Alex Murdaugh Locked Up for Killing Wife and Son - Full Sentencing Recap
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 мар 2023
- The jury wasted no time in convicting Alex Murdaugh on Thursday of murdering his wife and son in June 2021. The next morning, Judge Clifton Newman dressed down the disgraced lawyer before sending him to prison with two consecutive life sentences for the killings of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh. After court ended, key players that helped lock up Murdaugh spoke with the Law&Crime Network about their role in the case and their opinion of the disbarred South Carolina attorney. Mark Tinsley, an attorney for Mallory Beach's family, explains why he believes the deadly boat crash involving Paul Murdaugh triggered a chain reaction that ultimately led to his father killing him. Sidebar host Angenette Levy Sidebar and Tinsley recap key moments from the last 24 hours of Alex Murdaugh’s family murders trial.

I have so much respect for Judge Newman. He lost his son to a heart attack and was able to, not only "keep himself together", but preside over this trial in such a professional manner, it speaks VOLUMES to this man's character.
The officer nodding emphatically behind Alex when the judge says the sentences will run consecutively. Nice.
And the female officer behind him had her eyes closed and was saying "Thank you Jesus" to herself.
He did this A LOT. I watched him since Alex didn't seem to change his expression.
@@terr777 watch him and Alex during the very last rebuttal by meadows from the prosecution 😂
Two life sentences consecutively? How is that possible?
@Yu So it's more to come.
He is facing another 10 years for stilling at least.
I love how the court security police right behind AM could help but nod his head in agreement of the verdict. So crazy that Buster and AM's brother were so expressionless.
I think it's because they are in shock and they deep down know his guilt!!
None of these courtroom observers should have made any visible reactions but most certainly someone who's acting in an official capacity. He should have kept his emotions in check. It was completely unprofessional
Dont think it was a shock to them. Any shock was probably the reality of them not steamrolling and people lying for them. They were the big fish in the little pond.
@@isabellind1292 while I agree with you id be willing to bet that not too many people there aren’t related to someone screwed over by him or his family
@@freddylong156 Sounds like the judge had a personal connection to AM to blurt out AM may not have been the killer but somehow his alter-ego kicked in somewhere along the way which may have turned him into a monster as a result of his addiction.
I hope the judge doesn't deduce all killers aren't responsible for their actions because he concluded AM may not have been himself at the time. It was a ridiculous statement for the judge to make.
I love the judge. He seems like a compassionate person.
That video was his sentence, that’s the end of it.
And magnificent speech from the judge, huge respect for him how cleverly and empathetically treated the case!
Wouldn’t it have been wonderful had he been the judge on D Brooks case?
The video was the one thing he didn’t count on coming back to haunt him in his evil plan bc don’t get it twisted, he planned it down to the T, he summoned Maggie and Paul the that specific property, he used two different guns to throw off the cops, he spilled the tea on his so called alibi and blamed the threats as the killers within the first 15 mins of investigation, he showed no compassion throughout the investigation and trial, zero tears, all was an act and the jury saw right through him while he was on the stand. Good riddance Alex!
@@patriciafoster3347 In D Brooks aka Sovereign citizen was quite wise to put a woman judge in the trial, just by looking at how he treated women in general before getting locked up so that must’ve hust him to the core that a woman judge sentenced him - well done to Jennifer Dorrow for that!!
@@SRolla You’re right!
Much prayers to the judge. May he grieve in peace as he lost his son during this trial. Bless his heart, soul and most of the ability to show us how practice patience even in the darkest of times…10/10 this judge is a HERO
It must have been so hard for him seeing this POS that murdered his son and wife every day whilst trying to grieve for his own precious son. Judge Newman was a true professional and empathetic man 🫶
@@leeannelucy339
Oh no, what happened to his son, and how old was he? 💔💔💔🙏🏼
@@FLo-jc7ig he was 40 and died of a “cardiac event” on 3rd January 😢😢
that is terrifying to know that Alex was thinking about killing them for a long time and they didn’t have a CLUE that he had turned on them
Great job to all the prosecutors and especially Judge Newman for delivering justice for this evil monster. He won’t be able to hurt anyone ever again!
👍🙏
Agree
Well said!!!!
