Right after Alex “found” his son and wife murdered, he had a clear mind to tell the police how long he’d been somewhere, the exact hours and all that, dude had his story all lined up ready to go when police arrived, nobody would be able to think straight in a moment like that.
Exactly right they'd be sitting there trying to think where they were and you'd be struggling to think cause all that's in your mind is what's happened to your family

Interesting film plot, but it's been produced already. Therefore you drama queens should see life through the life experience instead of allowing this two-bit elected, and boring SC attorney general delude you. This two-bit bore who unfortunately is the SC Attny General has been the biggest liar. I am imagining that there are some intelligent, prescient members of his team who also don't buy what Mr Waters is selling. How torn and conflicted they must be, especially if they've heard him complain about the convincing, sensible counter-arguments that have been made by the competent Defense experts. I know that I would not want to be one of that Prosecution team who will all have egg on their faces when someday, yrs from now, the truth will be revealed which will acquit Alex Murdaugh of the charges. Being accessory to battering Alex, and remembering his grinding assaults on Alex --when he is still in deep grief over the ghastly, violent loss of his two close loved ones--should be the burden that Waters and his sidekick (that smug arrogant guy with the mop of graying hair sitting behind Waters) bears for the next 10 yrs maybe. Then, when new evidence is discovered, which I have no doubt will happen, the deception and subterfuge surrounding the methods of the Prosecutor's office will be revealed and it will be humiliating to all those who participated on that side of the aisle. My intuition tells me this.
@@CreazilsDad45 I don’t condone the killings but the Murdaugh family was well overdue for some karma. Alex,Paul Buster and even Maggie had a hand in at least one death be it causing or keeping very quiet about it.
Just remember, the jury found Casey Anthony "not guilty". She lied about everything and was still not convicted for murdering her beautiful daughter. Horrible people get away with horrible things.
If my wife and child were murdered, I'd not stop crying forever, and if I'm being accused I would be shaking my head pleading for them to find the killer..
I agree with you. I would be saying "wtf are messing with me for?. We goto go find those mutherfuckers. Now!!!" " Whoever did this." Again for a week I would not be able to move doubled over crying.
They get enough of them because of the wrong behavior. They would believe you because it's honest behavior, your body's reaction would react to your emotion. His body can't stop telling on him.
He didn't know about the video Paul took. If it were not for that, he may have never been charged. Financial crimes yes, but the murders, he almost pulled it off...especially with law enforcement in his pocket. Fascinating to watch but truly sad and gut wrenching.
Very damning how he was not concerned about finding the "actual" killers nor worrying about other members in the family/household who might also be in danger.
I truly hope this isn’t the way it actually happened. As a mother the thought of seeing my child laying dead like that😭😭I can only imagine the grief and fear she felt. Pure evil
It did happen just like that Ambushed Paul in the kill zone When Maggie came to rescue Paul He slaughtered her But not instantly She had enough time As did Paul to know who killed them They knew He knew We know
I get the sense that Maggie was close to Paul and Alex is close to Buster. He saw Paul as a burden and will cost him 30 million from the lawsuit and see Maggie will be getting half of his money.
@@angiecoers6255 you are right about that I got that feeling too cause Alex seemed upset when he mentioned paul was his little detective. Also I heard the video on Alex’s phone you can hear Alex say to Paul, Paul now why did you get yourself involved.
Jury sees him talking as the prosecutor describes the shooting. Seems a little insensitive to do it right at that moment, I know he's in court and has lawyers but come on
At exactly one minute into this, the prosecutor is asking why would he (AM) even have to think about lying if he were an innocent man. Look at AM shrug. Sickening.
His reaction in the police car immediately after the event said everything to me. Controlled , focused …a man knowing this part was really important. I could not speak one sentence if I had witnessed what he had. Guilty as they come
Yes! I saw a video of him in the car talking to detectives and he starts comparing people they knew in common from different areas..I was like wtf!! This ain’t social hour..he couldn’t even play the roll
This option would never enter sane, normal people's minds. Fortunately, him being a narcissist and a drug addict. Caused him to make mistakes. He wasn't as clever as he thought he was.
I think he will start bawling his eyes out when the defense gets up. After being so stoic during the prosecutions closing, that should tell the jurors something too. Excellent job, Mr. Prosecutor!!
Yes! What I’ve been saying. He will put his Theatrics on when that time comes. Today smirking but watch him morph when defense gets up. Not even crying about his Son and wife today. Totally Evil Con!
I Agree He h as devil eyes If they find him not guilty I hope the other charges put him in prison long I think He is Guilty but having money hidden he will get away with this I pray he doesnt Maggie and Paul needs Justice Closing was Long but I Thought he did a great Job .
I laughed out loud during his cross examination of Alex, when defense complained to the judge that this was a murder trial and Waters hadn't even used the word 'murder'.
It is so interesting that when AM was on the stand, he was terribly affectionate about his son Pau Pau and showing a lot of emotion like weeping. But now when the prosecutor was talking about how Paul had been shot, there was a cool indifference if not at times a look of irritation on AM's face.
So strange to visit your mama at 9:30pm on a Monday. No old person wants visitors at that time of night. If he was so concerned about her he would have gone to see her earlier in the day.
If he had one ounce of remorse for slaughtering his family, or the slightest genuine love for them rather than for his own hide, he would have pled guilty, fallen back on his drug addiction and huge financial stress as his excuse, and saved himself and his family from this awful degradation, humiliation and pain. But that’s narcissists for you, never believed HE could be exposed! What an evil man.
