- SLED Special Agent Peter Rudofski showed OnStar and cell data that Alex Murdaugh's SUV slowed down on the night of the killings in the same area where Maggie's phone was later found. Murdaugh is accused of killing his wife Maggie and their adult son Paul in June of 2021.

Wow Paul's phone had only 2% battery remaining when he made the Snapchat video. Lucky his phone didn't die
Praise God.
It was like Paul was speaking from the grave, rest in peace Paul.
Lucky he did though after what he did to poor young beautiful Beach
Another of gods gifts. You just can't go around treating ppl like this, it was time for him to fall from his own grace.
Man technology is a beast...!!!!! If you commit a crime you'd better be walking with no phone🤣🤣🤣
How does anyone believe they can kill, steal and commit other crimes with todaystechnologies. Impossible and 99% of people know this. The world is getting to be a better place all the time while swiftly removing stupid criminals
With all the years of practicing law and how successful AM has been, I am shocked that he wasn’t more aware of the data from phone extraction can be to track his phone and movements along with data from his vehicle. (Along with Maggie’s and Paul’s phone) His every move is documented along with time frames. How can such an experienced lawyer be so naive regarding technology? He doesn’t appear to be as bright as his success demonstrates. I think he way under estimated the lengths law enforcement has gone to to prove he his guilty. Perhaps he assumed he would never be suspected to this degree due to his family’s history over the years?
Good ole boys like AM dont necessarily have to be smart to make it in the south. They grow up with a lifetime of favors and connections. I live in a city full of them.
@@kccain4011 exactly!
He was stoned not making clear decisions. Obviously
In several interviews he told leo to pull the on star data like this would prove his innocence. Fool
He's a typical American project! Folks who were privileged typically aren't that bright. Look at Trump, the Kennedys & Ralph Lauren's children.
He asked Maggie and Paul to come to the house to see his dad, why is no one asking why .....if he didn't murder them.....why didn't she go with him? That's the reason she and Paul were there!!!!
I think your concerns have been well addressed. If the prosecutor "asked why" the defense would object "leading the witness your honor" and the judge: "don't lead the witness", So my point is: the jury sees this as clearly as you, I and everyone else.
That’s what I wondered!
And when he calls her to find out where she is before he leaves for his dad he lets it ring for 3 seconds. He really gave her a chance to pick up, NOT
And then he went to see his mom, not his dad, which I thought was his reasoning behind having Maggie go with him in the first place. He doesn't even mention going to visit his dad in the aftermath. His story is full of holes.
@@barbarachieppo9603 right I meant his mom thanks you barbs
Today I learned if you want to commit a crime, it’d be best to leave your phone at the house.
And walk
Right! And also your car. 😳
Leave your truck at the house also.
Darkness, a silenced 22 rifle, and a bicycle, and NO CELLPHONES and detailed preparations that avoids leaving ANY electronic traces such as a history of googling how to drown your wife or using your credit card for anything.
the friend of Gabby Petito was smart (but I doubt it was premediated murder, he snapped). They were in the desert, he drove home, told no one she was even missing, won 2 weeks time, and did not talk to the police and also not with her family before that. At All. - There was another man that planned to kill his wife (she wanted to leave, he was violent). During the night in winter he drove with the children to a national park (I think in Utah).
Boys were small (oldest 3 - 4 years) Mommy was in the car "sleeping". Then the man claimed that the wife had vanished (in the desert) and he had returned home with the kids. Her body was never found, police interviewed the oldest boy but he was coached and visibly stressed if they talked about his mother (Mommy is with the stars). He could not testify.
The man was not charged. Grandparents could not prevent him from having visitations, although they were supervised. Kinda. A social worker brought the kids to his house and handed them over (that was 1 or 2 years after the mother had vanished, they were raised by the parents of the mother). Then the social worker saw a fire in the house and called 911. I think he killed the kids and set the house on fire. All 3 dead. "Father" took his own life.
if there had been any doubt whether he had killed his wife .... (I seem to remember that his family acted for the longes time as if he was innocent).
Genius to condense the data into a color coded timeline so it’s easier to digest. Excellent!
😁
Yes! It shows Alex is innocent. Who was turning Maggie's backlight on and off while Alex wasn't there? Maggie and Paul are "the only ones there" and they were dead. So, please explain this. How could her iPhone light be on for over 10 minutes and when Alex wasn't there to turn it on and it turn itself off before Alex arrives? That one single piece of evidence alone shows Alex couldn't have been the murderer. Plain and simple. The light may come on and off when a call is coming in, but it doesn't stay on for 10 MINUTES! But, don't look at that Jury. Look over here at the bags of pills. Distraction at it's finest. Prosecutor should be jailed for intentionally misleading the jury of the facts.
@@amerikanviking Proves nothing. You just choose to ignore what doesn't support your view.
@@amerikanviking nah
@@Seeker0fTruth Ain't much if a "Truth Seeker" if you missed that, are you?
Based on this I think this is the nail in AM coffin. This is probably the most damning evidence I’ve heard so far, and by the look on the faces of those sat at the defence table they know it too. Notice there’s no forced crying from AM during this testimony.
He should be ashamed of himself
I think, since he is sober now, he most likely is horrified by the things he has done to the people he says he loves/loved. I pray some kind of good can come out of all this. I’d love to see A.M. truly working the 12 steps and sharing his insight and experience with addiction with others. If nothing else, he could help other prisoners who have done horrible crimes while caught in the grip of addiction. He may not be able to win his appeal(s), but he can still make his life count for something positive. But, only through God and working “the steps”. Are you a friend of Bob?
