Alex Murdaugh Not Happy With Hulu Series

Convicted killer blasts “numerous inaccuracies and misleading portrayals” contained in dramatization…

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Notorious convicted killer and confessed fraudster Alex Murdaugh is not happy with how he and his family have been portrayed in a new Hulu television series.

Murdaugh: Death In The Family was released last month to mixed reviews. It purports to tell the story of the Murdaugh saga through the eyes of former FITSNews reporter-turned-podcaster Mandy Matney.

This week, Murdaugh issued a statement on the show through his attorneys, Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin.

“Alex is deeply disappointed and disturbed by the recent Hulu streaming series about him and the entire Murdaugh family,” the statement noted. “The program contains numerous inaccuracies and misleading portrayals that distort the truth of their lives. The depiction of their personal family dynamics is particularly troubling, as it totally mischaracterizes Alex’s relationships with his wife Maggie and his son Paul, both of whom Alex loves so dearly. Alex was always extremely proud of Paul. Any other portrayal of his feelings toward Paul and Maggie are baseless and false.”

“Equally concerning is the lack of engagement by the producers or actors to understand the individuals portrayed,” the statement continued. “No one from Hulu ever reached out to Alex, his son Buster, anyone in the Murdaugh family, or Alex’s attorneys to hear their perspective or verify the facts. Instead, the program appears to rely heavily on sensationalized accounts from secondary sources with no direct knowledge or relationship with him or his family. We urge viewers to approach this dramatization with the knowledge that it is not an accurate portrayal of Alex, his family, or the tragic events that it sensationalizes.”

While it’s obviously a bit rich for Murdaugh to criticize anyone else for playing fast and loose with the truth, critics have been equally unimpressed by the Hulu production.

“The show has nothing to say, and there’s zero artistry in its lurid retelling of a man murdering his wife and son,” a review from USA Today noted. “Exploitative, dull and lacking a point of view, ‘Murdaugh’ is a new lowpoint in our collective murder obsession.”

“Ripping from the headlines is a money-making ploy as old as Hollywood itself,” the scathing critique continued. “But it’s hard not to get angry watching such a macabre rehashing of violent crimes and relentless heartbreak simply because viewers have seen ‘Murdaugh’ in a headline. When there’s no thesis or insight, this series feels dangerously close to pure exploitation of a tragedy real people have endured.”

While the Murdaugh drama plays out on the small screen, it’s worth noting the story itself is far from over. As our research director Jenn Wood has reported on in detail over the past few months – the convicted killer’s appeal is moving toward a date with the S.C. supreme court (and a possible date with the U.S. fourth circuit court of appeals after that).

Wood has also unearthed several new pieces of evidence related to the crime – and has relaunched her investigation into some of the broader alleged criminal connections to Murdaugh.

Meanwhile, the official accused of tampering with Murdaugh’s jury has yet to face accountability for her alleged crimes – while allegations of jury rigging remain unexplored by police and prosecutors.

Count on FITSNews to continue digging for the truth related to this saga… wherever that truth may lead.