It shuttered me during testimony when witnesses were spoken with on about the kennels the dogs how excited they got, letting them out to run, the reason for shock collars, and how wild it became when Alex brought a hen I believe their to be among the chickens n dogs to that effect, it was stated itvwas when Alex brought the hen the dogs activity went wild with craziness, to that effect. Why do that? Why if you are claiming the noise and calamity gets to his nerve, including sweating, why bring in the hen? Seems cruel
Alex is a disgraceful human being. The only thing Maggie and Paul did wrong was to have him as a husband and father. It makes me sick to my stomach to think of how they died.
And this is why you would never be allowed on a jury haha... The DA really didn't prove this case. You can have your "idea" of what happened but that doesn't meet the burden of beyond a reasonable doubt. Also, following your idiotic logic - Paul wouldn't have existed without his father.
So i guess i just imagined Paul getting drunk and killing his friend then tryna blame it on another one smh not saying he deserved it buuuut he wasnt someone who did 'no wrong' far from it
I was think that at 1at until I saw the Netflix movie and I just said I guess karma is a real thing because it changed my whole mindset after finding out the truth about their family they are all off
Some folks spend 30 years desperately looking for the perpetrator of the murder of their loved ones. This man didn’t mind doing that for 30 seconds. THAT was the biggest red flag in my book.
7:30. "She was running to her baby. Heard that shot and was running to her baby when she got mowed down". 7:43 Alex nods his head YES! Where is the emotional distress now?!? GUILTY!!
Good Lord just look at the apathy on his face as the prosecution is detailing the murder timeline and the actions of a mother running to her child. Pure evil incarnate right there!
When he reaches to touch his chin you can see his fingers/hand is trembling, apart from his random moments of attempts to disregard what the prosecutor is saying. What a POS.
Watching the Netflix series i truly think this whole family were intrinsically evil. Watching the aftermath of the boat crash was heartbreaking, seeing the Murdaughs at the hospital doing their best to intimidate the other people on the boat was nauseating to watch. They tried so hard to point the finger at Conner as the driver of the boat. The impact of their self serving greed.and and entitlement has destroyed the lives of so many people. Let’s hope he is found guilty for all of his evil deeds.
The ripple effect of this man, cultivating an arrogant family who did as they pleased, and then killing his wife and son, stealing, lying, killing, and covering up everything. Involving so many innocent people. He is a sociopath.
I always thought that Paul was killed first because he would be the bigger threat. Maggie hearing those shots probably thought a gun accidentally went off, but to her surprise she was the next victim. So very sad.
He actually smirked more today then at any other time. He seemed to be deriding most of the points the Sate was making. He also spent a lot of time making comments to his lawyers unlike before.
That's his baby and wife who got killed. Of course, he would get emotional. Don't you see how much weight he lost being to stress? If he did not kill, you should not be sending the wrong person to jail. I am sure Paul and his mom would not Rest In Peace.
I mean if that's how you want to judge him, he got very emotional and crying during his testimony about finding them dead, and during the testimony of the crime scene evidence. I don't believe him for a minute, but he's good at showing emotion whether it's real or fake.
Poor Buster, not really….he testified that Paul wasn’t driving the boat….same liar as DAD. Shows no emotion at all except anger….just like Alex. Pure evil 👿
If Alex gets found guilty, all of his mothers assets go to Buster, according to Alex her assets are worth millions......and we know Alex wouldn't lie about that.....
Claighten, You Guys rocked. Congratulations on getting your point across and your team spelling it out. Like many, I was afraid He was going to walk. So glad the jury didn’t buy into his bs.after all He fooled an entire law firm.
I wish the prosecutor stood closer to him so the jury would be looking at Alex and watching his reactions to what they are all hearing. His face is telling it all.
I’m proud of the prosecutors- Creighton Waters and Alan Wilson. I don’t know the names of the other state’s attorneys. Creighton made Maggie and Paul come back alive, if only for a short time. Impactful. Gave me chills. Malice, forethought and motive. Alex is a stone cold killer. I hope the jury saw through his theatrics and fake crying.
She was running to her baby. Whatever we may think of Paul, he was Maggie's baby boy. She heard gun shots and probably saw him dead on the ground. She was stunned to see Alex standing over his body with that weapon and he shot her too. I can only imagine what she might have said to Alex. "What have you done?!" Alex probably admitted to shooting him and then immediately shot her. She was basically a lamb to slaughter in Alex's presence.
@@simmiesim321 besides the words that’s literally what happened as it’s already been proven and reported so she added words big deal. They were most definitely word. No one gets shot to death by their husband doesn’t say anything as it’s happening…..
The two biggest things for me are the missing blue shirt and the persistent lie about not being at the kennels. Those two factors alone make it a strong circumstantial case.
To me the missing shirt is even more important. He could even have "explained" gun powder residue saying he was hunting earlier that day - but not the kind of blood splatter or stains that probably were on the shirt.
"She was running to her baby." I got choked up. This prosecutor is great at painting a picture within the story. I'm disgusted by Alex. I can't even look at him. He lured them there to murder them.
@@kingayy9267 It was a slick move by the Prosecutor. But it was shady and unnecessary.. Let's not forget that Paul recklessly killed a young woman while drunk and had zero remorse. Alex is a murderer but son Paul does not fall far from the tree.
Also, he said he wanted Maggie to go with him to his Dad's, which was what he told her to get her out there, but he leaves without her. Why? Only way his actions make any sense is if it was all a ruse to lure her out there so he could kill her.
If his relationship with Maggie was good and blah blah! She was leaving him. He chased her down. Omg! The horror they must of went through! He's heartless!
She was going to divorce him. He also tried to change her will to make himself the sole beneficiary. The Murdaugh case podcast channel here on YT has a great video on it and breaking it down. Sickening but he did it and he had plenty or motive. I’m not sure why they didn’t talk about the will but it would have shown even bigger motive
Guilty. What more do you want? The key is him lying about not being there! Only reason he said he lied is because he knows he is caught. And what about the clothes he was wearing?…never to be seen again. Oh and wait, supposedly someone shot them less 2 minutes after he left?…and he didn’t hear 7 gunshots 😂. I can go on and on……
The missing clothes ... I guess there can be a lot of explanations for his behaviour. But not for the missing clothes. If you are innocent why would you get rid of your clothes? It's just too much.