Sitting
Nope, no forced fake crying because he knows, he's been had! If he still thought he was getting away with it, he would have turned on the fake tears to make it look as good as possible! Manipulative ass!
The look on AM's face (when the lawyer talks about MM's phone at 8:55pm phone locked/orientation) speaks volumes.
Too bad you can't add that section here
@@jao62223 huh? 🤔
Time stamp?
Thank you Paul for solving your crime scene. Your mom would be so proud of you! Vile family to say the least.
Thanks for murdering that young Woman Drunk as hell driving a Boat.
@@silkcustoms520 you are correct, too! Since he’s dead, his father deserves to be in prison for life!
How does the video implement him?
I understand Paul committed a crime and killed someone’s but I don’t believe in the death penalty as Only God can give life and take it away. Paul could have served time and had a second chance being so young. I didn’t hate him like some people did the Murdaugh murders doc really helped me see a lot about him. It was a very sad And tragic and preventable situation but oh well. I don’t think he deserved to die.
The Detective she called him 🙏🏻
By many accounts, Paul is depicted as having mental and emotionl problems. He looks so young, humble, sad and conflicted in all of his photographs. It is as though Alex was trying to indicate that he was rather simple-minded. Alex is portrayed as being brilliant. The bible says that the Lord uses the simple to confound the wise. The last thing little Paul did on this earth was a more astounding and amazing genius than anything Alex ever did in his entire life; he chronicaled the on his phone, the activities of his killer. God rest his soul.
He slowed down so he could toss it out of his SUV.
Woah there, we got Sherlock Holmes here 🤣
@@tbmddright! I could say he slowed due to UFO. Doesn't make anything true
@@tbmdd you feel better now?
and a pair of murderous strangers would NOT need to slow down, the passenger would just open the car window and throw it (or if they are smart dispose in another manner of it). - two weapons were used. if Alex wanted to dupe police intentionally using two weapons would be a little more impractical but doable. IF the shootings were done by outsiders the 2 weapons would strongly point to at least 2 criminals. Why would a lone killer try such a deception ...
Which also strongly suggests that the phone of Maggie was not thrown away by 2 (or more) murderous strangers.
And it didn't take long for police to find it. Excellent work. Its like this whole case just fell together seamlessly. It was time for his new home, he deserves it!
He did the same thing with knife he tossed across the road when he was finished slashing his own tire in order for cousin Eddy to come shot him in the head but not kill him just stall the investigation so he could gather some money to try and pay off as much of the money he stole from the law firm, friends and family, Alex was angry that he was going to have pay for Paul's drunken escaped killing a young ladies who was suing for more than a million dollars if Paul was dead he wouldn't have to go to trial or pay them such a large amount of money, and Maggie had found Alex stash of pills in his computer case and new he didn't have a drug addiction he was trafficking narcotics but didn't want trafficking charges so he claimed he had an addiction so he would be charged with POSSESSION instead of TRAFFICKING NARCOTICS which is a Federal offence with a substantial prison sentence.
🎯🎯🎯 I never thought about the fact that AM could be trafficking drugs!! 😮crazyyyyyy
I wondered the same.. Trafficking!
This idiot was NOT a narcotics trafficker. Major drug dealers who are also wealthy lawyers don’t need to steal millions of dollars. He would get eaten alive in the criminal underworld.
Exactly correct
@@claymac7895 nah I kind of think he was a drug dealer. you can’t do millions of dollars worth of opioids…he would be dead
73 calls that Alex deleted on one day, June 7.
I wasn't sure why he was calling people and then deleting the calls. I thought he was creating an alibi but I guess not.
@@mrs6shuler Those calls or texs will be stored at the provider anyway and he should know that. It hink he is guilty - but deleting in itself does not point to guilt.
More evidence he thought he had deleted.
"Less than 20 seconds."
Court's camera cuts to Alex's face and his demonic look.
Favorite moment of the trial.
Where is that at in the video?
@@mexxicokitty 1:24. 35seconds
You couldn't have missed that if you tried.
There is no other look for him.
That digital footprint evidence !🔨⚰
Now I understand why AM deleted the messages between 9 & 10pm… as he was talking to the detective during that first interview in the car after the murders, he was using the text log as he explained his activity to the detective. You hear where he says he texted at 9:08 to “tell” Maggie he was leaving; then he says “I texted her at 9:47 when I was leaving to head home.” Then you see a look on his face like a deer caught in the headlights! He pauses, then opens the door and spits 5-6 times ~ likely buying time to think ~ but he realized his math was off! His text messages showed he was at his mom’s only about 20-mins, with an approx 20 min drive there and back, totaling that approx hour he was gone. He then obviously forgot he told the detective these times, as in subsequent interviews he indicated being at his moms 30-40 mins, and I think some where I heard him say “about an hour.” Really interested in seeing how things unfold this week in court!
I don't understand what you mean. Why did he delete them? What time was the 911 call made? I'm just not understanding how it doesn't line up and how he was caught in a lie. But for the record I'm not a Alex defender but actually one that's on the guilty as sin side?