@louise dow liar
@@alexandramoyer8785 lol
I LOVED when the Judge threw the “tangled web” line back at him ! 😂 👏👏
"I would never hurt my wife Maggie. I would never hurt my son Paul-Paul."
He never denied murdering them. He used distancing language the entire time.
I heard that too. "I DID *NOT* KILL MY WIFE, Maggie. I DID *NOT* KILL MY SON, Paul. I don't know what else to say, your honor, except everyone has got it all wrong here. Whoever murdered my family, MY SON, is still out there."
He didn't even have to cry if he's out of tears. But, seeing his lack of urgency even more now, shows you, he ain't finished. No more rocking back & forth, the wailing of tears. Hopefully the Judge brought him solace and an ending to his lies. Alex looked relieved actually. It must've been exhausting holding all that lies in.
Mark Tinsley along with Kenny Kinsey are my 2 star witnesses of the trial. The way Mark put that defense attorney over his knee and spanked him (outside presence of jury) was just brilliant!! Bravo Mark!
he sticking with the “Paw Paw” I see
Agree. So false and cringy!
Pathetic excuse for a human being. Alex’s use of the alleged pet name wasn’t genuine, just another ploy.
Judge deserves a long vacation after that trial. Such a profound man. And to learn he had just lost his son at the beginning of the year breaks my heart.❤️
He got rid of the clothes with blood stains. He got rid of the gun. His friends the policemen gave him a pass by not securing the murder scene immediately and by overlooking a bunch of things they should have taken as evidence. By the way, did Alec Murdaugh hire a PI to look for the killer o killers of his beloved wife and son? Why did he call his only surviving son 48 minutes after the 911 call? Was he dozzing off or wasn't he? How could he not hear the gunshots in a quiet place like that if he was so close? Why did he ask his mother's caretaker to lie about how much time he had spent at the house? Or their housekeeper as well? Most importantly, he confessed he lied about the most important piece of evidence only because he had been caught in that video and the excuse for his liying was an even bigger lie. I just don't understand why so many lawyer seemed so dissapointed with the veridict. Could it be because the one convicted was one of their own? A seemingly normal man can murder his family for no apparent reason, remember Chris Watts?
He is definitely guilty. He was FOR SURE PROVEN to be at the kennels within like 6 min of the murders . He definitely did it even if he acts like it he at least knows and saw who did . But he did it
I agree with everything you said. I am somewhat perplexed at how many lawyers are upset with the result. I would have thought they would be happy that such a crooked lawyer being brought to justice. He sure threw a shadow on the profession.
Yep, and the time he took to hide his clothes and get rid of the gun is where the 300+ steps his phone captured during that time, he thought he could get away with it .. underestimated the technology, the housekeepers, and the lies he was exposed on…
Well Chris Watts was in love with another woman so that seemed logical. Im still trying to rationalize what was Alex motive. I don't see a valid motive. This is why I'm still listening to the videos and reading comments.
Thank God Paul took that video or he may of gotten off. If you aren’t guilty you don’t need to lie. He never asked or pleaded to find their killers. Very telling.
Ever hear that lies are easier than truth to believe?
He surely would have gotten off if not for the video. 🇧🇷
@@lola.lola1147 I agree the lil detective speaking beyond the grave
What video?? Where
@starz1779. Lying is not killing
Love how judge told Alec when you close your eyes tonight, Paul and Maggie will be there , and every other night !!!!
And Alex’s reply to Judge Newman was a lie. I don’t believe Alex actually feels love, sorrow or regret. His wife and son won’t haunt him, as he has no conscience. Just my take.
@@KohalaLover Unfortunately, I agree. His only regret is that he didn't get away with it.
It seems that lawyers make the worst criminals.
Ambulance chasers are the smartest folk walking the surface of the planet or so they think ...
Ditto!!! Like Doctor's being the worse patients!!! So SAD TO BE RELINQUISHED TO THIS, HAVING A LEGACY.
The swamp runs deep in congress
Actually they make the BEST criminals.
@Madmarsha I will look for stories featuring criminal lawyers. This could be a source of interesting material.
Judge Newman's comments and addressing AM was classic. He was kind in his rebuke. Not a bad bone in the man's judicial manners.
Paul Solved his own murder
2:47 I loved that officer behind Alex who you could see a bigger shot earlier and him nodding his head while grilling at Alex was priceless! If looks could've killed!! That guy was the best!