Malicious Mandy Matney (“MMM”) is not a monster you, FITS, created; she was a monster before she came to you; you only fed her a salary and let her grow.
But don’t continue to feed her by calling her “intrepid.” “Unscrupulous” is the right word for her.
And for a blog that depends on people READING your articles, YOU should read MMM’s book “Blood on their Hands” cover to cover as I did.
Or at least Jenn Wood should. So should Dick and Jim, or at least the sharp-eyed paralegal Holli Miller should.
And definitely Richard Alexander Murdaugh (“RAM”) should bite the proverbial bullet and read “Blood on their Hands” and “The Devil at His Elbow” no matter how painful readings these would make. RAM and Holli might even catch more tell-tales than I did.
But a crucial tell-tale is from THIS outlet having reduced the number of free articles/month and/or raised the price of the monthly subscription EXACTLY one week before Paul and Maggie’s demise. You, Will Folks, justified the necessary revenue by the need to pay MMM and her “work wife” Liz Farrell, whom you had just brought on board.
As far as I remember, MMM and Liz Farrell wrote on NOTHING else on your outlet; and, though I do not watch it, their podcast BASICALLY talks about nothing else except when they attack black judges, notably Judge Manning, and black lawyers, notably Marvin Pendarvis.
Say what you want about RAM’s financial dealings; but RAM does NOT appear to have been a racist in his choice of friends, employees, or clients.
But Ever-Bluffing Eric Bland definitely is a racist; and so are MMM’s podcasts which EBEB promotes.
I do not have a bias; I have righteous indignation against those who manufacture FALSE criminal charges to gain unfair advantage in civil litigation (even though that is DIRECTLY forbidden by the rules governing lawyers’ conduct) because I have been, and continue to be, a victim of that sin (“thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor”) myself.
And I have FIRST-HAND knowledge of the tactics used by those who bear false witness against their neighbor and the tactics of those who suborn them to do so.
Many of those tactics used against me were used against RAM and by the SAME people, including John Meadors, David Fernandez, and Johnny James.
One of those tactics is to ascribe a motive so far-fetched and stupid that no self-respecting person would believe it but to keep repeating it as if it were a brilliant discovery that only geniuses would have thought about it.
It worked on RAM; but, thank God, it did not work on me as I defended myself WITHOUT A LAWYER.
Another tactic is to ignore the obvious with such a cold-blooded straight face that a jury is misled into believing the obvious is unimportant.
In my case, Hatchet-for-Hire Heather (Weiss) presented photos of previously-convicted and re-convicted and ALSO later re-convicted drug dealer Cory/Corey Lamont Curry masturbating at me in my own parking lot but wanted my jury to believe I was the criminal for having taken those photos of that Curry in the act of shooting me the fingers of both his hands and threatening to steal my camera and rape me and use my own stolen camera to photograph himself in the act of raping me.
With all that evidence, and with Hatchet-for-Hire Heather HERSELF having been the first prosecutor to convict that Curry of PWID-crack cocaine, Curry was listed as a prosecution witness against me under a false claim that I harassed HIM by photographing him as he delivered drugs in the vicinity of my residence.
Another example is Hatchet-for-Hire Heather pretending that I made a toddler cry by taking her photo from over 30 feet away when that photo shows that toddler’s supposed baby-sitter, one Teresa Felicia Ingram Jackson, physically abusing that toddler by directing her stroller towards the noon-day sun without shielding her eyes and by giving her a key chain to play with and put in her mouth, a CLASSIC choking risk.
Always, before taking my word, take the record.
With RAM, they ignore the obvious: that darn kennels video was not sent, NOT because Paul was shot right after filming it, BUT BECAUSE it shows no “pone” on Cash’s tail after Paul sleeving that tail through his palm then displaying that palm to the video and showing no “pone” in it. It means that what Paul had previously thought was a lesion, a “pone,” on Cash’s tail was either an optical illusion or a piece of dirt that had since fallen off and there was no longer any need to consult the veterinarian friend of a friend of Rogan Gibson, Cash’s owner.
Another tactic used by EBEB against both RAM and Marvin Pendarvis is to make the client play dumb to the lawyer to entrap the lawyer in a lie.
That email Tony Satterfield sent RAM was several months AFTER the details of the entire settlement were unearthed by MMM from court records. So, Tony was not really inquiring, he was playing dumb to RAM.
The same theater was played by Marvin Pendarvis’ client at EBEB’s behest.
So, the money “Cousin Eddie” was harping on RAM to get “for the boys” may not have been for drug dealers but for Tony Satterfield and his brother somebody Herriot.
Also, I always believed, and still do, that at least one of the real killers, if not both or all three of them, is a female trained in hunting animals but not in human combat. That is because the initial shots are aimed at the height of a game animal’s head, not a standing human’s head.
Whom does that fit? Mark “the tiger” Tinsley’s daughter for one.
Paul’s ex-girl friend for another. According to “The Devil at His Elbow,” it was none other than the Murdaughs who had taught her to hunt. And she had a love-hate relationship with Paul, who MIGHT have (when mad at her) likened her “work” modeling at “It’s Retail Therapy” to soft prostitution.
And for a third, a lesbian ne’er-do-well called Olivia Boyles, who responded to MMM’s advertisement after the boat crash and stoked the filthy rumor that Paul and Buster killed Stephen Smith with a baseball bat because Stephen was the secret gay partner of one or both of the Murdaugh boys.
A vicious lesbian was one of my false accusers, too. Her name is Amanda Star Blanton; and last I knew she was employed by none other than Sheriff Chuck Wright.
Blanton, along with most of the South Carolina gay “community” were and still are mad at me for a May 1993 column I had written for The State newspaper proving that the Kinsey Report is statistically flawed, that not 10% but at most 0.1% of the population is actually gay, and that the LeVey “study” reversed cause and effect.
I had written that it does NOT prove that most gay men are born that way but that the differences in their brains LeVey found are the RESULT of their estrogen intake to femininize their appearance.
The current clamor for sex hormones for supposedly transgender boys proves my prescience.
But those people, including Amanda Star Blanton, fantasized that I wanted children protected from gay propaganda, not because I believe it harmful to children but because I was supposedly in denial about my own orientation. For the record, my “orientation” is CELIBACY outside marriage and monogamy in marriage. I never had any lesbian relationship or desire for one. But that did not stop my false accusers as it did not stop Paul and Buster’s false accusers, including MMM and NetFlix.
RAM and Buster, don’t get mad, get justice within the law AS REFORMED to be more scientific.
FITS, get a journalistic coup by getting RAM’s reaction to this comment of mine and, if possible, to all my comments on your outlet.

