SC - Paul Murdaugh, 22 and mom Margaret, 52, found shot to death, Islandton, 7 June 2021 #10

[Lux et Veritas]

We know that AM hadn't tried a case at PMPED since 2019. Has he been spending the majority of his time operating the (alleged) drug running empire his client and business partner, Barrett T. Boulware - who died in 2018 - bequeathed to him?

The AM cesspool may be way deeper than we realize.

Totally my own thoughts here. I have not read about this either. Is there a puppet master in the background? Someone who finally had or witnessed enough bulls*** to set off the train wreck that is happening. I think AM is the true target here. Maybe someone wants to see him suffer. His wife and son are murdered and the walls of his empire are coming down.

I think there may have been. Alex's dad. Alex attended to him so closely. He saw him just before, and the next day after the murders and this still feels way too coincidental - that he was doing all this by himself. Alex had worked with (for?) his dad at the firm. Was Alex cut off now? Did dad wield a major financial blow, thus setting Alex off? This, along with the coming financial disclosure demands, could have been a trigger.
MOO

HOT NEWS:

Alex Murdaugh ARRESTED for 'syphoning off $4.3M settlement for sons of his housekeeper who died in trip and fall at his home' | Daily Mail, 14 Oct 2021

Alex Murdaugh has been arrested on his release from rehab in Florida for allegedly syphoning off a $4.3 million settlement meant for the sons of his housekeeper, who died in a mysterious 'trip and fall' at his home in 2018.

Murdaugh, who was charged last month over a botched hitman scheme, and is a person of interest in his wife and son's double murder, was taken into custody Thursday morning in Orlando by agents with the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

The 53 year-old had been in the city to receive treatment for an opioid addiction after being bailed on the hitman charges on September 17. Cops did not disclose the name of the rehab facility he had been staying at.

He is being held in Orange County Correctional Facility near Orlando, ahead of his extradition back to South Carolina.

Cops in Florida have yet to say when Murdaugh will appear for that hearing, but Murdaugh's lawyers say they expect him to appear before a bond hearing in Beaufort County, South Carolina, on Friday over the latest charges.

I wonder if SLED had any real suspicions of AM, would they have given enough slack line for him to go to Florida? I just keep having doubts of him being the perp.

Are you meaning perp, as in responsible for murder of MM and PM? I think if he wasn’t directly responsible for the June 7 murders, someone in his dark world was. It’s feeling like he was in deep with the alleged “Boll Weevil” drug runners and/or some other organized crime who became unhappy with him. JMO.

I imagine it's lounging on some sunny Cayman Islands beach, sipping a pina colada.

Sounds like a John Grisham novel, doesn't it?

Where is everybody?

HE finally got arrested and we now know he actually WAS in rehab. Thought the wires would be buzzing!

Until it's confirmed by LE I don't believe anything. So yes, he's been arrested.

Behind paywall. Can’t get more than this, but Randy says he has a conflict of interest:

I don't believe anything either one of his attorneys says.

moo

You know what is truly astounding? These people have lied all of their lives. They lie like rugs. Yet for all of that practice they suck at it. Boggles the mind, it does.

Yup. They can see the writing on the wall that AM might be charged with their murders and they are trying to get out ahead of that.
But my question is...what do The Pootster and Griffin get out of defending this ******* publically? He clearly can't pay them. (perhaps RM is funding the defense?) And they aren't likely to win, particularly in the court of public opinion. So what is their upside? Or do they have things to hide themselves?

ETA: typo

Come to my aid or else type of thing? The way this is all spreading out into different professions and going strong, picking up speed...yeah I can see that being a possibility. AJMO

Did't AM just recently give BM power of attorney to collect a million bucks in paid off mortgage loan fees from someone in that family?

There's the money to pay your lawyers. He probably has other such mortgage loans outstanding?

Speaking of Buster, I wonder what dinner conversations were like between those two before Pops tried to murder, um, I mean kill his self? And what conversations are like now from jail. The number one, only one, suspect in his mother and brother's murder is his father. Would love to know who Buster thinks killed his mom and brother. Jmo

 

[minusfour]

Well yay! AM's in jail, at least for one night! The statement thanking police for their hard work over the past four months sounds promising too. Hopefully there will be some answers soon.

Griffin said he wasn't surprised that Murdaugh had been arrested in the Satterfield case, but he was shocked at the timing. Murdaugh had just finished his program at the Florida rehab facility and was set to enter another two- to four-week program at a less-intensive facility within the same health care organization, Griffin said.

[everybodhi]

After sleeping all night on a hard surface under florescent lights, it's almost time to wake up AM to get in line for his jailhouse breakfast.
That's the way it goes.
I assume he's on suicide watch, considering his background.
