@@puppy2haley Thank you. I appreciate.
Aw bless, Steve
That man comes across to me as a class act. He is the type of guy you want to call friend. Genuine to the core.
Absolutely.
Yes… I felt I was listening to integrity personified. Murdaugh had everyone fooled… like Satan. The last line before he left was cutting. I’ll never forget this eloquent King! TY for facing the Devil and walking away laughing last🙌🏽🤍🕊️🙌🏽🤍🕊️🙌🏽🤍🕊️🙌🏽🤍🕊️🙌🏽🤍🕊️🙌🏽🤍🕊️🙌🏽🤍🕊️🙌🏽🤍🕊️🙌🏽🤍 🕊️🤍🙌🏽🕊️🙌🏽🤍🕊️🤍R.I.P. Maggi & Papap
Man. This made me angry and sad at the same time. Murdaugh is a true villain. What a completely unhinged reign of terror and ultimate demise. He took innocent people with him though bc he was fucking selfish. His story is a classic lesson for the ages. ❤❤❤ my heart goes out to all victims of this selfish prick who still nods his head as if he gets it. I don’t believe he has it in him to get it bc he’s a narcissist. The only thing he regrets is getting caught.
100%‼️
@@Senteqmock "A classic lesson for the ages" indeed Sadie. Enjoyed your commentary.
Happy Holidays dear. 🎄💕
That man took his wife and son out. He doesn’t give a f about anyone. He harmed his own kid. He’s a monster.
Excellent point. As hard as it is to see this man’s broken heart from financial betrayal, this animal killed his own son, at that point he’s the devil and nothing good can come out of him.
100% He's sitting there trying his hardest to put on his best I'm-So-Sorry face... See look everybody 😥 Ahhhhh..Guarantee he went bsck to his cell after this and took a long nap. I'm sure he was exhausted after that performance and ready to get caught up some fan mail and future marketing stratagies on those bobbleheads
This Murdaugh family is directly or indirectly tied to five deaths.#1 their house keeper of over 20 years mysteriously tripped over a dog falls down steps in their home and dies.Her family sued her sons got 3 million Alex the attorney father stole the settlement. #2 A gay young man is found dead in the road .Rumors are the surviving son.Allegelly had been hooking up with the dead young man.#3 Buster the son killed by his father right beside his mother.He took a boat out hanging with some friends. It was reported Buster was to drunk to drive the boat.Buster drove the boat it crashed a young lady fell off boat and she drowned.# 4 His wife Maggie and mother of his two sons and #5 his son that was involved in the boating accident. 😮
@@John-xw5zg I agree with you I think he is sociopathic!
@@madonnaclark4074you’re getting Buster and Paul mixed up. Paul was driving the boat. Paul was the one killed beside his mother.
No matter what he wrote down, rehearsed, planned.. when it’s time to speak, he spoke from his broken heart ❤️
Brilliantly expressed. 💔
I see that your first name is ‘Gail.’ That’s my first name. 😉
Just Crushing😢 Praying for all of his victims❤
That part!
Was he victimized by Murdaugh or was he only a friend who is suffering?
Betrayal is the ultimate let down from a close friendship
@@cme2025👍
Betrayal then murder.
Betrayal, then you walk away a little wiser. Never murder...
The accused was a lawyer who stole from clients.
I don’t get close enough for anyone to hurt me anymore. That goes for setting boundaries w family too. ❤
I've been betrayed by a very very close friend, who tried to end my life economically, and it hurts so bad. I feel for this man.. 😓
Sorry you had to go through that Kennel but this person was never truly your friend to begin with. One thing I have learned in my forty-two years of living is that it's easy to find friends but hard to find good friends. Anybody can be your friend so long as you have something they want. But good friends who you can depend on and trust do not come along everyday.
Sometimes our closest friends are our worst enemies
What a dreadfully damaging person they must be. I'm sad you had that experience and hope you've recovered since
This man wants to be seen lol
Hm
Betrayal by someone you trust implicitly is one of the most soul wrenching experiences you can ever have. It not only makes you question the betrayer, it makes you question and doubt yourself.