LakeTahoeZ, Top Fan, thanks for reading (or trying to read) my post and for the courteous and constructive critique.
Please tell me if this is concise enough; then refer to some of the details in the longer post for objective support:
1. One of South Carolina’s criminal courts system’s greatest failures is its allowing known malicious and false prosecutions for other parties to gain unfair advantages in civil court/family court litigation.
2. Another of the system’s greatest failures is not requiring so-called law-enforcement officers to rigorously and timely collect evidence scientifically known to either exonerate a criminal defendant or convict him/her. A category of such evidence is the most accurate approximation possible to the time of death.
3. A third failure is the unchecked powers of prosecutors and failure to hold them accountable when they abuse those powers to the point of suborning perjury.
4. Because I scientifically know the time of death of Paul and Maggie to be at least 30 minutes later than what the Prosecution claimed, and because I have been the victim of malicious prosecution myself, I see commonalities between Alex’s case and mine, although mine was harassment, not murder, and (thank God) I defended myself WITHOUT A LAWYER and avoided a conviction after a five-day jury trial in Judge Clifton Newman’s court.
5. Because of my unique experience and, without false humility, unique talents, I feel moral obligation to say for Alex and other wrongly convicted people what no one else has the knowledge and/or courage to say.
6. Though I try to maintain scientific objectivity, the whole thing is also very painful and emotional for me. So, I really do appreciate your response.
Thanks again and God bless.

Oh Alex sorry your feeling are hurt about how your family has been portrayed. I think it is a great show and is far better than the ” Dick and Jim ” show. I hope you are enjoying the three hots and a cot that you got and so very deserve. Hopefully by now you have made new friends with garbage just like you. In closing Alex enjoy the show and even watch it again. FO!

This may be an unlikely place to seek interest in the plight of Coptic Christians in Egypt, one of whom stands FALSELY accused of molesting a Moslem child; but I have contributed to much of my intellect and courage to the defense one oppressed previously-privileged American that I am entitled to paste here what I just wrote on the FaceBook page of a 55-year friend from medical school who just bragged about himself and his Moslem classmates now being university clinical professors:
And NOT ONE Coptic Christian among them. I am sick and tired of the hypocrisy of Moslem Egyptians who loudly proclaim “the rights of the Palestinian people” but NEVER a whisper about the rights of the Coptic people. In my medical school class, Coptic Christians were about 40% of the class; and EVERY ONE OF THEM got admitted to medical school based ONLY on the anonymously-graded entrance exam. But what happens in the medical school oral examinations is the opposite: when the neo-Islamist examiners see our Christian names like “Marie” and “Demiana” for females and “Tadros” and “Gergis” for males, or see the cross hanging from our necks or tattooed on our wrists, we easily get HALF THE GRADE a Moslem colleague gets for the same answer to the same medical question. I am almost certain Ayman will delete this post of mine and/or unfriend me after this post, which will only expose his hypocrisy. Ayman, Dr. Ashraf Sadek (a Coptic Christian) and I were on the same three-student Chemistry lab bench of the PNS year (which, for my American readers condensed the American four-year pre-med college into one in Egypt) because we were arranged according to our grade on the anonymously-graded examination and we were, so-to-speak, the intellectual aristocracy in a university system Nasser had tried his best to make egalitarian irrespective of social class. But Nasser, who had at one time sworn on the Qoran and the revolver gun allegiance to the Moslem Brotherhood, cared nothing about egalitarianism based on religion. To the contrary, appeasement of the Moslem Brotherhood (which later opposed Nasser and even tried to eliminate him) came at the expense of increasing oppression of Coptic Christian. During that PNS year, I ran for student council; and at least one colleague openly said he will never vote for a Christian. My entering medical school class included the second, the third, and the sixth highest admission-exam scorer IN THE WHOLE COUNTRY of Egypt; but at the end of medical school, NOT ONE of them, indeed not one of us Coptic Christians was offered a clinical residency, a pre-requisite for later clinical professorship. Are we to believe that ALL OF US, so academically-excellent on admission, were struck with a case of sudden stupidity on the other end of medical school? The way our Moslem colleagues looked at us upon the posting of the grades was even more insulting than the grades themselves after the “Coptic tax” was imposed on them. We were expected to accept our second-class citizen status, or even tolerated-ward status, in our own country as the natural, even divinely-ordained, order of things. Before unfriending me, just look at what prioritizing foreign Palestinians over native Coptic Christians did to BOTH Palestinians and Egyptians. Good bye Ayman, I will NOT unfriend you; but I know you will unfriend me, if for no other reason than that your friends who refused to vote for me for student council in late 1970 will pressure you to do so in late 2025. Things only got worse in those 55 years; and YOU were part of the problem by inaction if not by action, and by enjoying the elimination of at least 40% of the academic competition, based SOLELY on religion, not academic merit.

Whether FITS lets this comment of mine through on the initial article under which I posted it, it is worth pasting here too:
“Touch DNA” is no different from any other DNA of the same person.
“Touch DNA” is obtained from the nuclei of the skin cells shed from the skin all the time and sticking to the object touched.
Usual DNA is extracted from EITHER buccal swabs (also containing shed skin/mucosal cells lining the inner mouth cavity) or the nuclei of white blood cells or young (not fully formed) red blood cell. Mature human red blood cells have no nuclei.
So, for the same person (except in rare cases of mosaicism and/or chimerism), DNA is DNA. By pure sequencing, you cannot tell which cell that DNA came from.
So. Maggie’s DNA being found on the spent cartridges MORE LIKELY means those cartridges were contaminated with Maggie’s blood AFTER THE SHOOTING.
It does NOT NECESSARILY mean that Maggie had ever touched those cartridges while alive.
Also, it it more likely than not means that the real killer(s) brought with them Paul’s stolen guns which were at least two.
After seeing that BOTH Paul’s and Maggie’s INITIAL shots were non-fatal and NOT aimed at the head, I REASONABLY INFERRED that the shooter was a female trained in hunting game animals, not killing humans in military combat or in law-enforcement activity, BECAUSE the shooter(s) by muscle memory INITIALLY aimed at the height of a game animal’s head, not a human head, and aimed at the human head only after the first shots left the intended victims alive.
And I have several PLAUSIBLE theories AND NAMES of who those likely female real killers are and how each of them would have had access to Paul’s stolen guns or had earlier stolen them herself.

