Maggie had “not a lavish life, but a comfortable life.” 3 houses, over a thousand acres of property with ponds, fields, beach house, city house, grand parties, nanny for her sons, hired workers for property and animal maintenance, multiple F-150 platinums, loaded suburbans, BMWs, boats, side by sides, golf carts. Looking for another house in Hilton Head. I’d love to know what such people consider a lavish lifestyle. 6:27
Yeah I'm lol and Paul a kind soul that's a lol as well,he was different around his family,but with his GFS he spit and slapped them,he was an alcoholic troubled man
I hate how they keep calling it “the boat case” and not “the death of Mallory Beach.” It’s not about the wreck of the boat. It’s about the death of a 19 year old thanks to Paul’s mean-drunk recklessness and sense of entitlement.
I'm low income, live alone, I noticed sister-in-law commented that the family didn't have a lavish income. To me, they were blessed with many material things
I'm not pleased with Paul's murder, but I disagree with his aunt. The boat crash wasn't an accident. It was a wreckless action. Don't tell me he didn't know he wasn't supposed to drink and drive. He was wreckless under his own free will. That's not an accident
Not only was the boat accident pulse fault but even after the accident, he was still drinking and driving and speeding and being reckless so he didn’t learn a damn thing
Sadly. The elderly caregiver, a black woman testified while crying for over 2 hours and not one person offered her any tissue or a bottle of water. She sniffed and teared all over her face and no one cared. She took care of Alex's mother and was dedicated to that family. A sad reality.
Sometimes In life what ever you sow you reap. I'm not a raceist. But some white people are heart less. Because they was raised that way. But you have good and bad in all race
Of course Maggie did not deserve to be killed but from the Netflix documentary she was as ruthless as Alex in trying to protect Paul from being held accountable for killing Mallory Beach in the boat accident. Nor did she want that poor girl’s body to be found. No body; no crime. Maggie also was involved in helping Paul cover up wrecking his pick-up while drunk with his girlfriend. Maggie also promoted Paul’s underage drinking. She did not deserve to be killed but she was not a “special” caring lady. She seems to have also felt entitled to protect her family at all costs and regular people were disposable.
Right & i’m sure she portrayed herself one way to outsiders, I mean she was Alex’s wife trust she picked up on how to do so. Secondly we all know Paul had an alter ego named Timmy & showed up when he was drunk. He was literally smacking & spitting on his girlfriend while recklessly driving the boat.He wouldn’t allow anyone else to drive & smiled at Anthony’s pain when he knew they may never find Mallory it’s sad. Maggie got in Mrs. Beach car to ask what if they never find her, how insensitive to say to a Mother who’s child is missing knowing her son was responsible. Smfh
Just another phoney who loved the good life and all that money! They try to make them out to be so pure...bull crap!!!! The son was a losing piece of crap who would have been a burden to society. Before his murder, he was well on his way.
“It wasn’t a lavish life, it was a comfortable life”. What on earth? Maggie’s life appears to have been extremely lavish! Vacations, multiple houses, boats, guns, housekeepers… this family wanted for nothing.
Right? She’s also out of touch with reality. But that’s how most rich people I met through through my profession have been, especially if they never experienced being poor or even middle class. They don’t think they’re rich enough and they need to accumulate more and get a higher quality of life, and they truly believe people who aren’t as wealthy aren’t trying hard enough or they are screwups. It’s astounding how perspectives differ so much and people are often never satisfied no matter how much they have.
Referring to Mallory as “The token boat case” is classless. Shows no professionalism nor compassion for the Beach Family. I’m glad her family was awarded 15.5 mil
She said after the murders Alex wasn't concerned about finding the killers, he wasn't afraid. He was more concerned with the boat accident and getting Buster into law school. She found that odd and so do I. I think Mrs. Proctor suspects Alex is the murderer.
He wanted to deny Paul was the driver of their boat, which everyone knew he was, so that the lawsuit would go away. Zero sense of responsibility in this family. I can't believe they're trying to pin Mallory's death on one of the other kids. Despicable. Sounds like Maggie was right along with Alex denying that their precious son could ever have been responsible for the accident.
He wanted to clear Paul's name, so the blame and lawsuits would shift to someone else. Then, he could have whatever property, inheritance, and stashed money for himself. I feel for Maggie's sister, because it's clear that she partially blames herself for encouraging Maggie to go to Moselle. And it's obvious that she didn't know that Alex's dad was in the hospital, otherwise Maggie would've stayed in Edisto. Alex waited until she arrived to tell her, and I think she just made the best of it... not knowing what he really had planned.
The Murdaugh family were bad people. Am I the only one who seen the documentary about Paul and his parents. Maggie treated the parents of the dead girl horrible. Paul’s behavior was outrageous the night of the boat accident. Alec stole money from handicap boys who lost there mother to a accident in his home. These people are monsters at best.
Money, power and privilege over others. History shows that when a narcissistic gets this they will f#ck themselves in the end after hurting many others first.
@@carolineclark4078 I’m so sorry for your loss. My eldest sister passed away about 15 years ago. It still does not seem real. It was so sudden. My 75 year old sister lives close to me. I’m 72. Prayers for you Caroline. My heart goes out to you. 🙏
He took millions and millions from all the black community and buying liquer for it and partying all night long on that boat that Buster Keaton and Alex Murderdaugh
It's a family of murderers. Maggie killed the housekeeper so they could file claims from insurance, Paul killed the girl in the boat crash, Bustes killed à boy with a basé bât.
Alex wasnt worried about finding a killer or killers, as he already knew there was not one, other than himself. He hid behind his grandfather's and father's legal reputations, and power in the community, and believed there would be no consequences for his behavior. He thought he had planned the perfect murders, to get his financial liabilities to disappear. He was manipulating people and events, to make it appear that someone else had done these evil and heinous acts. My heart goes out for the sister. Her emotional pain is palpable and genuine, as she relives the events. Murdaugh's 'tears' are nothing but props for acting. IMHO, he is a despicable murdering sociopath, and he DID think about doing this for a very long time.
You know I thought he did too due to all his prior shindig's, but I'm just not sure he'd kill his son. I mean it could be they was after Paul and they had to kill her.
Not lavish? Money was never an issue for her. She owned 3 houses - multiple vehicles ( a Mercedes) and never worked a day in her life. She had house help --- leaving food on the stove and not cleaning up after herself -- but not a lavish lifestyle? WTH????
You know what irks me? This. "tell us a little about yourself? Lived in S.C., we both went to college, got married, Maggie was my only sibling". Prosecutor: You have any other brothers and sisters?
Lawyers are apparently very poor listeners. I’ve notice that many times in this trial as well as others. You would think being attentive to what others say would be a vital trait for lawyers. Yes, it is rude as well as irksome..
He seems to be Smart as H.... Love the way he makes sure everything gets put on the record. And he explains, everything,(it goes back to making sure everything is on the record).
People on medication or drugs do not have normal reactions. Same with trauma victims which he has experienced a ton of trauma. It's called an incongruent affect.
@@fgarrison2910 I ageee i not sure alex killed them their son had just pretty much got away with girl dying in boat wreck their was lot of people hated these people . Even working at their house if they are suppose to be working yard ruin sunflower prouably maggie flowers . I watch trial alex sound pretty upset when he testify.about hes wife ,son . I dont think he got fair trial on the munder trials
My uncle was shot three times in the back. When our family descended on the town, there was not a place we could go without being followed by either uncles or the police. The uncles would stand by our doors at night making sure we were all safe. The whole town was scared. The fear was so thick. To not know who took your loved ones life is indescribable. For him not to be scared..... is a big flashing neon sign imo.
Exactly. Or fear for his other son. All he spoke of was being innocent, never a peep of what an innocent person would say who's family was murdered, "it was just a little while ago, the killers can't be far, can you do something before the get farther away?" etc. etc. etc. Guilty people just don't know how unlike an innocent person they in fact sound.
@@zx208 Hahaha!! No. But he was being robbed of plants he had growing. He lived in a very small town that hadn't had a murder in 50 years. The way he had been killed had looked like an ambush and well planned out. It had unfortunately rained the morning he had been killed and it washed away the scent of whoever had done it. Later, the years to be exact we found out it wouldn't have mattered anyway because the killer had gone to great lengths to mask his scent. He walked for 2 miles through a creek and then another 2 through the woods. Anyway, between the police and my uncles during the funeral and the weeks after..... there was always some armed around us. My point in telling the story... or some of it.... was that when someone is murdered the fear is so thick that you welcome the added security. And him not wanting to make sure his other son and really himself were safe is very suspicious.
I absolutely LOVE this judge. He is so calm and collected. Very much in charge of his courtroom. It's a shame the justice system doesn't have more officials like him.
I LOVE this judge!! He is so calm and in charge of this courtroom. Most judges let the lawyers approach the bench. He is keeping the jury from being jaded and confused. Great job. He is a good, fair man. 👍
The boys, Paul and Buster, were by many accounts two very spoiled and entitled boys. As well, Buster was tossed from law school after he was caught cheating. Paul immediately blamed someone else in the boat as the driver which was not the case. The video of Paul and his behavior when the police arrived ( night of the boat crash) is truly disgusting and quite telling as to his character. Also Maggie certainly doesn't sound like a compassionate soul in the 911 call regarding their housekeeper after her fall on their property which ended in her death. You can listen for yourself at Murdaugh Murders Podcast.
These are hunters. They enjoy hunting and killing innocent animals for pleasure. How much compassion we expect these people to have? Who cry for the animals?
@@nicoles8176 Well some hunters do eat the meat. We can assume they did eat venison and pork, maybe from wild boars. Venison is tasty. If you eat meat, you are killing the animals. So, you're insulting a lot of people w/this comment.
Paul's Uncle John and Grandfather Randolph also went into hospital emerg rooms looking for the other kids to try and persuade them to say Paul wasn't driving the boat. Which is pretty damn ballsy. Who else would take the charges possible lawsuit when they weren't driving.🤦♀️🤦♂️
@@nicoles8176 EXACTLY. Paul just loved to kill any living thing. The poor wildlife. The men in that family really do seem to love killing things. What kind of brain does it take to sport kill? A Murdaugh and their friends kind of brain.
@@D3LAWAR302what? Are you kidding me? Denial? Shock! Know someone for 25 plus years you just can’t wrap your mind around believing they could do such horrible things. It’s her brains way of comforting her through the grief.
Her testimony is so revealing. Alex was all up in these murders. I feel sorry for .Maggie’s sister. On the other hand I think it’s hilarious that she thinks Maggie didn’t lead a lavish life. Never worked a day in her life. Bought and sold properties on a whim. Rode a golf cart around her 1700 acre property. 98% of us would say that was lavish.
She was shopping for a new house after her son was drunk and killed a 19 year old girl. How could she do that. I think this whole family are awful people. Hunting and killing animals and selfish self centered. She told her housekeeper that she had to leave her doors open for the Mexicans. I am not impressed by any of them.
And her comments that Paul was being treated unfairly…… he used Buster’s ID card, bought alcohol, recklessly drove the boat and was being charged with criminal negligent homicide (may have the name of the charge incorrect there) and he was going to trial a couple of days later on….. It doesn’t mean she doesn’t grieve or miss her sister, however realistic description of the situation would have been more respectful for everyone else affected….
Marian and her husband are obviously wealthy. They built a beautiful house and guest house on 27+ acres in 2019. Sold it in Oct 2021 for almost $6million. She's either a very gifted interior decorator or she hired one. You could tell it was a home that welcomed large gatherings of family friends.
Worse than an accident. Borrows his older brother's ID to buy beer. Then gets drunk and then speeds the boat into a bridge at night with passengers. While the passengers are telling him to slow down. Accident?? And it happened at night. Stupid crazy.
Always considered it a crash & no accident with all the planning behind it: illegal ID, illegal alcohol purchase, providing alcohol to minors involved in a fatality, etc.
I think Maggie’s mother’s reaction to hearing her daughter was shot to death is helpful for all to remember what this trial is about and what was lost.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I hope 🤞 this year brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎 ❤❤I’m originally from Canada 🇨🇦 grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
I blame that boat accident on bad parenting. They were all teenagers, yet they were out in the middle of the night, drinking. Paul didn‘t force anyone to get on that boat. They did it on their own. They should have called someone to pick them up.
@@Huckfintress exactly, and what is really sad is that once the tragedy happened everyone turned against them and portrayed them as devils in that Netflix documentary. They claimed to be their friends and wanted so hard to be their Friends and enjoyed every privilege that friendship brought with it … just sad
There was evil surrounding this family for quite some time. You have the Nanny who supposedly died from a fall. The friend the boys went to school with found dead on the road. The girl killed in the boat crash. The son and wife who were brutally murdered. On and on it goes. Plus the stealing of insurance money from the injured cop and the stealing from the woman’s sons who worked for Alec. This story is incredible that this much death and crimes surrounded this family. Pure evil. - posted by Bob Murray
Yeah…This bad stuff happens around Alex - and his sons. And, how about his drug abuse AND the staged attempted suicide? This case is classic family annihilation. Alex is a Narcissist and his need for sympathy far outweighs his inability to feel love or empathy or grief. We’ve seen it once, we’ve seen it a hundred times! And, they ALWAYS think they’re smarter than the Detectives, but they inevitably will slip up somewhere! I bet AM wishes he took Paul’s cellphone and destroyed it…PS I thought that Paul being the driver of HIS boat was never disputed? Wasn’t it common knowledge? The sister saying Maggie was convinced that Paul WASN’T the driver, sounds like she, Mags, was in denial.
If Paul was driving that boat he was drunk and killed Mallory. And just as if he were driving a car he should have been prosecuted for homicide. The terrible murder of himself and his mother ended that charge.
He was charged criminally and going to trial 3 days later. He could have gotten 20 years in prison. He would have ruined the family name. Irony is that Alex is the one ruining it!!!"
My heart breaks for the girl who was killed in the boating accident. They didn’t think there would be an indictment. This family is getting way more consideration in trial than they will ever see. It was interesting when Maggie’s sister was going down the list of people Maggie loved: she left Alex off this list. 👀
@@peggypasson8794 There were hundreds who turned up for the funeral. My heart really goes out to that family. Even the sister on the stand did not seem to be very moved by it, but instead gave much sympathy and good things to say about Paul, who was obviously out of control.
@@peggypasson8794 Even the teenagers involved in the boating accident knew that and made comments about it. Good thing the video cam pictured AM’s badge hanging out of his pocket. And, he admitted to flashing it to find favors.
She and I were raised in the same type of home. "Ladies were to appear in the newspaper three times: birth, wedding, death"...or perhaps doing a charity fundraiser dinner-dance at the Club..so this is very hard for many of the witnesses....the housekeeper did NOT want to talk about Maggie's underwear. I felt bad for the caretaker too.
I doubt the veracity of his supposed addiction. $5M annually on oxycontin? That's about $15,000 daily. Sure, alex - whatever you say bud! Nothing more than a sympathy play, as most people have dealt with or been affected in some way by addiction. Like a lowest common denominator. He's that bad...
@House of Solomon there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY HE SPENT THAT MUCH MONEY ON PAIN PILLS. I know this, been there. Your body nods off. That is a self-defense mechanism, so when u do too much, you nod off. Period. There is NO WAY.

