It's chilling how the "little detective" ended up capturing evidence that would go on to help convict his murderer. I'm glad this jury saw right through his poor theatrics and found him guilty.
About time Paul did something right…
@@gagelindell271 yea finally right lol poor sucka…
@@gagelindell271 easy bro too soon 😫
I’m so happy that you’re getting your haircut I just wanted
@@lstruggy nah he was just like his father. he was already the cause of someone's death and that surely wouldn't have been the last.
My favorite quote from the male juror: “He never cried.”
Reporter: “Yeah he did.”
“Uh no, he was blowing snot. His eyes were dry.”
I seen snot plus tears dripping off his cheeks. Dudes blind
I know right! I'm shook! This juror is not messing around. It was a major tragedy but the citizens of South Carolina are safe, thank you for your service juror!
Never a tear
The fact that he was being so normal with his son and wife in the recorded videos right before. Putting up a tree with his son laughing in the background mere minutes before brutally murdering him just blows my mind.
Probably he was hating every minute of it deep inside. Or maybe he felt better about himself cause he gave Paul a wonderful family time.
sociopath, no empathy for man or beast
@@MrsBooklover55 True. He could be hating that moment or seemed quite distracted..like his mind was somewherelse...🤷
Me too but I feel like he must have hated Paul on some level to be able to do this!
Does that not tell you something? The "hive mind" about this trial illustrates just how far down the scale the intelligence level has fallen in the United States. The media manufactured a verdict and sold it to the public
It’s poetic justice that Paul’s last act on this earth was to record his dad’s voice on that Snapchat video. The “little detective” finally got the culprit. RIP.
Sociopaths don't feel love, empathy, remorse or guilt.
He felt nothing during the verdict, and nothing again after sentencing, he didn't care he's going to prison for ever.. THAT is not a sociopath something is seriously wrong here.
Yes, He lied right up to the end--just like the other sociopath. Hopefully, trump will soon be given a plethora of guilty verdicts for his lifetime of crime.
i hear that and only question I have is this - is that somehow proven that they dont feel those feelings?? I just cant imagine doing something like this and not feeling empathy or guilt---I'm not sure I could ever sleep again...
@@johnalexander4654 Let’s hope AM never has the luxury of ever sleeping again!
@@johnalexander4654 The way it was explained to me that helped me understand is that it’s like a person who is only interested in relationships that can benefit them in some way. They will “act” in the way they believe they’re supposed to in order to appear normal in society, but they are always finding ways to get what they want. They will be nice to people who can help them (family, friends, etc) and if you cannot help them then they have no need for you. Alex benefitted from all of his relationships, whether it gave him power, money, local “fame” and that’s why he spent so much time keeping up appearances.
Rip Mallory, Steven, Gloria, Maggie and Paul.
May these families begin to heal. Thank you to the Judge, jurors, law enforcement, Prosecutors.
And the quadriplegic that AM stole $$$ from
Very interesting that up until Initial stages of Jury Deliberation, 2 Jurors believed After (all evidence admitted) that Alec Was INNOCENT of these crimes a 3rd Jury believed he might be innocent but not entirely sure. Other Jurors bulldozer them into agreeing to vote guilty on the baes of the Police Cam which shows the shells used in Murder. Resemblance to shells in one of guns Alec might own-- doesn't mean he is the only one in SC who owns that tipe of gun. They didn't find that exact type gun in his home but it still didn't matter- he owned guns - so guilty .I think 1or 2 of two of those 3 who wanted to vote NOT GUILTY " didn't want to face wrath from Media MOB ehi wanted Alec Doomed - for their own safety reasons!!
@@tinawindham6958 I heard that he died. 😢
I wish they would investigate the death of Steven Smith. In my opinion, Buster killed him.
Paul was kind of a douchebag and was responsible for at least one death himself, maybe two.
The jurors are HEROS with more courage than we can imagine. God bless them.
All of them being from that town made me very fearful that he would walk. I am so proud of them for finally driving the nail into the coffin of this hateful and corrupt family.
@@rosalynw.otieno1994 You should have more faith in your fellow man.
@@jshepard152 you should know more about subjects before commenting on a family who have had their hand on the lever of justice for three generations. He was keeping pawpaw out of handcuffs after he killed Mallory beech, and I’m sure some of his fellow inmates will remember when he was prosecuting them
I’m still haunted by his words “whoever did this thought about it for a long time.”
I am not sure who this Judge is but he has my greatest respect. Judge, you rock !!!!!

