There are lots of comments on here casting Alec as a terrible father, husband, employer and friend. I don’t think I’ve heard any testimony that would suggest that prior to the boat wreck, Alec was an evil man. In fact, all who had contact with him, seemed to like him and this whole murder episode shocked them.
It was after the boat wreck, where Maggie claims they were being sued for 30 million when everything changed. Alec went into full squirrel mode, hiding and stealing any money he could get his hands on.
Did the 4.3 million, Satterfield settlement that Alec stole happen after the boat wreck?
Is there record of him stealing prior to the boat wreck?
There are records of him stealing and running his financial schemes prior to the boat crash.
How much AM was “liked” in the community has to be gauged on influence the Murdaugh family wielded in that area for generations. For decades they decided who faced criminal charges and who did not, who was guilty and who was innocent, who was given a chance at a better life and who was not. They bought juries, ran liquor, did as they pleased. People realized it was beneficial to “like” the Murdaughs.
When I think of AM I see a man that stole from orphans, and the most vulnerable. He had everything…and still chose to steal from people who had nothing. There is nothing likable about AM.