Originally he was making all those calls on his drive to Almeda to add to his alibi. But once he started providing that data with “times of his activity,” he realized that he told cops and detectives on that first night that he was AT his mom’s house about 30-40 mins, but he realized that the times he actually sent text messages to Maggie saying hey babe I’m going, and then hey babe I’m coming home ~ was only 20 mins. He couldn’t do the math fast enough BUT SUDDENLY REALIZED WHILE IN THE MIDST OF THAT FIRST INTERVIEW IN THE CAR ~ his times weren’t adding up, so he realized it was best to “delete” all record of phone calls made that night so detectives wouldn’t have a time stamped trail. He obviously didn’t know the depth and intricacies of all the savvy technology tools that were presented Friday in court. And whether you believe guilty or not guilty would be YOUR right, so I take this forum as a platform for free speech… though I certainly believe the evidence scales are tipping a particular direction! And for the record ~ if my opinion really counted and had any weight, the scale would definitely tilt ~ guilty.
Have you notice in the 2nd police interview on 6/10 that Alex says he used a rifle scope that night? It’s at 34:09 in. He’s talking about how Paul was always rigging parts on guns - like his 308 (which is a sniper rifle) . He says the “little light I used THAT NIGHT” Why would Alex be using a rifle scope “that night”. Why hasn’t the prosecution mentioned THAT comment?
He sure did admit that He said it in 2 police interviews.
@@ThirstyKaren YES!!! Finally? Someone else noticed that slip too.
Many of us will go our entire lives and never have the thought of taking another human begins life, This man had a kind of half ass plan. While he was a lawyer... I don't think he did anything with criminal law that much. He was smart enough to leave his phone at the house when all of this was going on. But he was clearly panicked once the gun fire was over, if he weren't he never would have touched or take Miss Maggie's phone, or moved Paul's. She was shot in the back of the head at close range by a high powered rifle, yet it appears that he tried to get her phone to recognize her face so that it would open for him. Why? Only he knows, but he should have remembered that that bullett went through her brain in an instant and severely damaged her face. It was a fools errand to even touch it, hers or Pauls, but he did. Then to compound his panic he took her phone with him, only to slow down and throw it out the window, never giving a thought to all of the data that the on star system was collecting on his vehicles movement. He though that for some reason that people would believe him and feel sorry for him over losing his wife and son, and the jury may yet. But there is just too much data and information to not believe that he took their lives. I said earlier that he had a plan, but even half ass does not accurately describe it. It screames "I DID IT ". When there is a murder of family members in a husband and wife situation, the surviving spouse is always the first suspect. He knew that he had destroyed a huge part of his families legacy, he had little if any compunction about killing his son and wife. The way he taunted her, shooting her repeatedly, and the same with his son. He was angry at Paul for something. Maybe it was the boat accident which when the other people wanted to sue Alex and Paul, meant Alex had disclose his financial information and the whole house of financial cards started to fall. Maggie refused to let him use her beach house as collateral for a loan, she had move out. Maybe that was why he might have been angry at her... Lord who knows. Its just ugly. It will haunt me knowing that Paul looked in to his fathers face after he was shot the first time, and it saddens me to know that Maggie was not even 10 yards away when she heard the first shot and probably saw the second one....Watching the father on her son kill her son. Knowing, knowing that she would not survive this night. Ugly and heartbreaking.
Oh my, I never thought of him trying to get the phone's facial recognition of Maggie after shooting her. 😱 ...horrible
Agreed. I will never understand his, or the killer of Shannon and her daughters’ motive. It takes so much to be able to take away a life, it would take even more to take someone’s as close as a spouse and your child. Chilling.
They probably confronted Alex about finding pain pills. Possibly took them. Alex said " he was scared when questioned because he had pain pills in his pocket" could be connected. I don't know what or if to believe anything Alex says though. But this might be an honest statement about having them. Maybe he took them back from either Paul or Maggie. It's kinda sad Maggie had Paul being a little detective - that's extremely dangerous.
I’m sure her face was covered in something) blood and dirt) and it was really dark, her eyes probably were closed…
My phone will not open for me if I have really dark shades on. I have to lift them up to unlock my phone.
Alex knew Maggie’s phone passcode. When they recovered it his brother asked Alex what the code was and brother and law enforcement were able to get in. Maybe he was distraught after killings and tried to use facial recognition. Idk but seems he did know the passcode.
His attorney always looks like he’s bored and sleepy.. time for retirement looks like.
😂 I THOUGHT THE SAME!
He really wants to throw up his papers and say “Alex, confess already!”
No, that is just his tactic to show everyone that he is not invested or interested in what the prosecution is saying. The defense are a table of bullies.
@@Jan-zv7ze This is TRUE!
I look back at when; the guy (defense) that cross examined Mr. Tinsley, was getting agitated with him, when Mr. Tinsley was only trying to have an intelligent discussion with him.. It’s apparent they didn’t like him, before taking the stand, because Mark Tinsley, the lawyer who represented the family of Mallory Beach. This is also the time, when Buster was biting his “middle finger”.. that was meant for Mr. T.. It’s evident that, the Murdaugh’s are bullies, and used their wealth & privilege to get what they want!
It’s sad, because starting with Alec, he raised two sons, to also think they are above the law. He set the standard for his kids to accept no accountability! Bottom line, he also set his boys up for failure.. I’m sure - Mr. NARCISSIST, never thought he’d get caught and be in this situation! This is how your create your offspring to be narcissists, especially if you’re raised by one!
I listened to the 911 recording when the housekeeper got hurt.. Paul (a rude teenager at that) is asking the 911 operator: “Why are you asking all these questions”? - He was rude, and almost annoyed that the 911 operator was doing her job! So disrespectful! Then, Alec stole millions from the housekeeper’s children! Birds of a feather, flock together! 😒 it’s disgusting!
He could have hired a better defense lawyer, but maybe he was court appointed. Not sure if he access to money and since he killed his wife, she's become unhelpful to him.