He's kool,very smart,n Black 👏
Well don’t take much to get your respect then! He’s a sorry judge and had no right to put his opinion at the sentencing and to sit up there and smirk after knowing he let the prosecution screw over the defense team time and time again ignoring most of their objections and sustaining all of the prosecutors objections
Smart??? He’s a idiot and needs to be removed from the bench and I’d say after the defense takes it to the US Supreme Court he will be done
@@stacyvandeventer768 ok Karen Vandeventer...
The Judge is a class act and a model of leadership. He has given hope to others in our legal system.
So many don't have this kind of integrity !
I think he may have opened room for appeal unfortunately though, we shall see!
He lost his own son two weeks before this trial started. 😪

@@malinoisnation9392 wtf

This Judge is worst judge I’ve ever seen.
I believe this case has really drove home how one can appear a certain way, even to family and be someone completely different. We've all heard cases where the spouse is seen as quiet, kind, patient, caring, a good friend, a loving spouse and parent, then do something so horrific as to annihilate their loved ones. The reason is beyond understanding. Motive can be just as confusing as the person themselves. You simply can't rationalize the irrational.
That described my state of confusion in terms of this case 💔💔👍🏾
Because there is a shadow side to a person does not mean there is no light. Every person has a shadow
@@RK-su4hs I completely all humans have a good and bad side, but not everyone acts on their bad side.
@@alexisf22 not true. Think of the numbers of times you have said and done things in moments of high emotions, then greatly regretted it
Everyone is capable of everything..given conditions & circumstances “
@@RK-su4hs No. "Everyone" is not capable of killing their own child. That point isn't arguable.
The Judge was so calm and the message was so soaking to the bone.
Lolll
😮
I'm praying for justice regarding Steven Smith.
Sadly, Stephen’s phone has gone missing, and other evidence, as well. Unless, someone admits to being there, I don’t think his case will find a truthful outcome. 😔
@@dianealarcon8304 That is awful!!!!!
If the phones that pinged in that area….that would be a start. It looks very rural. Find the guilty parties by ruling out! FBI…maybe they are already checking it out!
That case has 🚫 nothing to do with the Murdaughs. That's all rumors. 👍 Go read the lastest on the case. An investigator on the case says " the Murdaughs have nothing to do with it".🤦
You know two reasons why LE didn't solve Stephen Smiths murder??? To them, SS was just some f@gg0t and the Murdaughs were involved.
Prosecution never let up.
I commend this entire team for an amazing job.
There are no winners in a murder case. But there is now justice for both Maggie & Paul.
In the end his son who was the detective, still left the most compelling evidence- pointing directly at his father. How haunting.
I know, right?!!
This prosecution team are a disgrace to the legal profession.
That juror was a lot smarter than she thought he was. Well done, juror.
When did Eva Pilgrim remark about his intellect?
This is not the first time a parent has murdered a spouse and children. And it will not be the last. His house of cards was falling down, and I think he viewed his younger son as part of the problem.
I think his other son is in danger if u listen to the jail calls he’s trying to get him to go back out to the crime scene and he refused but I believe either the guns are still there or he’s trying to kill his other son
@@stacyeandrew2
Yeah that was so weird to mention he could go hunting at Moselle to Buster! Sounds to me like a hidden message or something! Not sure what Buster made of it but he said, ‘No I don’t want to go there’
How on earth can you send your kid back to the place his mother and brother got killed? That’s so cruell , that’s 100% physical abuse! To sent Buster to Moselle was probably only to benefit himself! Maybe something he has left or hide on the property!
Thank God the Jury reached a guilty verdict! With this verdict they tackled that very sick and disturbed individu so he never can harm or hurt anyone anymore!
@@iTammy I do think buster knows. Or else why would he say what would I get out of it? Kinda odd thing to say to ur dad about hunting? And why on earth is he talking about hunting when he’s in jail? Who cares if he goes hunting? Makes me think he knew his dad was gonna do this and wouldn’t be the first time a child has helped a parent. Especially one as controlling as Alex?
@@beautifullady2637 have someone do it for him. But more likely weapons and bloody clothes
Why the need to act like well, this happens all the time, big deal??
I just want to congratulate the jury and the prosecution and the judge for coming to the correct verdict and sentence. Rest in peace, Maggie and Paul.
Fastest jury in the U.S.
The defense did an *atrocious* jobs putting plants within the jury.
Paul was kind of a douchebag and was responsible for at least one death himself, maybe two.
@@Joe_Bicycle yes, and the wise judge weeded those jurors out in time.
Y'all are terrible
Repent to Jesus Christ “Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.”

That juror was certainly well spoken. Thanks for that in depth analysis.
I agree!!
