[@MrTargetone]

Without Cash being there, Paul would not have taken the video...without Bubba, Alex would not be heard on Paul's video. Thank God for Cash and Bubba!

[@MrBangbangjim]

So right!! Things would have been so different if that video wasn't taken or hadn't been found. Imagine the surprise and adrenaline flowing when that video was discovered.

[@alybaker1]

Thank God indeed!

[@Songbirdstress]

And it was taken because Paul was close to his friends.

[@cosmoplakat9549]

Also, if Maggie had gotten home when Alex thought she'd get home (7 pm-ish), he might have done them in before that video was taken. But she didn't get home till ~8:15. He lost that 1.25 hours of alibi time there.

[@vernareed2692]

Big Mac I have wondered if alex had done something to the dog's tail to get Paul out there.

[@caroldomenicucci8111]

Its hard to think that Paul knew his father shot him, and hard to think Maggie knew her husband killed their child, and she knew it was her husband that took her life.

Why doesn’t anyone ever bring up the fact that he told the 911 dispatcher “they were SHOT badly” The point is that if he was on scene in the near dark for only 19 seconds and there’s no firearm in sight: how does he know they were SHOT and not bludgeoned to death?!

[@minomokwa744]

VERY good point ! Did not think of that .... thanks for bringing that up. That is aaaabsolutely accurate ... and: how did he tell the sister of Megs (Mrs. Proctor) when she asked: "did Meggi suffer " HOW did he say: NO ... this disgusting murderer

[@platinumpisces8120]

VTX88: BINGO!!! I said the exact same thing!! How would he have known the means of what caused their injuries. 19 seconds or 30 seconds is definitely not enough time to look at 2 people and tell exactly what happened to them!!

[@jerseyshoreliving_NatalieMal]

I thought the same through out ask him how did he know they were shot??

[@remycallie]

When folks on the internet come up with a brilliant observation that somehow every law enforcement officer or member of the prosecution missed, there's usually a reason for it. All of these people -- Alex, the cops who responded, virtually every one of these prosecutors -- is a hunter. They've seen hundreds of animals shot to death. Maggie's body was riddled with bullets. Paul had the back of his head blown off. You didn't have to get close to them to know how they died. Trust me -- if they'd been poisoned and Alex immediately said "they were poisoned" the police would have picked up on it. This was not something they "failed to bring up" in court.

[@toddrobinson4228]

Good point

It was by the grace of God, that the kennel video surfaced, that the blackout shells surfaced, and certainly that the jury had eyes to see and ears to hear. There was also a lot of prayer about justice and truth prevailing.

The same 'grace of God' that allowed Maggie & Paul to be murdered so horrifically.

[@jeniferhermann909]

Absolutely a fantastic team, including the others that aren't at this interview.

[@thomasbullock6934]

“Family Annihilator.” I had NEVER heard of that description of a Murderer. Prosecutor NAILED it. Alex KNEW that Creighton had given the right name for the Monster, within himself. I saw the Monster too, as Alex answered Creighton’s question. NEVER will forget that moment, in the Trial.

[@tlammsavage6809]

Omg. I saw it too. After Creighton asked if he was family annihilator Alex answered. Then a few seconds later Alex looked at creighton with murderous glare. I could actually see it and it scared me.

Thank you! 🙏🏼 From the Netherlands 🇳🇱

[@KClark-xe3wb]

One of the things that I found incredible and made me question his entire story, was him saying he checked their pulses. Your son is lying face down with the back of his head gone and his brain lying at his feet. Nobody can survive without an intact brain and if the crime scene was this bloody you’d have blood all over you if you bent over to take a pulse.

[@jillfurman8904]

No one wants to admit their loved one is dead. He is saying he chec he checked their pulse bc he just couldn't believe that he 'gotten reL good"

[@agni5390]

@41:51 I think Alex KNEW Paul’s video existed - that’s why he messed with P’s phone and “figured it out” his own words - he figured out that P’s phone was dead - thank goodness P let his battery run down. 💔

[@juaquiene7726]

Agni you bring up a crucial & interesting point. About Paul's phone. Paul enjoyed snap chatting ( did it all the time ) . Had there been a charge left on that battery. It would of been pitched into the swamp. Like the guns.