My heart breaks for this woman. You can tell how gentle and kind she is - and just how much she loves her family. I send her all the love in the world and that her family gets the justice they deserve.
Detail from the testimony of the paralegal that worked for Alex and was the first to notice (and report) red flags regarding how he handled settlement money. He had _bought a boat with a loan._ Interestingly _some of the stolen money_ that je he redirected to a bank account in the small bank was also _used to pay down that boat loan._ Might have been the boat that Paul steered while drunk and then he killed the girl in 2018. Apart from the drug habit that was the most financially devastating thing for AM. And devastating for the family because of the events it helped to trigger. When her parents hired a lawyer for a civil lawsuit he then tried to write over property to his wife so the parents of the girl could only sue him for less - and Maggie in May or June 2021 refused to hand over the property that legally belonged only to her - he could not use those assets (that he had tried to move out of reach for liability charges) to quickly come up with millions. In May he knew it was only a matter of time before he would be busted, but if he could have come up with several millions he could have repaid the money, fulfilled all obligations toward clients and the lawfirm (he also withheld revenue from them) and maybe the lawfirm would have let him leave quiety w/o exposing him. No scandal, he would have to step down of course - and the clients would have gotten a surprise payment, but I am sure he could have sold them the lucky turn of events. He chose the clients he stole from well, no one had protested that they did not get enough or the believed the story that the lawsuit was not successful. So there was a chance no one would question or protest or suspect foul play when they unexpectedly would get 70k or 200k. Stolen money paid for the boat that cost his family (and the girl) so dearly. On June 7th he murdered wife and son. He (as the owner of the boat, and it either had no insurance or the insurance would not pay because their son was drunk) had a court date for June 10th, on which the judge would rule whether he had to disclose all his assets. This had to do with the private lawsuit of the parents of the dead girl, and I think they sued for 30 million USD. I think they really thought he was filthy rich. Alex had been busy since 2018 or 2019 to try and get as much as possible in Maggies name / written over to her - but that likely motivated him to kill her when the walls closed in on him in the lawfirm (January - May 2021). Shortly before the murder his wife had refused to allow him to sell property - that sale would have provide a few millions real quick. I think he realized that he could not continue to steal from the company, and that the crimes he had comitted so far would be detected soon. The spouses had a discussion / fight not long before the murder over the beachfront property (4 million USD), I very much doubt he had told her WHY he so desperately needed money. But she refused to sell it. She must of course have known about his drug use (for 20 years) - one more reason not to let him have more money - and she likely could not fathom how much he stole. Only a few days before her death she had confronted him because a charity cheque that she had written had bounced. In August 2021 (so 3 months after the murders) he had 4 million debt with the small bank and his chequing account was overdrawn with almost 400,000 USD. Maybe she should have gotten involved in the family's finances or should have added up ALL their spending and compared it to what came in (the legal money - she had no way of knowing that he stole and how much). Only - if she had bothered then she would have been surprised where the money for the boat or other loans of Alex came from (from the account that he had opened for stolen money). AM had opened a private account the "fake Forge account" (that mimicked the account of a legit company & business partner of the lawfirm = Forge Consulting). AM would wait until the paralegal that normally handled the larger settlement cases and the "billing" was not in the house and then order her collegue to finalize the cases and to split the money that had come in. What the client would get, the fee for the lawfirm, all the costs they had paid in advance, and often liens had to be considered (hospital bills, Medicare that had to be reimbursed if a client got a settlement). It was necessary to know such files well to not overlook anything, the ladies were protective of "their" cases - and from time to time a confused collegue would call her when she was not in the company, because she had been orderd by Alex to finish a file in a hurry, and she found the instructions of Alex unusual, could not understand some of the position (no wonder it was fraudulent) - Alex often ordered that shortly before 5 pm and preferably on a Friday when all the other staff and the other partners and financial department had left the company. AM also instruced his staff to write the cheques not to Forge Consulting (a legit company that they used from time to time when they set up trust funds for settlements in form of recurring payments instead of one lump sum) but to "Forge" (in the lawfirm they called that "fake Forge" during their audit because it really was a private account that AM controlled. The name was chosen to dupe accounting deparment when they wrote the cheques. And those cheques issued to fake "Forge" were not sent by mail (to the legit company), he always said he would meet their contact at that company for golf or lunch and would hand it over in person. Drove his staff crazy, AM had a reputation of being sloppy and disorganized, they feared he would lose the cheques. Larger amounts often more than 100,000 USD. Replacing such cheques is possible but it is a hassle.
Wow, a really good judge. While I haven’t followed the entire trial, this judge seems fantastic to me. Intelligent, engaged, practical, and clearly in control of his courtroom without being a tyrant. Bravo.
Feel so sorry for her sister, she will forever feel responsible for telling Maggie to go to home to support AM that night. The betrayal and heartbreak on her face is palpable
I am sure you are right. However, Marion, please know you had no way of knowing, as not any of us would. Bless you darlin🙏🙏🙏 No body could have known, please do not ever forget that🤗🤗
@@LauraBlair-lv6jy Bless her. Exactly. She didn't do anything wrong at all. The sister mentioned that Alec said whoever did the murders has planned it for a while...I believe he had planned it for a while and was referring to himself in 3rd person as many sociopaths as well as psychopaths do. I believe he had a perfect opportunity and took it. SMH! She was only being a good sister encouraging Maggie to do the right thing by her husband to support him. That's completely admirable there's nothing wrong with that. She had no way of knowing what was going to take place.
She should not feel responsible for supporting her sister. IF she does feel responsible, some good counseling should help her realise it was not her fault. If it did not eventuate that night it would have happened on another night.
No lady, it was not just a boat accident. Paul drunk as a skunk, would not allow the others to drive.. he drove them in a way that would kill them. I know she sounds sweet, but she is despicable .'' It was hard for Paul ' after the boat accident...she says. Well, it was worse for Mallory's parents , who Paul manslaughtered. Where is her compassion for them. ?
Not just poor Mallory’s family, but also for the other friend that the Murdaugh’s and couple police tried to pin it on. This family’s entitlement is disturbing.
just recently watch the documentary on the horrific and tragic accident where young Mallory lost her life., there is so much to learn from it.FACTS! and everyone here should watch it to get a perspective from all the victims.
The people of that town were mean and in compassionate towards Paul and his family because he was crass, unconcerned and didn’t take responsibility for that boat crash. A young girl lost her life because Paul was drunk. He put the lives of his friends at risk and didn’t give a damn one way or the other. Once Paul called his Grandfather and Dad after the accident, it was an event of deflecting from there on out. Put the blame on someone else except Paul. That boy never took accountability for that boating accident. The entire town saw it all and knew what trash the whole Murdaugh family was/is.
And, her poor family never received the consideration in trial that is shown here. The mother stated that she was surprised that there was an indictment.
Thank you...I just viewed the Netflix doc on The Murdaugh Murders(eerie how that rhymes) ...very revealing as to how manipulative this family was regarding the boat crash and other incidents!
I am sorry that happened, both of my parents passed unexpectedly and I’ve lived in fear since 2000 that something will happen to my sister. She hasn’t lived the most honorable life. I love her no matter what, and I just have this bad feeling.
Maggie was tired of bowing down to Alex's mother and father and Alex probably took offense. He wanted to put an end to his spendy wife and the $10 million dollar son's boat ordeal. No Murdaugh will go to jail on his watch. He thought sympathy for the family would prevail afterwards. If Paul's dog tail video did not exist, Murdaugh would definitely get away with it. The dog tail video, phone and step cell gps, and the car infomation proves he was not asleep and instead up and moving around.
I agree 💯 and let’s don’t forget the honest and salt of the earth MR Davis the one that cleaned the kennels testimony today. He said the hose was not put back up like he always meticulously put it up. It’s bc AM used it I think. I believe firmly that AM hosed off at the kennels, after lying and saying he wasn’t down there, had a place already picked out for the guns, clothes etc before he went to see his mom. I think he prob had a hole dug to put that stuff in. And her sister’s testimony today was very good as well.
I lost a younger sister in 2019. She passed in her sleep. She wasn’t even 30. I completely understand how Marian feels when she said, “it hasn’t really sunk in” even after all these years. It’s heartbreaking what she has had to go through. May she find peace.
I agree with that. My sister was 38 and she passed of an aneurysm it still hasn't sunk in.....I hope Marian as well as urself find some peace....they say time heals but it doesn't heal , more like we learn to live with it. God bless ♡♡
Everyone deals with death differently but to see it and for it to also be a brutal crime must be horrifying. I’m imagining it’s being put in a mental box to control the pain. There really is no getting over that, only dealing with it id think. The thing that gives me comfort is my belief in God and to know that I’ll see my loved one again. It’s not forever.
I feel one of the most obvious and important issues in this case, and one that really no one talks about, is the fact that Alex really wanted Maggie to go with him to visit his parents that night and she never went. I think that this along with the kennel video proves guilt. Maggie didn’t want to go according to her sister but her sister encouraged her to go. It’s so obvious to me that Alex lured her over to Moselle to kill her. The only reason she was there was to go with Alex and somehow Alex just didn’t take her with him..??!! Probably because he killed her and his Son…
Defense counsel tried to cover this (sloooooooowly) w/2 justifiers, asking her: (1) If it was unusual for “Elick” to ask Maggie to join him at Moselle (bc he didn’t like being home alone), therefore, that request wasn’t uncommon; and More importantly, (2) that, since her FIL *wasn’* in the hospital (he was home, unbeknownst to Maggie + her sister), there was no reason for her to go w/Alex, hence, he left her at the kennel w/ _PawPaw._ (bc she just loved those dawgs so much). AS IF that’a a good enough reason. The only thing I wonder is what did Maggie think/do when she realized Alex was going to his parents’ house without her. Didn’t she hv an objection, if that’s theE reason she went to Moselle. I’d think so.
He stares into space during some of the testimony ...is he seeing them die in front of him again and again...we can only hope that is his sentence until his final day.
Jenny you are very blessed, I have a sister but we are 10 years apart in age and our lives are very different. I wish I had a sister or a best friend. Enjoy your family! Hold them close. Tell them you love them. This life is too short. But praise God we will be together with our loved ones in heaven. Maybe them my sister and I will walk the streets of gold together. Maybe we will pass you and your precious family along the way. We have so much to look forward to. Alex & Evil will not win. Mary will be there with her sister too. One day. They can laugh and spend days together. Praise Jesus! LA
She's a good witness by speaking eloquently, precisely and with easy-to-understand details. She seems like the type of person we all want in our family.
The most disturbing image to me,is when she is embracing Buster and the deadly look in the 3 Murdaughs face - It´s pictured and it´s very disturbing. I hope this woman is safe.
What really stands out is that you don't often know what your loved ones think or what they will do. All of these people were put in sorrow because of money.
She is a good witness for the prosecution. I feel terrible for this lady. It's no surprise his priority was clearing Paul's name instead of finding the killer of Maggie and Paul
Why would Alex not automatically assume someone was after him as well? Is it perhaps because he was confident there wasn't a threat out there? Why wasn't catching the killer his main and only priority? Perhaps bc that trail would lead investigators right to his doorstep? The sister in law KNOWS, she's knows and its breaking her heart. My heart goes out to her.
Alec left Moselle that night after Buster and his friends packed up his things. I think Alec did it. Or hired someone to do it more likely to me. But just for keeping facts straight, Alec did go and stay in different places after the murders.
Devils advocate: He had lost everything at that point including his will to live. He didn't care about his life at that point. He felt he was honoring his son, in memorial by clearing his name. I can see that.....
@@atonement7232 The wife had no life insurance and he noted that on many documents. She had 57.00 in her bank account. He really didn't have a motive....
Give me a break....Paul was driving the boat. That family did nothing but protect Paul and get him out of trouble. Alex tried to get Conner to admit he was driving to save his son.
What a nice lady and how awful for her to be in the position of having to testify about her murdered sister and nephew. Honestly she seems so kind and gentle and truthful.
I hope Marian can get over the guilt she feels for encouraging Maggie to go home to Alex the night he murdered her and Paul. What a burden to carry. Alex has no clue the suffering he has put upon so many people. It's disgusting and horrifying that a person could be so self serving to go to the extremes that he did.. the stealing, the lies...to his friends, his clients to his own flesh and blood! Horrible. P.S. I think AM's attorneys did a terrible job, bullying witnesses, especially Senator Harpootlian. Hard to believe this guy is in the US Senate. Vote him out.
Trust me, just because the affair had happened 15 years ago, doesn't mean it's not still somewhat in the forefront of her mind. That kind of betrayal never truly goes away even if you've managed to "work through it".
Alex's name and number is alleged to have been in the personal cell phone of a high end Madame of the area that serviced the who's-who. RUclips has a former sex trafficked young woman interview that claims the catalyst for her escape from the Madame was the violent rape with choking she recover from Alex. The parties were alcohol and drug fueled and the former victims claims this happened 7-8 years ago when she was age 20.
I can't imagine losing my only sibling and nephew to such a horrible crime. This defense attorney was a lot more gentle with his questions of Miss Marian (understandably so) than he was with Miss Sherry, Alex's mom's care giver. Who stood strong even after Alex tried to bribe her by mentioning that her wedding could “ be expensive,” He bordered on badgering her with his loud and forceful questioning. Miss Sherry should have been shown the same kindness and respect as Miss Marian as she is an honest and caring woman herself who was also grief stricken. Also, if they had such a "good marriage" as the defense is trying to make the court believe, why was Miss Maggie living in the beach house and not with Alex? The beach house that Alex asked her to leave to come up to his house supposedly because, his ailing father was getting worse. He never does go to see his father and Maggie was murdered soon after.
My heart breaks for this beautiful woman having to go thru all of this yet she is doing an amazing job . I pray she and the survivors all see justice complete and find a small thread of hope and peace .
@catherinebranson3257 This family needs to come to Christ in total repentance. WOW, for the father to have his highest priority to "clear his dead son's name," - something is terribly wrong with this picture. It sounds like terrible pride and hiding truth to me. Brenna
"it wasn't a lavish life, it was a comfortable life" They had a freaking Plantation Hunting Lodge as one of their multiple properties. What planet does Marian Proctor live on?
The most unorganized lawyers I've ever seen or heard. They cannot follow a sequential timeline or remember from one moment to the next. The defence questioning of her sister is useless repetition of what has already been said by direct questioning. Finally, they have come to realize they have a court reporter. Oh my gosh.
I don't mind the Defense going over the witness's testimony, but this guy takes up waaaay too much time saying "um...uh...uh, uh, uh...um" ad nauseam! I use the right arrow to skip ahead in 5 second increments when he's cross-examining, as I don't have the patience to listen to his literally meaningless, pointless noise. It's almost like he's senile, at some points.
Because they don't have a defense. Alex is guilty as hell, it's hard to defend someone when all the evidence is pointed at your client. And I am sure Alex asked his attorneys to be gentle with her.
The prosecuting lawyer adjusts his chair so that he can see her testimony while being questioned by the defence - so impressed by the prosecution’s dedication and professionalism in this case.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I hope 🤞 this year brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎 I’m originally from Canada 🇨🇦 grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
Sad she felt she needed to say that Paul was a victim of the media. The hospital staff was appalled by his behavior the night of the boat crash. Common knowledge the family was entitled. So sad
'Alex didn't seem afraid.' It is obvious that Marian Proctor believes that Alex more likely than not murdered her sister and nephew. It's subtle, but if you pay close enough attention, you can see the implication of what she said. After Maggie and Paul were murdered, she testified that she was terrified for the safety of Alex and Buster. Then, in September, she no longer was because she found out that Alex had been lying to her and everyone else. Obviously, this wasn't a reference to Alex's alleged opioid addiction because Marian had learned about that long before the murders from her sister. along with the name Maggie had given Paul: 'Little Detective.' As she said, this was in relation to finding Alex's stashes of prescription medication. It also shouldn't refer to learning about the fact that Alex had been stealing money and had been fired from his firm. If you listen to the defence and some trial commentators, Alex's theft could have created any number of enemies...even though no one really knew about them until the day of the murders and that was just two or three people from the firm who had agreed not to move on anything then because of the impending death of Buster Murdaugh the Elder. IF Alex's theft or drug addiction had put his or his son's life in danger over the summer, why would that change once the 'attempted suicide for hire' or ploy for sympathy and delay exploded into consciousness? In other words, if someone else had killed Maggie and Paul, then Marian would still be concerned for the safety of Alex and Buster the Younger regardless of what Alex had done relative to theft of funds or his addiction. Why did finding out that he lied about being shot in the head on the side of the road by an unknown person change Marian's mind concerning Alex and Buster the Younger's safety? Could it be that she realised then that Alex might just be capable of anything, including without limitation murdering his wife and son? All that I am saying is that if he didn't murder his wife and son, the fear for his safety and that of her nephew should have remained regardless of what Alex had done. But, it didn't. It changed on that day. She was no longer afraid for them. Why? Perhaps, because she knew that there was no unknown bogeyman shooting members of her family. Rather, the shots were coming from inside of the house, so to speak. Today has probably been the best so far for the prosecution.