I’m loving all of the comments and different perspectives on here. This has been the most talked about topic at our house for the last 6 weeks. Just feel a great sadness for all of the families. I read a quote somewhere that said sadness is the soul’s way of saying ‘this mattered’ 😢
and it mattered so much!
To be murdered is one thing, but to be murdered by one of your own is a whole other level of cruelty and evil. I can only imagine the shock and terror each victim experienced right before he fired those weapons at them.😢
That's good, thank you. I will remember that.
Wow! I wish I could speak to this Judge everyday! His words were so profound. I’m no killer but he has me examining my own walk. I feel almost honored to have witnessed this moment in some weird way. The term “Honorable Judge” is very fitting for the wise Judge Newman. As I stated previously his family and all that know him are blessed to have him and know him. Many Blessings to you and your family Judge Newman and condolences in the loss of your son. 🙏🏾
Judge Newman should be the role model for every judge across the nation. He's a rockstar
Agreed

I do agree with this.
@@chevlife3311 Deccent , heartfelt man!
You guys did a great job. I really hope more prosecutors like you all come out to the pastures of our society. Thank you
No one in South Carolina would tell this story in its full breadth.
It can be a big scoop for you AFTER you fact-check, which should be easy enough if you have Becky Hill's book "Behind the Doors of Justice." It turns out not only Becky Hill and the jurors of the Alex Murdaugh case wanted "their 15 minutes" but they put their children, too, with them.
In Becky "Boo" Hill's book page 191, you see a photo of Boo's daughter with this caption:
Country music star, Dustin Lynch, and my "plus one" (daughter Aubrey) spent time together in NBC's The Today Show green room.
TRANSLATION: At least Becky Hill AND HER DAUGHTER flew expense-free to New York with at least three jurors who voted guilty, each of which PRESUMABLY has a "plus one," too.
So, at least 8 people had a luxury junket to New York paid for with the blood and tears of Paul, Maggie, and Alex Murdaugh.
It gets even worse:
At pages 59-60 of her book, Becky Hill writes:
What I learned on our flight to New York City after the trial was that three close friends of his [meaning of a male juror who voted guilty] all chipped in and paid the financially strapped juror his regular salary. For all six weeks of the trial! Several thousand dollars.
TRANSLATION: Thousands of dollars were being paid DIRECTLY from an outside source to a juror who voted guilty to enable him to stay on the jury.
WHO ARE THOSE THREE CLOSE FRIENDS? Why was it important for them that THIS juror serve on the jury? Was that even their own money or were they funnelling it from an outside source?
That is way, way, worse than anything Becky Hill admits to about her own misconduct.
This juror didn't waste ANY time doing this national interview. There is something not quite right about this. This is not good for America.
Lol…get over it
I am so proud of this juror speaking out and not be scared of the “good ole’ boys club”, or the community that no matter what the Murdaughs do, that they are innocent and they are free of judgment and error. He is to be commended, and we thank him for his service and his unbiased ability to provide justice to Maggie and Paul. I don’t know these people. I don’t know the state of S. Carolina, but I do know what justice looks like and he helped serve it. Thank you sir.
With regards to the Murdaugh Boys Club, they are gone, done. The Murdaugh name in SC is history. And it's about time.
"I'm so glad he went for his five minutes of fame, this story that doesn't effect me at all has been all I can think about because media masters told me to" It's very telling the people who support this guy because the natural reaction to the guy and how he's talking is to think "my god, if I was ever on trial for something THIS is the kind of idiot that decides my fate? He can barely string two coherent sentences together" also him saying the guy never cried was a straight up lie.
@@davidgreen3001I hope you're never a juror you are way off base.
Genius, he’s looking to “cash in” on one of the most high profile murder cases we’ve seen in a while. Jurors traditionally don’t do this and for good reason
@@davidgreen3001 um the video busted AM, he never should have even known anything about the murder times if he wasn’t there, like he said for 500+ days, lol.
I feel sorry for all those harmed by Alex
Just think about the ones we don’t know about,…yet.
I feel sorry that people think that Alex in jail is going to stop the plot of this...... It's Much more behind the scenes ..for any of us tho :(:( 😂😂
That whole family spent their whole lives hurting people. They can all burn in hell, including maggie and paul.
not harmed, MURDERED
@Disne- that list is a very long one 😢💔 Alex is right where he belongs 😢
It helps to hear this juror. Also when I saw the body cam footage of the police seeing how dark it was on the property. Nobody else was out there. The Dean of the college didn't confirm death threats. They didn't find any vehicles of get away cars, none of the friends confirmed death threats. He did it.