And every human being after...😮
It makes you question everyone and everything you ever thought you knew. It’s difficult to recover from and the path to healing is wrought with a deep sense of mourning. Mourning the living is far greater a struggle than mourning the dead. I hope these survivors can find the strength to go on and recover and find healing and happiness. And May they all find a way to trust again.
So true.
TRUELY to be BETRAYED by someone your heart has TRUSTED IS a living death. It kills the INNOCENCE that once lived in a person and they are NEVER the same......
This statement you’ve made could not be a truer one. You put my thoughts into words. Thank you.
This man is a saint. I’m so moved by his wisdom and ability to handle himself with nothing but integrity and humanity. I pray he finds peace with this situation. Bless his heart.
what are you basing your decision of the bearded man ( I assume you meant him ) being a ' saint' because of , if I may respectfully ask?
do you know him personally?
(edit: I honestly want to know ...to me , he just had a hard time expressing his thoughts due to his being so emotionally vetted in the relationship w the perpetrator but ...I wanna experience how he "handles himself with humanity " if you'll share ...)
@@DaddyRobotX15you’re slow.
@@wackybrattyx Enjoyed your comment 09timae. DaddyRobotx15, in all his glory, simply enjoys ruffling the feathers of his fellow man.
What a wonderful friend to be betrayed by such a horrible monster
Poor guy ! I hope he can find healing from this betrayal.
What did Murdaugh do to him?
God bless this gentleman who has more grace in one finger than Alec in all of his body.
Thank You for all you said...I am so sorry for your loss...Don't let this monster out!!!!!
When he said he would have given Murdaugh the money, that was a dagger to the heart.
To BETRAY a friend like THAT is as mean, heartless, nasty and EVIL as one can get!!
@larrydewein well this is what folk that pretend to care and like people usually do.
Now that was a friend!😮😮😮😮
There is nothing worse than being betrayed by a close friend.
Blah blah
@@SalAcceturra I bet you are another useless one just like Alex.
And family members
@@SalAcceturrashut up
Jesus went through it
Alex isn't sorry about what he's done to peoples lives he's sorry he got caught. 💩💩💩💩💩💩
He had lots of fun off others and has no soul. His eyes are dead!!!
Alex's face tells it all: he is incapable of empathy and fells NO REMORSE for his crimes!
@sherriarmstrong936 none of these words mean one thing to Alex
Feel so sorry for the victims of this evil man.
Powerfully delivered with pure class and dignity
Indeed 🙏🏽
The reason for Alex actions is good ole American greed. If he didn't get caught he would still be doing what he loves.
Yeap
Greed is everywhere.
I really do think majority of the money Alex blowed through was pills though, the real pills he was taking aren’t cheap. $30 a pop and he might was getting a deal for getting a lot at one but imagine every pill he took or snorted was $20 out of your wallet. Maggie and him kept living this privileged wealthy life but behind the scenes most of the money for type of lifestyle Alex was snorting away. Why he had to steal to feed the lifestyle and addiction
This level of forgiveness is amazing to see
This man speaking has a heart of gold .
May God please bring you peace kind sir for what you had to go through because of that evil man.
This man is pulling all his strength to get through looking at someone he " thought was a friend ". Preaching the TRUTH 💯 % about Alex Murdaugh. It's heartbreaking to see so many people hurt and betrayed. Justice has prevailed
There's partial justice but it's too late for some because people had a habit of dying around Alex (eg. housekeeper). Victims are still without thousands and even millions of dollars due to Alex's fraud. I hope he hasn't hidden assets overseas.
If you only knew this “victim “
@@TheJennyg76 are you 1 of his victims? If so, I cannot even imagine how you feel.
There's no justice in this life the court system is just a joke but the next life will be the real judge who will judge with Justice and fairness he has made a mockery of today but God will always have the last word
This man is a saint in my book. May God bless this man and his family 😢
It's a good thing your book is not the final arbiter
@@SalAcceturra I stand by my comment..... PERIOD
@@SalAcceturrawhy be ugly when someone is paying this amazing man a well deserved compliment... You realize the comment wasn't directed towards the monstrous "man" in orange, right? I applaud that man for getting up in front of everyone and admitting they became good friends. There are so many that would be too embarrassed to admit that they didn't see the signs. That man's heart is broken! He's grieving the loss of the family friends that put forth effort to make him and his family feel welcome just to be betrayed by the SAME ANIMAL willing to take the lives of his family like the worst kind of coward you could imagine! So maybe calling this man a saint isn't an official title, but the courage and the heart to come forward with that level of disgust and honesty and emotion... He's a good man and that was a hard task that I don't think I could do.
