#AlexMurdaugh #SouthCarolina #MaggieMurdaugh
This man killed not only his wife but his own son for money is absolutely disgusting
...And I'm not too sure about his dad's timely death.
@@BLESSFUL-Bliss and also the maid
Nah man. His sons killed possibly two people, NOT including his housekeeper. They had their own enemies. I don't think the father is involved.
@@MissSpaz not giving u a proper response is the best response to the crap that u just commented
His son killed a girl in a boating accident and they was suing, so I agree
A family with the law in their pockets are very dangerous. RIP to all the people who lost their lives because of these people
The corrupt state of South Carolina….
@@BigdogspykeI wont step foot in South Carolina since my mother died in 2006
Does that include black people to?
@@damien1781 everything doesn’t have to do with race, but yes if their money is long enough
@@shaydee215 no- it’s South Carolina
It's all down to money. He stole clients money, he needed money , then the well insured people around him started dying.
He probably serial killer...
Or started getting killed ..... *
This is a really shocking case
Nope! I deeply want everyone to consider the family of the young classmate and friend of the younger son who was killed in that boat incident 🤔
That explains the why, of his death and his mother being at the second home with him also being killed.
@@HoneySuckle123 oh he killed people outside his own family? Maybe to silence them? I hadn’t heard about that
Alex Murdoch needs to have his charges upgraded to 1st degree premeditated murder in the deaths of his house keeper, his son, and his wife. All of these folks died because of Murdochs planning, there are no accidents or who dunnits.
Murdaughs
Don’t forget the kid on the road with a headshot but hit and run. The 17 year old on the boat. And his died dying
I think your exactly right and some more things that hasn’t come to light yet
Exactly!!!!
They need to double check on the father's cause of death. 😳😳😳
They did
You think you're the first genius who thought of that? 🙄🖕
@@somnuswaltz5586 Right back at you, sunshine!
(ಠ_ಠ)┌∩┐
@@somnuswaltz5586 wow… who treated you so badly in life? 🙄
@@kimberlyncollins7839 himself, in his cave blubbering something about knuckle dragging and no spine, dead hands and an ingrown weenie.🤏😩💩🤡🤦♂️😐🤪🥂😁✌😎
The same law & order that criminalized a bunch of poor people couldn’t piece together that this man was a criminal. 5 people have died around this man ALL under suspicious circumstances & no arrests until he tries to whack himself to collect on the insurance policy. Sounds like carolina
Sounds like america
This will be on life time movie channel after the case goes to court
@@faithmason9562 you paint with such a broad stroke ;-)
@@lbrown7164 I take no pleasure in it. It is sad.
You have felons in your family too
FYI - BOTH SONS were also involved in 2 friends' deaths. Allegedly. Wtf is up with this family?!?!
Sounds like demonic influence they let in. Spiritual warfare is real. Narcissism and anti social personality disorders are IMO generational curses for some heinous crimes that people generations ago did.
WTF is up with the legal system giving Alex and his sons preferential treatment? That is my question. The rich, well-connected, and/or powerful need to receive the same treatment as the average person. What a mess our justice system is.
Dad Thought he could get away with anything obviously
Speculation at this point
Bad seeds. Right through the generations
A true narcissist. Prayers for the victims of this man.
@@damien1781 nah bro prayers heal everything.. even death
@@damien1781 he has a surviving son, he is a victim too. Use your brain.
@@damien1781 Trolling in every single thread in this story. No job, no life.
@@nothere5250 who doesn't have a job wtf? How do you people make outrageous comments like this? I just bought a new house, you need a job for that.
He should join Donald Trump, a narcissist as well
The arrogance this guy has to think that he can get away with it by blaming it on his opioid addiction
I don't think he is an addict. I think he used that as an excuse to not have to go to prison after failing to hire a proper hitman.
he's a lawyer, he is well aware that drugs do not shield someone from prosecution and conviction
@Patrick Dolan yes, and being a lawyer he also knows how unsuccessful it would be if positing an addiction as an alleged mitigating circumstance. point being, bringing up drug use was not for the purpose of "getting away with it"
Set him free since he has opioid addiction
He's not an addict. It's more disgusting that he would make up his lie of being addicted to gain sympathy.