I think it’s funny that they say this juror is breaking his silence😂 he didn’t take a break , he went from the deliberation room straight to the media
Paul testified from the grave with that video. May their souls rest in peace.
Don't forget he took a life as well - then there's the whole kid in the middle of the road thang ... maybe not so fast with the rip ya'll
May Mallory beach rest in peace now that pos Paul has been destroyed
Oh yes may Mallory and Stephen rest in peace of course. I hope they continue with those investigations as I read they have been reopened.

Just because you’re a liar doesn’t mean you’re a murderer.
This isnt a lie like I ate oatmeal this morning when I actually ate a sausage cheese biscuit. This is I never saw my family again before they were slaughtered. Those kind of lies kinda make u look like a murderer.
This is just heartbreaking for everyone involved including Alex himself and his surviving son Buster. He obviously had some serious issues but to murder his own wife and son is just very difficult to imagine. Prayers to their families.
May be difficult to imagine that he did it but do you know what didn't happen. Literally anybody else on the planet killed his family. That didn't happen. So unless there's aliens involved, he did it.
His dead son deserve it 🤦🏻♀️😒
Stop feeling sorry for wickedness and evil! Alex only got a fraction of what he deserved
Yep, serious issues like being an arrogant narcissistic psychopath. Combine that with a high level of functioning and there’s a monster.
So amazing that his son Paul solved these murders. May he and Maggie rest in peace.3
"Little Detective" could be the title of a movie that features this horrific story. Very very sad but atleast there was justice at the end...
Help me out how did Paul solve the murders? Not being mean honestly curious
lol oh my goodness... because one witness said paul was an inquisitive person means he must have stumbled upon something that was so serious that his dad would kill him? I hope you never get jury duty... you're as bad as the rest.
Paul was posting a video to his friend just before his murder. Alex was clearly heard on the video calling his dog.
@@marshalljohnson8117 alex said he wasn't at the kennels. Paul recorded a video ( just before he was killed) of rogans dog cash to send to him and you can hear Alex in the background. That put Alex at the scene at the time of the murders.
Thank you to the jurors who understood the assignment.
Absolutely right 💯
How difficult and shattering to see a friend/law partner falling apart and then committing such a horrendous crime. God be with the honorable judge, the jurors, and all who have been shocked by this man’s callous crime.
Thank you to everyone who brought Justice to Maggie and Paul
The end of a dynasty ending with him in the worst way possible. I got goosebumps at sentencing when the judge said that AM's family of judges and lawyers and AM himself have sentenced people to death and probably for lesser charges. Wow
I wonder how many prisoners AM will run into who he put behind bars. Karma.
@@jvjdrn AM was a accident/injury attorney mostly. Civil proceedings
@@LadyBirch he volunteered in that state position, so yes he indirectly sent people to prision
@@LadyBirch his grandfather & father were prosecutors. I’m sure there are many inmates still in prison that they were responsible for putting there.

Mr. Waters and team did a phenomenal job bringing justice for Maggy and Paul!! My heart goes out to Maggie's family!!
For all of us viewers of this trial, this case should help us to be more aware of this kind of people around us that can hurt us in some way. Narcs, sociopath and psicopaths are everywhere. We must pay attention to the red flags, trust our guts and protect ourselves. Stay safe!
Ironic how Paul who was responsible for Mallory Beach's death, sealed Alex's fate with his cell phone video. Neither Paul nor Alex showed remorse for Mallory's death. The Murdaugh's lied, manipulated, blamed, and abused the power of their name yet again. Alex, immediately after Paul and Maggie lay shot to death yards away, tried to blame retaliation of the boat crash that killed Mallory. Disgusting. Now lets see justice for Stephen Smith's murder. Openly gay Stephen was not hit by a vehicle, he called Buster Murdaugh after his car broke down. Saddle up Buster, the empire has crumbled.
What proof is there that he called Buster Murdaugh? I haven’t seen any of that info….I know the uncle, also known as Buster, inserted himself in the case. I also know there were rumors that Stephen smith was connected to an “older man”. I always wondered if that was the older uncle Buster Murdaugh
@@basicallyno1722 No, the uncle who quickly inserted himself into the Stephen Smith case was Randy Murdaugh, who was a lawyer in the same law firm as his brother, Alex. It still seems very suspicious that he approached the Smith family so quickly. The first "Buster" Murdaugh was Buster's great-grandfather who passed away in 1998 at age 83.
He called Buster??? Never heard that? Cell phone proof?
@@basicallyno1722 probably more likely his uncle Randy, that’s why he called Stephens parents after to offer free counselling, very shady
Buster is next up to be prosecuted. Your entitled behavior ends now.