She started to put it all together, it seemed. She said Alex said they didn't suffer. That could be explained by him trying to comfort her. The fact that he said, "The person had been wanting to do it a long time." Odd statement for sure. With conspiracy to commit fraud, 80 ish financial crimes, and now murder, he built an intricate house of cards that would all fall by just 1 card at the bottom falling. It finally fell. I was looking up Mr Randolph to find the cause of death. 1st, no disrespect intended, but his $$ is in probate due to there being a possibility that he received $600k from Satterfield. That's flipping horrible!!
I think the sister makes a very telling observation when she states she found it odd ( upsetting ) that Alex's focus was on clearing Paul's name in the boat accident and not on finding out who killed them, in fact he never talked about it ( finding the killer or killers). The boat accident had turned out to be what would have been the financial downfall of this family or I should say Alex's direct family. He wanted to clear Paul's name so he couldn't be sued any longer. If anyone wants a lot of information on this family, a lot of pertinent information, go to Murdaugh Murders podcast produced by a investigative reporter by the name of Mandy Matley. Harpootlian despises her and her team.
I think one of the motives Alec killed Maggie and Paul because he probably thought that Mallory’s family would drop the lawsuit against him out of sympathy.
What strikes me as odd is how many tragedies happened around this family: A house fire The death of Mrs Satterfield The death of Stephen Smith The death of Mallory Beach The death of Maggie Murdaugh The death of Paul Murdaugh
@@deborahbergman3566 He managed not to. Somehow. I think if he had help it would probably would have been found out by now. I think - but he was there if he didn’t actually shoot them he was there and it was idea.
@@dulipedu you mean like how the Murdaugh's honored Mallory Beach..? I.e. attempting to cover up their sons' drunken negligence. He was a 22 yr. old drunk driver and his arrogance led to a young ladies untimely demise. You ppl are so out of touch with reality and logic it's dangerous, pathetic and disgusting!
The sister-in-law doesn’t say anything in her testimony that is beyond a reasonable doubt in a way that could directly lead to Alex’s conviction, but I find her testimony very powerful. She and her parents were so close to Alex, but she certainly has some suspicions now. It must be awful thinking that he might have been the one responsible for her sister and nephew’s deaths.
@The Nation State the continued point of the timing and the fact Alec was identified to the testimony offered by those friends of Paul, for example, is not lost on me,but nor is the evidence we are yet to hear. I hope that in the huge undertaking that the jurors have, is not lost on them,and they do not find premature answers in the presumptions made so early in the case. It may be revealed that the voice , may indeed be Alex, however any sensible person surely cannot differentiate between a voice that was there in person, at a time Alex has testified to numerous times, that he was said to be elsewhere, and the voice being heard and identified as ALEX but from a message or videoplayback that could give reasons to the point of the voice being heard but not in the presence or company of mr Alex murdaugh if he sticks by the times he has attested to , in that point, it would be reasonable to hear and THink Alex was indeed at the kennels , but the evidence may yet show that could not be the case. Now of course, this is merely a suggestion, Of what is yet to be , and may be heard,but it is not unthinkable to have doubt cast on such detail in the manner above.
Isn't it incredible how Alec can flip the switch from uncontrolled crying ...to calm and collected ...and back again in the instant of a blink of an eye ...especially noticeable in the car interview a few days after the murders!
@williamphillips2239 I completely agree !! I've said that since the video of him in the sled car , fake crying and then all of a sudden he was calm asking for water and gum and then at one point carrying on conversation with another detective about where he was from and I think it was Alex in the sled video inside the gun room who was sitting on the couch shirtless and kicked back all relaxed. He is guilty idc what anyone else believes or has to say. He did it , he did it , he did it . When they were explaining Maggie's autopsy, he at first looked like he was trying to cry, but then it looked as if he got mad and I was thinking I bet he is probably saying that B***H SHE IS GONE AND IM STILL IN JAIL BLAMING HER IN A SENSE . I can't stand to see his face when he starts flapping his lips and rocking back and forth. Lol
5:42 to be fair, he was responsible for the (absolutely unnecessary) death of a young lady who had a whole life ahead of her. I understand he was her nephew & she loved him, but for her to say that, completely disregards Mallory Beach, & her family/ loved ones.
I agree. It annoyed me that she called it just “an accident.” the other kids were begging Paul to stop driving and to let someone else take the wheel. He was a mean drunk, which means he was a mean person deep down inside.
listen to the tapes and videos of the kids at the bar, on the boat, at the hospital. the truth is in the open. I can't excuse all those who keep praising this entire family and their flaws.
Her composure giving testimony about her dead sister is remarkable. When you think of yourself in her position you have to wonder if you’d get through it. Maggie’s narcissistic husband is the killer, to be sure. He has faked his way through his testimony, throwing speculation at the wall to see what sticks. He has admitted the dogs were not barking at an intruder in the property and the time line clearly puts him at the scene. I can’t imagine a creep capable of killing his wife and son to distract from his being investigated for his financial crimes. What is it with rich people who think they can get away with anything? He deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison.
Let me answer your last question. They usually do get away with everything. Take a look at Trump. Do you think if you committed the crimes Trump has you'd be hanging out at his resort?
@@singlelifeok Trump has so far gotten away with everything but I’m hoping he will be indicted soon. Garland should have had Trump arrested for seditious conspiracy the day he got off Air Force One for the last time. There is no excuse for his not being charged as a traitor to his country, not when the supporters he invited to attack the Capitol are sitting in prison.
Rich people tend to be entitled and that’s all Paul and Buster knew. Paul even had to tell his dad to make an appointment for his swollen feet for goodness sake! He couldn’t even call the doctor himself!
“We were 5 years apart and she’s my only sibling “. “Okay gotcha . So being 7 years apart did y’all have any other siblings …. 😂😂😂” sounds like he’s paying real good attention 😅
Justice would have been a divorce for Maggie, and a charge for Paul, that included drug treatment. Instead both were treated to the lunatic behavior of drug addled psycho.
There has never been complete "Truth" in Court, look at how many people are in jail that if DNA testing was done there would be a lot of people not in jail.......sad, sad, sad
Don't think so: they're still dead. The ongoing process of justice for us, the society, has taken a large, but so far partial, step forward. There are still three deaths and a ton of money to be worked through the system, including probably some indictments and perhaps some convictions.
Also it was stated that Maggie would get upset because Alec and the boys did not want to go to Maggie’s parents! YET he stayed with them AFTER he murdered them! He and Buster did! WHY? I personally think he needed to convince Maggie’s family he was innocent
There’s nothing “odd” about this witnesses behaviour!!! She’s devastated and grief stricken, her beloved sister and nephew had been shot and murdered. She’s facing their murderer in Court. She’s incredibly brave.
It outrages me when they say how hard it was for the family after the boating accident what about Miss Beaches family?? They lost their beautiful 20 year old in an underage BWI crash in the middle of the night, And this family saying how hard it is HA! That's a disgrace boo freaking hoo
You're 💯 correct. Poor little rich boy was about to face the consequences for his own actions of being responsible for a young girls death and HIS family was "having a hard time". HA!
I wish the lawyers wud stop being lil ambulances running around. R u hurt- physically or otherwise. Let’s sue! Those kids had legs that weren’t shackled to Paul’s the boat wreck night. There was plenty to accuse w Paul’s parents also at the oyster roast and said many ppl didn’t like that they were leaving by boat but no one stopped them. The police reports were conflicting becuz connor also drove off and on. It’s always been that way. There was as many reports as Paul that he was driving. Even the kid that went up the next day becuz AM had bullied her, gave a statement that I guess she was gonna let us assume Paul was driving but she never said. Y the keys weren’t taken and an Uber called wen the host saw they were drinking is the question. The club they stop at for shots - y was there not a boating authority posted at that popular spot.
Look at the difference in the sadness of her sister versus her husband. The sister expresses so much regret that he taught she talked to Maggie into going back to the house. Alex shows none for having left them alone for a killer to kill them four minutes after he left the room.
He didn’t even remember his last conversation with them! He showed no guilt for him, it looked like a classified case. I didn’t trust one word he said on the stand
@@debatmorkienation9224 Yeah I continue to be stunned at the utter stupidity of some of the commenters here that actually think this man is innocent. Even a 3 year old can see through this case. It's cut and dried for anyone with an IQ above 50. I can see why we have a senile pedophile as our "president" and people actually think "covid" is not the flu, the govt cares about their "health" and the vaccines aren't what's culling them....😏🙄
Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) says the same thing. They are "crashes", not accidents. The police refer to them in the same way, as the crashes they are.
Follow your own instincts. Her sister was giving her womanly advice but the fact that she called her beforehand tells me that she knew something wasn’t right.
And it appears many of the people who know Alex well now believe he did it...Maggie's family thinks so, the housekeeper, the man who fed the dogs everyday, etc.
I like how respectful and calm that judge is yet he makes Alex's attorney start stuttering because he was caught up in the web as well by contacting Maggie's family. He was overstepping his boundaries from early on.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I hope 🤞 this year brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎 I’m originally from Canada 🇨🇦 grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
A very sweet lady who obviously feels as if she's suffering from guilty feelings because she told her sister she should go home that day. So sorry for her
Why would he ask Maggie and Paul to join him at the Ranch and then leave to visit his mother? Not his father on his death bed but his mother? It's all circumstantial, but absolutely fishy. Wonder if the Jury will take it into consideration.
Exactly and not call her when woke from his fake post dinner nap to join him to visit his dad? No phone call was made to her let alone a no response. He said he didn’t see them, then said he thought he heard busted drive up park and open the back door and he still didn’t call out for his beloved wife to join him go see his dad? Why would Paul drive up and leave his mum when it was getting dark?
Maggie had “not a lavish life, but a comfortable life.” 3 houses, over a thousand acres of property with ponds, fields, beach house, city house, grand parties, nanny for her sons, hired workers for property and animal maintenance, multiple F-150 platinums, loaded suburbans, BMWs, boats, side by sides, golf carts. Looking for another house in Hilton Head. I’d love to know what such people consider a lavish lifestyle. 6:27
I know right😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah I'm lol and Paul a kind soul that's a lol as well,he was different around his family,but with his GFS he spit and slapped them,he was an alcoholic troubled man
I just started watching theNetflix series on them and they also had a Plane... This family is in a bubble
@@jam6636 The biggest bubble.
And never had to work!! I can’t imagine a more lavish life than not having to work!!
I hate how they keep calling it “the boat case” and not “the death of Mallory Beach.” It’s not about the wreck of the boat. It’s about the death of a 19 year old thanks to Paul’s mean-drunk recklessness and sense of entitlement.
I totally agree! Who cares about the damn BOAT!!! (except for use as evidence) They should call it what it is "The Murder of Mallory Beach"
Agree
White privilege
An attempt to distance themselves from the facts, as if it absolves them of guilt!!
He’s literally dead
I'm low income, live alone, I noticed sister-in-law commented that the family didn't have a lavish income. To me, they were blessed with many material things
Extremely. Wealthy!
Doesn’t make you a better person.
They were South Carolina royalty
Any one family can become wealthy when they control the legal system especially the liability practice.
I feel for the members of the family that had nothing to do with the murders.
I'm not pleased with Paul's murder, but I disagree with his aunt. The boat crash wasn't an accident. It was a wreckless action. Don't tell me he didn't know he wasn't supposed to drink and drive. He was wreckless under his own free will. That's not an accident
You think the young boyfriend may have felt the same like Paul deserved to die?
A bunch of drunk teenagers making horrible decisions. A real tragedy for all involved.
Not only was the boat accident pulse fault but even after the accident, he was still drinking and driving and speeding and being reckless so he didn’t learn a damn thing
100%.
Sadly. The elderly caregiver, a black woman testified while crying for over 2 hours and not one person offered her any tissue or a bottle of water. She sniffed and teared all over her face and no one cared. She took care of Alex's mother and was dedicated to that family. A sad reality.
You know what? You are so right. Even the tone of questioning was aggressive and accusatory. So terrible and such a stark contrast.
These people se black and brown people as not human. Wish is the other way around
I noticed that too!! I just told my friend how I thought the lawyers were condescending to her ( the caregiver) Very rude of the attorneys
Sometimes In life what ever you sow you reap. I'm not a raceist. But some white people are heart less. Because they was raised that way. But you have good and bad in all race
Maggie hoped “the Mexicans” would lock the door…so yea.
Of course Maggie did not deserve to be killed but from the Netflix documentary she was as ruthless as Alex in trying to protect Paul from being held accountable for killing Mallory Beach in the boat accident. Nor did she want that poor girl’s body to be found. No body; no crime.
Maggie also was involved in helping Paul cover up wrecking his pick-up while drunk with his girlfriend.
Maggie also promoted Paul’s underage drinking.
She did not deserve to be killed but she was not a “special” caring lady. She seems to have also felt entitled to protect her family at all costs and regular people were disposable.
THIS!!🎯💯
Exactly my train of thoughts.
Right & i’m sure she portrayed herself one way to outsiders, I mean she was Alex’s wife trust she picked up on how to do so. Secondly we all know Paul had an alter ego named Timmy & showed up when he was drunk. He was literally smacking & spitting on his girlfriend while recklessly driving the boat.He wouldn’t allow anyone else to drive & smiled at Anthony’s pain when he knew they may never find Mallory it’s sad. Maggie got in Mrs. Beach car to ask what if they never find her, how insensitive to say to a Mother who’s child is missing knowing her son was responsible. Smfh
I agree. She loved the name MURDAUGH.
Everything caught up with them. What a pathetic excuse for "Parents".
Just another phoney who loved the good life and all that money! They try to make them out to be so pure...bull crap!!!!
The son was a losing piece of crap who would have been a burden to society. Before his murder, he was well on his way.
“It wasn’t a lavish life, it was a comfortable life”. What on earth? Maggie’s life appears to have been extremely lavish! Vacations, multiple houses, boats, guns, housekeepers… this family wanted for nothing.
Right? White privileged folks that have NO CLUE
I would describe it as quite lavish, too.
Right? She’s also out of touch with reality. But that’s how most rich people I met through through my profession have been, especially if they never experienced being poor or even middle class. They don’t think they’re rich enough and they need to accumulate more and get a higher quality of life, and they truly believe people who aren’t as wealthy aren’t trying hard enough or they are screwups. It’s astounding how perspectives differ so much and people are often never satisfied no matter how much they have.
I ALMODT DROPPED DEAD!!! i cannot believe it took so long to find this comment 💀😵💫
You have to remember. This Lady is very wealthy, she would call her sister comfortable compared to hers
Referring to Mallory as “The token boat case” is classless. Shows no professionalism nor compassion for the Beach Family. I’m glad her family was awarded 15.5 mil
She said after the murders Alex wasn't concerned about finding the killers, he wasn't afraid. He was more concerned with the boat accident and getting Buster into law school. She found that odd and so do I. I think Mrs. Proctor suspects Alex is the murderer.
He wanted to deny Paul was the driver of their boat, which everyone knew he was, so that the lawsuit would go away. Zero sense of responsibility in this family. I can't believe they're trying to pin Mallory's death on one of the other kids. Despicable. Sounds like Maggie was right along with Alex denying that their precious son could ever have been responsible for the accident.
He wanted to clear Paul's name, so the blame and lawsuits would shift to someone else. Then, he could have whatever property, inheritance, and stashed money for himself.
I feel for Maggie's sister, because it's clear that she partially blames herself for encouraging Maggie to go to Moselle.
And it's obvious that she didn't know that Alex's dad was in the hospital, otherwise Maggie would've stayed in Edisto. Alex waited until she arrived to tell her, and I think she just made the best of it... not knowing what he really had planned.
She has to. "I know the person has been thinking about doing this a long time." Umm what? The poor lady she absolutely blames herself.
@@tigerlily4472 I dont think he ever told her. He was "gone" when she got there.
@@flenzy Why was Mallory on that boat with the wild and crazy drunk driver?
The Murdaugh family were bad people. Am I the only one who seen the documentary about Paul and his parents. Maggie treated the parents of the dead girl horrible. Paul’s behavior was outrageous the night of the boat accident. Alec stole money from handicap boys who lost there mother to a accident in his home. These people are monsters at best.
shay0324 - I didn't see the documentary. What did Maggie say about the death of Mallory?
Right! I feel nothing for
these literal supremicists