But if we want to be childish about it... It's 2:1. The man's a saint. Majority vote wins. Bye.
@@rondakamakahi3772 You are CORRECT! Pay no attention as she is either looking desperately for attention or not mentally competent!!
@@SalAcceturrait’s a good thing you’re behind that keyboard spouting off stupid shit
Broken man. What a nice gentleman who was betrayed by a monster. My heart to this man.
@@Hank--Mardukas Racist
What an utterly brilliant, vibrant man. Alex doesn't deserve to breathe the same air as him.
Sir, you’re honorable and strong.
Very powerful words.
You don't get more honorable than Jordan Jinks. I salute him.
This man is not an animal, because animals don't kill their family for money. He is a devil. I'm so sorry to all his victims
Exactly!!!
Bears eat their young sometimes. Also lions
@@carper6160 I said for money. 🤔
@@carper6160 Not for the same reasons as humans do
man! got really emotional hearing that gentlemen speak, so much pain!
That’s the most emotion I’ve seen out of him. Wild.
Honestly I listen to it twice. I had to because he just got to me. No one could’ve said it more eloquently even though I don’t think it got to Alex whatsoever.
Broken trust and a broken heart. 💔. This man was obviously a fabulous friend. And it didn’t matter to Murdaugh.
No one matters to Alex except his self.
So powerful. Good man speaking right here ❤️
Betrayal only comes from friends and family.
Family and close friends are the only ones who know you really well and your weak and tender spots to dig the knife of betrayal in.
And spouses.
Amen to both your statements friends family and ex spouse's.... Soooo very true.
No shit Sherlock
Wow this was one of the most powerful victim impact statements I’ve ever heard !!! God bless this man and the rest of the victims… this man has no remorse or he would admit to what he did to his own wife and son… May God have Mercy on his soul
God will not do that
His eyes are empty, he is soulless
I noticed his eyes are dark, his soul is lost
@@kimberley1449ah shut up
He convinced himself he did them a favor. He didn't want his wife to go through the agony and financial destitution of finding out everything he'd done, and his son was on the fast track to jail, especially with no money or family standing to keep him out. At least, that's what he told himself. "I would never HURT them".
Even now there is respect shown despite the crimes.
This man's testimony really hit hard. You could feel his deep sadness, but I'm so glad he was able to articulate exactly what Alex did and the IMPACT it made on him as well as the people he willingly stole from. I don't know how Alex became the this creature, but I'd imagine that it was years and years in the making. I still believe that when you are so centered on your own wealth, success and how you are seen in the community, you stop seeing other people. They become ONLY ONLY an asset to that or a liability.
What a gentleman. A real man of GOD
Yes indeed. Such a good man of God. God bless!!
Wow! This man spoke the truth so eloquently. For ONCE, I think Alex actually got it!
Doubt it.
@@lyndajones8330 after I wrote this, It occurred to me that AM probably just tasted honesty and immediately spit it out!
praying for all the victims and praying for the outcome of mercy stated here too... in Jesus' precious name AMEN💧🙏🕊️
Alex will never ever get it. He is heartless.
I agree with you, I think he did get it.
JJ is a long time friend /family of mine. He’s like a brother to me.His father had a store right across the street from my dad’s church in Yemassee. He went to school with my sisters and though I’m a lil younger than him,he always treated me like a lil brother. Like his father,they are good people. His dad pasted away some years ago but he’s living through him. What he said was from the heart.. it’s sad because I know Murdaugh was loved by many.. it’s just soo sad to see this.Proud of u JJ❤️❤️❤️💪🏾👑
I couldn't even finish the video. This hurt so much! And the worst part is that if the roles had been reversed, Alex would not have been so kind or generous. What a terrible man Murdaugh is!