Thank goodness for this intelligent juror and the rest of the jurors!
There are still people angry that he was found guilty because they refuse to trust Maggie and Pauls time of death, and think WAY more weight should go to them possibly being killed at like, some other time after 906 but they have no proof of..
These crazy people out here thinking the jury got it wrong because the Jury listened to the experts and the evidence and put 2 + 2 together. They want 2 + 2 to = 5 so bad so they can feel smart.
Scares me, i pray these peopple get weeded out of Jury duty
It was quite simple and clear...evidence was there!

He actually doesn’t seem objective at all. He seems like his mind was made up before the trial started. He also claimed AM didn’t have real tears which is objectively false. Makes you wonder why he’d say such a thing that is so easily verifiable.
This juror illustrates exactly that a jury of AM's peers could easily see through his acting. "I didn't think much of him." then... "there were no tears, I saw his eyes. I was that close". Finally, "If you really look at everything, it's all plain and clear". No fancy talk, no word salad. He just called it as it was and so did the rest of the jury.
Despite all the craziness surrounding this trial The judge did an excellent job

Such a fantastic judge. This man was not an addict to the extent he wanted us to believe, his status, wealth and greed were his motive. Right verdict of GUILTY, very proud of the jury not succumbing to the arrogant status of the 'good ole boys club'.
Absolutely! Wish all our judges could be just like him!
Sound judge. And Alex’s claim to a drug addiction looks like a cover story. No one THAT heavy is a 20 year pill popper. Alcoholism is a twin addiction, & Murdaugh sure had permissive drink rules in his home.
Lindy loo I totally agree. I do not think he could possibly take that many pills and still go out and NOT ONE person noticed he was on opioids for 20 years. I think he tried to use that as a reason for his stealing all that money. I do think he took pills, but not to the extent that he wanted us to believe. They were also drinkers and taking high doses of opioids it would seem you would die.
@@lolodee3528 truth. If he had a $50k a week Habit he would be dead. Never overdosed never relapsed? I’m not buying it.

@@ekrip8 I apologize for my answer to you. I hope you can accept my apology. I did want to tell you that 22 year-old James, another juror, was on the Law and Crime Network RUclips channel earlier today on March 6th and it was a lengthy interview and he was very articulate and detailed about the trial evidence. If you haven't already seen it, it is very informative and answers many of your questions.
He was so paranoid about the bag of pills in his pocket that he never once thought about hiding his stash before LE got there. He was so worried about some killer still on the property that he decided to call the whole neighborhood over, including Paul's friend. He was so grief stricken that he never displayed any survivor's guilt, even after admitting he was there. And his life was such a mess that on the day everything came crashing down on him, everything was fine.

"He didn't cry. All he did was blow snot." My favorite quote so far.

Elegant and Eloquent Judge Newman!!!
I will never forget what he said to Nathaniel Rowland (fake Uber driver killer) during sentencing (it’s on RUclips): extremely moving and poignant.
Judge Clifton Newman is eloquent, measured, interprets/applies the letter of the law and shows pure grace of humanity💜
That judge should receive Judge of the Year, he had a lot to say before sentencing .
He knew in his heart , AM was guilty . It seemed like he was giving AM a chance to be a man and confess.
Glad it’s all over and justice was served .
Agree. The judge was lovely. You could tell how hard the trial was on him. 😢

Go listen to any number of lawyers on RUclips who said they are wrong. Law of self defense is a good start w Andrew
Repugnant is the word that comes to mind when I see AM talk… his conceit proceeds him everywhere he goes! Bravo prosecution team, LE, jury, judge and community. Praying for justice for the other victims.
HAHAHAHAAHAHAH
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
I kept coming back to this scene of the horror and terror Maggie and Paul must have experienced as they were executed one by one by Alex. The pain, the perplexedly, the horror on Paul's face as he saw his father with the gun. Maggie's thoughts as she ran to Paul of "I was right to be afraid", only to be cut down before reaching her baby. It was all this and the fact that Alex offered no one else to blame that convinced me. Now, where's Cuzin' Eddie?
Alex tried his best to throw everyone under the bus- Anyone connected to the boat crash, the grounds keeper, 5’2” killers, cousin Eddie, Gloria’s family gave DNA samples, too. With all his deflection, he never mentioned that someone was out to get him.
Like the judge said, he is duplicitous.
Yep. Gotta be a literal psychopath to blow out your son's brain.
Cousin Eddie is also in prison-
@@johnalexander4654 what is he in prison for?