It’s true. They are all horrible for many years go back from Alex father .
Money, power and privilege over others. History shows that when a narcissistic gets this they will f#ck themselves in the end after hurting many others first.

Paul and Maggie may not have been model citizens but NO ONE deserves to be murdered by their husband or father. Absolutely devastating.
He took millions and millions from all the black community and buying liquer for it and partying all night long on that boat that Buster Keaton and Alex Murderdaugh
I disagree. May the girl who lost her life on that boat RIP.
@@elwinamaya1889I disagree with what part? Is it the fact that one should be murdered because of Malory dying in the boat collision?
@@WeeJasperVetClinic correct.
It's a family of murderers. Maggie killed the housekeeper so they could file claims from insurance, Paul killed the girl in the boat crash, Bustes killed à boy with a basé bât.
Alex wasnt worried about finding a killer or killers, as he already knew there was not one, other than himself. He hid behind his grandfather's and father's legal reputations, and power in the community, and believed there would be no consequences for his behavior. He thought he had planned the perfect murders, to get his financial liabilities to disappear. He was manipulating people and events, to make it appear that someone else had done these evil and heinous acts. My heart goes out for the sister. Her emotional pain is palpable and genuine, as she relives the events. Murdaugh's 'tears' are nothing but props for acting. IMHO, he is a despicable murdering sociopath, and he DID think about doing this for a very long time.
Yes Susan… I agree 💯
VERY VERY WELL SAID
KUDDOS TOO YOU
You know I thought he did too due to all his prior shindig's, but I'm just not sure he'd kill his son. I mean it could be they was after Paul and they had to kill her.
Just sick. Yes her sister was a really beautiful person that I think believes he did it .
@@rvingkeepitrolling8797 just trying to figure out the way this man is thinking
Not lavish? Money was never an issue for her. She owned 3 houses - multiple vehicles ( a Mercedes) and never worked a day in her life. She had house help --- leaving food on the stove and not cleaning up after herself -- but not a lavish lifestyle? WTH????
It is a different outlook on lifestyle ! The hours of work by the staff are appalling.
Didn’t have to balance a checkbook.
The sister is supposedly married to someone way way wealthier than Alex. To her it probably seems comfortable but not lavish.
Well
Perhaps this is what the sister considers normal or not lavish . Everything is based on personal perspective 😳😳😳
I noticed that too... Sadly she is VERY out of touch.
You know what irks me? This. "tell us a little about yourself? Lived in S.C., we both went to college, got married, Maggie was my only sibling". Prosecutor: You have any other brothers and sisters?
And she clearly said they were 5 years apart and he turned right around and said “so were you close being 7 yrs apart? Pay attn man this is serious!
Lawyers are apparently very poor listeners. I’ve notice that many times in this trial as well as others. You would think being attentive to what others say would be a vital trait for lawyers. Yes, it is rude as well as irksome..
Lawyers generally love the sound of their OWN voice😡
And she said they were 5 years apart, then he said 7 years.
They all - those educated Southern men- slow, dim witted, don't hear anything butt the voices in their heads.
I'm no judge, but this judge comes across as engaged, focused, professional, and completely in control of the court.
He seems to be Smart as H.... Love the way he makes sure everything gets put on the record. And he explains, everything,(it goes back to making sure everything is on the record).