There was possibly another motive that was mentioned. The attorney in the boating accident had given Alex a deadline in January 2020 to get him his financials or he would file charges against Maggie and Paul too on June 7th. I too believe that he is guilty. He likely would not have been charged without Paul’s Snapchat video forcing his confession to being there within minutes of their murders. I too believe that she was running to where Paul was. “He had planned it out for some time”- per his conversation with his sister-in-law.
Don’t you wonder if his siblings and Buster, deep down know he did it? And it is very likely that one of those brothers helped hide the clothes and the guns.
I agree. The drone video in the Netflix documentary shows John Marvin and Buster taking guns and other things from the house and putting them in John Marvin's truck. Hiding evidence in my opinion.
@@themonkster333 I’m a mom and if my child was being shot my instinct would be to run to him/her without thought to my own safety. When you become a mother, you can judge that. It’s certainly not a stretch to imagine. If you think that was pulling heart strings, just wait for the defense closing. He’s guilty as sin. If he was so worried about his family being targeted why didn’t he immediately have the cops go protect the other son?
@@cherylbelcher9542 but the DA used it to get a guilty verdict out of you. He did not know that. She could have been shot first for all we know. You will see tomorrow. 2 separate shooters and no one has EVER killed there family because they owe money and a liar.
Alex is the ultimate cowardly narcissist. His calmness amidst this never-ending storm for him doesn’t faze him. He sits in court like he’s at a college lecture. I hope prison snaps him out of this haze. He’s going to be well-loved there.
It happened just like Mr Waters described. Maggie and Paul are speaking from the grave with the help of Mr Waters, pointing their fingers to who did it. Excellent job.
This is all just so terribly sad. Such a tragedy for everyone. Nobody deserves that, no matter how flawed they are. Maggie and Paul didn't deserve this. Paul made mistakes in his life but he was drunk and all the group on the boat was drunk. When he wasn't drunk and his personality wasn't changed by alcohol, according to people who knew him, he could be a warm, funny, good person. The point is, his parents let him drink pathologically at that young age, and Alex was never a good father. Paul had money but not much else. The irony is, his life was in reality very sad: no real love, no guidance, no good role models, just money and addiction. And in the end, his father blew his brain out. This is just an unspeakable tragedy.
@Betty Wallace he's referring to the shirt Alex wore that gave a presumptive positive test for blood which is what SLED testified to to the grand Jury , however, in the subsequent more thorough tests that can take several weeks even months sometimes depending how busy the forensic laboratory is, came back as inconclusive, so although blood was present, not enough to safely convict on which is not to be MISTAKEN for no blood presence whatsoever as the person is attempting to infer at the top.
I think the whole fact that he lured both of them there that night he asked both of them to be there that is a little suspicious to me and I thought Maggie was supposed to go see his mom and dad with Alex and then he goes without her little suspicious, or he is definitely guilty I think he’s 100% guilty, and I hope the jury thinks so too.
@@janicerobinson4543 Alex has indications of serious personality flaws, one of which is lack of empathy, which has no bearing on the narrative of momma-saving-baby.
I found testimony heartbreaking when they described her role as a mother of boys was a challenge due to the guns, hunting, sports and more. Seems the laisse fare of no boundaries, early on lack of respect toward gun handling and safety, cleaning, and locking away.. I think this became a runaway train a busy regularity no different than some kids non stop use of games, x box etc. There was so much of this activity and too much of that has to have numbing effects after a while imo. No one made time to take care and clean their hunting kennels, what other they had. Not looking after their own property, it became the hired help for it all. Cooking, cleaning, errands, all of it. picked up after them. Whether clothes, laundry, dry cleaning, maintenance cooking, clean up on the daily someone else just picked up after their every move. Maybe this Homestead will receive blessings become a wild life refuge preserve. No fishing hunting or the like. Let nature heal organically, a memorial and blessing over this property . Let it heal.
If you're paying attention to his body language you can see around the 7:38 mark he is subconsciously shaking his head yes / and he has his jaw locked when the prosecutor is saying that she was running to save her baby. I pray that at the end of the day that Maggie and Paul will get justice ⚖️🙏🏽
@@mariacampana7764 I saw it. Even his dark eyes. He reminds me of a kid in the principle's office when he knows the truth has come out. We call it acting sheepish down where I am from. Someone passing by with the door open would look and say he is looking sheepish, and a rumor would be out that Alex was in trouble!!!!!
This is so disturbing...she sees her son being brutally killed...how sick can a person be...did he do that to make sure that she DID SEE her child, whom she gave birth, life to, go through this!! How horrific!! Then she suffers a terrible death ...malicious is the word the lawyer used...definitely sounds completely malicious!! Such an inhumane act!!
He knew Maggie was not great with guns and Paul was a greater threaten if not killed before Maggie ….physically and Paul knew how to handle guns and I’m sure if he saw his mom killed etc he would fight his dad or shoot him
@@sharigraff871 pretty sure the medical examiner said he shot Paul thru the shoulder and it exited out the head but ya He definitely shot Maggie in the head w the rifle.
Only in a crime of passion and hate, would they/he make it so personal- killing the son with a SHOTGUN IN THE HEAD removing his brain. When she runs towards him she is then shot, and she didn't die right away. They/ he wanted her to suffer. This is horrible, I hope he pays for his actions.
My friend's brother is an RN in a prison where murders are housed. They are remorseful just like Alex appears to be. Just because someone cries doesn't mean they didn't do it. I just wonder what the crime of passion was? Maybe his family was going down after all that went on on June 7th, so he was going to take the ones down that had partially caused their horrible folly. It's terrible.