He is in jail for conspiracy to traffic controlled substances, money laundering and insurance fraud among other charges involving his shooting of Alex
God bless the Jury and this gentleman . you did Gods work by bringing justice to so many people . My heart goes out to the beach family .
There were no tears... not even for his own flesh and blood. What an evil monster!
Thank God this jury saw the truth! Creighton Waters should be applauded for his excellent work. And the other prosecutor who did the rebuttal closing argument was AMAZING!!
Should he be applauded for the inappropriate press conference where he behaved like he won a Super Bowl instead of like two people are dead from murders where the investigation was entirely botched?
Creighton Waters! The GOAT of justice. AG Wilson never looked you in the eye when thanking the state’s attorneys last night, but those watching the entire trial realize your effort and compelling evidence. Thank you to you and your entire team.
I agree. I thought it was just me feeling like the AG was displaying some narcissism of his own. I didn't care for the AG trying to take all the shine
He was one of the most unlikable people in this trial - it’s hard to decide between him & the pathologist. He pretty much acted like he was jealous of Murdaugh and wanted to take him down.
@@bethanyporterharley7621 Waters seemed to have a personal grudge against Alex Murdaugh.
@@reneewilliams1747 agreed. I was sure it wouldn’t sit well with the jurors. Of course, now we know that the jurors were not unanimous when they went into deliberations & that the “not guilty” folks were bullied into changing their vote, so we’ll probably never know what they actually thought of Waters.
Waters was a B O S S.
Justice is served. Thank you jurors for not believing his lies
It really annoys me when the reporters pull the but it’s so hard to believe or so unusual for a father to kill their own son.
Oh please it’s so common it’s sickening !!
so true, it’s never been hard to believe…
The evidence was clear as this juror said
The evidence was very week!
@@berdellfleming5074 you can’t even spell weak correctly, idk if you should really be speaking your opinion on the evidence so boldly
@@berdellfleming5074 shut up pussio
The evidence is clear. Overwhelming is just a tad bit of a stretch. His own words convicted him. Most everything else he can conjure a lie as he attempted the lie about the recording. Life w/o Parole is fair and justified.
Overwhelming? That, Is being over played for which it is not overwhelming.
Without the voice recording he walks.
We knew he lied about all of it. The only thing, however, that curtailed any and all reasonable doubt were his own words.
@@berdellfleming5074: The evidence was convincing…the defense was almost comical.
IF I Didn't commit these horrible crimes I WOULD be Pleading and begging to the Judge this is a mistake . Not just stand there stone faced saying. I'm innocent... I would be emotional ALL Over the place many times.
And his mouth dried out ONLY when addressing his wife and the actual crime. All the other LIES he admitted he could talk fine without that rapid tongue moving
It’s going to be appealed so he can’t react or say much.
"if the reaction doesn't look how I expect it to he's guilty" do you have any idea how evil and sick this line of thinking is?
And immediately screaming at the police to get out there and find who had just killed my wife and son. Not talking about how my son was irresponsible with guns. And then getting out there MYSELF to find the “real killers”
That’s the ONLY thing that has me double guessing.why isn’t he concerned about the killer walking?!?
Not everybody gets all blubbery emotional.
The Judge was Phenomenal no other way to say it
It was nice to hear a juror's prospective
I think it’s so interesting that jury members speak out and share their experiences. In Canada, you are never allowed to talk about your experience as a juror.
Canada also sentenced their murderers to 4 years. Y’all suck. Get a backbone
First Amendment, baby.
You shouldn't be allowed to do it here.
Well Canada isnt really the poster child for freedom of speech in the last couple years. I only say Ottawa protest crackdowns with bank account freezing and declaring martial law of the government to silence and oppress peaceful people.
And that's why we are the freest nation.
Thank you the jurors and to all who helped bring this case. Trust in the justice system has been restored!!
What are you talking about? Did you watch the trial?
@@sprtwlf9314 I watched this trial every single day and feel the same way as Melissa G. The evidence was there. I lost faith in our justice system after the OJ Simpson and Casey Anthony verdicts. This case restored my trust, too.
@@Carol-gr4ql No evidence at all. Just your feeling.
@@Carol-gr4ql The prosecutor told you a story and you bought into it. It's how a lot of innocent people get railroaded.
@@kevinstrong8265 No, I watched/listened to the evidence (the video), read the texts, and listened to Alex admit that he lied about being there. He was at the scene of the crime when it happened. I used deductive reasoning and common sense. I bet you believe the earth is flat, too.
What a great, sensible, juror. Very matter-of-fact.