[@user-pz5rf4dq2v]

I think Alex thought Paul was talking to Rogen about cash but I don’t think he knew he was videoing taping or the phone would of disappeared Alex also stated in cross he did not know what Paul was doing and at this point I got to where I could tell when Alex was lying and I felt like he was truthful and he was getting the chicken from Budda at that time. If Alex knew there was a video he would never left the phone he saw missed calls from rogen and thought there was no proof

this team is just full of rockstars. i really don’t think they could’ve done a better job. the defense was bumbling and grasping for straws and these guys were focused and determined.

[@dgathome4345]

Alec was yelling at Bubba probably because he knew what he was about to do and he didn’t want anything to throw him off course. Alec was moments away from blowing away his son and wife. what could he have been thinking?

[@shipleysully6711]

Have you seen the timeline of Paul's, Maggie's, and Alex's phone data and Alex's car data? Honestly, I live in SC, only about an hour from Hampton and I just didn't get into any of this, when it happened. It wasn't until the trial had begun and approximately into the 2nd week, my mom told me it was a "must see" - so I went back to the beginning to catch up. But it wasn't until the trial was over, that I read the timeline and when you get to the timeframe where Maggie's and Paul's phones are locked forever, to realize at about that exact time, they were blown away, is chilling. For anyone reading this and that hasn't seen it, Google Murdaugh Timeline of Evidence: This is what happened the night Paul and Maggie were murdered. It gives details about the entire day, including some calls and FaceTime that Alex deleted from his phone so extraction of info from his phone doesn't match the main data base information.

[@kjh6903]

I would have loved to see Alex’s face when he saw that kennel video . I was on the fence until I heard / saw that video but then it was so clear he had done this . I didn’t want to believe a man could kill his own son but there was no denying it after that .

[@buffer0179]

Great team of professionals! Very interesting to hear them discuss this case.

[@knowsmebyname]

Disagree with Creighton that nobody knew Alex Murdaugh. Nobody in his front line life knew him. There are a number of people from Alec's shadow life who knew exactly who he was

[@suzymoroka297]

Like who? Even cousin Eddie said he felt betrayed by Alec and confused. He was doing Alec these favours by cashing laundered money for him, obtaining opioids for him and yet he just dropped him like a hot potato.

[@PippiPippi98765]

Yes, I believe you are very right on this one. Alex Murdaugh was smart, but not that smart! I mean every narcissist's Achiles heal is they believe they out smart everybody else and when time goes by they get sloppy. AM deceived people for years. Someone must have been suspicious of his methods, lies and lack of morals, but perhaps didn't have the means to go against him or thought it was a lost course as Paul's friend expressed (the one who's girlfriend got killed in the boat-accident). I do believe AM revealed his bad character to a lot of different people over the years, but I'm not sure anyone knew just how sinister he was - to this day I'm not sure he knows himself.

[@brynbailey7132]

​@Suzy Moroka like who? How about Buster (who cheated and got kicked out of law school and who was working with Alex to bribe his way back in), Alex's dad who was his "fixer", Maggie, who was in the proces of divorcing him, Alex's brothers Randy and John Marvin, who are knee deep in the thievery, and Alex's bank buddies who shifted money from victims to Alexs pockets...need any more?

[@linneaberger1925]

Also, when Maggie;s sister was on the stand and she said I hope Maggie didn't suffer..and Alex said she didn't...how would he know if he wasn't there. Plus when she said his first priority was clearing Paul's name...and she said hers was to find out who killed them.

[@agni5390]

Yes, more could have been explored here. But she was scared and they were gentle with her. She knew more than she shared.

[@gabehayes1833]

She did suffer. Sadly. The first two or three shots weren't fatal blows. The second two were. Both AM and Maggie were moving during the shots. She had to have been terrified

[@nancyh9030]

The guilt she suffers from telling her sister to go to Moselle was heartbreaking to hear. And it was so different from Alex who never expressed any regret about supposedly leaving the kennels right before they were killed.

[@jackieyoungblood0777]

Just Bc he told her No, you made can by what he had seen, I don't believe he killed Maggie

[@HatRatt]

[@maddyboombaddybaddy6532]

Without the chicken sacrificing it's life Alex would have walked.