I had been watching him all along. He never ever changed expressions until today with the nodding. Plus I like that he is wearing his uniform now.
You notice during sentencing not one tear was shed, even when the judge said" and you probably loved Paul very much". If that was during the trial you can be sure he would have been ' balling".
During the the trial Alex was working on getting an Oscar
Judge to killer, "your statement of denial ..for the court... perhaps you believe it does not matter for the sentence of what you committed" So eloquent and profound!
The video was Paul defending himself from the grave.
So sad to think that when Paul was innocently taking that video of Cash because he was concerned about the dogs tail, little did he know he would be dead just minutes later.. And at the hands of his own dad.
His reaction while being sentenced of a GUILTY man
I appreciate Mark’s insight. I think Alex should have plead guilty. At some point, you have to face the man in the mirror.
Absolutely agree
Alec had suppressed anger towards Paul for putting him & his misdeeds in the spotlight. If it wasn't for the boat wreck all of this wouldn't be coming out. Maggie was "happy" with the money & lifestyle. Why else would she put up with his philandering? She was comfortable with her lifestyle & could always go stay at the beach, or one of her families places like Key West. She was not happy when her checks bounced & credit card declined.
Yup, you're correct about Maggie.
She's NOT innocent as many others portrayed her.
It's so obvious on the death of the house maid.
The deceased (maid) family suffered financially ....
yet she was enjoying the $$$$ gotten from evil ways.
Maggie choose to be silent knowing all the wrongs doings.
iF anyone knew another person/s wrong doing continuously
& keeping quiet .....
and enjoying the comfort & privileges ....
IT'S AS GUiLTY !!!!

So glad Judge locked him up and threw away the key. This case proves KARMA is real since it was Paul’s videos that sealed the case and secured Justice for himself and his beloved Mother.. May they now R.I.P.
Justice served!
What a wild ride it has been with you all! Peace be upon you ^^
And with you. ☮️
He doesn’t feel guilty about the murders because he doesn’t feel he did wrong. He was looking out for #1.
Karma
Very informative! Well done
Great interview 👍
AM is just a selfish and evil person. He doesn't even look like he cares about anything or anyone else.
To Alex just remember the first life sentence is always the hardest.
Where is his other brother? I haven't seen him at all throughout the trial.
I think Randy has been there a couple of times, but isn't he sueing Alex?
Mark Tinsley is the 1st lawyer I really like as a human.
if you listened to him on the stand, he said he's never INTENTIONALLY hurt his wife or son.
maybe he finally told the truth in there.
lost in a withdrawal rage.
either way he did it.
and we'll never know the truth.
because even if alex confesses, you'll never believe any reason he states.
Like Chris Watts that confessed only to taint his wife's name. Then lied again until finally confessed the murders of his 2 little girls. Horrible. AM said himself, once he starts a lie he just continues lying.
RIP Maggie and Paul justice was served
NOW he knows how it feels to be locked up just like he imprisoned all those poor dogs, in the darknesss he will reside just like those innocent dogs he kept locked up.
Mark Tinsley! Yay! I enjoyed your testimony.
Yes Mark Tinsley demonstrated nobility and decency. I believe, or like to think, we are drawn to truth and principles as they are a life raft in the chaos around us.
He will never see the light of day again.
There are certain cases that you’ll never forget
Lol @ that cop nodding behind Alex
So does anyone know when the case for Curtis Smith and Alex roadside incident happening?
The misery of human nature depresses me. This case is forever ingrained in my mind. May God be merciful of us all. 🇧🇷
This one and Darrell B.
Indeed. Greed and rage were the driving forces..why would anyone who had so much choose to destroy himself and decimate his family's life and heritage blows one's mind. 😒🙄
How is ALEX MURDAUGH pronounced ALEC MURDOCK?! What world is this?
This is America
Murdaugh is an Irish/Scottish name, Murdock is Anglo-Saxon version.
He could’ve added he’s sorry to his family , especially his son left behind, even if he was innocent
That would b admitting guilt. He can’t because they are appealing
He did, after he was convicted
It is said Alex did. He said “I’m sorry. I love you” to Buster as he left the courtroom.
