telling the truth? My dad always told me, “ tell me who you’re with, and I’ll tell you who you are”.
I think this is a perfect life statement .Thank You.

More like "birds of a feather flock together." The commenters are easily hood winked.
Sorry this guy knew trust me.
This is a great advertisement for this lawyer, hell, I’d hire him he’s so sweet and so honest. I’d hire him in a heartbeat.
Me too
I wouldn’t hire anyone from that law firm, or the new one they set up.
When this nice gentleman said we all were looking out for him ,Alex had a sincere look of sadness in his face . This guy is a genuine good man .
Sincerely hope that the highly competitive legal profession locally puts rivalries aside and constructively and consistently support Chris Wilson. He has suffered the betrayal of a lifelong friendship and business colleague as well as serious financial loss through no fault of his own. He needs to know that he is still respected and liked.
And I truly believe Chris is a fine, good man and no doubt great atty.! I adored how he never backed down and put the defense to shame.
I believe Chris will be fine as far as his reputation, his practice, but I cannot fathom the lifelong shattering effects he will never rid trusting his "best friend."
Entities AM has long been scholarly in are his total lack of integrity, conscience, and manipulative prowess. Look at the dozens of ppl we've seen as witnesses. Not a slacker in the bunch and he betrayed every single one.
If anything, I hope the ppl of SC and the 5 Counties where AM committed crimes will see Chris did everything to make things right, believing dispersements were being held in the AM Firm account.
It's a bump in the road, rural town and now the whole world knows the character of the once prominent AM Murdaugh.
A liar will steal and a thief will lie. Can't be trusted. He's done for in every way til the day he dies and must be screwed into the ground due to his crooked, evil, heinous doings. May justice prevail and he only be able to look at bars and razor wiring the rest of his miserable existence.
I cannot imagine having a true, rare friend like Chris. Chris gave AM nearly 200, 000 of personal funds based upon trust, believing AM. So what if Chris had these funds to give? He didn't have to give AM a penny. He did so in the name of trust and what he believed he had in a life long "friend."
From the financial doings alone, AM makes Bernie Maddoff the Altar Boy by comparison.
Yes,he is!
Totally agree GHE
How this man could killed his own family, is a monster with no remorse.and all because of the money. And Chris Wilson, what a descent,genuine and honest person. And it’s very rare to find a good friend like Chris Wilson. I felt heartbroken seeing him so emotional as he was so close to all the Murdaugh family. Chris you’re a good man God bless you and your family. My prayers goes to Maggie’s family that God comfort their hearts.💔💔💔💔
This man had the life people dream of... what a complete shame
Exactly 💯..I wish I had just one of them 100,000 checks smh 😢
That defense attorney only proved that Alex was in complete control of himself even under the influence of opioids. As well as showing what a tight family unit Alex and his family were. Proving how evil he must have been to kill them. Good job sir!
Chris Wilson - I seriously want to hug you. So incredible much pain in your testimony. I hope your wife/family is as loving as can possibly be. What a loss - a heartbreak, a loss of formerly trusted friend, the kids, the disbelief.
Lmaooo he's dirty dirty AF, he just speaks well.
You hug the devil then
This case is unreal. I have no other words to say.
Your enemies are closer than you think
This is really sad. My heart/prayers go to everyone affected by this tragedy. God Bless.

@@gailnystrom4694 Bianca Simpson has Bubba . The former housekeeper who testified at the trial .
Could Mr.Murdough be lying about his opoid addiction as well???
Of course he is but it makes sense in a twisted Alec Murdaugh kind of way he needs to have a reason that could somehow show some kind of reasoning behind the extent Alec went to ie; killing his Wife and Son
Nor was murdoch detoxed in jail. He was watching sports and gambling, not dope sick. You can't even get opioids, it's all fentnyl. No way he could function, in court as a successful lawyer, active in his community, manipulating money with high level of financial calculations etc, full of fentnyl... Which is often laced or kill shots are mixed in, plus the level of money missing would be enough drugs for half the county or state. No way. They'd need to have him detoxing and on a very high level of saboxone at the jail. Never overdosed... Nope. Not twenty years and not drugs. This money is hidden somewhere or something. What the heck are they hiding? His friend on the stand knows a ton more, he's clearly gaslighting the court and lying, very deceptive, filling in emotional crap where precise answers belong. How can the state miss this? It's so obvious!