[@MizpahMoo]

Teamwork makes the dreamwork. Thank you all, for bringing justice for Maggie and Paul, Alex should have been their protector, ultimately all he did was try to protect himself, you exposed the truth, he was even on the stand unable to tell the truth. I followed the whole trial from the U.K. Was great to see your legal system at work, your tight team really nailed it ! Kudos to each and everyone. Thank heavens for the testimony’s of those affected & close to Alex who over many years suddenly realised they didn’t know him at all and also had become victims of his deception, Alex harmed everyone, finally at trial, he shot him self! I send healing and love to all that have sadly been deceived and hurt by this narcissistic compulsive liar. we have yet to see more, the depth of what damage he has done knows no bounds.. he is the cruelest of cruel. He’s now in the right place, behind bars for the murder of his wife and child, I hope as judge Newman says, the final image of them looking him in the eye as he took their lives haunts him every day & night. Again, this was a huge case and extremely complex. Yet you made us all see what we needed to see to without doubt know the killer was Alex, he had used & totally abused his power and bought shame upon his family and & so much hurt to the area he served and the good innocent people of the low country. Thanks for the insight during this interview, great work all.💜

I thought the prosecuting attorney Waters was amazing!! Nailed it!! He painted the picture so clearly and pushed Alex to say things he didn’t want to say. Nothing left unanswered except for Alex’s continual lying! I think he became a pathological liar and narcissist!! He had a skill at playing people. He even convinced his brothers he wasn’t guilty of murders. They knew he’d stolen but I just think they didn’t want to believe it!! He became so callused he no longer had a conscience!! I loved the judges comments when Alex was being sentenced!! The thing is we can all do things we never thought we could do…but he gradually let it take possession of him! I think maybe he got to a point where he didn’t know what was true and what wasn’t over all!!

To which he replied: "I hope you can get a refund." Zing. Though the cost will be charged to Alex Murdaugh, to pay with the money he says he doesn't have.

Newly retired from healthcare after 47yrs. I kept at it bc the rewards were always at such a deeply moving level. I knew what I did mattered. Pts who were noncompliant or bad habits got them sick.... they were job security in a way.

[@maureensimons1236]

The entire team did an amazing job, and this trial was riveting. Some of the most poignant testimony was from Maggie's sister Marion, Blanca, and Shelly. It seemed clear that they realized the man they had known for so many years was a monster. AM's attempts to manipulate them into lying (Blanca and Shelly) or denying the truth of the last conversation between two sisters (Marion & Maggie) was utterly despicable. I hope they all find peace.

It kept building and building. When he showed the video with Officer Green I actually let out a shout because it was such an amazing finale. Alex actually seemed to deflate after that.

[@bettycattk5298]

Amazing that the Attorney General didn’t elbow his way into the center of this interview and take over. I’m glad the real prosecutors were able to talk.

[@giaatta9303]

Classy AG guy

[@cyndiwilkins3585]

Thank you all for making this public. A lot of us watched a majority of this trail and didn’t get the see the attorney view from their perspective. We only saw the courtroom testimonies unfold. I know this team worked so hard for justice for this Mother. Son, family and friends. Thank you for sharing.

[@MrBangbangjim]

Does anyone else know that Creighton played lead guitar while in a band in college called the SOLE PURPOSE? I think he still plays because the video online doesn't show him to be a young man. He's good too.

[@aralnoza]

Yes he is currently playing with the Sole Purpose band and Lighten Up Francis band. A very talented guitarist indeed.

[@linneaberger1925]

All you attorneys did a FANTASTIC JOB showing the evidence. So proud of you! Alex was guilty as heck! The video, car info and cell info was perfect. Paul nailed his dad with that video...no emotion from Alex ever...just fake crying..no tears...the money fraud I got...but the video etc was it!!

[@anovemberstar]

AM taking the stand was like a fast moving train wreck. He totally thought he was succeeding in pulling the wool over everyone's eyes lol.

[@dgathome4345]

Until the jury came back in less than three hours. When he was standing there waiting for the verdict to be read, he was sweating bullets. He knew he was sunk.

[@roxieolemeda3196]

Yeah that's come back 🔙 to bite him in the ass

[@tlsullivan1217]

Such an excellent interview. All of your interviews have been fabulous!Great work from the state and everyone involved in this case. Makes me want to move from NC to SC. For now I’ll visit. Congratulations to all

[@linneaberger1925]

Do you think the clothes and guns were at Almeda? I think he hosed the blood off, then went & changed his clothes

[@dz7a756]

So much of a better interview than part one in terms of everyone having an opportunity to speak. Glad to see the interviewers engage everyone. I, like David, said the same thing about Bubba...so glad he was a stubborn dog 🐕 🐶 for what was needed to show Alex's lies. Good job team!!! Be well and be at peace.