He’s going to Prison regardless. He can’t run away from himself. Nights can be long when everything he did and everything he lost haunts what is left of his mind. Karma never loses track of where you are. It is all so sad, they had so much and it’s all gone.
He’ll find some way to twist it around in his mind to make it seem that he was victimized and had to defend himself from them…then develop a good story to spread.
As an Australian l have been watching from afar. What a EVIL EVIL LOWLIFE. Poor Maggie to go through soo much violence, hear and or watching him kill his son then being shot soo many times. It really breaks my heart.
Alex’s smugness is so disgusting. I feel like he’s sitting there annoyed to have to hear the prosecutor. And almost as if he thinks he’s going to walk. I absolutely believe that Alex is guilty. The defense bringing in their expert witnesses about how Paul and Maggie were shot and their description of angles were so off. And honestly why didn’t they just take the same type of gun and use a mannequin to reenact the shot to display how the shots would have impacted the victims? You can’t tell me there isn’t software out for that yet?
He very well may beat it. This prosecutor hasn’t shown motive. IT’s circumstantial and Alec knows it. That’s what he’s banking on. Creepy evil smug doosh that he is.

If Paul hadn't created the Snapchat video, AM would have kept denying being at the kennel. There's a poetic justice in Paul's final act, imo.
Thank God
Glad they cracked the phone and got that
Wow that is Poetic Justice dead kid and mother
I love the poetic justice. Paul brought him down!
Point. On
He didn't know about the video Paul took. If it were not for that, he may have never been charged. Financial crimes yes, but the murders, he almost pulled it off...especially with law enforcement in his pocket. Fascinating to watch but truly sad and gut wrenching.
I think he might have still been charged but chance of a guilty verdict would have been slim without the video.
He originally got a lot of slack because he's a prominent man in the area and very close to law enforcement officials and the courts.
Without the video and his lie it was a near perfect crime.
Paul won 🏆
Paul, solved his own murder
Very damning how he was not concerned about finding the "actual" killers nor worrying about other members in the family/household who might also be in danger.
Buster will soon be on trial for Murda of Stephen Smith
I truly hope this isn’t the way it actually happened. As a mother the thought of seeing my child laying dead like that😭😭I can only imagine the grief and fear she felt. Pure evil
It did happen just like that
Ambushed Paul in the kill zone
When Maggie came to rescue Paul
He slaughtered her
But not instantly
She had enough time
As did Paul to know who killed them
They knew
He knew
We know
At least she didn’t have to face that reality for a long time 🤷🏽♂️
No doubt in my mind. Alex murdaugh murdered his wife and son like it was nothing. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
I get the sense that Maggie was close to Paul and Alex is close to Buster. He saw Paul as a burden and will cost him 30 million from the lawsuit and see Maggie will be getting half of his money.
@@angiecoers6255 you are right about that I got that feeling too cause Alex seemed upset when he mentioned paul was his little detective. Also I heard the video on Alex’s phone you can hear Alex say to Paul, Paul now why did you get yourself involved.
Love the way Alex smirks during the argument. The jury sees that.
Jury sees him talking as the prosecutor describes the shooting. Seems a little insensitive to do it right at that moment, I know he's in court and has lawyers but come on
Hi tony” yes, he has dropped the ball there no “ Kleenex” to- day … ( I’m a subscriber on your channel)
@@Elegant_Sausage Maybe he didn’t want to hear it. I think I’d do anything to distract myself from hearing about a loved one receiving bullets.
Thank you! I thought I was the only one that noticed. Creepy.
Lawyer is amazing and covers every aspect of this case. Kudos to him!!!
He could be the next Dr Phil or judge lol he needs his own show
Paul’s kennel video is too good. Pointing the finger from beyond the grave
At exactly one minute into this, the prosecutor is asking why would he (AM) even have to think about lying if he were an innocent man. Look at AM shrug. Sickening.
Ugh I didn’t catch that on the first watch… Chilling.
He's innocent
@@annechris2677 wrong he’s actually guilty
GUILTY ASF!!!!
Oh my goodness! He is transparent, isn’t he? He really thinks he’s the smartest person in the room.
His reaction in the police car immediately after the event said everything to me. Controlled , focused …a man knowing this part was really important. I could not speak one sentence if I had witnessed what he had. Guilty as they come
Yes! I saw a video of him in the car talking to detectives and he starts comparing people they knew in common from different areas..I was like wtf!! This ain’t social hour..he couldn’t even play the roll
This was a horrible choice of escaping your bad choices in life.
i,m afraid Alex is a horrible man.
This option would never enter sane, normal people's minds.
Fortunately, him being a narcissist and a drug addict. Caused him to make mistakes. He wasn't as clever as he thought he was.
I think he will start bawling his eyes out when the defense gets up. After being so stoic during the prosecutions closing, that should tell the jurors something too. Excellent job, Mr. Prosecutor!!
Yes! Waters needed to tell a story. And he did a good job. So sad! But he told a very likely story of what happened.
Yes! What I’ve been saying. He will put his Theatrics on when that time comes. Today smirking but watch him morph when defense gets up. Not even crying about his Son and wife today. Totally Evil Con!
@Priscilla I don't think AM feels any guilt.
I just hope the prosecutor was good enough!
The prosecutor went on and on. Kind of boring and first of that they got the wrong person on the trial. It's not fair. No good job.
That man scares me. He is absolutely pure evil. Just take a look at that face.
I Agree He h as devil eyes If they find him not guilty I hope the other charges put him in prison long I think He is Guilty but having money hidden he will get away with this I pray he doesnt Maggie and Paul needs Justice Closing was Long but I Thought he did a great Job .