And this comment, too, “separating fact from fiction” on Mark Tinsley’s lawsuit, is worth pasting here. Prove me wrong if you can:
What Mark Tinsley had filed was ONLY a motion, which could have been granted OR DENIED.
I am NOT a lawyer but have been told by AT LEAST TWO judges that I am BETTER than lawyers who practice before them. So, I know things.
Motions for net worth of the defendant are RARELY IF EVER granted so early in the litigation BECAUSE a civil defendant’s net worth is relevant ONLY if a question of PUNITIVE DAMAGES is submitted to the jury,
WHAT COURTS USUALLY DO, it they grant a motion for net worth at all, is instruct the civil defendant to show up for trial with a statement of net worth AT THE TIME OF THE TRIAL, not at the time of event(s) giving rise to the civil law suit.
That practice is related to the FUNCTION of punitive damages: not to compensate the plaintiff but to make an example of the defendant. That is done by assessing punitive damages based on net worth AT THE TIME OF THE VERDICT.
Mark Tinsley’s law suit against the Murdaughs was at least many months earlier than a jury verdict stage: it could have been dismissed altogether because “bad parenting” of an adult child is NOT a recognized cause of action in South Carolina, or because the plaintiff did not allege enough facts, or because Mallory beach was contributorily negligent by WILLINGLY getting on that boat with a drunk Paul, or because others. such as Mallory Beach’s boyfriend did NOT rescue her but let go of her to save his own life.
Even if the civil case had survived to trial, the judge might not have submitted a punitive damages question to a jury because the plaintiff may not have proven malice, or the jury may have returned a large punitive damages verdict.
That no one else is explaining all that to you proves the judges who complimented me as better than lawyers correct.
I just hope this reply of mine does not get deleted.

Hahaha this:
Paul and Maggie were killed EXACTLY one week after FITSNews tightened its free-articles policy to generate more subscription to pay the salaries of Mandy and Liz, who had just been hired at FITS.
In her book, Mandy (who had conveniently arranged for herself and her then-fiance David to be vacationing offshore) tells of David pulling out the podcasting equipment (which, for some undisclosed reason, Mandy and David had taken with them on their “vacation”) and starting broadcasting THE MINUTE Liz called from the Low Country with news of Paul and Maggie’s death.
Coincidences you think?
Then, for clincher, read this comment of mine on Jenn Wood’s most recent Week-in-Review interview:
Jenn Wood, dear, “phenomenal acting” or not, HULU’s purpose is clear: consolidate Alex Murdaugh’s wrongful convictions by falsification or insinuation.
HULU reversed the order of Gloria Satterfield’s and Mallory Beach’s lives ending to INSINUATE that Alex caused Gloria to be pushed off the stairs and die so he could get a settlement out of it and misdirect it to paying for the boat crash.
No one would ask how Alex could possibly have known that Gloria’ fall from a small height would be fatal. Instead, everyone would be basking in the glory of their non-existent intelligence in making the connection.
Can there be any other explanation for reversing the order of events?

Ultra-processed! Make America Healthy Once and For All (“MAHOFA”)!

