Another suspicion mentioned on Podcasts is possible Offshore accounts, but I also think Gambling is very possible. He's such a Sociopath, that he can convince people of lies, making them doubt themselves. Mob mentality to the Max.

I think gambling and trafficking. When AM went to jail JM took Buster to Vegas for the weekend.

What does Curtis ‘Cousin Eddie’ Smith know in Murdaugh case?

The attorney representing Smith believes her client will be a star witness in Murdaugh’s trial.

The attorney representing Smith, however, believes her client will be a star witness in Murdaugh’s trial and that as a result, Smith’s name will be cleared.

Alleged Alex Murdaugh accomplice, Curtis Smith, arrested

“I believe that when he (Murdaugh) lured Eddie out to the side of the road, he was gonna kill him and blame this whole thing on him … I firmly believe that was what was gonna happen,” Aimee Zmroczek said Monday during an appearance on “Banfield.”

I had to step out, is it over for today?

Yes. Back at 9:30 tomorrow morning.

I don't think this will benefit the defense at all. It is not really believable that Alex hired him to kill him (especially since there is no payment for that). I think that man was set up just like every other person in Alex's life. The only person that knew the plan was Alex.

SBM

DH stated that the policy WOULD have paid out even if it was suicide because of the length of the policy. He stated AM didn't know that.

One thing that I'll note is that Curtis Eddie Smith was also charged with trafficking Methamphetamine, a drug zero people have testified to AM using. The amount he was charged with is easily a recreational amount. (10-28 grams).

I have family/friends tied up in that world and I can tell you stories just as crazy (and maybe crazier) than to ask someone to shoot them and for the other to oblige.

Don't get me wrong, AM is a piece of garbage and I'm not defending him. The sums/stories don't add up to me and I think there is more to this story and I haven't ruled out Eddie Smith's involvement in everything.

I think AM is trying to muddy up the names of people who have substantial dirt on him in the interview with DH/police. That way he can do damage to their credibility in advance. One of them is on the list of witnesses for the murder trial, and I think she knows something important. It is total speculation on my part. Maybe the "He is up to something" quote.

I have been struggling to find the right metaphor for how AM conducts his close relationships with family, friends, co-workers, CES. I feel like every relationship in his life has an expiration date. He is able to lavish these people with his attention and superficial charm, knowing that it won't last forever.

On the expiration date, he extracts maximum usage out of the person and then discards them. People who still trust AM just have not reached their expiration date, yet, and for some reason, they are not seeing the pile of wreckage of AM's other victims. They are still in his bubble.

He is also able to hush up any public talk about his crimes through power, intimidation, manipulation, and the art of BS.

He'll bring you close so he can repurpose you and mine you for his needs, and then he'll leave you like a pile of useless rubble. What bewilders me is how his intimate circle does not see the pattern until it is too late. It is like they don't see the weird extractor claws pop out until it is their time.

He should be on the cover of psychopath magazine.

Miss Libby's house might be a good hiding place (for items involved in crime) for a certain someone.

That amount makes no sense. The going rate for oxycodone was about $1/mg last time I checked. That would work out to about a thousand oxycodone pills a week. If he were going for something like Dilaudid that would cost more, but not this much. This sounds like a money laundering scheme.

That’s my bet completely

 

[Not a Belle]

I have thought the SAME thing! There is NO WAY he was THAT Addicted. I honestly believe that he was involved in a drug running cartel and THEY shot and killed Maggie and Paul in front of Alex....

I think Alex would be thrilled for people to believe this. Personally it doesn’t fit IMO; I don’t see AM as being self-sacrificing enough to keep it to himself.

Why the early day?

The Cross examination will take a long time apparently.

Yes, $1 per mg but IF he was going thru that many pills he would be getting a steep discount. There is definitely something else going on there.

Looks nothing like Cousin Eddie that's for sure

This is worth re-posting. MM was not ran over by an ATV or another motor vehicle.

• Waters: Is it your expert opinion that that mark on the back of Maggie’s leg is a tire tread impression and nothing else? Kinsey: “That is a tire tread impression. That is my opinion.” So, someone ran over Maggie with the ATV?
• Kinsey says the impression on Maggie's calf is consistent with the ATV tire tread. Waters wonders if it is consistent with Maggie backing up into the ATV. How did it get there? "I saw no evidence that she was run over," Kinsey says.

Why the early day?

This was planned in advance for some reason and I don’t recall why

Hahaha, a real nice guy who was out to kill me.

I think he was definitely going to take Eddie down and blame him for the murders.

I agree. Lure and kill. He knew how. However, he was not dealing with innocents.

 

[Seattle1]

Wasn't he money laundering and not just purchasing drugs? He appeared to be making those huge purchases, but isn't it possible most of the money went...elsewhere?

I missed the testimony about the drug purchases - who testified that he was spending $50,000 a week?

Right now this allegation about $50K a week disbursed to CES is coming from AM's mouth but the evidence is not part of this case.

The financial crimes indictment cites AM wrote checks in excess of $2.3M to CES over an 8-year period.

Defense doesn’t have a break long enough. The man behind the curtain was exposed.
