Honestly that's the only difference between being poor and being rich. If you regard your finances with the same regard you carry for your church you will be poor until the day you die.

One of my best friend's dad murdered his ex wife in a Wal Mart parking lot then killed himself. He'd beat her for years but the police would show up and never locked him up. My friends mom finally left him and he stalked her and the police still did nothing until he finally killed her. I've seen a lot of the darkside of affluent families.

I also believe a Murdaugh ordered or orchestrated the unplugging of Hakeem's ventilator 3 days after Alex received a settlement in his and his mother's accident. That $ was stolen by Alex. Oh the financial destruction and deaths that are branded with the Murdaugh name! Including Paul and Maggie! I have no doubt Alex assinated in cold blood without an ounce of remorse his wife and son.

His parents encouraged him to drink at age 16. His girlfriend said she never drank before until she started dating Paul and then they'd go to his parents house and everybody was drinking.

I like his lawyers response when the reporter asked him “were there any problems in Alex and Maggie’s marriage?” “Absolutely not, trust me.” Also, regardless if the Murdaughs have anything to do with Stephen Smith, even to my untrained eye, the whole hit and run scenario seemed far fetched.

[@phoenixmerridian9119]

Police let Maggie Murdaugh and their grandfather murdaugh down to the crime scene, but stopped Mallorys mother from going down so she just had to sit back and watch as the Murdaughs got to go to the boat but she couldnt go look for her daughter down there.

[@tashia6683]

You realize that Netflix documentaries are always biased in the opinion of the producers. Bc I have seen a KZbin channel where they live in the area and investigated the Murdaughs and it’s not what the media and streaming platforms tell you. These kids didn’t have to get back on the boat when they were in town but did. Easy to attack and accuse people who are dead an unable to defend themselves.