SubZeroIQ November 12, 2025 at 5:20 am

Speaking of making and/or keeping America healthy, and of Alex’s secrets and “crimes,” here is my response to a comment on FITS’ most recent Week-in-Review:
I am “talking about” “people like” highway patrolman Thomas Moore and now-aspiring politician JJ, both of whom are now clients of Ever-Bluffing Eric Bland (“EBEB”), and both of whom appeared on talk shows and testified against Richard Alexander Murdaugh (“RAM”) in court in bond hearing(s) and/or in sentencing hearing(s) related to RAM’s so-called “financial crimes.”
Both Moore (white) and JJ (black) appeared as strong as oxen and IMPLICITLY admitted having received larger than expected settlements EVEN AFTER a clandestine cut RAM had kept for himself.
Moore even, in my opinion free from false humility, tried to obstruct justice by going and harassing the wonderful Dr. Erin Presnell to make her change her diagnosis of vehicle-versus-pedestrian collision after she had performed the first autopsy on Stephen Smith. Moore wanted Dr. Presnell to change her diagnosis to a strike with a baseball bat or gunshot wound or some figment of Moore’s fabrications intended to frame the innocent Buster Murdaugh and perhaps Paul, too.
Of course, the second autopsy performed on Stephen Smith, performed at tax-payer’s expense after EBEB’s nagging despite EBEB having collected $100K+ from a Go-Fund-Me page purported to fund that second autopsy, and performed by EBEB’s hand-picked pathologists, only CONFIRMED Dr. Presnell’s initial diagnosis.
EBEB still does his best to hush the result of that second autopsy and to hide where the Go-Fund-Me loot went. But that is for another day and another comment.
The present point is: not everyone whose tire separates receives any compensation, or even replacement of the defective tire, whether or not human injury results.
It takes a lawyer like RAM with a vast network of soft-bribed/soft-threatened insurance adjustors, insurance defense lawyers, and even judges, to extract such huge settlements.
I, for example, bought four expensive tires WITH INSURANCE from a name nation-wide company; and, at different times, each of the four tires separated while relatively new and still under warranty; but that company refused to replace them because they stopped making that size. That company refused to even refund me the price of the replacement tires I had to buy from another company. And no lawyer would represent me in small-claims court for such a relatively small amount.
Had RAM been still in practice, all it would have taken would have been a phone call from him to the tire company for four free replacement tires to have been delivered to me with a proverbial bow on them.
Incidentally, on cross-examination, RAM testified he had represented clients in cases as small as a $50 overpayment to a cable company. Creighton Waters did NOT challenge RAM on that aspect of his past law practice.
MY POINT IS: part of the loot RAM secretly kept out the settlements was not ALL out of RAM’s personal greed but was to continue feeding into the vast network of soft bribes/soft threats that made such disproportionate settlements possible.
Incidentally, too, faced by a plaintiff’s lawyer other than RAM, the tire companies could/would have (successfully?) challenged the Plyler and Pinckney cases as caused by the distraction of the driver(s), not the tire separation.
And MOST SIGNIFICANTLY, none of those so-called RAM “victims” did anything to prevent the tire companies from continuing TO THIS DAY to make tires that separate.
Failure/refusal to prevent FUTURE human injury is, in my opinion free from false humility, the REAL crime in all the stories of RAM’s so-called “financial crimes.”
And EBEB and Creighton Waters are collaborators in those failure-of-prevention crimes. Did Creighton Waters or Alan Wilson or anyone in between refer the separating-tire-makers for criminal investigation into POSSIBLY criminally-negligent tire-making?
Of course not. Lawyers of all colors and positions are not about preventing human injury; they are about making money off it or allowing their friends, relatives, and/or future employers to do so.
Now, you tell me: who are the real victims here?

SubZeroIQ November 16, 2025 at 10:51 am

Because I encourage separating fact from fiction, I paste here one of my comments on FITS’ last week, not yesterday’s, Week-in-Review:
Will Folks, at 5:54, can’t you ever outgrow your tendency to tell untruth even as you claim heroics in pursuing the actual facts and going where they take you?
Richard Alexander Murdaugh (“RAM”) NEVER claimed “he was 20 miles away” at 8:44 pm on 7 June 2021.
What RAM always TRUTHFULLY said was that SOME TIME after dinner he went to see his mother at Almeida.
Only in the fictional media is RAM ever portrayed as saying, “I never went to the kennels.”
He does NOT say that phrase in ANY of the three video-taped interviews with law enforcement.
Half-truths ARE lies. So, in emphasizing that RAM initially lied by omitting the brief kennels visit, PLEASE don’t commit the lie of FALSELY claiming that RAM ever pretended to have been at Almeida at 8:44 pm.
Again, because I explained n times that the contents of Paul’s and Maggie’s stomachs at autopsy rule out the victims’ lives having ended as early as ONLY 22 minutes after their large, and relatively fatty, last meal, that 8:44 pm video has absolutely NO INCULPATORY value.
Otherwise, please keep pursuing the whole truth and tell it whole and pure.

One more broadcast for Alex to be unhappy about: A new CW 3-part series.
Here is my comment on it lest they remove it there?
Not a word about Becky Hill’s indictment? Not a word about the second autopsy of Stephen Smith confirming the result of the first autopsy? And not a word about Gloria Satterfield’s death having been IN HOSPITAL due to pre-existing conditions, NOT her fall at Moselle? The Satterfield estate already got $10 MILLION for the demise of their chronic diabetic relative; and Eric Bland STILL wants $4.3 million more?
Who are the greedy ones here? Who are the evil ones here?
At least HULU disclaimed its broadcast as drama. What is YOUR excuse for presenting this garbage as journalism?
And, in case anyone missed my numerous previous posts about this: the Prosecution’s claimed moment of the end of the victims’ life is WRONG. At autopsy, the food in Maggie’s and Paul’s stomachs was too little and too digested for their lives to have ended only 22 minutes after their KNOWN large, and relatively fatty, last meal.
Liz Farrell said one, BUT ONLY ONE, truth: Social media defeated the Murdaughs.
But who was behind that social media?

Alex should be even more unhappy with CW’s just released so-called “documentary,” which tries to re-kindle the debate on whether Alex said “they” of “I” or “that.”
Here is my reply to a commenter who heard “that was so bad.”?
“@Therezumee92 , what really matters is the TRUE time of shooting, not the Prosecution’s weird idea that peoples’ lives end when the batteries on their cell phones are at 0% charge.