@@andreamirelli6305ikr, his eyes are eery af??😬😳
dude looks like a ghoul
He's reading out how the murders took place and Alex is just sitting there emotionless. He's got guilty written all over him.
He is either thinking he is spot on track, or how ruthless can this liar be?
Yes it's insane to watch him. What a cold blooded man.
Not even emotionless. He smirked many times!
Creighton Waters is bringing it home to the jury.
It’s a powerful closing statement that he is making.
I laughed out loud during his cross examination of Alex, when defense complained to the judge that this was a murder trial and Waters hadn't even used the word 'murder'.
It is so interesting that when AM was on the stand, he was terribly affectionate about his son Pau Pau and showing a lot of emotion like weeping. But now when the prosecutor was talking about how Paul had been shot, there was a cool indifference if not at times a look of irritation on AM's face.
So strange to visit your mama at 9:30pm on a Monday. No old person wants visitors at that time of night. If he was so concerned about her he would have gone to see her earlier in the day.
There are so many red flags to point out Alex's guilt. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Absolutely
And why not try to get your wife and son to go with you?
Very true. My mom is 94 and her bedtime is 8 pm.
Agreed. He would have gone by right after work. Not go home, then go back out at night.
If he had one ounce of remorse for slaughtering his family, or the slightest genuine love for them rather than for his own hide, he would have pled guilty, fallen back on his drug addiction and huge financial stress as his excuse, and saved himself and his family from this awful degradation, humiliation and pain.
But that’s narcissists for you, never believed HE could be exposed! What an evil man.
No wtf if he had any remorse he would’ve never done that in the first place
😂😂😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
It shuttered me during testimony when witnesses were spoken with on about the kennels the dogs how excited they got, letting them out to run, the reason for shock collars, and how wild it became when Alex brought a hen I believe their to be among the chickens n dogs to that effect, it was stated itvwas when Alex brought the hen the dogs activity went wild with craziness, to that effect. Why do that? Why if you are claiming the noise and calamity gets to his nerve, including sweating, why bring in the hen? Seems cruel
WHY WOULD HE PLEASE GUILTY TO SOMETHING HE DIDN’T DO!!!
@@youngstunnah3750 I agreee
How can he, as the defendant, sit there and listen to what a POS he is and not just start bawling and confess?
That one little dog video ruined all his careful plans.
Exposed him as a liar and put him at the scene moments before the murder.
Alex is a disgraceful human being. The only thing Maggie and Paul did wrong was to have him as a husband and father. It makes me sick to my stomach to think of how they died.
Paul killed Mallory Beach with his drunk boating, which was certainly wrong.
And this is why you would never be allowed on a jury haha... The DA really didn't prove this case. You can have your "idea" of what happened but that doesn't meet the burden of beyond a reasonable doubt. Also, following your idiotic logic - Paul wouldn't have existed without his father.
Paul killed a 19 year old girl....
hey if the other son had been there he'd be DEAD ALSO'
So i guess i just imagined Paul getting drunk and killing his friend then tryna blame it on another one smh
not saying he deserved it buuuut he wasnt someone who did 'no wrong' far from it
You can take any iPhone and throw it and it does light up. I've seen it in person when a phone was flung 20 feet.
I hope that justice will not fail Maggie and Paul.
lol paul got what he deserved
I was think that at 1at until I saw the Netflix movie and I just said I guess karma is a real thing because it changed my whole mindset after finding out the truth about their family they are all off
“ why would he even think to lie if he is an innocent man” LIKE WHY! put him under the jail
Some folks spend 30 years desperately looking for the perpetrator of the murder of their loved ones. This man didn’t mind doing that for 30 seconds. THAT was the biggest red flag in my book.
That was an incredible summing up by Mr Waters. Well done Sir !
The prosecutor absolutely cooked Alex.. Bravo 🙌🏻 👏🏼
Amen
He's doing a great job.
I can't believe people are being critical of the prosecution.
well believe it
Wow Mad RESPECT for you Mr Waters!!!OUTSTANDING!!!!
7:30. "She was running to her baby. Heard that shot and was running to her baby when she got mowed down". 7:43 Alex nods his head YES! Where is the emotional distress now?!? GUILTY!!
Her baby cried out.
He still has that smirk and talks to his lawyer. No emotion at all, not even a fake one…
She had to have screamed.
I don’t think he has money hidden
@@ellencleghorne5296if AM had any money at all it was confiscated. he was living on borrowed time for yrs.
Good Lord just look at the apathy on his face as the prosecution is detailing the murder timeline and the actions of a mother running to her child. Pure evil incarnate right there!
A very wicked man.
He doesn't know what to do. But not in an innocent way. In a guilty way. Like.. "Ah, this is awkward. They really know it now."
When he reaches to touch his chin you can see his fingers/hand is trembling, apart from his random moments of attempts to disregard what the prosecutor is saying. What a POS.
He’s TOAST and he knows it
Narcissist
Watching the Netflix series i truly think this whole family were intrinsically evil. Watching the aftermath of the boat crash was heartbreaking, seeing the Murdaughs at the hospital doing their best to intimidate the other people on the boat was nauseating to watch. They tried so hard to point the finger at Conner as the driver of the boat. The impact of their self serving greed.and and entitlement has destroyed the lives of so many people. Let’s hope he is found guilty for all of his evil deeds.
Agree no one is above the law . Very dangerous man addiction greed willimg to take his own family out . Glad he locked up for life
The ripple effect of this man, cultivating an arrogant family who did as they pleased, and then killing his wife and son, stealing, lying, killing, and covering up everything. Involving so many innocent people. He is a sociopath.
Yes the Netflix series is mind blowing!
Then this trial; it’s just all so shocking and sad
Psychopaths
“The whole family”?? The entire household? What’s your problem with Maggie??