So ,if a relative tries to unearth me, I should just spray them???
Why does he call his adult son " Paulpaul"? To diminish his importance, to make it easier to discard his memory??? 🤔🤔🤔
"Paw-paw" was the family's pet-name for him. Same as Buster isn't his other son's real name. Its not to diminish them, just a family nickname.
@@awalshe77 Buster is called Bus by family.
@@awalshe77 it’s actually Paul Paul… I creeped his cousins Instagram and that’s what she wrote. Probably sounds like Paw Paw due to their accent
Kinda weird how you did a pepper spray ad. Can you imagine pepper spray vs AM? 🤨
The interview with Mr. Tinsley was Fantastic !! This gentleman is an absolute professional and I’m very confident saying that I would Not want to face him in court !😅! Seems like a good guy and looks great for having been through his own personal health issues and I think if anything it made him even smarter 👍🏼😎💯🎯. Good luck Sir
God Bless and prayers for Mallory Beach’s entire family and friends.
Does Pau, and Maggies death affect the pay out on the civil suit payout in Mallory Beach case since Mr Tinsley was going after their estates
Good call people!
God bless the Beach family!
The sheriff standing behind this maggot IS BOSS! LOVE HIM , THE PROSECUTION& LOVE THE JUDGE !!!
After evidence of where he was and the crime... along with his reaction to the verdict...I think justice was served.
Doesn't faking being shot in the head on the side of the road also seem weird?
Bravo judge. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Kudos for Judge Newman for sure! I loved how he maintains his courtroom
I feel so sad for Maggie*s sister and family for their loss and Buster for all of his losses and Paul as well. 💔💔💔💔💔💔
The few minutes while Waters spoke about Maggie and Paul were very telling in my opinion. Through the entire trial, every time Maggie or Paul were mentioned, AM INSTANTLY started crying, wiping his eyes and nose constantly. This time, nothing. Not Even so much as a red eye! The jury did their job and did it well!
Didn't see that coming 🤔🙄🤨
Alex, I think deliberately, refrained from informing judge Newman of the remainder of the term he used to describe his modus operandi by which he's operated on his entire life it appears, as it perfectly and succinctly sums up EXACTLY what Alex did whenever he was confronted with the cold, hard truth, that being.... "Oh what a tangled (sometimes changed for wicked) Web we weave, when first we PLAN TO DECEIVE".
Yes God is merciful indeed . Justice and Mercy are the foundation of his Throne . If Alex repents from the Heart he will be forgiven but this stage justice has been done . All the best to you and as the song goes dont worry be happy !!!
Practice to deceive. Sir Walter Scott.
I have a question… what ever came about with the “b*mb threat” that was called to the courthouse in the judges chambers?? Any arrests? Does it just disappear?? Because Alex, that day when he was told about it, sure as heck grinned that evil grin as if he knew about it. And even if he didn’t, he freaking grinned at the mention of a threat to a courthouse and the judge presiding over his trial! He’s an evil evil man!
Haha ‘Obviously there was the boat case BUT’
Couldn't of picked a better judge 👏
I think Alex ate a pepper seed to cry, empty his sinuses, turn red and moving his tongue, so quickly on the stand.
I think you're right! I knew he mustve used something but couldn't think what it could be. But that's it!
Look at Buster in the background….it’s not normal to be that empty of emotions when you are talking about the murder of your mother and brother. Stone cold….I bet he has something to do with it and the murder of Stephen
He was there at the crime scene, killed Paul, Alex is covering up for him.
The first time I heard Harpootlian mention that 99 times out of 100 quote (at around 10:46 ) I had thought he was talking about circumstantial cases in general, but considering he was specifically referencing death penalty cases, I would agree with his assessment there.
Two last names I knew were trouble: *murdaugh* & *sykes* (Enron)
TY Lord🙏🤍
Yes thank the lord this guy sacrificed his own son just like yahwey! Praise the lord
The fact no family member wanted to say anything. Says alot
Quit the advertising
0:42 Gonna need a demo of the product before I buy
Busta, buba, rooroo , mags , paw paw 🤮
😂😂😂😂😂
Mark Tinsley was also a large part of getting this man caught.
you can't think rationally for irrational actions. Murdering someone isn't rational.
I'm surprised he didn't ask for a diversion program.
