I'm getting Bob Bashara vibes from this arrest... Anyone else?

Our local sources have confirmed Smith is “known to (Murdaugh),” although they declined to elaborate on the nature of the relationship between the two men. One source close to the Murdaugh family described Smith as Alex Murdaugh’s “personal drug dealer.”

Meeting for the drugs? Couldn't pay for them?

Found an obit for Thomas Smith, Sr., son of late John and Emaline Murdaugh Smith and brother of Curtis Edward Smith. Sounds like Curtis is a family member to Alex!

Say whuuuut??

(Great find, @LotusPawprint !)

So AM gets his distant relative/drug dealer / legal client to do him a solid and graze him in the head on a back road?

No wonder he summoned a helicopter and got the hell outta Dodge! Wonder where he’s holed up now?

 

[shefner]

AM entered rehab to avoid his drug dealer and not LE, since he has previously been completely safe from the clutches of the long arm of the law.

Drug deal gone wrong?? It will be great if we see video feed from the church.

Yup! That’s exactly what I think happened. He needed help with staging something like that, and who else you going to reach out to?

 

[Snoopster]

What has Curtis "Eddie" Smith been charged with?

I'd love to know.

Was he chasing AM...looking for payment?
or, more likely (IMO), did he 'assist' in a fake shooting?, or was he the Good Samaritan (pre-arranged)?

 

[shefner]