I always thought that Paul was killed first because he would be the bigger threat. Maggie hearing those shots probably thought a gun accidentally went off, but to her surprise she was the next victim. So very sad.
Agreed...or when Alex first got shot he yelled "Why" or "Dad" when Alex then gave the final shot
And he knew that if he shot paul first Maggie would come running toward the danger whereas Paul would’ve possibly ran away to get help or a gun
And he knew that if he shot paul first Maggie would come running toward the danger whereas Paul would’ve possibly ran away to get help or a gun
I love that lawyer waters, so thorough and precise. May justice be served.
If Alex lied, so did Waters. Does that make him murderer?
This attorney is awesome and very smart justice for the victims
He's freaking amazing.
I got something thorough and precise for you
Zero emotion. A demon.
*This old world really does have monsters in it.* 😬
It always has. Always. Raise your children with discipline, consequences to learn and lots of joyful love.
💯
It looks like Alex is smirking when it's said that Maggie is running to her baby .
An innocent man would’ve pictured this between his wife and son and started crying
Of course. He's a monster
He actually smirked more today then at any other time. He seemed to be deriding most of the points the Sate was making. He also spent a lot of time making comments to his lawyers unlike before.
That smirking is a family trait.
Saw the same thing
How could anyone not break down crying hearing how your loved ones were killed ......unless you did it!!!!
He is truly evil. How could he sit there and not get emotional when the lawyer is talking about her baby, HIS baby!!! 👿
Alex murdaugh didn't care for Maggie or Paul. They were in his way financially. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
That's his baby and wife who got killed. Of course, he would get emotional. Don't you see how much weight he lost being to stress? If he did not kill, you should not be sending the wrong person to jail. I am sure Paul and his mom would not Rest In Peace.
Yes the Devil got into the mind Alex .
I mean if that's how you want to judge him, he got very emotional and crying during his testimony about finding them dead, and during the testimony of the crime scene evidence. I don't believe him for a minute, but he's good at showing emotion whether it's real or fake.
He was called out for being theatrical then boom! Waterworks stopped
Poor Buster, not really….he testified that Paul wasn’t driving the boat….same liar as DAD. Shows no emotion at all except anger….just like Alex. Pure evil 👿
Do you really know who was driving the boat? NOPE! Go read all the police reports and watch all bodycam video All
If Alex gets found guilty, all of his mothers assets go to Buster, according to Alex her assets are worth millions......and we know Alex wouldn't lie about that.....
Stay tuned for next season called “ Like Father , Like son “ !
@@anjanean oh please stop! Have some respect for the victims!
He said he didn’t Believe Paul was driving.
Rookie Lawyers Take Note, this summation from the prosecutor was brilliant, he hit every point and knocked it in with the previous point. Impressive!
If he had any remorse he would confess! He's not sorry at ALL! unless it's for himself....
I think Alex, personally hated his family. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
@@harperstacey9604 I agree with you. He is a Massive Narcissist, Psychopath. He didn’t care about anyone except his Disgusting self.
I totally agree.
Exactly! He would say, “I was JUST THERE, how could that happen?!?!” That’s what an innocent person would say immediately!!
Point. On. Yess
That’s what I thought. I was just there why lie and say you wasn’t there if you’re not hiding anything.
Claighten, You Guys rocked. Congratulations on getting your point across and your team spelling it out.
Like many, I was afraid He was going to walk. So glad the jury didn’t buy into his bs.after all He fooled an entire law firm.
I’d think if you were describing how my family was shot I wouldn’t have a smug look on my face, I’d be crying just to think about what happened.
Sure, but after a long trial he's heard these same things over and over. Plus when he does cry people say he's faking it.
@@marclaclear6628 he shouldn’t care what people think lol his wife and son were murdered
Watching Alex’s reaction to what the prosecutor says, he is reacting like a true sociopath.
Cold, so cold.
You may feel that way. How would you react to someone who is accusing you falsely? He knows the law and may feel helpless.
@Kajal Patel Realtor You obviously haven’t watched the entire trial. You’re pretty much embarrassing yourself. Alex is a stone cold killer.
Yes not one bit of true emotion. His wife and kid dead and look at that face.
He looks like a spoiled child being told he has to deal with the consequences of his actions and he is so mad that he got caught.
I'm so proud of that prosecutor he was on his game and said the right words. Thank you sir.
I wish the prosecutor stood closer to him so the jury would be looking at Alex and watching his reactions to what they are all hearing. His face is telling it all.
Yup!
Pure Evil 👿!
I’m proud of the prosecutors- Creighton Waters and Alan Wilson. I don’t know the names of the other state’s attorneys. Creighton made Maggie and Paul come back alive, if only for a short time.
Impactful. Gave me chills.
Malice, forethought and motive. Alex is a stone cold killer. I hope the jury saw through his theatrics and fake crying.
She was running to her baby. Whatever we may think of Paul, he was Maggie's baby boy. She heard gun shots and probably saw him dead on the ground. She was stunned to see Alex standing over his body with that weapon and he shot her too. I can only imagine what she might have said to Alex. "What have you done?!" Alex probably admitted to shooting him and then immediately shot her. She was basically a lamb to slaughter in Alex's presence.
Alex confess
You just made that whole thing up in your head even making up words !!! Wow thank god your not on the jury

The two biggest things for me are the missing blue shirt and the persistent lie about not being at the kennels.
Those two factors alone make it a strong circumstantial case.
And the guns used were family guns...
To me the missing shirt is even more important. He could even have "explained" gun powder residue saying he was hunting earlier that day - but not the kind of blood splatter or stains that probably were on the shirt.
Well, if you listened to this closing arguments there is a million as strong as that.
Spot on !!
Yesss 💯 %
"She was running to her baby."