You can tell they the sisters are both very soft and wonderful people.
Daggers flew out of Alex eyes when she said Alex didn’t seem to be afraid.

People on medication or drugs do not have normal reactions. Same with trauma victims which he has experienced a ton of trauma. It's called an incongruent affect.

My uncle was shot three times in the back. When our family descended on the town, there was not a place we could go without being followed by either uncles or the police. The uncles would stand by our doors at night making sure we were all safe. The whole town was scared. The fear was so thick. To not know who took your loved ones life is indescribable. For him not to be scared..... is a big flashing neon sign imo.
I'm really sorry for your loss. No one should ever have to experience that on top of being grief-stricken.
Exactly. Or fear for his other son. All he spoke of was being innocent, never a peep of what an innocent person would say who's family was murdered, "it was just a little while ago, the killers can't be far, can you do something before the get farther away?" etc. etc. etc. Guilty people just don't know how unlike an innocent person they in fact sound.

The way he had been killed had looked like an ambush and well planned out. It had unfortunately rained the morning he had been killed and it washed away the scent of whoever had done it. Later, the years to be exact we found out it wouldn't have mattered anyway because the killer had gone to great lengths to mask his scent. He walked for 2 miles through a creek and then another 2 through the woods.
Anyway, between the police and my uncles during the funeral and the weeks after..... there was always some armed around us. My point in telling the story... or some of it.... was that when someone is murdered the fear is so thick that you welcome the added security. And him not wanting to make sure his other son and really himself were safe is very suspicious.
I absolutely LOVE this judge. He is so calm and collected. Very much in charge of his courtroom. It's a shame the justice system doesn't have more officials like him.
Agreed, a very emotional trial yet he exemplifies justice without bias.
i said the same thing watching this and other clips. he really lets them get what they need to say out.
I agree.
He has shown excellent character and integrity in handling this case.
We need more like him.
Allegedly he lost his son not long ago and he denied to take more break to grief his beloved son and chose to return to court Asap

I LOVE this judge!! He is so calm and in charge of this courtroom. Most judges let the lawyers approach the bench. He is keeping the jury from being jaded and confused. Great job. He is a good, fair man. 👍
I agree 100%!!!
In
I was about to also comment on this judge. He doesn’t miss a beat.
Agree! Very impressed with this judge!
Judge belongs in retirement home.
The boys, Paul and Buster, were by many accounts two very spoiled and entitled boys. As well, Buster was tossed from law school after he was caught cheating. Paul immediately blamed someone else in the boat as the driver which was not the case. The video of Paul and his behavior when the police arrived ( night of the boat crash) is truly disgusting and quite telling as to his character. Also Maggie certainly doesn't sound like a compassionate soul in the 911 call regarding their housekeeper after her fall on their property which ended in her death. You can listen for yourself at Murdaugh Murders Podcast.
These are hunters. They enjoy hunting and killing
innocent animals for pleasure. How much compassion we expect these people to have? Who cry for the animals?
@@nicoles8176 Well some hunters do eat the meat. We can assume they did eat venison and pork, maybe from wild boars. Venison is tasty. If you eat meat, you are killing the animals. So, you're insulting a lot of people w/this comment.
Paul's Uncle John and Grandfather Randolph also went into hospital emerg rooms looking for the other kids to try and persuade them to say Paul wasn't driving the boat. Which is pretty damn ballsy. Who else would take the charges possible lawsuit when they weren't driving.🤦♀️🤦♂️
@@nicoles8176 EXACTLY. Paul just loved to kill any living thing. The poor wildlife. The men in that family really do seem to love killing things. What kind of brain does it take to sport kill? A Murdaugh and their friends kind of brain.
No compassion for her housekeeper on the 911 call - very matter of fact and almost sounded annoyed that it interrupted her day.
This woman seems so sensitive and sweet. I wish her the best after these horrible tragedies.
She has a GOoD heart and soul. See no evil, hear no evil, say no evil.
She is also naive because she talks to Alex in jail like she’s a second wife
@@D3LAWAR302I think she’s digging for info
@@D3LAWAR302what? Are you kidding me? Denial? Shock! Know someone for 25 plus years you just can’t wrap your mind around believing they could do such horrible things. It’s her brains way of comforting her through the grief.
@@D3LAWAR302No she doesn’t, John Marvin’s wife does.
Her testimony is so revealing. Alex was all up in these murders. I feel sorry for .Maggie’s sister. On the other hand I think it’s hilarious that she thinks Maggie didn’t lead a lavish life. Never worked a day in her life. Bought and sold properties on a whim. Rode a golf cart around her 1700 acre property. 98% of us would say that was lavish.
She was shopping for a new house after her son was drunk and killed a 19 year old girl. How could she do that. I think this whole family are awful people. Hunting and killing animals and selfish self centered. She told her housekeeper that she had to leave her doors open for the Mexicans. I am not impressed by any of them.
Yeah and she was also doing some work on their beach house!
And her comments that Paul was being treated unfairly…… he used Buster’s ID card, bought alcohol, recklessly drove the boat and was being charged with criminal negligent homicide (may have the name of the charge incorrect there) and he was going to trial a couple of days later on…..
It doesn’t mean she doesn’t grieve or miss her sister, however realistic description of the situation would have been more respectful for everyone else affected….
Looking for this comment. What would she consider lavish, I wonder. I guess jet-setting and yachting around the globe, vacations on the Riviera, etc.
Marian and her husband are obviously wealthy. They built a beautiful house and guest house on 27+ acres in 2019. Sold it in Oct 2021 for almost $6million. She's either a very gifted interior decorator or she hired one. You could tell it was a home that welcomed large gatherings of family friends.
The boat crash was was caused by underage drinking. When someone drives drunk and crashes, it is not an accident.
Correct
Worse than an accident. Borrows his older brother's ID to buy beer. Then gets drunk and then speeds the boat into a bridge at night with passengers. While the passengers are telling him to slow down. Accident?? And it happened at night. Stupid crazy.
Always considered it a crash & no accident with all the planning behind it: illegal ID, illegal alcohol purchase, providing alcohol to minors involved in a fatality, etc.
It's no wonder that Paul received jeers in town over the drunk boat driving. Why was this? Was he remorseful?
@@dianegroves1141 Supposedly not. He, like his parents, lied about who was driving the boat. I'd be pissed as hell if I was in that community.
I think Maggie’s mother’s reaction to hearing her daughter was shot to death is helpful for all to remember what this trial is about and what was lost.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I hope 🤞 this year brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎 ❤❤I’m originally from Canada 🇨🇦 grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
I blame that boat accident on bad parenting. They were all teenagers, yet they were out in the middle of the night, drinking. Paul didn‘t force anyone to get on that boat. They did it on their own. They should have called someone to pick them up.
💯 bad parenting and horrible examples of entitlement and greed and over consumption of everything- especially alcohol
@@Huckfintress exactly, and what is really sad is that once the tragedy happened everyone turned against them and portrayed them as devils in that Netflix documentary. They claimed to be their friends and wanted so hard to be their Friends and enjoyed every privilege that friendship brought with it … just sad
There was evil surrounding this family for quite some time. You have the Nanny who supposedly died from a fall. The friend the boys went to school with found dead on the road. The girl killed in the boat crash. The son and wife who were brutally murdered. On and on it goes. Plus the stealing of insurance money from the injured cop and the stealing from the woman’s sons who worked for Alec. This story is incredible that this much death and crimes surrounded this family. Pure evil. - posted by Bob Murray
Sounds like he's pure EVIL for sure!
I think there are generations of this going on in that family. Alex learned from his father who learned from his father that they are above the law.
That husband is evil beyond evil to be charged with the alleged murders of his wife and young son frazzled my mind ..smh
Yeah…This bad stuff happens around Alex - and his sons. And, how about his drug abuse AND the staged attempted suicide? This case is classic family annihilation. Alex is a Narcissist and his need for sympathy far outweighs his inability to feel love or empathy or grief. We’ve seen it once, we’ve seen it a hundred times! And, they ALWAYS think they’re smarter than the Detectives, but they inevitably will slip up somewhere! I bet AM wishes he took Paul’s cellphone and destroyed it…PS I thought that Paul being the driver of HIS boat was never disputed? Wasn’t it common knowledge? The sister saying Maggie was convinced that Paul WASN’T the driver, sounds like she, Mags, was in denial.
sounds like the Clintons
If Paul was driving that boat he was drunk and killed Mallory. And just as if he were driving a car he should have been prosecuted for homicide. The terrible murder of himself and his mother ended that charge.
Actually you are wrong on this - Alec owned the boat so the case would have continued.
He was driving that boat.
this!! its crazy what that kid got away with.
He was charged criminally and going to trial 3 days later. He could have gotten 20 years in prison. He would have ruined the family name. Irony is that Alex is the one ruining it!!!"
Well looks like he was given a death sentence for what he did…
My heart breaks for the girl who was killed in the boating accident. They didn’t think there would be an indictment. This family is getting way more consideration in trial than they will ever see. It was interesting when Maggie’s sister was going down the list of people Maggie loved: she left Alex off this list. 👀
It's shows just how much pull this family has in that county.
Seriously does anyone care about the girl in the boat the maid the mysterious death of an innocent child .friend of busters allegedly.
@@peggypasson8794 There were hundreds who turned up for the funeral. My heart really goes out to that family. Even the sister on the stand did not seem to be very moved by it, but instead gave much sympathy and good things to say about Paul, who was obviously out of control.
@@peggypasson8794 Even the teenagers involved in the boating accident knew that and made comments about it. Good thing the video cam pictured AM’s badge hanging out of his pocket. And, he admitted to flashing it to find favors.

