Self promotion and turning it around to make it about herself. Does she hope to sell them? If not, why make a TV appearance making out she’s suffering some trauma’ after seeing the photos. Everyone is pretending to be a victim nowadays

[@u.synlig]

This is called ‘putting out feelers’. This woman will not know how to contact the Murdaugh’s family members directly. By allowing a South Carolina news station to air her story (and being discreet, by showing only 2 of the images available), she enables the family to reach out to her, via the news station, and to arrange return of the photos... doubtlessly with the offer of a reward. Win-win.

Are we that human conditioned to let people tromp all over the world and then continue to bow down to these individuals. Good grief this family has been in power for generations!!!! Finders keepers, and if she can get a boat load(pun intended)of money from the sale, then more power to her. She has ABSOLUTELY no obligation, to anyone but herself. Whoever ran the auction should have checked the cameras. I think it’s meant to be. If there were anything incriminating it would be in LE possession.