I got choked up. This prosecutor is great at painting a picture within the story. I'm disgusted by Alex. I can't even look at him. He lured them there to murder them.
"She was running to her baby!" It is a great line. But also a rather strange line.
Since when is a 21 year old adult a "baby"?
RaUl 🤦🏻♀️ As a mother, it doesn’t matter how old my kid is. It’s still my baby.
@Raul
You'll always be your mother's baby.
I see what you're saying though, but he was appealing to the jurors' hearts.
@@kingayy9267 It was a slick move by the Prosecutor. But it was shady and unnecessary.. Let's not forget that Paul recklessly killed a young woman while drunk and had zero remorse. Alex is a murderer but son Paul does not fall far from the tree.
@@Better_Call_RaulTo most parents your youngest is always the baby.
Why would he need to call Maggie, he was just with her. Why would he text, heading to his Mom's when he had just seen her? What a fool of man.
Yes true he could have told her, "I'm going up to get the car and be right back down to get you to go to Mom's". But no he just texts her? Hmmmmm
Covering his tracks.
Could have brought it up at dinner..ijs
Also, he said he wanted Maggie to go with him to his Dad's, which was what he told her to get her out there, but he leaves without her. Why? Only way his actions make any sense is if it was all a ruse to lure her out there so he could kill her.
Creating a plausible story that he was "trying to reach her"... even though he was smelling her blown up scalp as he dialed.
Who forgets the last conversation they ever have with their wife?
It's amazing how the tears are not flowing in closing. This should be the time that he goes for a full Oscar with his acting.
If his relationship with Maggie was good and blah blah! She was leaving him. He chased her down. Omg! The horror they must of went through! He's heartless!
She was going to divorce him. He also tried to change her will to make himself the sole beneficiary. The Murdaugh case podcast channel here on YT has a great video on it and breaking it down. Sickening but he did it and he had plenty or motive. I’m not sure why they didn’t talk about the will but it would have shown even bigger motive
Agreed. He even said it was "Wonderful."
Agree She had enough of him Picking up her dog to run and he pitched up
Guilty. What more do you want? The key is him lying about not being there! Only reason he said he lied is because he knows he is caught. And what about the clothes he was wearing?…never to be seen again. Oh and wait, supposedly someone shot them less 2 minutes after he left?…and he didn’t hear 7 gunshots 😂. I can go on and on……
The missing clothes ... I guess there can be a lot of explanations for his behaviour. But not for the missing clothes. If you are innocent why would you get rid of your clothes? It's just too much.
Yes, lied about being there and lied about killing them.
Agree
@@brittaniedarrisaw3393 also 48 hrs on U-tube has a documentary.
@@mazie7952 I will be watching it tonight!! I need all the details!
There was possibly another motive that was mentioned. The attorney in the boating accident had given Alex a deadline in January 2020 to get him his financials or he would file charges against Maggie and Paul too on June 7th.
I too believe that he is guilty. He likely would not have been charged without Paul’s Snapchat video forcing his confession to being there within minutes of their murders. I too believe that she was running to where Paul was. “He had planned it out for some time”- per his conversation with his sister-in-law.
I hope this haunts Alex the rest of his life.
It won't he is a sociopath
It won't. Evil doesn't cry.
Narcissist’s don’t have feelings
I cried when he said running to her baby. Alex has no soul.

Facts not in evidence
Yea,and neither did Paul the night he killed Mallory Beach ..laughing in the hospital while he was getting treated ?
You know she did
As any mother would
So sad
Don’t you wonder if his siblings and Buster, deep down know he did it? And it is very likely that one of those brothers helped hide the clothes and the guns.
I agree. The drone video in the Netflix documentary shows John Marvin and Buster taking guns and other things from the house and putting them in John Marvin's truck. Hiding evidence in my opinion.
I havent seen Randy in courtroom lately???!!
Totally agree
That’s the line that got me! She’s running to her baby! I burst into tears for her. This trial has exhausted me and I’m not even involved.
Yess. Soo. Interesting
Why would the DA have to Lie and pull on your coat strings if he is guilty. The DA was not there and he made all that up.
@@themonkster333 I’m a mom and if my child was being shot my instinct would be to run to him/her without thought to my own safety. When you become a mother, you can judge that.
It’s certainly not a stretch to imagine.
If you think that was pulling heart strings, just wait for the defense closing. He’s guilty as sin. If he was so worried about his family being targeted why didn’t he immediately have the cops go protect the other son?
@@cherylbelcher9542 but the DA used it to get a guilty verdict out of you. He did not know that. She could have been shot first for all we know. You will see tomorrow. 2 separate shooters and no one has EVER killed there family because they owe money and a liar.

Good closing by the prosecution. I cannot imagine him being found innocent. Never before has anyone been proven SO GUILTY.

Alex is the ultimate cowardly narcissist. His calmness amidst this never-ending storm for him doesn’t faze him. He sits in court like he’s at a college lecture. I hope prison snaps him out of this haze. He’s going to be well-loved there.
Excellent job closing I couldn’t have said it better
Heart breaking. He slaughtered the son and mother and they knew it in the last moment of their breaths.🙏 All Alex wants is to get away with it now
Body language says a lot. Check out 6:38 Does Alex nod his head yes after the prosecutor says what happened?! Wow...
It happened just like Mr Waters described. Maggie and Paul are speaking from the grave with the help of Mr Waters, pointing their fingers to who did it. Excellent job.
I agree 🥹
Also, Murdaugh underestimated the smartness of a "smart" phone and OnStar data , which helped the prosecutor tie in all events minute-by-minute.
@dr3v1l1993literally minutes. He didn’t even get to send the video. That’s amazing!!!