Without admitting who stoked that social media against the Murdaughs, Liz Farrell’s statement about social media is only a half truth; it is thus as much of a lie as Alex’s omission of his brief visit to the kennels before leaving for Almeida.

And here is my reply to another commenter on that CW faux documentary:
? @marycahill546 , your obsession with framing Richard Alexander Murdaugh (“RAM”) is as puzzling (because you sound more educated than the others and I could not detect an OBVIOUS financial interest of yours in the matter) as it is self-betraying and self-defeating.
Let’s be logical here:
Are you saying that cell phones have a MAGICAL mechanism which makes them lock REGARDLESS OF BATTERY POWER as soon as the owner is shot?
And how would the cell phone know that its owner is shot anyway?
Or are you saying that RAM locked Maggie’s phone BEFORE shooting her?
If so, then Maggie could have been shot ANY TIME, even a whole hour, AFTER her cell phone locked.
That would mean that Maggie could have been shot by any one at any time between the time her phone locked and the time RAM discovered Maggie’s body.
Same with Paul with this added question: since RAM was at the kennels while Paul took that TOTALLY irrelevant and useless video of by-then-perfect-looking Cash’s tail, why would RAM not have also taken Paul’s phone and disposed of it along with Maggie’s phone?
And here is a clincher: if RAM went to such great trouble to get rid of Maggie’s cell phone the night of 7 June 2021, why would RAM be in such hurry and panic to help SLED locate it the morning of 8 June 2021?
Just to save you time inventing more untenable explanations, MY explanation is that Maggie had laid her cell phone down on her bike or on the side-by-side or somewhere to have BOTH HANDS free to handle the dogs. The REAL killers (and they were several) found it and had to get rid of it BEFORE the attack lest it record what happened and/or lest Maggie reaches for it to call for help.
Please use your education to think sensibly.

Hope, faith, and love. Thank God, I have plenty of the latter two; but it is the first where I pray most for God to sustain in me.
The challenges to my hope keep increasing with things like that CW faux “documentary” and comments which, once they read and understand my explanation, delude themselves into believing the Prosecution could have done no wrong but probably factored-in the stomach-contents method of determining the time of death.
Au contraire: the Prosecution could do no right.
The Prosecution knew, and could not not have known (double negative intended) that Paul and Maggie’s stomach contents at autopsy firmly exonerate Richard Alexander Murdaugh (“RAM”) as his alibi for 9:30 pm on 7 June 2021, the REAL TIME of the shootings, is confirmed by BOTH RAM’s cell phone AND the digital data of his car.
I am so exhausted.
I just had to type this reply to a commenter on that CW faux “documentary”:
? @Therezumee92 , au contraire. Were the Prosecution basing their time line on the medical examiner (different in South Carolina from “the coroner”), there would have no case to even take to the grand jury.
The medical examiner’s findings put the shootings around 9:30 pm, when BOTH Alex’s cell phone data AND car data put him at Almeida.
I regret not having seen your comment earlier. I would not have ignored you.

Barbara Ann Mixson appears to be the only one of Alex’s former employees, colleagues and clients, who has not so far sold him for money or to save their own skins.
This is what I wrote about Blanca’s today’s interview with Will Folks, in which Blanca mentions Barbara BTW:
At 23: 01 Blanca WRONGLY assumes no one else had gone into the house that night.
In fact, Blanca did NOT know about Paul and Maggie until THE MORNING AFTER when Alex called her from Almeda and asked her to go tidy Moselle up for visitors.
By then, AT LEAST TEN OTHER PEOPLE had been to the house that night, INCLUDING Mark Ball and his wife and Buster and Brooklyn.
So, whatever was done to the laundry room was DEFINITELY not done by Alex, who NEVER entered the house after getting a gun after discovering the bodies.
Don’t take my word. Take the transcripts of the trial testimony.
Blanca has to say Alex did it to sell her book just as Becky Hill had to push for a guilty verdict to sell her book.
What people would not do to innocent others for money!

Fiction comes from all directions, not just HULU.
Now Blanca tells us that, because a man took his own towel to his own car, he murdered his wife and younger son both of whom he adored and treated lovingly according to Blanca herself.
To separate fact from fiction, Blanca had left Moselle on 7 June 2021 LONG before Richard Alexander Murdaugh (“RAM”) had returned from work and Paul had arrived to Moselle from work at John Marvin’s tractor shop at Okatee.
In Paul’s tree-shrub video, RAM is seen wearing what Blanca described RAM as wearing to work in the morning minus the sport jacket.
It makes perfect sense that after six hours in the office in that outfit plus two or so hours riding around Moselle with Paul in that hot and humid day, RAM would have showered and changed into the more comfortable outfit he wore to see his mother in Almeda.
RAM could have showered and changed before or after dinner.
RAM also had to rush to Almeda to comfort his agitated mother before her sleeping time. Were RAM the real killer, he would have spent the night in there in the empty bed of his terminal hospitalized father and left the bodies to be discovered by a Moselle worker in the morning.
It also makes perfect sense that RAM would take a towel to the even hotter and more humid kennels to dry his own perspiration.
Where other than his own car would RAM leave that towel?
How that proves RAM shot his wife and younger son is beyond my SubZeroIQ.
But perhaps one of you Einsteins can explain it to me.