Thank you to Judge Newman, the Jurors, Prosecutors and LE for an outstanding job. RIP Steven, Mallory, Gloria, Maggie and Paul.🌈🌟🫶😢🙏♥May the other families get justice and they all begin to heal.🙏❤
Kudos to Paul for taking that video.
& Bubba,had he not had a chicken,Alex wouldn’t have yelled😂✌🏻
And killing a girl...
@@buggiebuild1 and to Cash, the chocolate Lab. Without him, there wouldn't have even been a video🐾🦴

All God!!!! Thanks be to the almighty Heavenly Father!!! Paul caught his and his moms murderer unbeknownst to him and his mom!
The quote "Oh what a tangled web we weave when at first we start to deceive" is not by Shakespeare but by Walter Scott in his poem "Marmion." It refers to the effects of lying and how as one lie leads to more the lies multiply, and we become trapped in the dishonesty.
“Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive”
I thought it was Homer Simpson, maybe Homer of the Iliad?
He was relying on one drug addicted jury member to excuse his behavior. That is why he did it and blamed it on that. I am a recovering addict and just not an excuse.
Thank goodness justice was served. RIP MOM &SON😢
Kudos to the jurors and the judge. Excellent work, professionally handled case!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA CLOWN
@@malinoisnation9392 go away 🧌
Judge Newman will always be remembered for his elegant discourse, even in the saddest times.
Sadly i read about 4 months ago that the Judge had a son that passed away. 😢
Yes! A WONDERFUL man he is! 🥰
Sickening a juror was allowed to be allowed to be a juror when his brother was a witness for the state!!! Gross! SC should be ashamed of this verdict of ONLY 45 mins
I feel horrible for Buster. Imagine one day realizing your mom and brother are gone and now your dad is basically gone. That kids whole life is ruined because of his father.
You don't know if he killed a person or not. Also I don't think his dad did it because there's no hardcore evidence there was no blood or their DNA on his body there was no blood on a water hose or in the shower there was no blood on the golf car or his shoes or in this truck. The guns had to be on the property or at his parents did they just walk away. The jacket they found didn't even have blood on it when that gun residue. All their evidence was circumstantial not hardcore
I don't. Buster is a bust.
He is not a kid; he is 26 years old. He is an adult.
Hopefully NOW people will come forward with info about Stevens death. Buster’s named was mentioned as a suspect. The chokehold this family had on a small town is over.
@@avejaly8065 when Dad FINALLY ADMITTED it was his voice in that Snapchat video - it was over. He did it. There literally was no way a mystery person could have appeared , killed two people and disappeared in the 5 minutes between the end of the video , and the phone calls. It’s obvious to those of us with critical thinking skills. We have evidence. It’s DIGITAL evidence.
Great work by jury and Prosecutor Waters. In so many ways a very hard case to win or convince lay people.
I think that this jury was made up mostly of lay ppl who were able to give two guilty verdicts. Ppl who work hard, pay taxes and try not to be a lawbreaker can see thru the facades of the wealthy that their lives are perfect. They all had common sense and that gave em the truth. Let me add that I don't think all wealthy ppl are fake. Many are giving and humble. I've worked for ppl owning their own business and most have been generous and fair to me.
Just like the partners Alex betrayed and stole from.
And I feel bad for his son Buster and hope he doesn't deal with this in the ways his dad dealt with life....thru addiction. Alex brought his troubles on himself but Buster didn't. Im choosing not to believe the rumors about him right now.
Very interesting that up until Initial stages of Jury Deliberation, 2 Jurors believed After (all evidence admitted) that Alec Was INNOCENT of these crimes a 3rd Jury believed he might be innocent but not entirely sure. Other Jurors bulldozer them into agreeing to vote guilty on the baes of the Police Cam which shows the shells used in Murder. Resemblance to shells in one of guns Alec might own-- doesn't mean he is the only one in SC who owns that tipe of gun. They didn't find that exact type gun in his home but it still didn't matter- he owned guns - so guilty .I think 1or 2 of two of those 3 who wanted to vote NOT GUILTY " didn't want to face wrath from Media MOB who wanted Alec Doomed - for their own safety reasons!!
@@christieprince6991
Don't forget...the judge conveniently dismissed another undecided potential Not Guilty Juror the morning of deliberations.
And SLED Owens is involved.
This lynch mob doesn't even know what ethics is...let alone notice it.
People better pay attention to what they just did to this man.
I don't give a rip about Alex Murdaugh but I do care about our justice system and of they can do it to him, they'll do it to anyone!
It's disturbing to say the least.
@@juliecrane9647
This juror was very flippant. He had his mind made up a long time ago.