I can’t imagine the pain it must be to sit and recount this kind of thing. She seems like a very kind lady.
I feel such compassion for this lady being thrust into this horrible position. It's clear how much she loved her sister and the family.
Hello
That love is very clear
@@marciasloan534 💔💔
How are you
She and I were raised in the same type of home. "Ladies were to appear in the newspaper three times: birth, wedding, death"...or perhaps doing a charity fundraiser dinner-dance at the Club..so this is very hard for many of the witnesses....the housekeeper did NOT want to talk about Maggie's underwear. I felt bad for the caretaker too.
the only remorse alex feels is the loss of his freedom and his pain pills
I doubt the veracity of his supposed addiction. $5M annually on oxycontin? That's about $15,000 daily. Sure, alex - whatever you say bud!
Nothing more than a sympathy play, as most people have dealt with or been affected in some way by addiction. Like a lowest common denominator. He's that bad...
Yep
@House of Solomon there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY HE SPENT THAT MUCH MONEY ON PAIN PILLS. I know this, been there. Your body nods off. That is a self-defense mechanism, so when u do too much, you nod off. Period. There is NO WAY.

If you listen to sister Maggie’s 911 call after their housekeeper got murdered she doesn’t sound so nice
Oh it was her?!! Thought it was Maggie herself … you are right, the caller sounded really cold
@@xana7088 it was Maggie calling 911 with Paul when Gloria was found on the bottom of stairs not this sister .Maggie was not a good person after watching all documentary for sure she was good to her family .but no one deserve to be brutally killed
My heart breaks for this woman. You can tell how gentle and kind she is - and just how much she loves her family. I send her all the love in the world and that her family gets the justice they deserve.
What about the caregiver lady who was in the witness box?
@@DrTiwade maybe you want to send her those thoughts and prayers. That’s okay.

Detail from the testimony of the paralegal that worked for Alex and was the first to notice (and report) red flags regarding how he handled settlement money. He had _bought a boat with a loan._ Interestingly _some of the stolen money_ that je he redirected to a bank account in the small bank was also _used to pay down that boat loan._
Might have been the boat that Paul steered while drunk and then he killed the girl in 2018. Apart from the drug habit that was the most financially devastating thing for AM. And devastating for the family because of the events it helped to trigger. When her parents hired a lawyer for a civil lawsuit he then tried to write over property to his wife so the parents of the girl could only sue him for less - and Maggie in May or June 2021 refused to hand over the property that legally belonged only to her - he could not use those assets (that he had tried to move out of reach for liability charges) to quickly come up with millions.
In May he knew it was only a matter of time before he would be busted, but if he could have come up with several millions he could have repaid the money, fulfilled all obligations toward clients and the lawfirm (he also withheld revenue from them) and maybe the lawfirm would have let him leave quiety w/o exposing him. No scandal, he would have to step down of course - and the clients would have gotten a surprise payment, but I am sure he could have sold them the lucky turn of events. He chose the clients he stole from well, no one had protested that they did not get enough or the believed the story that the lawsuit was not successful. So there was a chance no one would question or protest or suspect foul play when they unexpectedly would get 70k or 200k.
Stolen money paid for the boat that cost his family (and the girl) so dearly. On June 7th he murdered wife and son. He (as the owner of the boat, and it either had no insurance or the insurance would not pay because their son was drunk) had a court date for June 10th, on which the judge would rule whether he had to disclose all his assets. This had to do with the private lawsuit of the parents of the dead girl, and I think they sued for 30 million USD. I think they really thought he was filthy rich.
Alex had been busy since 2018 or 2019 to try and get as much as possible in Maggies name / written over to her - but that likely motivated him to kill her when the walls closed in on him in the lawfirm (January - May 2021). Shortly before the murder his wife had refused to allow him to sell property - that sale would have provide a few millions real quick. I think he realized that he could not continue to steal from the company, and that the crimes he had comitted so far would be detected soon.
The spouses had a discussion / fight not long before the murder over the beachfront property (4 million USD), I very much doubt he had told her WHY he so desperately needed money. But she refused to sell it.
She must of course have known about his drug use (for 20 years) - one more reason not to let him have more money - and she likely could not fathom how much he stole.
Only a few days before her death she had confronted him because a charity cheque that she had written had bounced. In August 2021 (so 3 months after the murders) he had 4 million debt with the small bank and his chequing account was overdrawn with almost 400,000 USD.
Maybe she should have gotten involved in the family's finances or should have added up ALL their spending and compared it to what came in (the legal money - she had no way of knowing that he stole and how much). Only - if she had bothered then she would have been surprised where the money for the boat or other loans of Alex came from (from the account that he had opened for stolen money).
AM had opened a private account the "fake Forge account" (that mimicked the account of a legit company & business partner of the lawfirm = Forge Consulting). AM would wait until the paralegal that normally handled the larger settlement cases and the "billing" was not in the house and then order her collegue to finalize the cases and to split the money that had come in. What the client would get, the fee for the lawfirm, all the costs they had paid in advance, and often liens had to be considered (hospital bills, Medicare that had to be reimbursed if a client got a settlement).
It was necessary to know such files well to not overlook anything, the ladies were protective of "their" cases - and from time to time a confused collegue would call her when she was not in the company, because she had been orderd by Alex to finish a file in a hurry, and she found the instructions of Alex unusual, could not understand some of the position (no wonder it was fraudulent) - Alex often ordered that shortly before 5 pm and preferably on a Friday when all the other staff and the other partners and financial department had left the company.
AM also instruced his staff to write the cheques not to Forge Consulting (a legit company that they used from time to time when they set up trust funds for settlements in form of recurring payments instead of one lump sum) but to "Forge" (in the lawfirm they called that "fake Forge" during their audit because it really was a private account that AM controlled. The name was chosen to dupe accounting deparment when they wrote the cheques.
And those cheques issued to fake "Forge" were not sent by mail (to the legit company), he always said he would meet their contact at that company for golf or lunch and would hand it over in person. Drove his staff crazy, AM had a reputation of being sloppy and disorganized, they feared he would lose the cheques. Larger amounts often more than 100,000 USD. Replacing such cheques is possible but it is a hassle.
Wow, a really good judge. While I haven’t followed the entire trial, this judge seems fantastic to me. Intelligent, engaged, practical, and clearly in control of his courtroom without being a tyrant. Bravo.
The judge is genius.
Feel so sorry for her sister, she will forever feel responsible for telling Maggie to go to home to support AM that night. The betrayal and heartbreak on her face is palpable
I am sure you are right. However, Marion, please know you had no way of knowing, as not any of us would. Bless you darlin🙏🙏🙏 No body could have known, please do not ever forget that🤗🤗
@@LauraBlair-lv6jy Bless her. Exactly. She didn't do anything wrong at all. The sister mentioned that Alec said whoever did the murders has planned it for a while...I believe he had planned it for a while and was referring to himself in 3rd person as many sociopaths as well as psychopaths do. I believe he had a perfect opportunity and took it. SMH! She was only being a good sister encouraging Maggie to do the right thing by her husband to support him. That's completely admirable there's nothing wrong with that. She had no way of knowing what was going to take place.
She should not feel responsible for supporting her sister. IF she does feel responsible, some good counseling should help her realise it was not her fault. If it did not eventuate that night it would have happened on another night.
They were five years apart: lawyer said seven. She said they were the only kids; lawyer then asks how many siblings did you have? Is this guy deaf?
“Once a cheater,always a cheater.”

No lady, it was not just a boat accident.
Paul drunk as a skunk, would not allow the others to drive.. he drove them in a way that would kill them. I know she sounds sweet, but she is despicable
.'' It was hard for Paul ' after the boat accident...she says. Well, it was worse for Mallory's parents , who Paul manslaughtered. Where is her compassion for them. ?
Exactly! When she said 'Paul was mistreated after the accident' my blood started to boil!
Not just poor Mallory’s family, but also for the other friend that the Murdaugh’s and couple police tried to pin it on. This family’s entitlement is disturbing.
@@charlottemallow4851 100%
just recently watch the documentary on the horrific and tragic accident where young Mallory lost her life., there is so much to learn from it.FACTS! and everyone here should watch it to get a perspective from all the victims.
Agreed! It wasn't an accident!! Paul was negligent!! RIP Mallory
The people of that town were mean and in compassionate towards Paul and his family because he was crass, unconcerned and didn’t take responsibility for that boat crash. A young girl lost her life because Paul was drunk. He put the lives of his friends at risk and didn’t give a damn one way or the other. Once Paul called his Grandfather and Dad after the accident, it was an event of deflecting from there on out. Put the blame on someone else except Paul. That boy never took accountability for that boating accident. The entire town saw it all and knew what trash the whole Murdaugh family was/is.
Agree. When she said it was an "accident" and acted like it was law because she believed it made me cringe.
Agreed. And her characterization of him as a sweet, loving boy who has been unfairly maligned in the press. Ugh.
Yes.
And, her poor family never received the consideration in trial that is shown here. The mother stated that she was surprised that there was an indictment.
Thank you...I just viewed the Netflix doc on The Murdaugh Murders(eerie how that rhymes) ...very revealing as to how manipulative this family was regarding the boat crash and other incidents!
Wow, her stating that Alec answered to her, who ever did this they probably thought about it for a very long time. That is NOT a normal reaction
Maggie's poor sister probably knows more than she'll ever say. Great sorrow really humbles a soul
My sister passed away unexpectedly one morning. I know how she feels loosing her sister so quickly. Bless her heart.
I'm so sorry for your loss Kahnica. I understand too.
I am sorry that happened, both of my parents passed unexpectedly and I’ve lived in fear since 2000 that something will happen to my sister. She hasn’t lived the most honorable life. I love her no matter what, and I just have this bad feeling.
My only brother died in his sleep one year ago this month. I know how she feels.
I'm so sorry unfortunately I do too know the infinite pain of losing my sister also.RIP Ashley Gibson 💔💔👑🙏🏾
I have a sister who’s been missing for 4 years. It’s the worst thing not knowing if she’s alive or not. We were very close growing up.
Maggie was tired of bowing down to Alex's mother and father and Alex probably took offense. He wanted to put an end to his spendy wife and the $10 million dollar son's boat ordeal. No Murdaugh will go to jail on his watch. He thought sympathy for the family would prevail afterwards. If Paul's dog tail video did not exist, Murdaugh would definitely get away with it. The dog tail video, phone and step cell gps, and the car infomation proves he was not asleep and instead up and moving around.
Very succinctly put 👌
@@KarenanneT Exactly that’s why this trial is so interesting The evidence just keeps appearing!
I agree 💯 and let’s don’t forget the honest and salt of the earth MR Davis the one that cleaned the kennels testimony today. He said the hose was not put back up like he always meticulously put it up. It’s bc AM used it I think. I believe firmly that AM hosed off at the kennels, after lying and saying he wasn’t down there, had a place already picked out for the guns, clothes etc before he went to see his mom. I think he prob had a hole dug to put that stuff in.
And her sister’s testimony today was very good as well.
Has anything been mentioned about that SC video from the defence after that came out?
@@KarenanneTYeah ! I wish the lawyers would be too !
When she said, “My only sibling”, that hit hard😢
This lady’s definition of a lavish life is way different from my definition.
What is your definition of lavish? My definition is going to order on a dollar menu in McDonald:-
I lost a younger sister in 2019. She passed in her sleep. She wasn’t even 30. I completely understand how Marian feels when she said, “it hasn’t really sunk in” even after all these years. It’s heartbreaking what she has had to go through. May she find peace.
I agree with that. My sister was 38 and she passed of an aneurysm it still hasn't sunk in.....I hope Marian as well as urself find some peace....they say time heals but it doesn't heal , more like we learn to live with it. God bless ♡♡
Everyone deals with death differently but to see it and for it to also be a brutal crime must be horrifying. I’m imagining it’s being put in a mental box to control the pain. There really is no getting over that, only dealing with it id think. The thing that gives me comfort is my belief in God and to know that I’ll see my loved one again. It’s not forever.