He killed his father,wife,son and the housekeeper but his own murder was not completed. Sure you're right. Why are they wasting time giving him the benefit of a doubt. Surely someone in South Carolina knows how to do their job and prosecute this serial killer.
why are they giving him the benefit of the doubt? due process. a cornerstone of the fragile legal process.
@@jusletursoulglobaby Thanks guy
He's only been convicted of killing wife and son. No other murder charges at this point.
It’s crazy how happy they look in the photos. You never really know what people are going through.
They weren't unhappy. They were evil to the core and enjoyed all their murders and stealing.
As Columbo would say, "Just one more thing..."
yikes! what is that they always say about murder…following the money
How and why Alex hasn’t been the prime suspect all along is almost incomprehensible.
Money
Oh he has been a suspect this whole time lol, you're fooling yourself if you think differently.
Yes money and bribes
How can he steal money from lady that helped him raise his own kids! Now you trying to cheat her kids! 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
A cold heart!
🕵️♂️ - The Husband did it ! 👍 👌
He got the maid and his dad too apparently...
@@ishab745 the maid died 😂
Aren't they the usual suspect?
NO!!??!?
Of course he did it, and all for money! 😕
Another corrupt lawyer , I'm sooo shocked 🤐🥴☹️😬
Since when can you etch-a-sketch a will and have it be legit?
My word, this family's entire story is Southern Gothic on steroids! It just never ends!
so satisfying to see the rich, and well connected fall from grace to less than nothing
@Patrick Dolan Yes, she does.
@Patrick Dolan not wealthy. Corrupt
In this case but not all rich people are bad people. Many do a lot of good things for their community and country. He was actually broke just keeping up appearances.
The law needs to change, how does a lawyer have the ability to get paid for your pain and mental anguish and not give you the money and nobody listens to you and he gets away with it? How was that possible in the United States of america? How is it possible that I hire a lawyer go to court he wins my case how is it that I don't get paid immediately? And how is it that I'm sure she told everybody what happened to her and that this lawyer didn't want to give her her money and how is it that he can get away with that? And this isn't the only case I've heard this from I've heard this dozens and dozens of times throughout my life people not being able to get their money from their lawyer when their lawyer wins the case. It's as if he dictates when and where to give you the money. Why? Shouldn't there be some kind of law or stipulation that says the lawyer has a certain amount of time to give you your money? Everything is so backwards because of cronies and evil people trying to get away with bullcrap like this.
There must be some way around this...right?
@@shaleamontanez4591 this is just one example, just how the Mafia goes around laws to get away with things so do white rich people that use words the average person doesn't even understand to get away with things in Congress and in laws. What I'm talking about they have been already doing before I was born. It takes a whole life time to undo what they've done. It takes a NEO to emerge from a single generation then he needs to spend his life educating others to follow. It's a spiritual battle that the average person doesn't understand. It takes life times to make changes like this. Imagine if everyone dedicated they're life to one thing? Imagine the impact that would make on the world. Right now you have people wasting their whole life doing absolutely nothing.
GREEDY
It's called wealthy white male politics, nepotism, covering for each other, and letting white make friends literally get away with murder!!!
The future Forensic Files episode on this dumpster fire of a family will surely be a hit.
And I will be there to watch the episode while I work 😂😂😂
I love how this guy thinks the signature is legit. Just get to the point where they find enough evidence to charge Alex with the murder of his wife, son, & maid.
What a monster!
What an absolute disgrace to human beings everywhere
Jail is a great diet , his whole belly is gone !
🤣🤣🤣
Withdrawal
Tripped over the dogs? Was "ran into the doorknob" unavailable?
What a POS of a man for killing his wife, and son! 😕
What a coincidense, Alex has big debts, he's is the beneciary of his wife's will and his father fixed the front of the will and Maggie gets murdered and his father dies. Wow, what an amazing coincidense.
HURRY UP & PUT HIM AWAY, WHY DRAG THIS ON...
I always thought he was responsible for his wife and son's murder somehow
I would investigate HIM for murdering his housekeeper, wife, and son. His staged failed suicide was just that STAGED.
So what does his oldest son say about the whole Murdaugh family dynamics ???
Go ask him.
He has not been interviewed.
He says where is my payout oh and ya I cheated in law school don't imake you proud daddy dearest
@@chantellegattrell7073 yep they are all disgusting
I wouldn't be surprised if something else comes up.
Who could of thought that lawyers could be so evil?
This man is involved in all three deaths.