[@bettycattk5298]

Everyone had a chance to speak because the politician Attorney General was not there trying to elbow everyone out of the way and grab all of the attention!

​@@bettycattk5298 Someone is mad.

[@truthseeker474]

OMG ! ' Only Alex was not afraid ' by Maggie's sister spoke volume of her feelings on the murder. The Hon. Judge Newman was GREAT & FAIR. This should be made into a Movie ' Circumstance Evidence,Bubba & Cash' Brilliant Prosecution Team!❤🎉🎉🎉

[@dgathome4345]

I think John Meaders’ closing was the cherry.

[@ThePabs0605]

I think some people knew who he was but chose to ignore his traits due to miss placed loyalty

[@russpost2557]

What about the lady from Alex law firm . Didn't they notice the checks and balances were out of wack for years ? It took 10 years to figure out alex was stealing from the firm ?

[@susanlilley-rizos9906]

I learned so much from viewing this video. It triggered me to go back and watch sections of the trial to see what they were talking about. This trial was so deep.

[@user-cd9zo3tj1s]

You four were amazing well done HH from Ireland xx

[@travelingaquanauts3137]

Does Savanna Goude remind anyone else of a young Freda Black from the Michael Peterson trial? I can see her becoming a fantastic prosecutor in time.

[@trishmckenzie8810]

Great Interview! These Prosecutor's were 100% invested and absolutely shined!

[@michelleklemenok37]

Savannah’s my favorite .. Strong, smart lady. 🙂

[@agni5390]

The defense helped you! Letting Alex testify, asking for the visit to Moselle…

[@suzymoroka297]

What was the deal with Alec calling Rogan? Was it really his intention for RoRo to go to Moselle and discover the dead bodies and therefore making him a first suspect in the eyes of LE? I read that in another channel someone posted that was Alec’s plan. Anyone else got that?

[@shipleysully6711]

I agree. Have you happened to see the timeline of Paul's, Maggie's, and Alex's phone data of that day? If not, Google Murdaugh Timeline of Evidence: This is what happened the night Paul and Maggie were murdered. He called Rogan several times and if memory serves me correctly, he tried to FaceTime him. It kind of gives me chills, beyond what I have when I read the timeline and see the moment that Paul and Maggie were blown away, when their phones lock and that's that. But I also wondered, along your same lines, IF he wasn't trying to persuade Rogan there and kill Rogan and call it self defense, blaming him for the killings and/or it had something to do with the video Paul took because apparently AM tried to get into Paul's phone and put it down. I think whatever the case, AM was up to no good.

@@shipleysully6711 that was amazing!!! That time line and their phone use was undeniable . That and the kennel video were the most damning in my opinion.

The woman at the beginning briefly talked and that was her only contribution to this interview.

[@LadyChann]

Great job guys. I’m looking forward to seeing the movie of this whole entire story/incident . 👌🏾😊🎉

[@sallyhindman485]

I learned more about South Carolina from this case than I had ever dreamed of, and Creighton Waters has represented his state in simply an incredibly impressive way. Before, honestly, I just thought of S. Carolina as a very poor, racist state, one of the poorest in the US. And I knew Stephen Colbert was from S. Carolina! Now, when I think about S. Carolina...omg I think about this brilliant State legal team and the incredibly classy and brilliant, super dignified way they handled this case. The way they practiced their phenomenal team work. Wow!!!

[@lashellbangert2155]

Yes Mr. Meadows, exactly I would have been holding my loved one blood all over me.

[@HopefulHealingGarden]

THIS is an EXCELLENT example of how our justice system is INTENDED to work! The LAW was upheld. The VICTIMS were vindicated. The GUILTY PARTY was held accountable. He got a fair trial. The judge did his job appropriately. The Constitution was respected, along with the Bill of Rights. THANK YOU!!! We're not a complete Banana Republic yet. THIS is how it is supposed to work!

[@lindahuckabee5807]

Just wait those inmates will get him.

[@cgordon1386]

To all of those involved in this case, you are a great bunch of people, thank you all. This was a stand up team of great professionals, what a feat. The prosecution may even say, that they practiced all their lives for justice such as this. I am, like thousands of others so proud of them. Having said that, I also believe the prosecution knew going in that they would be able to slam dunk this case, as the officers first on site did everything right, and the questioning of Alex in the car was professional all the way. The jurors were clearly stand up people with common sense, which is not always the case as we know. Congrats......Canada.