@@hunniedewreader thank you. You, too.
It's when Alex said to her"whoever done it..had thought about it for a really long time"...to me those words are very telling!!!
Me too. Very eerie.
I feel one of the most obvious and important issues in this case, and one that really no one talks about, is the fact that Alex really wanted Maggie to go with him to visit his parents that night and she never went. I think that this along with the kennel video proves guilt. Maggie didn’t want to go according to her sister but her sister encouraged her to go. It’s so obvious to me that Alex lured her over to Moselle to kill her. The only reason she was there was to go with Alex and somehow Alex just didn’t take her with him..??!! Probably because he killed her and his Son…
what do you mean? like he had other plans for her?
Right. Or he had someone waiting for her there.
Defense counsel tried to cover this (sloooooooowly) w/2 justifiers, asking her:
(1) If it was unusual for “Elick” to ask Maggie to join him at Moselle (bc he didn’t like being home alone), therefore, that request wasn’t uncommon; and
More importantly, (2) that, since her FIL *wasn’* in the hospital (he was home, unbeknownst to Maggie + her sister), there was no reason for her to go w/Alex, hence, he left her at the kennel w/ _PawPaw._ (bc she just loved those dawgs so much).
AS IF that’a a good enough reason. The only thing I wonder is what did Maggie think/do when she realized Alex was going to his parents’ house without her. Didn’t she hv an objection, if that’s theE reason she went to Moselle. I’d think so.
Maggie had said that she felt Alex was up to something... .definitely lured. She was seeking divorce...allegedly
He stares into space during some of the testimony
...is he seeing them die in front of him again and again...we can only hope that is his sentence until his final day.
“Whoever did it had thought about it for a really long time.”
Chilling
He was waiting for the time to instigate this plan , if he needed too . He did not come up with the plan on the day of the murder .
No. It was Alex and it was out of necessity.
My question is was the motive that bad that only death of those two could solve it ?
I got chills from it
My sisters are my best friends and I love their kids like my own. Simply cannot imagine her loss. Prayers up 🙏🏼💕

Not nearly as bad as the wife and son. They loss their life.
She's a good witness by speaking eloquently, precisely and with easy-to-understand details. She seems like the type of person we all want in our family.
The look on his face when she said "Alex didn't seem to be afraid". Says so much.
The most disturbing image to me,is when she is embracing Buster and the deadly look in the 3 Murdaughs face - It´s pictured and it´s very disturbing. I hope this woman is safe.
24:23 facts
What really stands out is that you don't often know what your loved ones think or what they will do. All of these people were put in sorrow because of money.
She knows.
She is a good witness for the prosecution. I feel terrible for this lady. It's no surprise his priority was clearing Paul's name instead of finding the killer of Maggie and Paul
Why would Alex not automatically assume someone was after him as well? Is it perhaps because he was confident there wasn't a threat out there? Why wasn't catching the killer his main and only priority? Perhaps bc that trail would lead investigators right to his doorstep? The sister in law KNOWS, she's knows and its breaking her heart. My heart goes out to her.
100% spot on!
Yes I agree I think the sister knows he did it
Alec left Moselle that night after Buster and his friends packed up his things. I think Alec did it. Or hired someone to do it more likely to me. But just for keeping facts straight, Alec did go and stay in different places after the murders.
Devils advocate: He had lost everything at that point including his will to live. He didn't care about his life at that point.
He felt he was honoring his son, in memorial by clearing his name.
I can see that.....
@@atonement7232 The wife had no life insurance and he noted that on many documents. She had 57.00 in her bank account.
He really didn't have a motive....
It’s weird the property didn’t have cameras especially with Paul been threatened after the boat accident makes no sense there’s no cameras
Only place without cameras was the dog kennel area, go figure out why it was chosen for the crime 🤔
IF you believe that Paul was ever threatened.
@@AnitaSouthallNO cameras at all not even at the house
What a disgusting COWARD staying with Maggie's sister, & her parents, after he murdered their Daughter & Sister, can't get much lower than that.
Hearing testimony in cases like this makes me thankful for my simple blue collar life.
Amen!!
Give me a break....Paul was driving the boat. That family did nothing but protect Paul and get him out of trouble. Alex tried to get Conner to admit he was driving to save his son.
What a nice lady and how awful for her to be in the position of having to testify about her murdered sister and nephew. Honestly she seems so kind and gentle and truthful.
I hope Marian can get over the guilt she feels for encouraging Maggie to go home to Alex the night he murdered her and Paul. What a burden to carry. Alex has no clue the suffering he has put upon so many people. It's disgusting and horrifying that a person could be so self serving to go to the extremes that he did.. the stealing, the lies...to his friends, his clients to his own flesh and blood! Horrible. P.S. I think AM's attorneys did a terrible job, bullying witnesses, especially Senator Harpootlian. Hard to believe this guy is in the US Senate. Vote him out.
The Low.Country Whites want the white Republicans in!

