      Please please please listen to the 2nd interview on 6/10 at 34:09 in. Alex says he used the rifle scope “THAT NIGHT”. He’s talking about how Paul likes to rig parts on guns “like the little light I used that night” he also mentions a 308 which is a sniper rifle -so it appears that Paul may have taken the scope off his dads 308 and put it on his 300 blackout -because replacement didn’t come with a scope.

    They have absolutely proven his lie about being at the kennels around 8:45 pm, to have a lie like that "ready", right then in the first moments of alleged total shock... hints to premeditation. They got the phone thrown out along his way to Almeda with the car speeding up after that point. He had approx. 14 to 18 min. after shooting them, he may have rinsed down weapons or just wrapped them in towels, he then ran back to house, take a shower, throw contaminated clothes, towels, bags, weapons in cooler and a big plastic bag and leave. Plenty of time, if you are prepared. To me the most crushing point is that when he gets to Almeda, he drives onto property, parks in the very back near trees and bushes at 9:22:39 pm - but he doesn't call his mom's house phone until 9:24:13 pm, so he is back there one minute and 34 seconds! He knows his way around back there, he surely had a hiding spot in mind. Now the caregiver said, it took her about 5 minutes to open the door for him and we don't know why. The pros. didn't ask unfortunately. Did he tell her, I'll be there in a couple of minutes? That would have given him even more time. We don't know. But we know he is on the property way back there one and a half minutes before he even calls the house! So later his car stops at kennels at 10:05:57:54 pm, he calls 911 at 10:06:14 pm. Thats UNDER 17 seconds to do all that he says he did. There's just no way.

      @susanstephenson648 Год назад +6

      No big deal. Many other factors other than body temp are used to determine time of death and narrowing it all down within a window... well proven. There were plenty of blood and brains blown out of a kid's skull, viscosity of blood, lots more.
      Most damming evidence:
      The timeline with on star and ALL the Numerous cell phones are spot on. Trust me, I've been to that part of the low Country and can tell you it's super rural, wild boars are everywhere, and SC does a crap job overall maintaining main roads let alone, let alone 2 lane roads in rural areas. Potholes, marshy land, deer everywhere running out in the road. 80 mph? Pitch black darkness...Darned straight AM just wanted to hit the road with his just fired weapons and soiled clothes, Maggie's cell phone....off to moms house to hide all the above outside in an outbuilding, at least temporarily. Oh, and while there, I'll see mom and make point with her caregiver of my time there and she'll see I'm tidy clean and no apparent evidence...

    Hadn’t Paul and Maggie found out about his pills and addictions and decided for Paul to be the look out for the pills and what he was doing with them? If so, no one stands between a person and their addictions. If his pills were gone, his cash cow law firm and attorney license was gone, looks like Maggie was gone, a narcissist like Alex would be furious. He could easily see Paul and Maggie as those to blame for his situation.

      Some family annihilators kill their families out of desperation because they are failing, in work, life, and financially. Maybe, he just thought they’d be better off dead.

      Very interesting question. They got such detailed information from the vehicle from the night of the murders and surely they tried to look at where the vehicle drove, times, etc for the days following. But perhaps he was driving other vehicles around. He was driving Maggie's Mercedes on the day he staged the roadside fiasco. This is just a bizarre case with lots of rabbit holes that all seem to contain a viper.

  • @BerylRossAwakened
    @BerylRossAwakened Год назад +15

    Thanks for this run down! My guess is that Alex couldn’t locate Paul’s phone initially so just took Maggie’s as he was on a time constraint and knew her passcode to check it for incriminating evidence. When Alex returned he found it under Paul’s body and then tried to access the phone but it locked down from face recognition. Maybe this is why Alex had to admit he touched Paul’s phone. Maybe the face recognition couldn’t recognize Paul after the fatal head injury😱🫣 even though in court they said his face was spared. Very sus, right there! Then he didn’t have a chance to dispose of the phone before the police arrived 😬 Also, Alex urged Maggie to come so they could visit his dying dad but then he went alone to his mums 🤨

He bragged that Maggie never had to work, and he borrowed $100,000 for her Mercedes.. He was still spending big time trying to live up to their expectations...so he couldn't face Maggie and Paul with the truth.. He was going to have to liquidate all his assets including Mozelle, and just lost his mind..I think he blamed her and Paul for his situation.

    Law enforcement didn't even know what to ask for in terms of clothing until they got into Paul's phone. The third interview, from September is damning evidence as to the clothing because he doesn't seem to want to admit to having changed clothes until after he is shown that video. Then, once he knows what time that video was taken he says "I guess I changed after dinner". You can see how he hesitates and refuses to answer about the clothing until they show him how they know he changed his clothes.

    #2 place the close he took off, wrapped in the Blue rain coat & hid them at his parents home. Later to come back days later to dispose of the close, but he knew the rain coat would be hard to
