I'm more interested in trying to understand why anyone would tie a dead man to a chair..... Seems a little 'overkill'sure......but then you are saying his dad shot him, tied him to a chair and claimed self defense......how dumb is that

Really do not think anyone has said that til the poster earlier. on previous page.......the theory early in this thread of why he was tied to a chair is that he was killed execution style after being tied to the chair. But being tied to the chair has not been 100% confirmedI'm more interested in trying to understand why anyone would tie a dead man to a chair..... Seems a little 'overkill'
According to SLED, the case is being investigated as a double homicide.Are those quotes from the police?
I have trouble believing that.Mallory’s mother had them killed. Strong inside rumor.
I like your version, work in the "execution style" , "multiple gunshots" and I can sign off on it!Here's my wild speculation of what happened based on nothing else than watching Zero Zero Zero, The Godfather, The Zodiac Killer, and Mindhunter plus my awful imagination:
A two-person team is watching the 4147 Moselle Road property. The target is Paul M. They wait until twilight ends - 8:56:43 pm and cause a ruckus by the dog kennels to get Paul out of the house. They shoot the dogs, Paul comes running, and one of them shoots him with a shotgun.
Why use a shotgun? So he can't have an open casket. See Godfather when Vito takes Sonny to Amerigo Bonasera's funeral home.
The poor mother, hearing shots fired, races out of the house to investigate carrying a firearm. Being a mama bear, she starts popping off shots at the perps. Backup guy, carrying an AR, has no choice but to shoot the mom. Why? they don't want to get shot, and they need at least 22 minutes to get to 95. Then they drove south on 95, into GA to cross jurisdictions, and they disposed of the guns in chimneys in an Italian neighborhood during the Feast of San Gennaro.
Another crime podcast guess - Mallory Beach's family is not involved. However, I would look at all civil cases against the family that have been settled. Someone felt that justice needed to be served vigilante style.
OK. It breaks down like this:I like your version, work in the "execution style" , "multiple gunshots" and I can sign off on it!
I doubt anybody is gonna pick up their gun and run toward two random shots fired, especially when it is on a 1,000+ acre "hunting" compound.OK. It breaks down like this:
Son rage kills mother, shooting her more than once. One of the local workers hears the commotion and gunshots and grabs his shotgun and runs to the scene. (Satisfies mysterious farmhand rumor.)
He finds the kid sitting in a chair in hysterics with the gun in his lap. (Satisfies the "tied to a chair" rumor.) Farmhand yells at the kid: "What have you done?" Kid picks up the gun. Farmhand yells "Put the gun down. It'll be OK. Just put the gun down."
Kid sweeps the gun up and points it at the farmhand who pulls the trigger on his shotgun twice. (Satisfies the multiple gunshots and "execution style" rumor.)
Note: Still could only be one shot. Turkey season just ended. Maybe he was shot with 41 pellets of copper plated #4's. Could look like two shots. The coroner should be able to tell the difference, though.
Fire a gun in my front yard and see if I don't show up with one of my own.I doubt anybody is gonna pick up their gun and run toward two random shots fired, especially when it is on a 1,000+ acre "hunting" compound.
A family like that with a property like that has more security at the gate than just a "Keep Out" sign nailed to a tree.
Maybe a little screaming mixed in. Maybe a "help, help me" or two. Somebody comes running.I doubt anybody is gonna pick up their gun and run toward two random shots fired, especially when it is on a 1,000+ acre "hunting" compound.

Well, that family has gone about two years stewing over what they may perceive is a lack of justice regarding the death of their daughter. A lot can build up in two years.The “hit” scenario requires a level of evil most people cannot rise to.
First, you have to find an accomplice. That’s no easy task.
Then a level of sinister, nefarious and downright evil planning that is hard to believe.
I don't claim to know anything.I love how many experts we have on this board. It’s the best.
I don't claim to know anything.
I just wrote my own little fictionalized account of what could have happened based on very, very limited knowledge.
I'm thinking of doing the screenplay next.
keep up. trash compactor or ice machinethings ive learned this last week;:::
from tMB, its now a “dog kinnil” or dog “pin”
richard ”buster” murdaugh translates to “dick buster” and hes reportedly gay
from here, my third wifes cousins aunts son used to be a farmhand there so anything he says about the shootings ill post here as truth
unless the Clintons are in volved, theres no murder/suicide with each being shot multipole times
Prayers for your familyThere are some serious POS's on this message board.
this thread is on pace to knock out the N. Augusta Gypsy thread on the Main boardkeep up. trash compactor or ice machine
Football, basketball, baseball, a few softball experts and now homicide investigation via message board. It's an amazing collection of talent.I love how many experts we have on this board. It’s the best.
Ok, tough guy, settle down... unless you live on a 1,000+ acre compound I don't think these two correlate.Fire a gun in my front yard and see if I don't show up with one of my own.
Maybe a little screaming mixed in. Maybe a "help, help me" or two. Somebody comes running.
But here is the real hell of it (my personal conspiracy):
There is a group of lawyers that are thinking ahead.
They know that the best thing for the legacy of the family is an unsolved assassination.
Do they have the clout to make that a reality? I don't know.
I do know a bunch of lawyers could make life miserable at SLED. They probably have demanded to see every report since day one. They will want to control the narrative until they decide what they like and they may be in a position and have the power to do it.
Not a tough guy. Just stating the obvious.Ok, tough guy, settle down... unless you live on a 1,000+ acre compound I don't think these two correlate.
Not trying to solve anything either.
Well that was random.Every knows SLED is a world famous investigative agency with a forensic lab that is nearly unmatched anywhere in the world.

If it was a hit more likely Grandpa and Daddy then the girls familyWell, that family has gone about two years stewing over what they may perceive is a lack of justice regarding the death of their daughter. A lot can build up in two years.
And Its Hampton and Colleton counties. I mean, you can find somebody to do about anything for a few thousand bucks if you know where to look.
Having said that, I don't think we are really certain about much of anything other than they died on the property between 9 and 930 of multiple gunshot wounds. Again, unless its been in an LOE's statement, press release or direct quote, I would not count on it and even then they don't have an obligation to be completely candid and can shade details if it serves the interest of the investigation.
Get well soonThanks to everyone involved in this thread for the nearly endless entertainment. It came in extra handy with my being laid up in the hospital for 5 days this past week. The time also allowed my mind to drift a bit and I've wondered if maybe with the patriarch knowing his death was imminent, would he want to rewrite the family legacy? Could he have orchestrated the destruction of the really really bad apple in the bunch (Paul) in order for the family name to be restored somewhat? Don't know these folks but from this thread, they all seem like the types to care about the family name and its place in history. Getting rid of Paul would ensure no future shame brought on the family. Not sure why Maggie would be destroyed other than collateral damage or to throw investigators off the trail. Who knows!
Anyway, just a thought to ponder, and again, MUCH appreciation for this thread y'all.
