Wow that is weird to see the panel with their legs on.

[@DChrisHagaman]

Right???? lol

[@Oceangirl_505]

The Behavior Panel are the absolute best.

[@begitteolsen3784]

I totally agree!

💯

[@caroll6541]

#thebehaviourpanel 💯% the Best!

[@laurainsley2907]

Absolutely! Four brilliant gentlemen, we are so blessed! They saved my life, I was living with a very manipulative, abusive person. Their videos helped me to comprehend what I was dealing with and to get out safely.

[@george-annwood7526]

If I saw my son in the condition that Paul was in when he was “FOUND“ there is no way I would even be able to talk, much less, sit still and talk to someone! I would be insane with grief.

[@user-qw7ql5zx7k]

[@debramiller3165]

Exactly! An elephant tranquilizer wouldn’t have helped. Sad!

[@lynnhauenstein4136]

I just don't understand why Alex killed them...to what advantage for Alex...no life insurance. I've never heard what advantage Alex gained..

[@TheBella2u]

He would’ve been better off to have said I’m too distraught to be interviewed right now. But he thought he was immune from consequence.

[@andyschool]

I'd see that too. Do my best in Detroit as trauma ICU RN w youths shot in head, dressings oozing more than pinkish fluids bc brain matter was included, I'd do whatever I could to protect the loved ones from seeing this while we kept the individual alive w high powered IV drips, 10-12 of em along w ventilator, monitors into brain... while trying to help parent stand. For him to think of looking at that phone at all, was strictly to explain why his prints or DNA would've been on that phone! Disgusting liar.

[@angelafpagano1605]

When he is pretend sobbing, I thought he sounded like he was laughing.

[@sandybeveridge5692]

When I really laugh, that’s how I sound!

[@bonniehitchcock]

The snorting and sobbing almost makes me laugh. Such an act!

[@ErinAbou]

This is what one of the jurors said following their guilty verdict. He produced snot but no tears came out. Just slobbering and snorting.

[@sarahwieland3243]

U watch this man and there was never a single tear, not one. U can’t even see water around his eyes. I would’ve been a puddle in that seat. Something was really off.

[@rosa8680]

No tears? No tears.

[@BriarDeHaven]

When Alex sobs, it honestly sounds like laughter to me. The only thing I felt watching that was extreme skepticism. Behavior Panel, love you guys!

[@MissRed92837]

Yes, it sounds more like laughter and then there are no tears.

[@koebiqueen5386]

Mark, before we get to that, let’s talk about those red socks. You are the coolest.

[@theVanishingGladiator]

Hahaha!! Love it!!

[@VoiceofReason515]

He never says to them "Who the hell do you think would do this to my family"???

[@ErinAbou]

Yes, and he never asks for security for his other son or himself. He’s not that worried about a return of the “real killers”, reminds me of OJ and Scott Peterson.

[@ockmf]

Exactly! He should be asking Who did this to my family???

[@MissRed92837]

Everyone reacts differently in stress situations. But yes, I would also mention something about “who did that”?

[@MargaretHerman-nt9sm]

Since first viewing this interview, I've been curious about Murdoch's statement regarding Paul's phone "popping out of his pocket" and how he tried "fiddling with it". Why? I don't believe if I found two family members murdered that I'd even notice a phone no less what to do with it other than dial 911.

[@jamievanskiver8380]

Yes! Exactly! He says "I started to try and do something with it thinking maybe and then I.... Thinking maybe what? What was he going to do with it? There's a lot of things that make no sense in his statement!

[@irisramsey62]

Quite a horrible way to try and clear Paul's name!! Just horrible that Paul's blood cried from the ground and did all he could do to let those left behind know who the last person 💔 I saw 👀 before my departure 😢😢

[@Rxeryus]

⁠@@jamievanskiver8380I seem to recall it was alleged to he was checking who Paul had been in contact with that night

[@theVanishingGladiator]

Alex knew he was in for the fight of his life, and part of that fight rested in Paul’s phone; and we know how that ended. Also, the young man with whom Paul was speaking, did tell authorities the following morning that Alex’s (unmistakable) voice had been heard in the background.

[@juliefreds4594]

I’ve learned so much about human behavior watching this channel. I used their techniques to catch my bf cheating on me even though I tried to deny the signs at first. It saved me from wasting my time though!!! I wish I could thank them!!!❤

[@tammybrodeur4160]

I’m so happy that you will still be available on you tube! Some of us don’t subscribe to regular ‘tv’ channels anymore! ❤

[@RiverPaisley]

This is great. Love seeing you guys out in the wild.

[@user-ft4bz8xz6c]

Love you guys so much ❤ I’m happy to see you in a different setting

[@Julie-md3og]

Having watched you guys for a while I sensed that you were a bit unsure of how to present yourselves. My feeling is maintain your own individual uniqueness and not think that one of you has a better style than the other. It is your differences in style and your own individual perspectives, your natural humour and relaxation that give the show its uniqueness. A Greg is a Greg, a Scott is a Scott, a Mark is a Mark and a Chase is a Chase. It is the groundedness of this formula that makes it special

[@Nickiechell]

Scott is an awesome presenter! He is so animated. Loved it

[@mattgiant8836]

My favourite Panel! :)

[@CrimeCon]

Good choice!