When I first heard of this case I knew the husband did this. He had evilness in his eyes.
Just look into his dark eyes....that will tell you something! This is a very sad and horrific case!!
“Tripped over the family’s dogs…” Suurrrreeee 🙄
I love seeing these "privilege" stories. What person can ride free of at least a True deep investigation into all this death surrounding one person? A rich, sorry but white male. Sounds like he should of been behind bars at least 4 years ago. So much death since then is so sad and law enforcement including the judge in this jurisdiction should be investigated and held accountable immediately.
This is why fox won’t cover it. Cause blacks will turn it into a race circus
this is literally the most insane story ever
It is really weird a woman would leave her estate to her husband...
Especially when she has children
@@mrsmibbs I'm sure she had a living trust which would make your statement null and void. She comes from wealth and her husband is a lawyer. That's one of the main ways to protect wealth. Most women with children leave their estate to their children, not their spouse. It's a mother's instinct to want her children to be taken care of in her absence.
There was no question of her leaving it to her husband, just that her sister was was the executor originally and then that was changed to being her pretty old and ill father. Also, a lot of murky dealings with the husband which would draw attention to the changes in the will.
@@ashe4158 Yes! And that’s Exactly what Should be done and they are also protected from inheritance tax❤️
@@ashe4158 actually most trusts will still leave majority of assets to surviving spouse and then upon the last to die, it goes to the kids, especially if both are parents of the children. Now in a 2nd marriage, the parent will usually have it left more often to his/her own children first.
Can you imagine if this long history of this family's law affiliation was audited
Too many deaths surrounding this man. More investigating needs to be done.
What a mess.
My questions: 1) When will the movie come out and 2) Who will play Murdock? Will Ferrell in a serious role?
Mark can be the lead investigator..,I love them together.
@@tinawindham6958 😂😂
Even IF he's found not guilty, the financial crimes will put him away for essentially life anyway.
Money is the root of all evil
Experience from my families and friends
Even my son
Sorry, kiddo, but the phrase you are groping for is: "The LOVE of money...."
Money, in and of itself, doesn't do anything! Not in one way or the other! It is only People who make money seem evil.
And so, it is, 'The LOVE OF MONEY', that is the problem! Money can't do anything by itself! Neither good nor bad. It is the people who are the problem! (As usual!)
Comment below is correct. "The LOVE of money is the root of all evil.." Money is static; it is a form of currency-just like beads or fur or shells!
The son's death is unbelievably sad. Imagine the moment his son was shot and what his son might have saw
When his son ⚰ that beautiful, innocent teenager by recklace drunk driving...and used his family's clout to get off.... I lost sympathy for him. That whole family line is trash. Even the granddaddy and great granddaddy.
That son killed someone himself. No worries 😌
The house keeper is just sad 😞 tripped over dogs , ?
What about the girl he killed while drunk
Son was basically a serial killer. Mallory & the housekeeper/nanny. Who knows how many others.
Some parts of this is hilarious on especially on how this was planned and so poorly executed well he is gonna love the house special:don't drop the soap
What a crook, he had motive, he was at crime scene, and had other problems taken care of with their deaths
Every criminal who goes to court has an opiod addiction now. 🙄
Really? The opiate addiction is to blame? Gotta throw the B.S flag on the field with this one.
This shows how corrupt our agency is who should be protecting their citizens
I've heard of blaming a dog for missing homework or a broken lamp, but murder...
He shouldn't be involved in the wills at all since its believe to be responsible.
That dude is sick!
He killed them all !!!!
Another family completely and utterly destroyed because of the Sackler family's actions. Sad
Alex Murdaugh is an evil person who may have used drugs but Alex Murdaugh is solely responsible for the current outcome of his life. Who killed his wife and son?
@@tja3495 Ya, he has way problems than just drugs.
NO, side effects of opioids are not murderous schemes.
THE SACKLER'S WERE NO PLACE IN SIGHT. GET REAL.
@@anntyler1091 I saw them right there in the courtroom, the defense attorney brought them up specifically. Were you not watching the same video as me?
"Millions of dollars owed to family housekeeper." I'm in the wrong business I see. Housekeeping is where the BIG money is at.
Millions owed to housekeeper's family. They were supposed to get a settlement from his insurance because she allegedly died in a slip and fall accident at Murdaugh's house. He somehow received the settlement himself and kept it, instead of giving it to her family.