Impossible to swallow that he got out the car, checked both their pulses, pulled out Paul's phone in 20 seconds, and had no blood on his hands after checking for a pulse on blood covered bodies
I think he changed his wording to say he checked them after he call 911 but either way, to have not a drop off blood on him after he "checked them both several times"? I don't get it.
@@kathycamasso6672 Leads one to think he'd cleaned up and changed clothes.
They say he hosed himself down very well. But that jacket of his had gun powder on it, another mistake to seal his prison stay.
Cell phones-- Incriminating murderers for years!
I say cell phones, bank cards,banking transactions,street cameras, and DNA,,,catch you when they can.
I really don't think the technology was created for this. It has multi uses. Who knew?
7:21 Maggie is using “find my phone”? Interesting….paying attention to the time Alex slowed down to chuck it!
I think she was still in “possession” of her phone at 7:21 now…obviously, if she was using ‘find my phone”. Unless…Alex was using “find my phone” to see where it was thrown out when he was leaving Moselle, thus the slow down driving by, to see where it landed by way of the backlight activation.
Amazing timeline. Only the most recent systems are this precise I believe. I've seen countless trials, but never data this precise! All of this just a year earlier or older devices would have resulted in far less exact data. Alex must have been very surprised. So in a way he is getting punished for having the most recent, most expensive, overall best available system with best connectivity between car and phone at the time. Isn't that priceless :)
Poetic justice
He seems like the kind of guy who only wanted the best of everything. Well, he got it. What a blooming idiot this guy is.
I think the prosecutor did an exceptional job putting this all together! Without him this may not have happened. Apparently he doesn't know much about his own iphone. Technology worked perfectly!
Oh Alex looks Mad his jar is tight...!
That is a rap! Alex got rid of the guns and changed his clothes
Same place his murder clothes are.

He was trying to eliminate any threat to people digging in his financial scams and I believe he had to eliminate both of them to attempt to cover any loose ends or someone having some sort of power over him. He is a narcissist and truly didn't care about anyone but himself. Sick
I think when a narcissist is pushed into the corner if they really feel threatened I believe they would kill their family members to get out of there dilemma

@@matthewalkman386 it’s the word used bc it’s true about the person she’s referring to. If ur bothered by that word, maybe u should reflect on why. Hit dog will holler.
Add to that, drugged to the ears. And apparently Maggie and Paul were trying to get him to quit.
@@matthewalkman386 yes it's very fashionable, used so often it's become meaningless. Sick of it. The word actually comes from ancient Greek mythology, based on the name of a young man called Narcissus, who was so very handsome he was totally in love with himself, and spent his time gazing at his reflection in the river water. Don't know how he ended though.
The timelines and movement that they put together is kind of scary.
I agree. But am personally torn between your point and the fact that without this technology "am" (lower case on purpose) might go unpunished for his doings. Intriguing thought, got me thinking.
@@hlcorick I think he’ll be convicted. Thank god he defense was stupid and asked a question that would lead to the roadside shooting being brought up, now the jury knows about that too.

If you are currently or thinking of having an affair, I would buy an old Cadillac El Dorado or a tandem bicycle.

Or his sons, they were taught by him
he's screwed after this
Michael: “ your saying the murderers name is Murdaugh?”
Dwight: “maybe that’s why he became a murderer”
Very underrated comment.
Nice
He really had no choice, he'd been a criminal for years, just hadn't been caught yet.
Maggie’s phone was at her location , Alex’s takes her phone , throws it out of the suburban someways as leaving the scene in his suburban , his vehicle has onstar showing his complete activity , the overlap of his phone activity is him setting his alibi , a trip to see his mother in care at another location late in the night , a visit that the caregiver testified was very odd . Alex had this as his planned Alibi . Cold Blooded calculated killer
A very bad alibi, who uses an alibi of an elderly women with alzheimers. I don't think a judge would have even put her on the stand. Not verifable!
Imagine if OJ Simpson had a GPS equipped cellphone!
Yes, he'd be in prison right now
Location tracking only trips up the dumb perps. As a lawyer, you would think he would have known something about it.
Amazing, no perfect crime even for a wealthy lawyer
Can you imagine. if 'am' did this to his-self, he could represent me for a parking violation and I might get 15 to 20 years in the pen.
if NASA couldn't find a monkey to send to space they would turn down 'am' as a candidate.
Proves he's a dumb perp!!
He's been privileged all of his life and used to getting away with things...getting what he wants.
@@hlcorick 😅
I wish that they had gone back further in the day. I'd love to know when his law office called to confront him and when he called Maggie to come home.
It seems like all of his crimes came down on him at once, perfect!
i dont know how this man can not be guilty!!!!
He is very very guilty. The prosecution proved that he was guilty several times. I can't believe he still claims he's innocent!liar and killer of life.
It’s truly a God thing that Paul’s phone lasted as long as it did. It’s battery was very low early in the evening. However, it lasted long enough to record the kennel video and for Paul to solve his own murder. God is good ✝️🙏
I am ecstatic that the prosecuting attorney was able to explain exactly how it all went down. Well his voice on his sons phone verified thru several witnesses is where it all started to go bad. He didn't know about. Thank God for that!