Following Napoleon Bonaparte’s “cherchez la femme,” voici des femmes who COULD have been the real shooters of Paul and Maggie:
? @Carrie-k1m3i and ? @KarenSmith-g8e , at least three young women in possession of Paul’s previously-stolen guns and with some training in hunting game animals but no training on shooting humans as in the military or in law enforcement.
I drew that conclusion from the fact that the first shots at each of Paul and Maggie were, due to muscle memory, aimed to the height of a game animal’s head, not a human head.
The list of POSSIBLE candidates starts with Paul’s ex-girl friend who had had a love-hate relationship with Paul and had, ironically, been taught to hunt by the Murdaugh’s themselves.
The list goes through Gloria Satterfield’s sister, Ginger, and ends with Mark Tinsley’s daughter, Emma, who had had a love-hate relationship with her father after he divorced Emma’s mother. But, according to “The Devil at His Elbow,” a book by Valerie Bauerlein (who is now a paid publicist for Mark Tinsley in his new Spivey case), Emma “returned to [Mark]” after the Murdaugh shootings.
Add an unexplored Lesbian by the name of Olivia Boyles; and an unnamed woman who jumped off a bridge the night of the shootings.
Also worth considering is an email from Private Investigator Sara Capelli sent Mark Tinsley an email overflowing with guilt that Sara had caused Paul’s demise.
A common thread tying all those women (except possibly Sara and Emma) is that Mandy Matney had privately interviewed them before the shootings after she began a public campaign (which allegedly included laisons with her sources) to demonize Paul and get him indicted for the boat crash.
Mandy Matney also rabidly and publicly campaigned to frame Buster (and Paul) for Stephen Smith’s death. Even though that part failed, no one apologized to Buster. Instead, a separately convicted fraudster, now widely-read blogger, taunted Alex after his life sentences, “Your son is next, Alex. Justice for Stephen Smith!” Remember that?
And you still don’t want to believe that Murdaughs get falsely accused BECAUSE. and in spite, of their name?

Someone PLEASE explain to me that “Wow!” at minute 3:54 of today’s FITSTube’s Week-in-Review:
“Wow!” indeed!.
A part-time house keeper launders and folds four towels and lays them on the laundry room shelf, cooks dinner and leaves the covered pot on the stove, then leaves circa 2:00 pm on a hot humid Low Country day.
The 6’4″ house owner returns home from work at his law office circa 6:00 pm, takes off the sport coat he had donned over his blue shirt and kaki pants and rides around with his younger son, who incidentally films the father lN THOSE CLOTHES looking at an unsteady sapling circa 7:30 pm. Dinner followed by coffee is from 8:00 pm to 8:30 pm, preceded or followed by a shower and a change from the office clothes to more casual and comfortable T and shorts.
The sweaty 6’4″ man takes his own towel to his own car to wipe his own perspiration on the ride to and from the home of his own Alzheimer-inflicted mother.
“Wow” indeed!
Crucify him! Crucify him! Spit on him on the way to crucifixion! Ridicule, intimidate and insult, anyone who tries to comfort him!
What was Richard Alexander Murdaugh (“RAM”) supposed to have done? Seek a judicial warrant before entering the laundry room of his own house to get a towel from it?
Keep those four towels in a specially-built shrine because Blanca had, in her own mind, designated them “for Edisto”?
Stay outside of his own home altogether until Blanca returns to allow him in?
That is what I call “Oh! the sun rose from the east that day, therefore, the defendant shot the victim that day” kind of rogue prosecutorial argument.
Do people lose ALL their common sense whenever and wherever the RAM name is heard?
Or does greed make people lose all self-respect?

Alex might get a chuckle from a commenter writing “Murdaugh towels never left the house.”
Does his defense team wish to add to my reply (pasted hereunder) to her?
? @marycahill546 , here you go again!
What was so sacrosanct about “the Murdaugh towels”? Were they maidens in a an ancient Ottoman harem? Or babies who could crawl but not walk? Or nuns in a Carmelite convent?
And if “he hosed off blood off of him at the kennels” why return to the house to get a museum-quality towel? Couldn’t he have left himself wet or grabbed something from the kennels to dry himself?
And why would he drive home buck naked just to get to the house anyway?
Really, what is it about you that makes repeat such nonsense?
You take the cake.