Don't quit your day job. She didn't earn "millions"; the money was to be from an insurance policy.
The news reporter states it in a confusing way, he says the 'millions of dollars is owed to his family's housekeeper, she died in 2018.' I was so confused as to how the housekeeper could be owed so much money and then die in an accident in this man's home.
You may not live to enjoy it.
As soon as I heard he worked for a law firm, you can sense corruption.
Naming the surviving spouse as sole primary beneficiary is typical with married couples. Alex still killed them (most likely) but being in the will is typical.
But it's wierd she put her husbands farther in will crossing out her own sister. He was an elderly man with a long-term illness. No one would put someone elderly than them and frankly on deathbed on their will. He is not even a blood relative.
@@dryb3301 obviously
Well she was separated from him when she was murdered and going to divorce him so I’m pretty sure she wasn’t going to have him on her will.
@@dryb3301 yep everything this guy touches is a corrupt scam.
Culpability, accountabililty, and penalization warranted!
He Was Just MURDERING Everybody 🤔🤫
Piece of advice to all would be killers of wife/husbands, don't ever change the will, karma's a B@#$h!🤣👍
What a tangle web we weave when we practice to deceive!!!☝️☝️🙄🙄🙄
The bizarreness surrounding the murdaugh’s just never ends. You can’t get this many turns and twists in any Hollywood production out there
It all boils down to money & greed, that’s why he’s under the jail !
I think he murdered his family and the house cleaner. It all started with the house cleaner. He killed her for will money and then was running out of money and killed his wife and son in a rage. Then when the doors started closing in he tried to stage his own death. But failed so now it’s all looking really bad.
I knew he had the perfect opportunity to make it look like his son had enemies.
This whole story is weird and confusing 😵💫
he killed his father wife and son and the housekeeper this is a whole mess!
What a vile, greedy human being 🤬
All greed! Horrible people out there
They will be making movies on these baffling and interesting list of cases
Geez, this is the worst kind of nightmare. The most unfathomable ... kind of nightmare.
Yet he was still good enough to concoct all the fraud he is being charged with, even though he is blaming opioids for it, while he was on opioids the whole time. A withdrawal might be the reason his wife and child died. The hit man sounds like a desperate attempt. Any lawyer would know changing a will like that would not hold up in court at least without witnesses. Convicte him for just being stupid☠ maybe prison is keeping him alive, because he owes someone with connections, if you know what I mean. Mafia or drug cartel anyone
That's a lot of fameily and acquaintance murders/suspicious deaths tied to one man.
Of course, just what we all need is someone blaming their vial actions on opioids. I’m a chronic pain warrior and this just break my heart
Of you weren't a sympathetic pain patient, I'd say: *vile.
BUT...you are, and I'm sorry for that, so...xxx
@@ktcooki276I understand you were trying to correct that person's spelling of the word vile. However, what does your additional statement "of you weren't a sympathetic pain patient " mean???
This man is pure evil.
Do you really think he got away with all of this on his own? The powerful that allowed him to do this are still in power.
This guy had more privilege and money than any of us will & it still wasn’t enough.
so true, because he was greedy
Always look at who is the beneficiary of a will, there you will find your suspect.
The Murdaughs have made stooges of the ridiculous hayseeds surrounding them. Too funny.
I am not educated enough about estate planning for the wealthy but I would assume hand written corrections to wills would be reprinted and incorrect copies destroyed. Mainly to avoid such situations.
What a mess this family was
Wow this family really embodies that old cliche of the apple tree with the apple not falling far from the tree.
They should pay off all the victims straight out
I don’t believe anything he is claiming. He is quilts as homemade sin.
guilty, not quilts.
He’s sick. Crazy😡
So many sudden deaths?
Greed greed greed.....the root of all this evil.
How Insane
Four murders he's personally connected to (committed) how many more? 😳
Money truly is the root of all evil!....
Why would a millionaire cross out a name on their Will instead of getting it redone? 🤔
disgusting what greed does.
Smh!!!! It’s always the ones you never suspect to do wrong. That’s crazy! Should we now be aware of who we trust or rely on our life o. With these people. That’s crazy like you know the law but still screw up like doing criminal backgrounds doesn’t get checked before getting hired for law.
That will should not have been honored with someones name crossed off and another added like it was!
THIS GUY MURDER EVEN THE HOUSEKEEPER ??? WTH
