GUILTY!

[Big Bad Dad]

Didn't take the jury long to decide.....

Jury Finds Alex Murdaugh Guilty of Murdering Wife and Son

 

[Richard Cranium]

Personally, I wasn’t following at all.

 

[Hey-O]

X2. Everyday some crazy bastard shoots someone, somewhere. One, two or eight, kids, women or men. Welcome to the ever changing country we live in............

 

[Black_Sheep]

His story had so many holes in it, I hope he gets “loved tenderly” in prison…

 

[68BabyBlue]

This guy is the epitome of why I gave up on trying to be a plaintiff's attorney. Some of these guys are ethical, upstanding professionals, but many are not. I've been up close to both. There is potentially a lot of money to be made in this arena by being somewhat less than ethical, and that's a situation that can produce some pretty pathological behavior.

And yet this CREEP and his story are tabloid front page news. WHY??? No one gives 2 SH*TS nor endorses it. If they do??? cr8crshr/Bill

Two life terms. Consecutive. He won't ever be getting out. Well, maybe.......

This case reminded me of the Jerry Sandusky scandal at Penn State a decade ago, in terms of the reprehensible behavior of the defendant. It took years upon years for the case to be built. The prosecution got all their ducks in a row, knowing the potential fall out of taking on a figurehead of the Penn State football dynasty, and not making it stick. The judge did the same during the trial. He left nothing to chance, and the resulting appeals were tossed immediately. Sandusky had one of the top criminal lawyers in the state, who executed an artful media blitz. He still got convicted on all but three of 46 counts.

The state was concerned about him interacting with others in prison, and making new "friends." I think it will be the same in this case. Sandusky is totally isolated from the general population, 23 hours a day in solitary. He gets out for three hours of heavily supervised activity, twice a week. IMO Murdaugh shouldn't have taken the stand, with his track record, but the greatest weakness of many trial lawyers is they don't know when to shut up.

Agreed, Glad its over,,,or is it ?

Sad part is now the news will just over expose some other dipshit and talk about it day in and day out

Up here it Canada, it would probably get plead down to manslaughter. Two charges of 14 years each to be served concurrently. Be back on the street again in 8 years with good behaviour.

I think he should be in prison,
he's a dirtbag, he's a liar, he's an embezzler, a con man too possibly
he should be tried on that in a different case & court
(this is like OJ getting off because he was black & a cop used the N word
& this douchebag was convicted of murder because he was a wealthy White guy
that was a dirtbag, this has all the earmarks of a race trial, just like OJ's,
**** that had absolutely nothing to do with him murdering 2 people)

but;
they didn't prove he killed his wife & son
not beyond a reasonable amount of doubt...
they even had to dismiss a juror for talking to people outside the jury

did he murder them, maybe (? probably)
but they didn't prove it at all... NO

just because a jury doesn't like you
& you're a RICH prominent & White douchebag/dirtbag Lawyer
they don't like you, because of, them facts, it doesn't equate to murder guilt

the judge is/was bias also, you could tell during sentencing

all the evidence they brought in/forward,
is circumstantial at best
& him being a drug addict, and a habitual liar
(poss. because of the drugs & paranoia)
&/or an embezzler, cheater/total douchebag/dirtbag for personal financial gains
ripping off his clients & firm, THAT ALL has nothing to do with their murders

it's called due process, unbias,
everyone 'even dirtbags/rich white douchebags',
is entitled to a fair trial of
the truth, the fact, the evidence & nothing but the truth/facts
so help them, GOD

that other crap/****, should have been a separate trial altogether
that **** he is completely guilty of,
he admitted it on the witness stand in court, under oath
under penalty of law


again that doesn't equate to murder guilt,
no matter how much you dislike the douchebag/dirtbag

I hate to say it but the LEOs blew the case
no gun, no ballistics evidence
they didn't do the phone research, NAV or GPS **** or otherwise
on the wife & his kids' cell phones (threats against his sons)
until after 5 days
all the info was not available after that

they never had any other person of interest, no other suspects at all
when there was enough cause to at least look into it
only the defendant, was a suspect