Not for Richard Alexander Murdaugh (“RAM”) to be more unhappy but to have his defense team join me in demanding URGENT action:
Will Folks interviewed Blanca Simpson and ran it on FITSTube/YouTube.
At minute 34:28 Blanca deserves an Oscar BUT at the same time makes a Freudian slip: “that [RAM] left them there. That is the hurtful part to me.”
RAM left Paul and Maggie ALIVE in the kennels. But Blanca’s slip implies that RAM knew who was planning or threatening to shoot them that night. She admits she knows who “helped” in the shootings.
Whoever supposedly “helped” in the shootings could have been THE shooter(s).
Remember? The hand of one is the hand of all. Or is law applied selectively in this state?
THIS CANNOT BE LEFT AT THAT. Ignoring Blanca’s statement is obstruction of justice.
No matter Will Folks’ friendship with Alan Wilson or Dylan Nolan’s loyalty to his former boss, same Alan Wilson, BOTH Will and Dylan must FORMALLY request Alan Wilson to ask the AG of another state to investigate the knowledge, if any, behind Blanca’s statement that she knows who “helped” AND IMMEDIATELY RELEASE THE RESULTS OF THE INVESTIGATION to the public.
If it turns out that Blanca was bluffing and simply teasing knowledge she does not have to promote sales of her book, sales must be IMMEDIATELY halted and her book de-published.
Society cannot have obstructors of justice profiting from publications of their obstruction.
Petting a dog does NOT make you a saint and does NOT mitigate obstruction of justice.
And while Alan Wilson is at it, if he ever gets to it, he should get that AG from another state to look at BOTH “Cousin Eddie’s” cases and SLED’s supposed “progress” in the investigation of Stephen Smith’s demise. Specifically, if undue pressure had been applied to SLED to waste tax-payer money on a second autopsy of Stephen Smith (which only confirmed the diagnosis of the first autopsy), all AFTER Sanctimonious Sandy Smith (“SSS”), Malicious Mandy Matney (“MMM”), and Ever-Bluffing Eric Bland (“EBEB”), had schemed to, and did, raise over $100K on Go-Fund-Me to pay for that second autopsy.
Don’t accuse me of asking or expecting too much.
Paraphrasing a Republican politician from the 20th Century, extremism in the pursuit of justice, transparency, and integrity, is no vice.
God speed to you and to me.

I have to everyone who read on this thread my comments “as are” to Blanca Simpson’s interviews, to paste here too my:
“Self-correction: Apparently Richard Alexander Murdaugh (“RAM”) did enter the Moselle house, but ONLY ONCE MORE after getting the gun after discovering the bodies. RAM was asked by the first responders for his clothes, the white T and shorts RAM had on when he called 911. So, RAM had to enter the house at Moselle to take these off and put something else on. I do not recall enough of the trial transcript to know what he put on instead. But I am sure the blue shirt RAM had on during that videotaped interview with SLED inside a vehicle looks A WHOLE LOT LIKE the blue shirt RAM had on in Paul’s video with the sapling which would not remain upright.”
I also add that, in most, if not all, of the videos and photos of RAM between and including the morning of 8 June 2021 until his last day of freedom, RAM is wearing a vertical-stripes blue shirt and kaki pants or shorts.
I have no time or software to filter out the light effect off those several videos and photos and determine whether one of those shirts IS the one from Paul’s 7 June 2021 circa 7:30 pm video. But someone should do that easy investigation to put to rest the unfair and unfounded rumors that RAM wore that shirt to the kennels and destroyed it later.
God speed and God bless.

Alex should today be thankful for my existence, my knowledge, and my courage to post to Will Folks’ Blanca interview replies such as this to one who pretended I “clearly do not know the facts of the case”:
?”@mandychadwick8762 , I (1) watched ALL Richard Alexander Murdaugh’s (“RAM”) two-murder trial; (2) read ALL documents in the federal case where it was revealed that the whole Gloria case was an insurance fraud fabrication about dogs having tripped her, etc.; (3) PERSONALLY know MOST of the prosecutors in the state criminal trial and many of the insurance defense lawyers in the federal civil case; so, I know what tactics they are capable of cold-bloodedly and unscrupulously deploying; (4) had in 2009-2012 defended myself WITHOUT A LAWYER, mainly in the court of none other than Judge Clifton Newman, and, thank God, first prevented a jury from returning a wrongful conviction of me; and later, always thanks to God and STILL WITHOUT A LAWYER, I got those false criminal charges against myself dismissed WITH PREJUDICE; and (5) am a quadrilingual MD, MPH who, in my much younger years, performed 48 autopsies which required meticulous medical records review to correctly diagnose the main cause and contributory causes of death.
So, what is it that you think you know about this case more than I do?”
This invitation to supply any more real facts is extended to all readers of this outlet.

The elements of America’s greatness are also the remedies for its salvation. The answer is at the end of this pasted reply to a commenter on FITSTube:
? @RJ1234-d1s , repeating a falsehood ever more frequently and ever louder never makes it true in the end.
Has anyone EVER answered with OBJECTIVE science my assertion that the shootings COULD NOT HAVE happened as early as only 22 minutes after the victims’ KNOWN large, and relatively fatty, last meal?
This time I call on pathologists of conscience, I even call on FITSTube or Jenn Wood to interview Dr. Michelle Duprey (Eric Bland’s hand-picked pathologist for Stephen Smith’s “second autopsy”) about BOTH (1) the timing of demise by stomach contents as related to contents and quantity of last meal; AND (2) Stephen Smith’s “second autopsy” having confirmed that he died where his body was found as a result of vehicle versus pedestrian collision.
America cannot be great without BOTH the Constitution and true science.
Do NOT destroy both in the service of vendetta and greed of a chosen few against chosen fewer.