Facts ❤
My heart goes out to the victims.
I deeply feel for this man, betrayal is one of the most hurtful and hateful things you can do to another!!
I love this man! This breaks my heart.
Beautifully said.
this about had me in tears
Wow... good on you, he needed to hear the truth and you delivered it so well! Hope you and everyone else affected by this horrible person will be OK.
Nothing more powerful than a person speaking from love.
It broke my heart ❤️ to see this man breakdown behind the betrayal and choices this monster made. As this man asked, “WHAT TYPE OF ANIMAL ARE YOU?” How could this person that so many people trusted throw it ALL away? I pray for this poor man and his family. You can see that he still has a heart of Love and still holds compassion. CLASS ACT!
The fact that his friend said "You could have asked for my money, and I would have helped you" speaks to the enormity of his spirit
yes
God bless and heal this man and all involved.😭
This victim statement definitely wins a trophy 🏆
Some of the victims were in dire need of the money that was stolen from them. The housekeeper’s sons were being evicted from their home and the two girls with the trust fund had to beg to get money for basic household and hygiene items. He hurt many people in many different levels .It hurts to think you know someone as a friend and they turn out to be a murdering monster.
Wow. What a passionate speech about his family.
I’d give anything to have a friend like this man that just spoke here.
So much respect for this man. God bless & keep him, his family & all the other victims of Mr Murdough 😢
Please dont insult our animal kingdom
😭
Good point.
That's right! Animals don't kill for gains of money status or pleasure like people do. I wish people would stop saying this I have been hearing this alot lately 😒
@@leanne2698, you obviously don’t know about chimps 😂. They have very complex societies and kill for power and rank.
Please, I love animals too. I realize animals kill for 2 reasons food and fear. However, understand humans are higher functioning mammals. We are supposed to be better than animals. Humans are supposed to love care support one another. We have high decision-making skills, and we are supposed to not steal murder. We are supposed to have morals, integrity, and honor. Animals could care less about life in general. I own 2 cats and dogs in my life.As much as I care about them, I won't eat from the same bowl from them. Besides, nobody wants to be compared to an animal. This Alex is a wolf weasel and a cockroach for what he did.
May Mr Jinks and his family get some kind of peace and justice from this. He clearly is an honest, loyal friend who has been deeply wounded. I don't know if he and the other victims are in legal cases to try and get some money back from Murdaugh's estate but I hope they can at least recoup something!
WOW-he’s crushed because he thought that was a his friend aka (like brother).
What a class act this man is.
Damn these two were friends and brothers this is sad man
You have witnessed what it looks like to trust a homicidal psycho narcissist.
@@inigauxreign9985what happened to the black man
Don’t tear up man, be happy you’re still alive, he didn’t even have mercy for his own family let alone friends.
Nothing wrong for a strong, loving man to cry. It hurt him deeply.
What man of integrity...
Powerful, this man is real!
That was so powerful
Alex Murdaugh face rushed with a blush of 😳 embarrassment listening to this honorable man. He turned real pink real quick. " what kind of animal are you? ". Damn, that's Real Eyes Realize Real Lies
Murdach was more upset over this than killing his family
I feel sorry for all these people he hurt. They were friends and this has hit him hard. I hope he is able to heal and find peace.
His comments about the bobble heads at the end truthful and priceless.
BRAVO 👏🏼 👏🏼👏🏼. Heartfelt and honest. Beautifully spoken.
This shows exactly why the allocution phase is so important to everyone involved in trials.
Sending hope and blessings for a better future to all of his victims.
His grace.... and his remembering Maggie's kindness to them, and service to them - and saying I would have given you the money if you'd have just asked.....
heartbreaking.
"Do you know what you just threw away?" Amen.
Phenomenal stuff,... agreed... powerful 😢
God bless him, his family, all the others victimized and their families... and even AM, that he would see the truth.
In Jesus' precious name, AMEN and AMEN 💧🙏🕊️
Addiction makes you do unthinkable acts and hurt the people you love and the people around you.
Nope. Doesnt make you. You let it.
