    The reasons we don’t want this to end is because so many injustices have been committed to so many people as brought out by his own defense counsel and by his own admissions. We the (little) People of this United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, (and) establish Justice, would like to believe in our Constitution and see Justice prevail for these victims. The trial may have lasted six weeks (which would have been enough in and of itself) but this story, along with each splintering vein that goes in every direction imaginable from the core of this family, has been broadcast on every network, social media platform and written national media known to our great country. In a nutshell, we’re invested.

    Why was this case covered up for 8 years? Why was the medical examiner not fired? She stated that she would put whatever they wanted her to put on the death certificate. One Officer stated that it was a homicide, and it went on deaf ear. So why should they trust SLED when SLED moved to protect the Murdaugh's in every way possible, being so apologetic, etc. even in this case. That does not say very much for them. The whole town and surrounding towns feared the Murdaughs, so that speaks volumes. I am sorry for their loss, but what goes around, comes around. Bottom Line. We are living in the time of Revelation - everything will be revealed - the good, the bad and the ugly. That is Universal Law and man has no control over it. The time is nigh. There is no turning back.

    Its my opinion that this law firm and all past cases to which they were involved should be completely investigated by an out of state body. Especially insurance cases.
    His type of arrogance was obviously fostered in an environment of privilege and self entitlement, not only in his personal life but also in his work environment.
    There was way too much power in one family for too long.
    If further misdeads are found within this firm, then the lawyers involved should be disbarred or sanctioned depending on the degree of malfeasance. The firm then should be dissolved and not just allowed to rebrand.
    Any lawyers who were associated with the disolved firm could not practice within another firm going forward.
    Given Buster Murdaugh has already been kicked out of the University of Southern Carolina for plagiarism and his family, apparently attempting to have him readmitted by paying a sum of monies, he obviously has this same attitude of entitlement and should be barred from attending any University for the pursuit of a law degree.

    Things need to be cleaned up in SC financial loopholes AM used!!
    Eg. Why are insurance payout amounts only communicated through a lawyer! AM never told his victims and insurance companies never seem to send documents independently of lawyer! This was hugely advantageous to AM to deceive his clients!!

Anyone? Also, thank you AG Wilson for giving Steven Smith’s death a hard look and how the Murdaughs could be responsible. 🙏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼

    Would love to know the evidence they found on Smith murder at Moselle. It may be from someone’s phone(Alex, Paul, or Buster) but have no idea what it could be.
    Surely, there were not incriminating text or pics still on a phone. I am thinking the information was found when they got data dump from carrier, and it had been deleted from the phone(s). I also would think any peering into Busters phone would be limited to the time of murders to check his whereabouts as routine to eliminate him from Paul’s and Maggie’s murders

    2 things. 1: From everything I’ve watched and read about this case, the dead wife and son were about as disgusting and immoral as the living husband and son. The only difference was Alex ultimately directed violence inside the family instead of elsewhere.
    2: The DA talks about retrieving the financial losses of the victims of Alex’s fraud. But the CFO of the Alexs law firm testified that the other partners in the firm all coughed up and paid back the victims in every single case she uncovered except one (and that money was in escrow with the courts until the legal ownership of the money was determined. Why did they pay? “Because Alex stole the clients money”. The only real financial victims were the law partners of Peters, Murdaugh, Parker, Eltzroth & Detrick.
