Alex Murdaugh Breaks Down in Tears While Ex-Best Friend Testifies Against Accused Family Killer

Alex Murdaugh broke down in tears while his former best friend, Chris Wilson, testified in the disgraced lawyer's family murder trial Thursday. Wilson appeared emotional while detailing the moment he learned Maggie and Paul Murdaugh were shot to death. Wilson then went on to explain how the murders distracted him from receiving repayment of settlement money from his once-trusted friend and colleague.

This is an example of how sin will take you further than you wanted to go. He was in so deep. The boating accident was the beginning of the end. I believe his family would be alive had it not been for the boating accident. It is possible that he grieves for them and that he regrets his actions, but his jail house calls indicate otherwise. He doesn’t bring either of them up in conversation, and lacks any signs of grief. So this rocking and putting his head down doesn’t convince me. It doesn’t seem real. I would be grieving so hard, and I would be angry. Angry enough to have somebody looking for a killer. A private investigator for sure.

thats what the devil looks like when he weeps

[@annasz4321]

Why Alex didn't say who did this to my wife and my son... Alex didn't scream who did it and why?? he is playing a game...

[@graciegolden2290]

The love of money. Only God knows to what extent a person will go when feeling cornered in their mind.

[@sashaann9679]

Alex crying while knowing that he is who caused all this. My goodness, he's the devil

[@donadams7943]

You can be sure that if there was any way that Alex could throw this friend under the bus and have him blamed for the killings instead of himself he would have done it.

[@mindaelliott9576]

This is the first time he actually shed real tears.

[@Ripthatshitsfr]

Anyone born in his situation is set up for success without any effort. The fact that he messed up his life this badly is unbelievable

[@TSVitanza]

We all want friends like Chris Wilson.

[@gaylemc2692]

Alex didn't have this visceral reaction when he was testifying without the jury.

[@doctorross1470]

He was bobbing to Lizzo in his air pods😂😂😂

Hahahhahahaha

[@EuphemiaGrubb]

I've never been able to cry and be able to continue to eat at the same time. Quite a feat! Well done Alex!

[@bobe3250]

He didn't ask because they are used to hiding the truth

[@cutiepie5710]

Listening in silence and can’t say one word is tough. Especially when the truth or lie is being told. Listening to Chris talk about how close they were all through high school and so own breaks my heart. This man had so much faith in Alex and he didn’t deserve to be treated like that by Alex. Friends like that don’t come around to often. Then their kids close relationship is destroyed. Alex hurt to many peoples for many years. Alex luck ran out and now it’s time to pay for all your crimes.

[@JessicaDaBestica]

I agree! ❤ regardless however of what Alex did do before, I do feel he obviously HIGHLY REGRETS and if he could REDO it all I am more than sure he would.

[@cutiepie5710]

@@JessicaDaBestica most definitely i think the same way. If he can only go back in time. I also think that’s why he breaks down whenever someone speak about Maggie and Paul. To much guilt written all over his face.

[@TawnyC_]

Breakdown? Tears? Where?

[@Loni-044]

He had a lovely friend in that guy😢

[@butchershoppequartet8690]

His psychopathic ego is crying because he has lost the respect he craves from every single person in his life and the world is watching his downfall. That could be one of the worst punishments for a narc, playing out right there.

[@the-finn]

He bobs his head up and down but I never see him wiping his eyes or blowing his nose. He can't shed 1 tear for his murdered wife and son!?

[@juliefox1584]

He’s a narcissist, and only cares about himself. His character is being uncovered, and a lot of people are realizing how manipulative he really was. He can’t cry it’s never really cried.

[@tiredbanti7412]

Alec destroyed so many lives. What makes this more sad HE killed his own wife and child. What a betrayal 😡😡😡😡

[@Amy-is3ss]

Really not much evidence of him being guilty imo

[@deedeegray7489]

@@Amy-is3ss obviously you've not watched this trial for the past 13 days like most of us on here have !!!!!

@@deedeegray7489 I’ve watched it all.

[@randys8974]

Alex looks like he's aged quite a bit since the beginning of this trial.

[@velvetgardenia]

My heart breaks for Chris.

[@sloan_005]

So great his sentencing / trip to prison took place on the anniversary of Mallory’s body being found. God is good.

[@catecurl3790]

This man is many good things. My 🤎 goes out to him in his grief and sadness.

[@warrenbates2949]

This confirms my opinion of lawyers especially backwoods ones.

[@betterstill100]

Apparently they don’t collect backwoods fees.

[@romaworks8248]

The hearts that man has broken is amazing. Who can fathom what he is capable of.

[@norton2757]

Money has ruined more friendships.

[@devinirving5503]

Sad to hear how much his friend really cared about murdaughs family.

[@frosting6439]

How does someone like Alec have any friends at all? Were they all just fake relationships? The man clearly has no empathy or love for anyone.

[@LivingLifeOutWest]

He sure did have a lot of loyal friends. 😲

[@irisdown9758]

He was just very good at being all things to everybody. He had an enormous repertoire of acting skills how else did his closest friend not know he was a drug addict? If he was that is. Will evidence be presented?

[@juliefox1584]

Spot on. He’s a shell of a man, and for that to be uncovered, his little way of life for decades was about to be uncovered.

[@pamelamorgan7354]

He can be charming and manipulate, I’m sure.

[@zeebro7688]

People Revere status, money and power. That's how people like Murdaugh continue to be protected and hide. Look up not sideways.

[@mariekauhi9034]

Does anyone know who the woman is sitting over Alex's left shoulder is?

[@unapologeticallyme7664]

I'm wondering the same

[@CherryPi314]

Alec is getting what’s coming to him, his personal and professional life being torn limb from limb- as it should be. But this break up and side by side of former best friends is soul crushing. His best friend was a SOLID. & Alec blindsided everyone..& now the reality of it is coming to the forefront & hes now acting with real true emotion. The realest up in your face one could ever get. However you look at it, it’s tragic for all

[@pathway777]

Lord have MERCY on all of us. The devil come to steal kill and destroy.

[@mr_rn6549]

I wish the prosecution was kinder when speaking to their own witness.

[@marieslabbert6009]

This man had so many really genuine friends and he stabbed themall in the back.

[@glendapate1960]

This is as guilty as he sit there trying to cry.😡

[@audreydaleski1067]

He has one problem. He can't do an edit undue, bring back his wide and son. This isn't about little Alex learning a life lesson, awe. This is about murder.

[@teacuppug8337]

No tears … he wipes his eyes … but there aren’t any tears.