This is all just so terribly sad. Such a tragedy for everyone. Nobody deserves that, no matter how flawed they are. Maggie and Paul didn't deserve this. Paul made mistakes in his life but he was drunk and all the group on the boat was drunk. When he wasn't drunk and his personality wasn't changed by alcohol, according to people who knew him, he could be a warm, funny, good person. The point is, his parents let him drink pathologically at that young age, and Alex was never a good father. Paul had money but not much else. The irony is, his life was in reality very sad: no real love, no guidance, no good role models, just money and addiction. And in the end, his father blew his brain out. This is just an unspeakable tragedy.
@Betty Wallace sled didn’t lie
😢
@@ptycostadeleste5448 Murdaugh lied that he wasn't at the kennel 🤥🤔 Wonder why?🧐🔫
@RussellConor-Perfectly said.💔
@Betty Wallace he's referring to the shirt Alex wore that gave a presumptive positive test for blood which is what SLED testified to to the grand Jury , however, in the subsequent more thorough tests that can take several weeks even months sometimes depending how busy the forensic laboratory is, came back as inconclusive, so although blood was present, not enough to safely convict on which is not to be MISTAKEN for no blood presence whatsoever as the person is attempting to infer at the top.
Oh what a tangled web we weave
When first we practice to decive.
I think the whole fact that he lured both of them there that night he asked both of them to be there that is a little suspicious to me and I thought Maggie was supposed to go see his mom and dad with Alex and then he goes without her little suspicious, or he is definitely guilty I think he’s 100% guilty, and I hope the jury thinks so too.
She may have not been a good parent but running to her baby , breaks my heart
It's supposed to break your heart. There is no evidence of that happening, it's simply part of the narrative to evoke the emotion you felt.
ME too i cried
@@stevehartwell1861Then why was Alex not crying ?
@@janicerobinson4543 Alex has indications of serious personality flaws, one of which is lack of empathy, which has no bearing on the narrative of momma-saving-baby.
I found testimony heartbreaking when they described her role as a mother of boys was a challenge due to the guns, hunting, sports and more. Seems the laisse fare of no boundaries, early on lack of respect toward gun handling and safety, cleaning, and locking away.. I think this became a runaway train a busy regularity no different than some kids non stop use of games, x box etc. There was so much of this activity and too much of that has to have numbing effects after a while imo. No one made time to take care and clean their hunting kennels, what other they had. Not looking after their own property, it became the hired help for it all. Cooking, cleaning, errands, all of it. picked up after them. Whether clothes, laundry, dry cleaning, maintenance cooking, clean up on the daily someone else just picked up after their every move. Maybe this Homestead will receive blessings become a wild life refuge preserve. No fishing hunting or the like. Let nature heal organically, a memorial and blessing over this property . Let it heal.
If you're paying attention to his body language you can see around the 7:38 mark he is subconsciously shaking his head yes / and he has his jaw locked when the prosecutor is saying that she was running to save her baby.
I pray that at the end of the day that Maggie and Paul will get justice ⚖️🙏🏽

How horrific!! Then she suffers a terrible death ...malicious is the word the lawyer used...definitely sounds completely malicious!! Such an inhumane act!!

What is odd to me is he called Maggie to tell her he was leaving when he could’ve told her a few minutes before when he was wish them…
Only in a crime of passion and hate, would they/he make it so personal- killing the son with a SHOTGUN IN THE HEAD removing his brain. When she runs towards him she is then shot, and she didn't die right away. They/ he wanted her to suffer. This is horrible, I hope he pays for his actions.

I just wonder what the crime of passion was? Maybe his family was going down after all that went on on June 7th, so he was going to take the ones down that had partially caused their horrible folly. It's terrible.
He’s going to Prison regardless. He can’t run away from himself. Nights can be long when everything he did and everything he lost haunts what is left of his mind.
Karma never loses track of where you are.
It is all so sad, they had so much and it’s all gone.
He’ll find some way to twist it around in his mind to make it seem that he was victimized and had to defend himself from them…then develop a good story to spread.
This depends on which one. He's fine with a federal country club. Murder requires state.
and eventually it will also dawn on his son buster what he did, so he will be alone in prison!
As an Australian l have been watching from afar. What a EVIL EVIL LOWLIFE. Poor Maggie to go through soo much violence, hear and or watching him kill his son then being shot soo many times. It really breaks my heart.
The SMIRK on Murdock's face when the prosecutor says "she runs to her baby". He did that to punish her I feel like.
I am glad the Prosecutors are bringing up all the things in the timeline that i was thinking are smoking guns!
Why doesn’t he just stand up and say” OK, YOU GOT ME”!!
Never did he show one ounce of sorrow, how can you sleep at night! Pure evil 🦹♀️
waiting to see if he brings out the water works when his defense team goes up to preach tomorrow.
I don't know if he did it, but if he did, he can sleep perfectly. Casey Anthony said she sleeps perfectly.
Alex’s smugness is so disgusting. I feel like he’s sitting there annoyed to have to hear the prosecutor. And almost as if he thinks he’s going to walk. I absolutely believe that Alex is guilty. The defense bringing in their expert witnesses about how Paul and Maggie were shot and their description of angles were so off. And honestly why didn’t they just take the same type of gun and use a mannequin to reenact the shot to display how the shots would have impacted the victims? You can’t tell me there isn’t software out for that yet?
I am a third party and was annoyed to hear the prosecutor as he was targeting him. That's not fair.
he thinks he has fooled some jurors
Because a mannequin doesnt accurately represent a human brain and skull goofball
He very well may beat it. This prosecutor hasn’t shown motive. IT’s circumstantial and Alec knows it. That’s what he’s banking on. Creepy evil smug doosh that he is.
I think he's guilty but I think he might get away with it.
There is not one friend or loved one that he didn't lie to. Not a single person close to him knew who he was.
Absolutel monster
He kinda has a smirk on his face today throughout the closing arguments (shaking my head)