That's an Awesome Friend to have 💙
Much respect to Jordan Jinks to come forward for everyone to hear. People make choices!!!!!
This man is just like me, when I get emotional I can't talk.
What a sweet wonderful man. How could you do this to a life long friend! I hope Alex never has a good nights sleep in prison. No one in his family was in The courtroom. 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
I know. This family didn't want to face these people because they are full of shame
The pain was palpable!! So sad. 😞
That's an honorable, and kind hearted man right there!
You can tell this man's testimony got to Alex.
I politely disagree… He killed his own child…. I don’t think he feels for anyone other then himself…
@boondocksaint11 The expression on his face gave methat impression, but I do understand your point. I still don't understand why he killed them. Alex still insists in this video he wouldn't hurt them, although it was clear he was there during the murders.
@@pamelarobinson67He does not care for anyone except his self.
I think Murderer Murdaugh is perhaps uncomfortable here and that’s it. He’s not capable of feeling empathy, shame or guilt.
@@pamelarobinson67 Yeah he doesn’t care
Never put that much trust in man.
Kudos Sir you are brave and truthful so sorry for the pain and hurt Murdoch has inflicted upon you and your wife and family as well as all the victims Murdoch stole from. 💙 so so sorry.
I cried through this whole thing. This man made me think of someone who screwed me over really bad. It was a long time ago and it just made me think that people who screw friends over are just really sick. You have to forgive them, and move on or it eats you up like an evil sickness😢
Why do people always have to say nasty things. JJ was genuinely speaking. They were close for years. You can feel his pain through his words and emotions.
Oh... who said nasty things? Haven't seen anything negative about the victim in the comments, only Alex... 🤨 people *are* weird, tho.
I haven’t seen one negative thing said about him.
Prayers from the Netherlands for this beautiful man full of forgiveness .Deep respect ✌️🙏✌️
You know he killed the housemaid and took the insurance money from the family that was supposed to get it! I wonder if they go after him for that, I doubt it given that he is in there for the rest of his life! Was his kid at the court house today? The kids probably had something to do with the murder of that poor gay child, Stephen smith!see what money does!!!they are rotten to the core!
Money is root of all evil.
Talk about a friend's betrayal. This man is to the core😞
WOW , this man was speaking from his soul with all of his might . And he made you feel every bit of it. So sad !
This was truly heartbreaking. The pain Monster Murdaugh caused is so hard to comprehend. God bless you Jordan Jinks.
What a powerful powerful gut wrenching confrontation and impact statement. My heart breaks 💔 for all the victims. May God's grace heal and strengthen each one. 🙏 ❤
This is a true man.
I have so much respect and adoration for this man. He's a true man of God.
A level-headed good-hearted Christian. Even when they are hurt and betrayed, we'll still show love and forgiveness and seek to understand the motives. And why I'm the same kind of person. We are all human fail in different ways and do evil. Some worse than others, but there has to be a path to redemptfor those who want to be forgiven
His deep voice makes me so emotional❤😢
This, THIS. Amazing. Finding out someone you gave part of your life to who betrays you, cuts deep
Whoa. Good to hear a good man speak the truth to AM. I doubt AM will let the words touch his soul.
I tried watching this but I just couldn’t without crying. I had to a stop all I know to do is pray harder. Heartbreaking. 💔🙏😢
So powerful! God bless this man.
Well said and with admirable dignity from a gentleman who has been deeply hurt by a monster
Powerful words by Mr. Jenks. This marks the first time I saw Alec seem sorry for what he did. It even looked as if he realized why he did it and looking back knows he had many other options. To me he was an addict but the shame of his thoughts and disappointing the family generations weighed on him where he would rather die than be shamed. Our minds/thoughts can do crazy things to our spirits. Once we can seperate our thoughts and observe them we realize they are not US. Wish he had some counseling on mindfulness and none of this would ever have happened.
That was powerful.
What a genuine good hearted Man and real human being
That was powerful! The truth
That man has God on his side. It breaks my heart to know how his crimes affected so many people. I absolutely would love to give this man a hug.
Oh my. This gentleman's statement is so powerful. Bravo, sir.
