Right now I don't trust ONE, SINGLE, THING that is coming out of anyone's mouth down here ( I'm local). I don't trust the Murdaughs. I certainly don't trust law enforcement. I don't trust the lawyers. I don't trust the judges. I don't trust the city, county or state. And I especially don't trust the media at this point because they are being fed lies if anything at all. I definitely don't trust Fitsnews. Look them up and I'll leave it at that. Hell, I don't even trust the evidence. What little of it there is.
This is Good Old Boy Southern Charm at it's finest. The Good Old Boy Network spans generations and bloodlines. It's exclusive, expensive and powerful. When something upsets The Network the wagons are circled so to speak and things get handled internally. That's why we haven't heard a whole lot about this case. Time is needed to get things in order and find a solution to ensure that The Network can continue to operate the way it has for hundreds of years. Then and only then will the "story" come out....maybe. We may never know the truth unfortunately. Of course this is just my opinion.
There are 5 violent deaths and a drive by shooting associated around the Murdaugh family right now. There are millions of dollars missing from a high-powered law firm that AM admittedly stole. There is drug addiction. There's questions....so many, many questions.
Something stinks in the Low Country and it's not because the tide is low.

Hi, all! I'm new here & got sucked into the Murdaugh case when I read about the shocking murders in June. Recently, I found this site due to a mention on Twitter. And now I've been reading the most recent threads about all this & am appreciating all your posts.
Derph, I totally agree.
My various thoughts....
One: After the murders in June, other than the mention of reopening the SS case, mostly we have had radar silence from various LE groups. Reading about the contentious findings in the SS case makes it clear that there were questionable things going on & there were definitely folks in the LE channels who were ok with getting the case closed even with suspicious findings (hit & run that doesn't look like a hit & run). Then there was the boating accident & the many steps that were circumvented (for example, PM never having a "real" mugshot as just one of so many examples) over & over again. Again, it makes me think there are more than a few complicit folks on the inside channels of various LE offices. Moo.
Imo, the various compromised folks throughout these offices are having an "oh, no" moment. Years & years of questionable actions. The Murdaugh murders (& now subsequent events) are shining a big light on places they don't want things seen. I am concerned that months of silence on the part of LE is not so much that they are busy investigating but rather spending all this time getting their own ducks in a row, basically a big CYA in process (moo). There will be a reckoning (I hope) but I do wonder if they are trying to ditch the skeletons (as many as possible, at least) in the closet prior to that reckoning. This is really why I wish there was an outside LE group (FBI? other group?) overseeing. I think local & state level LE possibly have too many compromised people who would have a vested interest in protecting themselves. If so, investigating what is going on with the Murdaugh cases may be secondary.
Two: The roadside AM situation last Saturday. Mentions have been made of a couple of lawyers from AM's firm going to the actual site of the incident & talking with LE (to let them know about AM's forced resignation over the missing money). While it seems really weird, I wonder if it may have to do with wanting to speak to LE in an "off the books" way? No phone calls or emails to have records of & they can provide info in person; they can gauge response in person & see/know who they are speaking with (especially if they know some LE are predisposed to helping the Murdaughs vs. ones who are not playing in that system). A "tread carefully if preparing to say anything against the local powerhouse family" situation, perhaps? They may have also been genuinely concerned it was a potential suicide attempt &/or an attempt to flee & wanted to make sure LE would handle the situation with the bombshell info in mind. Moo.
Three: The Good Samaritans who moved AM from the scene last Saturday. (I read about that here. Was that verified? There are so many updates/changes, it is hard to keep up.) It seems strange, but if you saw someone who was indeed shot/bleeding & offered help, but didn't know if the shooter might return, I think it would be wiser to move elsewhere while waiting on LE or an ambulance. Otherwise they would have been sitting ducks if it was indeed someone targeting AM.
Four: I hope BM is getting some support. His life has been upended in many shocking ways & it seems like there will still be many revelations to come. I really feel for MM's family too. This must be a horrifying nightmare for them. I also hope the dogs have been moved/are being taken care of.