I love the whole aspect of lawyers taking the stand. Riveting. His face and voice says it all. He is heartbroken and I really feel for this good man
Please! He lied and sent the letter saying the money was in his trust account the entire time. He covered for Alec and it cost him $192,000. Chris Wilson isn’t innocent. Crocodile tears!!
I'm so sorry for this man who trusted his best friend. He seems very loyal, humble and kind. Nasty that Alex did to him as well. What a heathen Alex is.
Hopefully he does not take everybody down with him coz he has brought everybody's intergrity into question.
As an Aussie I love Chris's southern accent ! How I always imagined southern accent would sound but seldom does !
I am wondering why there were no cameras in the Maurdaugh compound where the murders took place ?
It's ironic the way the defense attorney brags on and on about what a great family man Alex was and what a great colleague and professional Alex was. He killed half of his family and he stole from his firm, colleagues and clients!
I would pay close attention to whom he also labels the same way. They may be guilty of crimes as well.
This is what we have heard all my life! These people and/or enablers feel if they keep saying, "he is a great family, friend, colleague" it makes it true! Also, by saying it, we are to forget the evil they have done!! I will say it again, that is why for all of my life I was never impressed with some white person standing on some soap box trying to talk AT OTHERS about good families AS THOUGH THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES WITH GOOD FAMILIES. We would laugh then and will continue to laugh at that erroneous mind set. BTW we tell ourselves and family, morality matters more then your money, career, toys, etc. As a teenager, I had several wonderful friends from families like this Murdaugh...those kids stated, they hated their prideful, lying, hypocritical parents😯. I use to say, "no you don't" and they would say, "yes I do"!! Be careful...the very people you think agree with you may not! This witness stand during this trial is a great picture to keep in mind! Look at the kind people hurt by this psycho!!

The defense attorney gained nothing from his cross of Wilson. The attorney came off as inept.
The defense attorney might as well have asked Wilson what he thought of AM acting ability. Wasn't his acting great? That's what his cross accomplished.
@@Eyewonder3210 I guess the defense attorneys would rather look ignorant,mean,bullies,liars to protect and save Alec, rather than show integrity, good morals, ethical conduct!!

Griffin was little better,but can't figure out how a good attorney would stop to lying, bullying, being stupid for a murder, big time thief,liar crook,cold hearted!!
@@vernareed2692 Verna? How nice! I've only known one person with that name, a very dear sweet Aunt. Back to the subject, I am puzzled about the senator. How can he take on PM case, and 6 weeks of AM case, and do his job as a paid elected SC Senator? Right after the trial he's on the senate floor giving a speech saying that the people who camped out for this trial "need to get a life" I thought that was uncalled for. How is he helping people with what he was elected to do if his life is wrapped up in the Murdaughs lives?
So AM called his law partners immediately after the 911 call, but did not call his best friend of 30 years?
My first call would have been to my best friend for emotional support....
Everyone is missing the motive. The lawyer on the boat case didn’t buy Alex story that he was broke and couldn’t afford the to pay compensation to the family that lost a daughter in the boat accident. The lawyer demanded financial records and told Alex that if he was broke he would file a lawsuit against his son Paul who drove the boat and his wife Maggie who was part owner of the boat. You can not sue dead people. Alex was hiding money and pretending to be broke but knew that would not get him out of the lawsuit because the lawyer would go for his wife and son meaning he would still loose everything. So he got rid of them
Wow wow wow sooo sad evil at it's finest 😢
Yes, I had thought about this, but boy it's so cold, couldn't get my mind around it that his wife & kid were not worth more than money to him .... sick
But then I thought, wait a minute, his father was about to pass (and did 3 days later), presumably the holder of Murdaugh fortune (The patriarch)-Do we know what the father's will and testament said? Wouldn't his son inherit?