Yeah, Did Alex sound like a Murderer, No Did he seem agitated, State needed a murderer so they made one out of Alex, I know he lied & stoled but I feel like He's innocent
If this isn’t the nail in his coffin, I’m gonna sound like angry grandpa hearing the Casey Anthony verdict
PURE EVIL! 👿
When I was a Padawan prosecutor fresh out of law school, and just starting to do trials, my mentor prosecutors trained me to always try catching the defendant in his past telling a lie, no matter how trivial or insignificant. The reason: so on closing argument I can point to the defendant and call him/her a liar, finished with words to the effect: "if he lied about that, he's lying about this." When it comes to this evildoer OMFG, Alex's el grande-sized liar's cup runneth over.
Indeed, in this trial we got to see the skilled prosecutor setting up the defendant for when he's doing his closing. That's what last week's Q & A with the defendant was all about, where the skilled prosecutor went over a looooooooooooong victims list of people Murdaugh lied to. (And what a list that is. The victims looking like they were from central casting, a call for the most sympathetic characters they have.)
"Murdaugh is a serial liar" will be the centerpiece of the prosecutor's closing argument.
Bonus Comment: The lie that will do him in: Murdaugh saying he hadn't seen his family just before the killings, that statement proven a lie by Paul's time-stamped cell phone video recording, where Alex's voice was in the background, his talking to Bubba the dog; a video that Alex either forgot that Paul had made it, or he didn't know that Paul had made the recording. I suspect it is the latter because if he had known about or remembered it, Alex would have got rid of Paul's cell phone.
IMO that was the "GOTCHA!" moment of the trial. It obliterated a principal component of Alex's alibi. Technology nails evildoers every time.
Look for the prosecutor on closing to argue these points with loud finger-pointing emphasis.
I forsee this being a hung jury.
@@superdragUSA1 def not going to be a hung jury….he’s completely cooked. Especially with all the national media attention. Zero chance this dude gets off. He would be the white OJ Simpson. If technology would have been better back then and police wouldn’t have royally f-ed that case up, they would both be in jail for life.
Where’s the video clip from Paul’s phone.
Thank you for sharing your valuable and professional perspective; I always love reading the posts from the people who work in the profession (or have worked as in your case). It’s interesting bc I’m watching this video AFTER the trial and I’ve seen the closing argument: you nailed it!!!
It’s a sad case.
@@superdragUSA1 Want to put $100 on that? Oh wait, the verdict came in last week. Never mind.
If your gonna commit a crime today, you cant have a cell phone.
And don't have the kick ass prosecuterbthat was able to very easily prove his guilt.
Is Rohan Gibson scheduled to testify? Why so many calls to him but then he deleted every single call to him from his call log?! He calls him right after he murders his son and wife, then the same guy texts Paul right after getting off the phone w Alex? And then there’s an auto lock on Paul’s phone? Did Alex call him to text paul so that alex could open his phone and read the text? Is this one of the reasons why he was so nervous about LE getting into Paul’s phone? This all insane but just proves how much this monster has lied !!
Rogan Gibson was who Paul was making the video for. It occurred to Alex to get that video, delete it, and make some sort deal or do to Rogan like he did to the ladies of the house.....convince him of something not true. He was going to delete that video, but Paul's phone was dead and he couldn't do it. He figured that no one would pay attention to that video anyway. He's a Murdaugh.
@@getmesomefries you’re absolutely right!!! Now it makes sense!!!
These prosecuting attorneys would be a lot more effective if they helped the jury interpret the facts rather then just going through them. For example, once Miss Maggie was murdered there was an orientation change reported on her device. The prosecutor should be asking the witness "What type of body movement could cause an orientation change of a person who had their phone on their body? Could falling down cause an orientation change? Or would it have been caused by someone else handling the phone?" The prosecution is leaving way too much to the jury to interpret when they should be doing it for them... or at least helping them interpret the facts. Maybe they'll clean this all up in closing statements but if I was on this jury I'd be feeling a little overwhelmed.
Overwhelmed is the right word for this. I found the pathologist difficult to follow (maybe it’s clearer to the jury etc who can see the crime scene photos ?). Anyway, it’s a LOT of info, and a LOT of excessive detail & discussion introducing some of the witnesses, and throughout their testimony. I was half expecting to find out what their favorite color was, or the name their 10th grade history teacher 🥱. Almost seemed as if intended to further exhaust the jury, perhaps adding a bit of confusion to support reasonable doubt …?
I completely agree w you!! There is so much evidence and details to incriminate Alex but the jurors need to understand the significance of these pieces to this puzzle. I’m watching this post trial and I can stop and rewind when I do not understand something. I cannot imagine how overwhelmed the jurors were with all of this evidence presented. So glad Justice ruled in this one!
Very sad for the young life cut off and the lovely free spirited woman cut off from her future. Just a tragedy
The siren I the background sends chills down my spine it's been happening every day
Before calling Randy, he had talked in length to John Marvin and Chris Wilson about an hour before.
He has all set- even left his phone on the house -alibi ‘nap’-except for that 8:44 pm video…..there is no way he didn’t do it…to be there at 8:44pm and Paul /Maggie phone locked forever at 8:49pm….5min! Just left time to load and aim….this is so sad..
Deceiving the investigators, that's a great way to help find the killer
The cell phone and on-star evidence combined with Paul’s last video is enough evidence for me.
OnStar, the silent witness...
Yep another helpful type of technology
places him at the scene, Alex has lied over and over and over and over. Not one statement from Alex has been true. EVIL COLD MAN. He is smirking as they talk about the bodies
Just like his son, smirking when that girl flew out of the boat. He and his 2 sons are the same. In the genetics, their definely both his sons.