Alex's name and number is alleged to have been in the personal cell phone of a high end Madame of the area that serviced the who's-who. RUclips has a former sex trafficked young woman interview that claims the catalyst for her escape from the Madame was the violent rape with choking she recover from Alex. The parties were alcohol and drug fueled and the former victims claims this happened 7-8 years ago when she was age 20.
You better say it !!
I can't imagine losing my only sibling and nephew to such a horrible crime.
This defense attorney was a lot more gentle with his questions of Miss Marian (understandably so) than he was with Miss Sherry, Alex's mom's care giver. Who stood strong even after Alex tried to bribe her by mentioning that her wedding could “ be expensive,” He bordered on badgering her with his loud and forceful questioning. Miss Sherry should have been shown the same kindness and respect as Miss Marian as she is an honest and caring woman herself who was also grief stricken. Also, if they had such a "good marriage" as the defense is trying to make the court believe, why was Miss Maggie living in the beach house and not with Alex? The beach house that Alex asked her to leave to come up to his house supposedly because, his ailing father was getting worse. He never does go to see his father and Maggie was murdered soon after.
I completely agree. He sure questioned her like he thinks he's " better"...
@@kayakingirl7252 Yep!
He questioned her like she was at Fault, TYPICAL reaction of people who want to use others as doormats!!!
Mr. Griffin knew Maggie's sister. That's why she was treated differently.
I agree
My heart breaks for this beautiful woman having to go thru all of this yet she is doing an amazing job . I pray she and the survivors all see justice complete and find a small thread of hope and peace .
Too bad your thoughts and prayers are worthless.
Hello Erich
May righteousness and justice prevail - totally.
@@brennajlawrence1911 hey how are you
@catherinebranson3257 This family needs to come to Christ in total repentance. WOW, for the father to have his highest priority to "clear his dead son's name," - something is terribly wrong with this picture. It sounds like terrible pride and hiding truth to me. Brenna
"it wasn't a lavish life, it was a comfortable life" They had a freaking Plantation Hunting Lodge as one of their multiple properties. What planet does Marian Proctor live on?
A more lavish one than her sister did.
Place in key.west for one I love key west diffently had money id be there in the winter
Ummm ever hear of PROCTOR and gamble ?
@@psfanboy79 You mean Proctor and God? Oh........lol.
The most unorganized lawyers I've ever seen or heard. They cannot follow a sequential timeline or remember from one moment to the next. The defence questioning of her sister is useless repetition of what has already been said by direct questioning.
Finally, they have come to realize they have a court reporter.
Oh my gosh.
I’m no lawyer I’ve only been foreman on one jury but they will do that to re-question a witness on their original testimony
Duh, right?
I wonder why court stenographers are still required if the whole process is recorded and videotaped anyway?
Just curious?
The defense attorneys are so clunky and hard to follow
I don't mind the Defense going over the witness's testimony, but this guy takes up waaaay too much time saying "um...uh...uh, uh, uh...um" ad nauseam! I use the right arrow to skip ahead in 5 second increments when he's cross-examining, as I don't have the patience to listen to his literally meaningless, pointless noise.
It's almost like he's senile, at some points.
The way he stares at anyone who tells the truth about him scary without blinking. He is truly horrible
The dead-eyed shark stare of the psychopath.
So creepy.
That dude is dead inside
Yes it's very creepy
These lawyers sure do not seem prepared for this case
Because they don't have a defense. Alex is guilty as hell, it's hard to defend someone when all the evidence is pointed at your client. And I am sure Alex asked his attorneys to be gentle with her.
How can you be prepared with nothing to work with…the guy is pure evil.
The prosecuting lawyer adjusts his chair so that he can see her testimony while being questioned by the defence - so impressed by the prosecution’s dedication and professionalism in this case.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I hope 🤞 this year brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎 I’m originally from Canada 🇨🇦 grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
Sad she felt she needed to say that Paul was a victim of the media. The hospital staff was appalled by his behavior the night of the boat crash. Common knowledge the family was entitled. So sad
'Alex didn't seem afraid.'
It is obvious that Marian Proctor believes that Alex more likely than not murdered her sister and nephew. It's subtle, but if you pay close enough attention, you can see the implication of what she said.
After Maggie and Paul were murdered, she testified that she was terrified for the safety of Alex and Buster. Then, in September, she no longer was because she found out that Alex had been lying to her and everyone else.
Obviously, this wasn't a reference to Alex's alleged opioid addiction because Marian had learned about that long before the murders from her sister. along with the name Maggie had given Paul: 'Little Detective.' As she said, this was in relation to finding Alex's stashes of prescription medication.
It also shouldn't refer to learning about the fact that Alex had been stealing money and had been fired from his firm. If you listen to the defence and some trial commentators, Alex's theft could have created any number of enemies...even though no one really knew about them until the day of the murders and that was just two or three people from the firm who had agreed not to move on anything then because of the impending death of Buster Murdaugh the Elder.
IF Alex's theft or drug addiction had put his or his son's life in danger over the summer, why would that change once the 'attempted suicide for hire' or ploy for sympathy and delay exploded into consciousness?
In other words, if someone else had killed Maggie and Paul, then Marian would still be concerned for the safety of Alex and Buster the Younger regardless of what Alex had done relative to theft of funds or his addiction.
Why did finding out that he lied about being shot in the head on the side of the road by an unknown person change Marian's mind concerning Alex and Buster the Younger's safety? Could it be that she realised then that Alex might just be capable of anything, including without limitation murdering his wife and son?
All that I am saying is that if he didn't murder his wife and son, the fear for his safety and that of her nephew should have remained regardless of what Alex had done. But, it didn't. It changed on that day. She was no longer afraid for them. Why? Perhaps, because she knew that there was no unknown bogeyman shooting members of her family. Rather, the shots were coming from inside of the house, so to speak.
Today has probably been the best so far for the prosecution.
Exactly!
Nail meet head.. Beautifully done!
*The older Buster was Alex's grandfather not his father.
She started to put it all together, it seemed. She said Alex said they didn't suffer. That could be explained by him trying to comfort her. The fact that he said, "The person had been wanting to do it a long time." Odd statement for sure. With conspiracy to commit fraud, 80 ish financial crimes, and now murder, he built an intricate house of cards that would all fall by just 1 card at the bottom falling. It finally fell. I was looking up Mr Randolph to find the cause of death. 1st, no disrespect intended, but his $$ is in probate due to there being a possibility that he received $600k from Satterfield. That's flipping horrible!!
Did Alex resent Paul and his “detective” work?
"Buster Murdaugh the Elder"? Do you mean Alex's father? I thought his grandfather was "Buster."
I think the sister makes a very telling observation when she states she found it odd ( upsetting ) that Alex's focus was on clearing Paul's name in the boat accident and not on finding out who killed them, in fact he never talked about it ( finding the killer or killers). The boat accident had turned out to be what would have been the financial downfall of this family or I should say Alex's direct family. He wanted to clear Paul's name so he couldn't be sued any longer. If anyone wants a lot of information on this family, a lot of pertinent information, go to Murdaugh Murders podcast produced by a investigative reporter by the name of Mandy Matley. Harpootlian despises her and her team.
👍🏼
I've tried to listen to that podcast but I just can't handle her voice.
The info in those podcasts is amazing. And a lot of it is coming out in the trial.
I think one of the motives Alec killed Maggie and Paul because he probably thought that Mallory’s family would drop the lawsuit against him out of sympathy.
Mandy is the absolute best
What strikes me as odd is how many tragedies happened around this family:
A house fire
The death of Mrs Satterfield
The death of Stephen Smith
The death of Mallory Beach
The death of Maggie Murdaugh
The death of Paul Murdaugh
I’m glad she was open about her doubts about the murderer. If I was on the jury I’d consider her as extremely impactful.
I agree but what is so strange is the strong lack of physical evidence.
It makes sense that there wouldn’t be too much physical evidence. He is a lawyer after all.
@@deborahbergman3566 He managed not to. Somehow. I think if he had help it would probably would have been found out by now. I think - but he was there if he didn’t actually shoot them he was there and it was idea.
@@Renaenae15 Yes. And he certainly planned it.
This woman exudes a pure good heart.
well, of course! she loves her murderous relatives
I agree. She seems very sweet.
Not to me. Not bad but I see a bitch in there
If you listen to sister Maggie’s 911 call after their housekeeper got murdered she doesn’t sound so nice
My guess is that sister is a much nicer person than Maggie. Maggie contributed to Paul’s out of control and entitled behavior.
in case nobody has told you yet: Maggie and Paul are dead. They were brutally killed. Honor the dead and let them rest in peace.
@@dulipedu you mean like how the Murdaugh's honored Mallory Beach..? I.e. attempting to cover up their sons' drunken negligence. He was a 22 yr. old drunk driver and his arrogance led to a young ladies untimely demise. You ppl are so out of touch with reality and logic it's dangerous, pathetic and disgusting!
Thru her testimony I could see her beautiful heart and soul. It’s so devastating that father and son have caused so much heartache and emotional agony
The sister-in-law doesn’t say anything in her testimony that is beyond a reasonable doubt in a way that could directly lead to Alex’s conviction, but I find her testimony very powerful. She and her parents were so close to Alex, but she certainly has some suspicions now. It must be awful thinking that he might have been the one responsible for her sister and nephew’s deaths.
And how about when she realizes Alex may be the unhinged murderer AND that he had stayed with her parents for a while!?
I think she knows now that Alex is guilty.
@The Nation State the continued point of the timing and the fact Alec was identified to the testimony offered by those friends of Paul, for example, is not lost on me,but nor is the evidence we are yet to hear. I hope that in the huge undertaking that the jurors have, is not lost on them,and they do not find premature answers in the presumptions made so early in the case.
It may be revealed that the voice , may indeed be Alex, however any sensible person surely cannot differentiate between a voice that was there in person, at a time Alex has testified to numerous times, that he was said to be elsewhere, and the voice being heard and identified as ALEX but from a message or videoplayback that could give reasons to the point of the voice being heard but not in the presence or company of mr Alex murdaugh if he sticks by the times he has attested to , in that point, it would be reasonable to hear and THink Alex was indeed at the kennels , but the evidence may yet show that could not be the case. Now of course, this is merely a suggestion,
Of what is yet to be , and may be heard,but it is not unthinkable to have doubt cast on such detail in the manner above.
@nationstateukexcept the fact that a Snapchat placed him there at the time of death
@The Nation State placed him there by voice on the video. Close enough to see or do everything
Alec…. that’s what real emotion and crying looks like! Her testimony about why Maggie was going that way is really pretty important
Isn't it incredible how Alec can flip the switch from uncontrolled crying ...to calm and collected ...and back again in the instant of a blink of an eye ...especially noticeable in the car interview a few days after the murders!
@williamphillips2239 I completely agree !! I've said that since the video of him in the sled car , fake crying and then all of a sudden he was calm asking for water and gum and then at one point carrying on conversation with another detective about where he was from and I think it was Alex in the sled video inside the gun room who was sitting on the couch shirtless and kicked back all relaxed. He is guilty idc what anyone else believes or has to say. He did it , he did it , he did it . When they were explaining Maggie's autopsy, he at first looked like he was trying to cry, but then it looked as if he got mad and I was thinking I bet he is probably saying that B***H SHE IS GONE AND IM STILL IN JAIL BLAMING HER IN A SENSE . I can't stand to see his face when he starts flapping his lips and rocking back and forth. Lol
YES. N. GOD WILL CARRY. HER. N. BUSTER LUCKY. HE WAS. NEXT
Has Buster actually been supporting his narcissistic, greedy, manipulative monster of a father?
Yes and the poor woman is feeling terrible for telling her to go there for him and his father!
5:42 to be fair, he was responsible for the (absolutely unnecessary) death of a young lady who had a whole life ahead of her. I understand he was her nephew & she loved him, but for her to say that, completely disregards Mallory Beach, & her family/ loved ones.
I agree. It annoyed me that she called it just “an accident.” the other kids were begging Paul to stop driving and to let someone else take the wheel. He was a mean drunk, which means he was a mean person deep down inside.
listen to the tapes and videos of the kids at the bar, on the boat, at the hospital. the truth is in the open. I can't excuse all those who keep praising this entire family and their flaws.
Her composure giving testimony about her dead sister is remarkable. When you think of yourself in her position you have to wonder if you’d get through it. Maggie’s narcissistic husband is the killer, to be sure. He has faked his way through his testimony, throwing speculation at the wall to see what sticks. He has admitted the dogs were not barking at an intruder in the property and the time line clearly puts him at the scene. I can’t imagine a creep capable of killing his wife and son to distract from his being investigated for his financial crimes. What is it with rich people who think they can get away with anything? He deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison.
Let me answer your last question. They usually do get away with everything. Take a look at Trump. Do you think if you committed the crimes Trump has you'd be hanging out at his resort?
@@singlelifeok Trump has so far gotten away with everything but I’m hoping he will be indicted soon. Garland should have had Trump arrested for seditious conspiracy the day he got off Air Force One for the last time. There is no excuse for his not being charged as a traitor to his country, not when the supporters he invited to attack the Capitol are sitting in prison.
He is narcissistic and probably brought up with extreme privilege.
I bet he will.
Rich people tend to be entitled and that’s all Paul and Buster knew. Paul even had to tell his dad to make an appointment for his swollen feet for goodness sake! He couldn’t even call the doctor himself!
“We were 5 years apart and she’s my only sibling “.
“Okay gotcha . So being 7 years apart did y’all have any other siblings …. 😂😂😂” sounds like he’s paying real good attention 😅
I thought the same thing. 🤔
Maybe wanting to drive the point that she was the only sibling ?
This judge has an immense amount of patience 😭
Witness: “Alex didn’t seem to be afraid.”
That statement caught his attention, didn’t it? 👀
So happy Justice has been served for Maggie and Paul. Jury was amazing! 🙏🏼
Justice would have been a divorce for Maggie, and a charge for Paul, that included drug treatment. Instead both were treated to the lunatic behavior of drug addled psycho.
Mallory Beach didn't ger her justice and Paul. Probably got what he deserved.
There has never been complete "Truth" in Court, look at how many people are in jail that if DNA testing was done there would be a lot of people not in jail.......sad, sad, sad
And how about the justice for Mallory Beach? They do much evil to their love ones, including the nanny.
Don't think so: they're still dead.
The ongoing process of justice for us, the society, has taken a large, but so far partial, step forward.
There are still three deaths and a ton of money to be worked through the system, including probably some indictments and perhaps some convictions.
Also it was stated that Maggie would get upset because Alec and the boys did not want to go to Maggie’s parents! YET he stayed with them AFTER he murdered them! He and Buster did! WHY? I personally think he needed to convince Maggie’s family he was innocent
Feena Weeks - Excellent point as to why Alec stayed with them!
There’s nothing “odd” about this witnesses behaviour!!! She’s devastated and grief stricken, her beloved sister and nephew had been shot and murdered. She’s facing their murderer in Court. She’s incredibly brave.
Wth are you talking about, she is testifying about Alex's odd behavior after killings
@veithkilbert4253 right! exactly
It outrages me when they say how hard it was for the family after the boating accident what about Miss Beaches family?? They lost their beautiful 20 year old in an underage BWI crash in the middle of the night, And this family saying how hard it is HA! That's a disgrace boo freaking hoo
You're 💯 correct. Poor little rich boy was about to face the consequences for his own actions of being responsible for a young girls death and HIS family was "having a hard time". HA!
I wish the lawyers wud stop being lil ambulances running around. R u hurt- physically or otherwise. Let’s sue! Those kids had legs that weren’t shackled to Paul’s the boat wreck night. There was plenty to accuse w Paul’s parents also at the oyster roast and said many ppl didn’t like that they were leaving by boat but no one stopped them. The police reports were conflicting becuz connor also drove off and on. It’s always been that way. There was as many reports as Paul that he was driving. Even the kid that went up the next day becuz AM had bullied her, gave a statement that I guess she was gonna let us assume Paul was driving but she never said. Y the keys weren’t taken and an Uber called wen the host saw they were drinking is the question. The club they stop at for shots - y was there not a boating authority posted at that popular spot.
What a lovely lady her sister is. Her pain is so obvious!
Look at the difference in the sadness of her sister versus her husband. The sister expresses so much regret that he taught she talked to Maggie into going back to the house. Alex shows none for having left them alone for a killer to kill them four minutes after he left the room.
He didn’t even remember his last conversation with them! He showed no guilt for him, it looked like a classified case. I didn’t trust one word he said on the stand
Alex left them along for a killer to kill them???!!!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING!! Alex IS the killer, open your eyes
@@debatmorkienation9224 Yeah I continue to be stunned at the utter stupidity of some of the commenters here that actually think this man is innocent. Even a 3 year old can see through this case. It's cut and dried for anyone with an IQ above 50. I can see why we have a senile pedophile as our "president" and people actually think "covid" is not the flu, the govt cares about their "health" and the vaccines aren't what's culling them....😏🙄
Room? They were killed outdoors, or by a shed type building.
Ejrjo3epe
The greed here is insaine.
There wouldn't have been an "accident" if Paul wasn't so drunk
If you choose to drink and drive (boat or car), it's not an accident at all.
But, Maggie and Paul would still be dead due to theft of funds from multiple people.
Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) says the same thing. They are "crashes", not accidents. The police refer to them in the same way, as the crashes they are.
Follow your own instincts. Her sister was giving her womanly advice but the fact that she called her beforehand tells me that she knew something wasn’t right.
I've followed this trial from the beginning, and after today, I have no doubt he was involved.
And it appears many of the people who know Alex well now believe he did it...Maggie's family thinks so, the housekeeper, the man who fed the dogs everyday, etc.
The stuff this man was involved in, unreal
I like how respectful and calm that judge is yet he makes Alex's attorney start stuttering because he was caught up in the web as well by contacting Maggie's family. He was overstepping his boundaries from early on.

A very sweet lady who obviously feels as if she's suffering from guilty feelings because she told her sister she should go home that day. So sorry for her
Why would he ask Maggie and Paul to join him at the Ranch and then leave to visit his mother? Not his father on his death bed but his mother?
It's all circumstantial, but absolutely fishy. Wonder if the Jury will take it into consideration.
Especially when he called them there to visit his father.
This part!
And better yet why didn’t he take Maggie with him?
Exactly and not call her when woke from his fake post dinner nap to join him to visit his dad? No phone call was made to her let alone a no response. He said he didn’t see them, then said he thought he heard busted drive up park and open the back door and he still didn’t call out for his beloved wife to join him go see his dad? Why would Paul drive up and leave his mum when it was getting dark?