I wondered if the properties were put in Maggie's name so they wouldn't be consudere#
How about this .... ALL the good ol boy attorneys are out for themselves. The boat family attorney was NOT seeking justice for that family - he was seeking a 40% payday from whatever settlement he could get so he sued EVERYONE. The c-store, the bar, the owner of the boat. Mallory’s death was unfortunate but the truth is ALL the kids chose to get intoxicated and travel in that boat. Paul murdaugh did not force them to get in the boat. If one of the other boys was driving I can guarantee you the attorney wouldn’t be taking their family’s for “everything” he was doing it to the murdaughs because of MONEY. Not one of these attorneys care about who they hurt or whose hurt they use - it’s all about money
i feel so bad for chris wilson his heart is broken!!! what a friend we all would want to have ... Alex doesnt deserve this friend..
He had so many good people in his life.
Some people would kill to have what you had Alex.... and you killed it!
Well he did
The way they handled this crime scene is so bizarre...I guess it's the country thing b/c no one should've been in that house or on that property until it was processed and cleared...i mean it was a darn crime scene.🤦🏽♀️
Chris Wilson & Alex Tinsley appear to be extremely honest forthright men. I believe you could place your complete trust in either. They were both screwed over.
I need an astute lawyer if ever need be, not an aloof or naive lawyer. The witnesses are NOT on trial...I get that...ijs
Wow....really?
Good God! This defence lawyer is useless. Has he actually made a point. What a waste of 33% to 40%
I just don’t understand how he was blowing these large amounts of money
I can't imagine being able to answer these questions in the exact same words for a second time..
I think one of the things that makes this case compelling is that almost all these people are lawyers. Alex's friends, family, and colleagues.
Hampton is where layers can make easy money.
I would imagine it's also much harder for someone without any kind of stability to deal with something as traumatic as getting shot. I can't imagine.
There needs to be an investigation into how and where Alex was when the former nanny/housekeeper fell and never recovered. Now I doubt that was an accident involving tripping up over dogs. BUT she was a simple woman and high society doesn’t care.
Alex was the only one at the house. He probably pushed her and snapped her neck then blamed it on the dogs. Then testimony is he stole the millions of liability homeowners insurance. This was premeditated murder for profit while his good ole boys all cover for him including this thief attorney. They are highly paid actors ripping clients off.
It wasn't. At her funeral ALEX attended and approached her two children and told them to file a WRONGFUL DEATH SUIT against him which in turn he gave him an attorney which was one of his best friends and they also had their own insurance company were supposed to pay out to children which ALEX S
Which alex stole THE NUMBER 4.6 MILLION STICKS OUT TO ME BUT I COULD BE WRONG but they never received a penny and the money was dispersed HE ORCHESTRATED THE WHOLE PLAY
If you search interviews of people connected with the case, you’ll find that when Gloria fell down the steps, Maggie and Paul were there, but there was a groundskeeper (about 30 yrs old) who was there also! I heard his interview, because he actually saw Gloria walk up the steps! But he turned his head, just as she fell! But he ran to help! He helped Paul move Gloria from the steps so that she would be laying flat on the ground! Alec was not there! The groundskeeper said that Alec was not there when Gloria was put in the ambulance! He was there Maggie was there and Paul was there. Yet Alec told the police that Gloria was able to talk and told him that the dogs had tripped her! Alec lied again! Alec was not there! Investigate!
@Terri Snider yes ma'am I understand but at the housekeepers funeral HE approached her children and told to file a WRONGFUL DEATH suit against HIM. Which they did and HE plugged them into HIS COLLEAGUE which were both in one the play which they stole 4 to 6 million dollars and HER CHILDREN didn't receive the funds
That pause when about to talk about what happened to Maggie and Paul says it all. That's just a close friend, and he reacts instantly with emotion, even thinking about that portion of what he's about to say. Alex doesn't have that same trigger. Why.... because he did it.
This guy is genuinely hurt, his best friend did him like that, did you see the pain in his face when asked if he ever did get his money back?
Have we checked to see if his father died of natural causes?
I thought of this. But. He had asked the bank for another line of credit, and offered his dad as a backer. I think it hurt him more when his dad passed. Financially anyhow.
Pneumonia secondary to cancer- was discharged from hospital on hospice care
He died day Paul’s hearing in boat case June 10
Well it doesn't cost 100"s of thousands of dollars for pills