You can plan a miser or any intense wrongful and criminal action all you want to,..but in almost all cases,. especially in these days/ times of cell phones plus all other technology that they seem to lack any understanding. Also,… you cannot prepare to how you will react after the fact of the crime, which is how most get caught! It must be to connected to “psychopaths/sociopaths”… or… “pure evil”. This is one sad case.💔
I feel so uncomfortable using my phone now
Don't worry. Technology like this is not only useful for catching criminals, but is intended for other uses. It works to put criminals in prison where they belong. That's where he belongs!
If they can uncover iPhone location data, why can't they use it on Maggie's phone to see what time it was thrown on the side of the road?
They did. This guy literally testified that Alex’s car slows down right where her phone was thrown, and then accelerates extremely fast just as he leaves the spot and doesn’t slow down until he reaches his mothers house, that was at 9:07pm, idk if her phones iPhone location was updating its location when it’s moved like it would in a city but in a rural area it could update its location after not having signal for minutes and then update its location with an inaccurate time. It’s only because his Onstar has satellite GPS we can so accurately put him there
@@lisasolis7399 that’s literally what I said, they were able to use his Onestar GPS and see it slowed down in the exact same area where her phone was thrown and then suddenly sped up, my point was IPhone location data may show you the accurate location but if your in a rural area where it’s hard to get a signal your iPhone location may not update until it gets data so iPhone location data can be more inaccurate than the GPS data they used to nail him , plus they have proven that right when he slows down in that area a second later her phone screen flips orientation almost as it’s being thrown and then his Onstar GPS shows him suddenly speeding away so the IPhone location data is kinda moot they nailed him on that alone
@@alexanderdumas- I have to disagree, that he slowed down, and then sped up.
If you watch the video I posted in my above to you, it shows that he sped up after leaving his driveway and he went from 37mph to 42mph, to 45mph, all within a few seconds. No where does it show he slowed down, even though the guy says he does.
The thing I'm saying about the phone locator is that it would DEFINITIVELY prove he had it with him when he left the house.
If the phone service could show it flipped orientation, why couldn't it show it moving in a vehicle?
Really doesn't matter. Its been proven t be at the crime scene and then thrown into the road a 1/2 mile away.
@@rhondafredericksen2302 it did matter back before the verdict.
What on earth was he "thinking" taking his wife's phone and throwing it away???? How does her phone being taken from the crime scene - but Paul's phone not being taken - boost the "it was a revenge killing for the boat incident"???? Hrs really isn't 'clever' as he thinks he is
could Maggie of set her phone on alex car hood or bumper wile she was fussing with stuff at the kennel and it fell off on his drive?
@@thedullone hmmmm good one. But don't they have different cars? Why would she put her phone on his? Was it closer? What's your thoughts 🤔
He was getting dumber by the day.
How in the world can Alex Murdaugh’s lone son sit in court and support his dad after knowing his dad executed his mother & brother
because maybe buster hit smith with is car , he need to be nice to is father or goes to jail too.
His probably has high hopes his dad didn't do it. But it has been proven that he did. His son just like him, never shed a tear for his mom orbrother. He'll be living a much different life now. If he makes it.
The reason he slowed down was because there was a cop who was driving the speed limit. But Alec was quickly able to pass him.
Wow this info is the most damning of all!
I am so grateful for all your comments and points of view! So much info to take in and I appreciate everyone’s insight. Just a little sidebar observation … are any of you amazed at how cluttered the courtroom is? Food, drinks, and electrical cords all over the desks and floor. I couldn’t work in such a messy environment!
I know right, I was thinking the same thing!! One of the attorneys actually almost tripped over one of said cords!
Yeah this is a really messy courtroom. Watching the Prosecuting Attorney skim past the monitor so as not to tip it off the desk lol.
You should see these guys offices.. The courtroom is just a small extension of that.
With technology moving forward its amazing how much paperwork still gets done in the legal industry.
@@elizaleroux9173 I believe it....I've worked with college faculty for years and some of their offices are beyond description. These types of people are dug in and nothing gets past them.
@@101GM8 The defense is a bunch of good ole boys who demean people to get their point across, especially talking to women in the courtroom. Bad upbringing probably and how they have won cases in the past, by acting like bullies.
Never a big fan of convicting someone of murder without DNA/Forensic evidence - but the OnStar/cell phone data in this case is simply amazing.
Slam Dunk case, this guy is guilty
I understand what you mean but then, if that's all was used, no one would have been convicted before computers and cell phones. The circumstantial evidence is overflowing in this case. He missed lots of stuff when he planned this one
And yes, before modern technology a lot more innocent people were convicted, some sentenced to death. I'm sure it still happens but not nearly as often
Sound is perfect
I have become a loyal fan of Profiling Evil, fabulous insight by a real live former homicide detective. He’s awesome!!
he call his wife 9:04 pm and 9:06pm don’t get answer,yet he goes straight in his suburban at 9:07pm and don’t turn to the kennels to see why she does not answer……if I was jury this made me said he is guilty
Didn't he already kill her by then. Dead ppl don't answer phones. It would have been great if she did though.
This is proof enough for me that Alec killed his wife and son. It's the best evidence I've seen so far.
Why were the police letting Alex walk all over the crime scene. Anyone else would have been made to sit tight.
He knew them all and initially maybe they believed him.