I can only imagine what was going through the Judge's mind while he was having to listen to this case. For weeks he heard about this monster that shot his son's brains out, and the Judge lost his own son and would probably give anything to have him back.
I've seen bad parents killing their crying babies and crying toddlers. But, why kill your 22 year old son? I'll never understand and I know I'll never get the truth from Alex.
Throughout the World! Judge, we have watched justice being served.
What I did not hear that wow this man was sick
He said he didn’t remember his last conversation with Maggie when he testified. That sealed the deal for me.
Paul too. Couldn’t remember the last words they exchanged? Alex couldn’t even come up with a lie to show his so-called love for Maggie and Paul.
When Waters asked him on the stand about the Dogs. Were they barking or acting up like they could sense something or someone they didn’t know was close ? Were they just doing what dogs do when they see or sense a stranger ? No Mr. Waters there was No one Else out there , There was nothing for them to sense. Waters said “ oh okay well that’s good “ !! So now he has admitted his alibi is a complete work of fiction and lies and there was No one Else except for the three people we heard on the video. For me that was a solidifying fact that this monster is guilty
Suppose he had confessed that he carried out the murders under the influence of the drugs, would it have spared him the maximum life sentence or death penalty? He’s a legal expert himself and he knows well why he’s lying.
i feel bad for alex murdaugh but at the sametime i don't feel sorry for him, maybe cause he's now locked up forever and his other son lost his immediate family
Interesting the Judge said the case was troubling for the defense team.
Respect to the Judge Newman, he's the New Man!! He's knowing what's to do and he is looking so sweet, what a man need more!
He was a fool to tell AM he might not have been the killer but morphed into whatever alter ego he wants to dream up AM became because of his addiction. What a ridiculous thing for a judge to say. I hope he doesn't give all killers an out to blame the monster inside them as if they aren't responsible for their own actions because this judge likes to conclude they weren't themselves. Just psycho babble.
That's your way to see it and I have mine, that's the way life goes!
Does anybody in the Murdaugh family or Maggie’s family or any friends of the families think he’s innocent. Buster? Does he believe his innocence? If so they should seek out the. “Real killer ‘s “ but I think they all know the truth
Even if he is an evil sociopath - why would he kill to delay financial crimes coming out by a couple months? It does not make sense.
Justice was served. Thank you jury for the right verdict
Most cases are circumstantial. Wake up!
🎯👍🏼
Trying to find out something concerning the dog kennel video. So, was the video being discovered a surprise or were they looking for a video that Paul's friend had informed them that he was expecting and never received? When did they retrieve the video? When was it presented to the Grand Jury? When did the defense find out about the video and when were they able to see it? When was the 1st time Alex found out about the video and when did he first see it? AND I wonder if they only got to hear it 1st or also saw the video. I know it was brought up in court on Feb. 1, 2023. However, I don't remember it being submitted into evidence. Seems like the State just presented it to the witnesses.
QUESTION Due to the fact Alex under oath "cough" to tell the truth admitted to being a thief embezzler fraud and money launderer, will there still be trials or just judgement awards and prison sentences?
There will be a trial (no date yet) regarding Alex’s financial crimes. I believe Alex will have 90 or so charges. Stealing millions from a young quadriplegic plus stealing millions from his housekeepers sons.
Something else is going on. Another person something just is not completely settled this!!!!
There will be an appeal filed in 10 days time. They are hoping to overturn the conviction in a higher court.
I'm hoping the prosecution and LE are out there looking for the clothes. How about at Eddie’s house? Keep looking for that other shotgun and have new damning evidence for the second trial if not denied by the court.
A STATE SENATOR of course has no conflict of interest in being private counsel. And he also has tons of free time to prepare and lead this high profile trial.
I think cell phone video of him being at the scene 4 minutes before the murders is pretty good forensic evidence… His lawyer should probably get with the times because the cop standing behind Alex certainly is 😏
Yes he did Kill them . The Judge has a point about the Drugs but he told Maggies sister the Person who did this thought about it for a long time . he was talking about himself so looks Premeditated to a large extent .
All the lawyers and judges act nice and like they actually care while on tv but it’s a whole different world when they’re not filmed.
I didn’t follow this trial so I asked if the prosecution ever established a motive for this horrendous evil act?
