⚖️ MURDAUGH MURDERS & TRIAL THREAD ⚖️

I just saw where Alex's lawyer said ol Eddie agreed to shoot him for free. LOL.
Makes total sense.

"Hey Eddie, I know that it will put your freedom at serious risk, but do you mind following me down the road and shooting me in head with this gun when I pull over,... for free?"

"Sure Alex, you did do me right with that speeding ticket in 2013, so I'd be happy to!"


Hmmmm, or maybe yet another interesting slip of the tongue and there was some other serious leverage that he had on Eddie...
 
Most of our legislature is comprised of attorneys and a bunch of them are defense attorneys. Harpo is just one of the best in SC.
The attorneys in the legislature are mostly plaintiffs attorneys in civil cases and defense attorneys for criminal cases. There are very few civil defense attorneys in the SC legislature.

Not trying to contradict you, just clarifying.
 
If you live like I do (land poor and cash poor), you end up avoiding a lot of murders and coverups, etc.

Harpo is a civil and criminal defense attorney no?? Granted he probably only takes on high profile clients for criminal defense but that is a area he practices in.

He is a criminal defense attorney but a plaintiffs' attorney (primarily) on the civil side. So if the State charges you with a crime, he will defend you. And his reputation is as one of the legends of criminal defense in this State.

I'm sure he has represented some civil defendants, but in (for instance) a personal injury case he is going to be on the side of the injured person, not the defendant or their insurance company the vast majority of the time.
 
That was my first thought as well. So the first lawyer runs with the "story" Alex wanted to tell saying it was a targeted killing. And Harpoolitan stated that he had been representing Paul in the boat killing case.

So this guy is involved with all these shady individuals and the citizens of SC are just supposed to trust him as an elected official? Not a good look.

This Harpoolitan guy is one trying to basically get the bars in 5 points closed down, all while he's representing and defending this corrupt guy/son when they're trying to get out of boat crash killing and all this other stuff.
Are you even the least bit surprised? Most State and Federal legislators are among the slimiest creatures around. SC has some of worst repping us in DC.

I wonder what ole Alex is thinking right now. His family was redneck famous and powerful for a hundred years and its all gone on his watch.
 
Any law folks on here want to speculate on why Alex hasn't been arrested yet?
He is a savvy attorney, he has likely muddied the waters big time, a conviction on this will not be easy I would guess.

Not in the law business, but SLED has already said that they need to have enough evidence to standup in a court of law, intend to be very thorough with the investigation, and the public should remain patient.

Seems like there are two possibilities, Alex is guilty and they have to be getting really close with all that has gone on over the past few weeks, or Alex is really not guilty of the murders and it is going to take a lot longer to unpack an even crazier story.

But hey, in the mean time we get to do all of this speculation and watch the drama unfold like an awesome Netflix series. And you have to admit, the drama already far exceeds the plot lines of some of the best existing series.
 
So how would Eddie be charged with assist and suicide and fraud without a confession from Alex? Not being a smart ass, just can’t wrap my head around that charge.
Alex has already fully confessed to the staged suicide/murder. He still maintains he did not murder his wife and son. The attorney said that they even went to SLED before SLED went to Alex. I suspect that SLED already had evidence, maybe from the church camera, which allowed them to get Eddie first, or let Alex know that the writing was on the wall.

Yeah I didn’t make a good point. I was more so asking how in the world has Alex not been charged with conspiracy and fraud at the minimum?

I’m just kind of surprised a public official would have/want his name attached to this slimeball and his son. After seeing this play out in public, knowing Dick H has been representing the dead son and father throughout the events, will cause to completely tune out anything that man has to say in relation to SC politics. Not that I really paid attention to start, just wild he’d want his name attached to these people now.

Good question. This is what SLED and the attorney said:

"Murdaugh was not charged Tuesday night, but agents called him a co-defendant and said more charges were expected. Harpootlian said he expects Murdaugh to be charged in his own shooting, but doesn’t think his client knows who killed his wife and son."

This just adds to my suspicion is that SLED is a lot closer to charging Alex with a lot more than just this fraud, and are still dotting I's and crossing T's.

Agree, but money speaks loudly.

What the heck are they gonna be able to find in relation to the actual death. She fell down steps at a private home with only family there half of which is dead. Noe I guess they can investigate the half million payment and what happened to it. Pretty obvious though that it has been spent on drugs and her family never got a dime.

Also Poop does not defend for free.....if Alex has no cash I guess he will get movie rnights
 
Here’s an example of how evil this family is. Let’s pretend that Paul/Timmy didn’t push the babysitter down the stairs like everyone has said since it happened…

After killing the babysitter, Alex gets his buddies to sue his insurance, gets $500,000 to distribute between them and doesn’t even give a dime to her sons (one of them is special needs). AND doesn’t even pay for the funeral for a person that was “like family”.

Their evil knows no bounds…

This article makes me wanna hurt somebody. All of these heartless clowns need to be in jail. Judges, attorneys, family, etc

I agree. Whatever evidence there was is long gone. All they can really hope to do at this point is find the money.

They will not find it because am sure it is spent but guess he could be charged for a false insurance claim. Also seems like the money should have been for the woman's family, certainly not for Alex and his family. would have thought it would have been secondary homeowner liability policy to protect homeowner when suit brought by someone injured on the property. Do not see how Alex could file a claim for his family.
 
Who is this guy that shot Alex? Curtis Edward Smith. Just a meth/opioid dealer or something else?
 
is there a TL; DR summary of all of this case? I've seen bits and pieces along the way, but feel completely lost since I havent kept up with since the beginning.
Yep. You're welcome.

Don’t care what he’s thinking. Do feel for the good members of the family. This is all so ugly and it’s going to get worse.