Put paint on his shoes and have him walk the number of steps in one minute that was in the table. Let’s see that. Then, measure his stride for the super fast steps vs the slower steps. Have a man his height and weight on that June 7 mimic his stride. Head from the kennel to where Maggie’s phone was located. How many steps? At Almeida, step under and around tall spruce trees where items could have easily been hidden, temporarily or longer. Plenty of steps on the hunting property for him to hide guns, since the relatives and friends were not allowing the investigators to do their jobs without being watched constantly. This was WRONG investigators. Relatives were hawk eyeing the whole time. So many wrong doings by both sides. Throw privilege outside the gates next time, all relatives and friends should have exited. Not walking property, the scene, the house, totally wrong.
These steps were mostly made around the dead bodies
I’ve seen many videos of this trial to learn about this trial.
Until I saw this video , I was giving AM the benefit of the doubt.
I could not believe a father would blow his son’s brain out, nor his wife.
Watching this Now I know for a fact this guy is the murderer.
Family is never always good family. These shows highlight the worst of the worst in families. Money and greed wins over genetics.
SAME! When I first heard he was being accused of murdering his own son, just so completely unfathomable, I'm like "get outta here! No way he did that! It will come out in the trial no way he did that!" He was truly innocent in my heart, no way I believed that! It's so unbelievable, But then: all this...😢😢😢😢. Still feels so incredibly not possible. What in the actual hell Alex M??!!!!Deeply evil.
And he had absolutely no reason or motivation to kill them. I've researching this for hours for that answer. Like you said, he was just a cold calculated killer, that's all. Bye Paul, hope you enjoyed your short life on the outside. Now your home.
I feel in my heart his wife was a very good person. Him and his sons exactly the same!
I have never heard of a man shooting his own son for nothing at all while that his son was set up by someone because his son was set up because of the girl he killed in the boat accident. I wonder if Paul realized how stupid this sounds. He was running out of legimate lies.
As VILE AS HE IS, I wouldn’t put it past him to try to get to Paul’s phone and hold it up to his face to get “FACE RECOGNITION” to see if it would unlock the phone, and he could alter or delete that video, or whatever else he could get his hands on.. since it clearly puts him at the crime scene. And, because of that reasoning, he put on HIS GREAT ACTING ROLE! 😒
I bet since he couldn’t get into the phone, maybe he was calling Paul’s friend Rogan, to see if “He had heard anything from Paul?” - to check and find out hoping his friend would say “yea, he sent me that video, etc” and get his narrative straight, cover his bases! 😒
couldnt dont think Paul had a face left
@@grands4691 you’re right about that! 😔
I don't think his face looked the same anymore, his dad disfigured it so I don't think that would have worked. Ya gotta have the face for that to work
I'm curious how his team is going to assess the cell phone information. I guarantee it's going to be totally different. Even in cross exam, the "expert" struggled to answer some very simple questions. Just wait until the defense can present their prepared analysis of it, instead of a virtually immediate response.
And how far away exactly from her phone was it where he slowed down?!
Approx. A 1/2 mile.
I think the defense will say he was speeding home because he was concerned about Maggie because she wasn't answering the phone or texting back.
Don't give them ideas
@@marshadavies8440 I said the same thing 😅🙈
Why did he supposedly drive right past the kennels and not stop to tell Maggie and Paul he was leaving for his moms?
lol
I wonder why. He did not make it as a criminal. Should have been a good father and husband instead. A much better role for a man.
Questions to anyone in the U.S. that can help please: When the jurors wind up and go off and deliberate, are they then allowed to take in pen and paper and all of this data in hard copy form so they can review it without confusion? Good on them for retaining that amount of info without a pen and paper. Second question: Why is AM sitting between his lawyers and not in shackles and chains as people charged in other high profile cases are? Many thanks from Australia 🇦🇺
Good questions. I’d like to know too.
I think they'll have access to all video, audio, transcripts, timelines that have been admitted into evidence!!
@@ellemack8987 many 😊 thanks
Defendants are allowed to dress in street clothes during trial
They aren’t shackled because there were studies done that showed that seeing a person in handcuffs or shackled gives the appearance of guilt same with his clothing. It could be an issue used during an appeal and the prosecutions goal is to limit appealable issues.
He drove right past the kennels! If he was so concerned about Maggie why didn't he stop by the kennels? Instead he went straight to the end of the road and turned right and drove to his home. Just more BS from AM.
Well that proves he was not concerned with maggie. He left her and Paul lying right there full of bullet holes.
His steps doubled right after their phones locked forever. My assumption is he was running 🏃♂️ away or driving the cart away from the crime scene 😮😢
On no, he's busy running around the dead bodies while shooting them. The prosecutor asked what were you doing running around in circles or doing jumping jacks he said no, finally some truth out of him. 383 steps in like 3 minutes. His adrenaline kicked in because he was killing people. This is called the fight or flight hormone. It actually creates vary fast hormone that circulates thru our bodies very fast. This is normally when criminals get very stuoid. They can't control it until the calm down again.
AM is toast after this. There is no other explanation.
The court system is a joke. Everyone knows he did it. Why is it so frikkin complicated. Cos he's rich, that's why. If it was a normal person they'd already be behind bars. The evil fukker will still probably get off. I hope not, so i can retain some faith in the legal system.
I think this, with some of the most powerful testimony in this entire trial. I basically pinned him at the death scene, and on top of that shows he was trying to cover his tracks. There’s only one reason why he would do that. Also him calling buster they didn’t say anything about that? Did they ask buster about it? Also, if his dad was on death store, how it his dad be able to sign for him another 600,000 as a cosigner? He was probably rubbing his father’s finances as well.
Hopefully he did get some of dads money, pretty sure he won't be getting anymore. Now his son will have to live like the other 99% of us. His gonna end up like his dad. He's use to getting everything for free. Its going a whole new lifestyle for him and lonely one.