(I know most of the time it's someone related or close to or know by the victims,
that's the guilty or a perp...
but; they should do their jobs & investigate,
especially without the bloody spattered clothes & smoking gun)

there was so much outside BS that had/has nothing to do with murder/s

again IMHFO he belongs in prison
they did not prove he committed murder, not beyond a reasonable doubt

no matter how much he lied, or was a total dirtbag

I don't know if any of you people, ever served on a real case in/on a real jury
that is the 1st thing the judge tells you or should
don't take into account anything that doesn't pertain to the actual case

way too many holes in the case, & yes
he wasn't likable & they convicted him on his other crimes,
but for murder
not for the fact/proof he did these murders
the murder charges never were forensically proven
& no smoking gun or murder weapon/s
or no blood-spattered clothing/shoes etc.
not in his house or his bedroom or his/mothers or parents' house
jsut a small drop/lil' of his blood (a spot) in his car,
or even the clothes he was wearing, to commit the crime
they didn't have any of it
being a dirtbag & a con artist doesn't mean 'you killed your wife & son'
beyond a reasonable doubt

'if it doesn't fit you must acquit'

him being a liar & a despicable human,
that isn't proof of guilt, of murdering his wife & son

IMHFO the jury had made up their minds before the trial was even over
it will be appealed (defense atty. said supposedly in 10 days)
& I'll bet, he will get a new trial, based on what I pointed out
so much ****, that was done wrong & the judge is part of that too...
I suppose if I was on that jury, it'd been a hung jury
no way I would convict him (not of murder) on the evidence put forward
by what they presented as "murder 1" x 2 counts of charges

(he may have done it, but that's not the point, there's no tangible evidence
no smoking gun or the actual murder weapon, clothing or otherwise
showing that he was guilty, not 'beyond a/any reasonable doubt' )

Again I think he should be in prison
for the other crimes, but they jumped the gun
(didn't even find one) on Murder

to each their own

Same stuff I was thinking. There was reasonable doubt. He was not a nice person. That being said, I would have kept him off the stand, and he would have been smarter to cop a plea with the cards he was holding. Sandusky case I cited differed in that he was also not a nice person, but the state really did their homework, and the appeals never got traction.

 

[GetX'd]

Since Im on a self imposed total news black out the last 2 years I’ve heard or seen nothing of this case. “ If you did the crime you do the time” as Tony B used to say (even tho he didnt himself)

My wife and I love watching Chicago PD. Someone should have taken him for a ride.

Didn't take the jury long to decide.....

Jury Finds Alex Murdaugh Guilty of Murdering Wife and Son

But he said he didn't do it.

 

[kiwigtx]

I knew the guy was guilty from the first time I heard about it.....even the late TV Detective Inspector Taggart knew it...... the guy's name was a giveaway....

Yeah, the crime numbers are up but man, with today's media and internet, we hear about this stuff from all over the place and fast and living close to a city of nearly 2.3m and in a county of a little over 4.7m, you're going to hear it a bunch!

Same with some (probably a lot more than some) divorce lawyers! The guy that was recommended to me by a couple of trusted friends turned out to be a real tool. Got rid of him fast before he ended up with more than my X and I would have as a whole. Ended up just going and listening to what she (the X) and her lawyer proposed, which isn't usually a good thing, but it was ok with me once I sat and thought about it and actually ended up better off! Actually, I think her lawyer liked me more than he liked her lol but imo, think he just followed what she wanted vs what she probably could have ended up with.

The whole family

The documentary series on Netflix , I forgot about the whole boat accident and the cover up
with that young lady that lost her life

Then the other two alleged murders , accidents , ok sure

Eye opening

 

[Don Frelier]

Was he simply convicted for being a "bad person with a history of selfishness, self absorption, immaturity and greed?"

 

[Detective D]

I don't watch TV.
If it is on TV it is there as a distraction. I don't even recognize that name.
if it gets an appeal and they put that on TV, then you know for sure it is a distraction.