So brave, huh
And the wine Mom documentary watchers are after Buster over MORE ludicrous high school gossip that never led to anything.
@@wendyc1902 just like your mind is made up about this juror from the beginning?
If you’re going to give someone the benefit of the doubt, it should be the juror not AM.
He’s right he had no remorse ! Rest In Peace Maggie Paul Stephen Gloria Mallory 🙏
Yes
…the list is incomplete
I thought Mallory was killed in the boat wreck and Gloria tripped going up the steps. Alex wasn't even there! Maggie called him and he came home. Am I wrong?
Paul was kind of a douchebag and was responsible for at least one death himself, maybe two.
I'm grateful the Juror spoke on the news. I wanted to know what they thought of the evidence. 1 hr for a decision means that the prosecution did a fantastic job and that the evidence was irrefutable.
I was impressed with and thank the following:
The Honorable Judge Clifton Newman, who was so fair, wise, and a Class Act presiding over this trial. A great man!
The Lead Prosecuting Attorney, Creighton Waters, who grilled Alex Murdaugh mercilessly, and exposed his lies. Great job!
Visiting Attorney, John Meadors, who presented the final argument so convincingly at the end. Thank you!
The 12 Jurors and the 13th Alternate Juror who sat through the entire trial, deliberated, and saw clearly what had happened. Many thanks to all the Jurors for their valuable time, and their efforts at rendering justice. You were magnificent!
The Court Clerk for all her Admin duties, the Bailiffs, the Security Guards, the public. Thank you for all the behind the scenes work you do daily.
The News Media for your excellent coverage of this trial, bravo!
All the Witnesses:
1. Marian Proctor, Maggie's sister, whose dignified, emotional testimony was so heartbreaking.
2. Rogan Gibson & Will Loving, two of Paul Murdaugh's friends who testified that was Alex's voice on Paul's cell video. Paul took a video of Rogan's dog that he was babysitting for Rogan. Maggie/ Paul/ Alex's voice are on this video with a date and time stamp. This was the critical evidence Alex lied about and that sealed his fate.
3. Ronnie Crosby, an attorney at Parker Law Group who practiced with Alex Murdaugh, who verified Alex's voice on the video.
4. Jeanne Seckinger, the CFO of Parker Law Group, who confronted Murdaugh about $792,000 in missing fees from the law firm that she believed he kept for himself, and testified to that.
6. Tom Bevel, Gloria Satterfield's son, who testified to the money Alex stole from their family after a settlement for a wrongful death claim. Alex stole over $5 million from them by keeping the money. (Fortunately, they sued Alex and got $7.5 million back from him)
Thank you all, from Northern California, Silicon Valley. I hope there is healing for the families, and may Maggie and Paul, Rest in Peace. Justice was served.
I heard another juror who was 22yrs old. He went through how step by step the jurors went through the questions and worked to get answer for all questions. For a 22yr who was first ever a juror, he was awesome and so mature. He was glad the jurors were able to visit the crime scenes. None of the jurors tried to talk over each other. Unfortunately I didn't get his name.
Thats impressive!
Must commend the juror for his amazing answers in these clips. Wonderfully to the point. Refreshing!
Too refreshing. methinks he went for a dip just afore the interview.
“All he did was blow snot”. Time magazines quote of the year nominee !
Ewww! Agin?? Stop with the snot!
Classic
Thank you for your service Juror!
It's really almost impossible for me to believe, if he was an addict, that he could keep his lies all straight for 10 years and remember what he told who and where, and when. Especially when he couldn't remember anything about that night and what he did.
Surely people caught him in some little lies, that made them wonder about him.
I DONT THINK IT WAS A MATTER OF KEEPN THE LIES TOGETHER..BUT THE FACT OF THE PRIVILEGE HIS FAMILY HAS HAD IN THAT COMMUNITY FOR 100 YEARS...SOME PPL EVEN SPOKE ABOUT BEING IN FEAR FOR THEIR LIVES...WHEN THEIR NAME CAME UP IN OTHER CRIMES...THEY WERE NOT EVEN QUESTIONED...THE REGULAR PROCESS DID NOT APPLY TO THEM...THEY HAVE BEN ENABLED ALL THEIR LIVES...ALLOWED TO CONTROL THE NARRATIVE AND GET AWAY WITH ANYTHING...THINGS IF YOU AND I DID...NO TELLN WHAT THE PUNISHMENT WOULD BE...ORAYN FOR ALL THE FAMILIES THEY HURT AND STOLE FROM😔😔🤨🙄
Thank you sir juror!! God bless you darling !! 💙⭐️👑
GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERY JURROR AND THE JUDGE ❤️