Im confused, is there any data of Maggie's phone moving from the kennel to the road?
Just another two questions to anyone in the U.S. Is the jury sequestered for the entire time until they arrive at a verdict? Second question; why weren’t they sequestered in such a big trial? Thanks from Australia 🇦🇺
It would be nearly impossible to seat a jury if the potential jurors knew they were going to be sequestered for months. Most of them would have legitimate reasons for why being sequestered that long would cause a hardship on them and/or their family. People get out of doing jury duty for much less.
@@wasidanatsali6374 thanks
They are instructed to not watch anything about trial or talk about it. Before the daily trial the judge will confirm they haven't. It's an honor system I suppose
I'm am so sure it didn't take the jury long to find him guility!
It’s obvious that he ditched her phone. Why? He could have just left it with her body. Was he afraid someone might answer it when he made his fake phone calls?
That would be creepy for him. Lol
Question for defense team, why does the prosecution keep switching back and forth from Verizon data to I phone data for location ?
They are showing that some phone calls were deleted, but, Verizon has them recorded anyway.
@@Jan-zv7ze ok now I see
I was a juror in a trial .they used
Throw away phones but they extracted info from the console of the vehicle , very good information !
Look to Buster, PAUL MURDOUGH’s older! Brother for ALEX’s partner in that horrible murder! No one checked HIS. CLOTHES OR WHEREABOUTS! Plus. PAUL OR MAGGIE WERE NOT SURPRISED OF THE OTHERS PRESENCE! or? He is defiantly wants DADS FAVOR!
I noticed that the prosecution noted that Alex read a group text insinuating he was more interested in reading a 🌶️ text over his dad’s health update. However, the prosecution also decided to end the data report 3 minutes prior to the read 🌶️ message so we do not know what his other activity was at the time. If you are on the phone or trying to text someone else it is very easy to click on the message by mistake. I wonder what his phone activity was at the time. That would be very telling to his true intentions one way or another.
What is a 🌶 text?
What’s a hot text ?
Where do we get to see the unpleasant defense attorney question this witness?
Witness is excused lol!
Were Chris and buster asked about the cell calls AM made to them just after 9pm?
How do these high falutan rich people get away with stuff like this I have never been able to figure it out
Just look at our politicians...lol.
Money?
white
He hasn’t gotten away with it yet.
Entitlement, well connected, have each other in their pockets and pay people off
No reason why anyone would take her cell other then AM
Can someone tell me the time code where they say the killer tried to unlock Maggie’s phone with facial recognition?
That would have been impossible. You need the same face for that. Her husband disfigured her face after shooting her with a high power rifle I believe.
@@rhondafredericksen2302 yes, that was the point someone made. That he would actually try to unlock it after her injuries made it impossible.
Innocent people dont lie folks.....theres no reason to
That's right. He tried to keep up with all the lies, but he dug himself a hole when he couldn't keep up with them though. Proving he should have left killing to someone else
Murdaugh was the case that they gave me
His look when he hears the time of arrival at the kennel to when he places the call is 20 seconds, oh no, I am busted.
Haha!
I have forgotten when AM ment he was napping. Anyone who knows and specially what does his Phone data tell from his socalled time napping?
He was supposed to be napping from 8-9 pm I think but obviously the snap chat video places him at the kennels then moments later his phone records over 200 steps in about 5 mins before travelling to see his mum .
This video really convinces me that Alex killed Maggie and Paul .
Mmmm...walking in his sleep? The devil man!!
THIS MAN IS SO GUILTY BUT WILL EVERY JURY SEE IT?
This electronic time log tell us THE TRUTH! WE HEARD ALEX SAID, HE WAS NOT AT THE KENNELS. Was he sleep walking and driving! Come on SC get this right!
I know at some point he said he was at his mothers who has severe Alzheimer's, an alibi like this is useless, it is not verifiable, she has Alzheimer's, good try though paul
At what stage/ time is it suspected they were killed at?
The were killed at about 8:50
A wise man said everything in the universe is connected, in earlier times, one would dial the operator, and she or he would connect you with the party you were trying to reach, the incoming call would be connected to a panel (called a "patch panel"), to the outgoing connecting line to connect you with the party that you are trying to reach. Then they figured out how to do it electronically, thus eliminating the human factor.
Today's equivalent of an operator is the cell phone tower, with the advent of GPS technology, the technology can show where the call came from, who sent the call, who received the call, the duration of the call, etc, etc.
And I am sure of the multiple calls that the tower received that day, they can extract who sent a call and who received that particular call, rarely, if ever are two calls connected to one line.
A one ringey dingey ...... a two ringey dingeys .....
GPS is military technology. Thank goodness they spy on all of us now NOT
@@myemail5002I was thinking the same thing. Laugh in is a show we need today. No comedy on tv anymore. Lies and more lies is all they offer us. I don't watch network anything
@@myemail5002 is that you Ernestine? 😁
@@carolyncurry9615 😅
Did he have a gps tracking device on his vehicle? That would easily help where was he at and what time he went to his mother’s house
Yes , it shows him being at his mom's house for 20-21 minutes.
The auto had OnStar service, that recorded locations.
Yup
Won't matter, his mother has Alzheimer's making his alibi ridiculous. His mother at this point probably doesn't remember her son. It is serious at this point. So that was a stupid alibi for him to use. They would never put her on the stand, she's unverifiable.
Why would he take maggies phone? Maybe bc he suspected she was planning to leave him and he just had to pry in her phone to try and see. He did it 100%
Stupid idea