[@jansims1659]

These men are all legends. They are so intelligent and so interesting to hear. I have learned how to deal with certain people because of Scott, Greg, Chase and Mark ‼️ I am a long time fan of this channel.

[@cathybestlercurtis]

My dad is in the hospital. He called a week and a half ago saying that he was done. He wanted me to call the priest because Dad had questions. I was doubled over and sobbing. Years ago when my brother in law died I was also sobbing my eyes out. This guy!

[@b-luz]

Mark talks with his hands with more gusto than an Italian! Le emozione!

[@priscilabarros859]

He invited to go to the house so they could go and visit her Mom together. Suddenly he leaves to his Mom's house without her. It doesn't add up.

[@deborahpoole9710]

Yes thought that from the very start of this. He asked her to come to go with him to visit parents then never mentions her going or leaving with him to go there. Yup.

[@angelarose9575]

Well, his dad ended up in the hospital, so I think plans changed bc of that. I still think it was a trap, but that did change from when he first asked her to come to Moselle.

[@valaries.5944]

You 4 are the ultimate teachers. You're relatable. Have a sense of humor. Thanks gentlemen!

[@jeffreyg4999]

I think it's all chalked up to. His life long entitlement attitude. He made so many dumb mistakes. He didn't think anyone would actually question his actions or explanation

[@bethewalt7385]

I don't believe he led a life of dumb mistakes, he over time made one selfish choice after arrogant decision....these weren't mistakes, he didn't order the wrong pizza, he made selfish, deadly, killing choices

[@liv.l.]

Greg, upcoming can you elaborate on “if you caused trauma-it had a place to go” and what that looks like vs if they didn’t. Freaking golden.

[@elizabethpayne53]

That caught my attention, too. Great question!

[@liv.l.]

@@elizabethpayne53 im assuming it’s avoidance anxiety energy/behavior. But Greg is a mastermind on “bad characters”. And his acting out examples are brilliant.

[@matteoedwardes2876]

He also backfilled info in case they asked why his prints were on Paul’s phone. “Ohh uhhh I tried to tak…roll him over and the phone fell out..”

[@kyeoberover8335]

Such a delight to see you all together in real life..as my understanding is , this has rarely happened. I never heard how the polaris wheel track ran over Maggie. I always thought..he shot his son..Maggie came running around the corner screaming..he shot her..completely lost his shit and drove over her to get back to the main house..all the walking in the house..trying to calm down and work out what to do next.

[@nancystevens7447]

The SLED officer who said “Mr. Murdaugh looked very clean when they arrived at the crime scene” got my attention. There’s a lot of blood everywhere and he was on top of the victims but soooo clean after. Guilty,Guilty and Guilty.He even touched them both,Guilty……

[@6111tbyrd]

I know people like that who like lying. I'm like why are you lying when you know I know the truth. A. BECAUSE I LIKE IT.

[@bostonrachel8956]

😊 I love Mark how you give the explanation of the trees and the guy who made this pictures with the little squares and what he would do was not look at the leaves but see the spaces between leaves. And that makes perfect sense to me I would often explain to people that when you're dealing with a real liar and someone not only who is showing you through everything else but if you actually listen to their stories you will hear the truth come out between their lies. That's almost confusing or perhaps doesn't make sense but when you stay consistent with learning to understand all of this it's exactly like what you just said!

[@nadiazahroon6573]

Alex lured Maggie back to the house.

[@junehawkins6178]

My cousin was 24 years old when was shot in the head by 4 guys robbing her store (a long time ago). My uncle fought through the police to get to her. It was so horrific. Until the day he passed on, he was NEVER the same. When I saw this video, I knew in my heart that Alex was guilty. He DID NOT ACT like a father/ husband who just lost his family.

[@NicolaMaxwell]

I’m fairly new to you guys but I enjoyed this and seeing you all move around. ❤ you all. Mark❤. I feel I’m learning a lot.

[@Bowdy_Up]

From the very beginning, it always stood out to me that he complemented the dispatcher. That’s odd to me that anyone would take the time to do that in the middle of describing their wife and child’s death. Afterwards, he doesn’t say that he and Paul have a wonderful relationship he says that Paul and Maggie have a wonderful relationship. He says that he and Maggie have a wonderful relationship. But when referring to Paul and himself, it’s only as good as it can be, there’s resentment in that statement. Later on when he got on the stand, he said that whoever killed Paul and Maggie had hatred in their heart, he hated Paul for what Paul did. and not just because Paul did something stupid and irresponsible but because his house was about to come crashing down.

[@ElizabethWarrenYeahYeah]

I thought he was laughing, not crying

[@ClaudeS39]

And the Oscar for best performance goes to Murdoch. That cop wasn’t buying it.

No real tears, no snot, he’s trying but it’s not happening. Yea Paul’s brain is scattered and he might have a pulse.
