The Alex Murdaugh Story

[mr.checkerboards]

Why tho?

I think what happened is Alex's whole world is falling apart and Bo and maybe Mom get into it with him about Gloria and the truth comes out or Bo reveals he's gonna tell authorities about his suspicions and then Alex kills them both. Brandon's not there.

That's just my $0.02

Bo? Brandon? Paul is the son who passed.

I do agree, Alex's whole world was falling apart, Paul was forcing him to get clean and Maggie was filing for divorce. They knew too much and had to go.
Now, for Buster he was going to benefit from the money that would be left, and AM has an Ace in the hole with the 2015 murder where all signs point to Buster.

I couldn't remember his first name ATM, but Anthony referred to him as "Bo" sometimes, so I went with that.

Fair enough.

I keep wondering if Alex is like one of those fathers you occasionally read about who murders their whole family and then commits suicide. Everyone always remembers them as loving fathers, very attentive and controlling. Psychologists say when those guys lose control of their world, they decide to take everyone out. Except in this case, after murdering his son and wife, Alex chickened out at the last moment and couldn't commit suicide. Then, he has second thoughts and arranges for his friend to murder him so at least his remaining son can claim insurance money. But the guy misses when they stage the flat tire drama.

Thats my .02 worth.

This is gonna be a hung jury the state left plenty of doubt. Two guns two shooters

 

[mr.checkerboards]

That was fast

That was fast

You hate to see it..

I was worried he was gonna get the Casey Anthony treatment but I'm convinced he did it. The video Paul took right before he was shot in which you could hear Alex talking did it for me. What a scum bag.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

The only unfortunate thing is he gets to live his life out, its a shame he doesnt get fried tomorrow.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

I’m actually surprised they returned a guilty verdict.

 

[Tman44]

That was faster than OJ Simpson; however, this jury got it right this time. I hate it for the surviving son Buster.

 

[Noni]

I know every family is a bit dysfunctional but damn they really have had issues.

Seriously. Dad in prison for life. Mom and brother gone. Family business gone. All his life he grew up privileged and rich and now he has nothing by no fault of his own. Thats tough.

The family business is still there, I think his uncles are partners. Also he was kicked out of law school for plagiarism so he had his opportunities, I'm not feeling a lot of sympathy for him on that part.

OJ actually said publicly that he thought the guy was guilty. Irony, please sit down and cry.

But wait, there's MORE! Buster was kicked out of USC Law; however, Alex paid a buddy of the Dean $60k to get him back in. Can't make this up. Also, Buster will not be destitute. Once the sale of the Moselle property (solely owned by his mother) is completed, he will receive $500k of the proceeds. I saw that during trial so I can't link. Here is the link to the pay your way back into law school article dated 7/4/22.

Just out of curiosity, who will get the remainder of proceeds from the property sale. Isn’t the property and house worth several million?

 

[Regulator]

This family lived a life of never having consequences or repercussions for their actions. Now, they’re learning all about them.

They shaved his head the first time. Wonder why they did it again?

I was able to find a link. Basically boat wreck victims and creditors.

My guess is lice. Its cheaper to shave heads than to de-louse the prison.

Thanks. Sounds pretty fair to me.

Give me death over life in prison, for real

Na. Life in prison will be a living hell. He’d rather die.
