SC - Paul Murdaugh & mom Margaret Found Shot To Death - Alex Murdaugh Accused - Islandton #24

Did Curtis know this plan?

Think Cuz Eddie knew one plan but not the one AM had in mind for a backup plan.

 

[passionflower]

Oh boy, if that be the case…. I imagine we would have been in for some masterful and interesting developments from that scenario…. Where might that have led. Another money pile perhaps? IMO

Another money pile. To remaining son?

Ok ...we've established AM saying the killer "thought about this for a long time." And we've established he can read killer's minds. Lol!!

Since he can read their minds he knows there was no threat to Buster. And he "knows" cousin Eddie had nothing to do with the murders of MM and PM... Hmm...how does he know that??? Lol!!

A sprinkle of Fairy dust, eye of newt mixed with some gunpowder and crushed oxycodone and poof!.

I'm sure Defense can try to hand wave it by saying he was worried Cash was traumatized by what he witnessed and would be further upset with all the police coming, so he was letting Rogan know so that he could come and get Cash from the police.

Didn’t AM want to meet up with Rogan &
( luckily) Rogan did not? Sort of like Scott Peterson wanting to meet up with Amber.
If you feel you’re losing control of people who can take you down…you take them out.

MOO

If only the dogs could talk!

And this is the only reason they are still alive.

I found it very interesting that only one of the dogs, IMO, was intermittently barking when AM was making the 911 call. ALL of the other dogs were silent, and there were something like 7 dogs out there? It was almost like that one dog was brave enough to try and alert. I wonder if it was AM's dog? The black lab?

Dogs are good at reading the wind and sure their senses felt bad mojo in the air.

Defense grabs at straws cause they try allot of smoke and mirrors.

 

[Boodles]

I’ll try:
1–I think the hospital did have some positive tests for opioids. I don’t know the levels. MM’s sister and PM’s girlfriend both mentioned his pills. So it seems he did have some level of addiction. How severe it was could be a lie.
2-His phone went to the cell tower around Moselle & his mother’s house. But that’s as far as they could take it. Paul’s phone had more location services running in his apps than AM or MM did. So they didn’t get exact locations.

Did the hospital testify today? Did I miss that? Darn!

Off subject but it bothers me that AMs old toupee doesn’t match his white hair. I’m a retired salon owner, HA

That tape measure got a workout today and the defense really trying to alter the inch markings on the actual tape measure, good times lol.

MOO

That’s right— skinning and grinning on one side, robbing you blind on the other.

Watching a rerun and defense puts me to sleep! So unorganized and so slow

AM even alleged to the investigator that his mother's caregiver provided him with pills but when asked what kind and for what price, he suddenly could not remember -- most likely because it was untrue but he already maligned the woman. MOO

The introduction of his failed 'suicide' mission just makes it look like AM wanted people to believe that the 'hit man/men' of MM and PM were out to finish the job they had started with MM and PM. I don't believe Cousin Eddie was 'hired' to actually kill but only maim AM. That way AM gets to live but people would really believe that MM and PM weren't the only family members meant to be killed and that it was a vengeance killing and attempt and 'poor AM' survived by the grace of God. AM would be cleared, cases would be dropped for 'poor AM' (he's suffered enough after losing his family). I don't think AM ever thought he would be considered a suspect after his wife and son were killed. AM had to quickly come up with a reason for his failed Cousin Eddie mission once LE caught on to him so AM again tried to look like a poor victim by saying he was taking his own life in order to give money to his only surviving son. IMO. He's so desperately transparent and pathetic. I feel nothing but contempt for AM. Every story glorifies AM and is self serving. MOO.

The defense was so stilted and slow. I don't know how the jury didn't fall asleep. Defense knew what was coming and should have had everything prepared. Total fail, IMO. The prosecution didn't even need to use rude distraction techniques. MOO.

People keep claiming that the payments to Cousin Eddie were to launder money but that makes no sense to me.

1. The money was already laundered! That's why AM set up the Forge dba accounts at Bank of America. Once in that account, the money looked like it was from a legitimate business enterprise. As long as the Satterfield's and his other victims never cottoned on that he was stealing from them, he could have kept that going for a long, long time. It was only the boat crash and murders which unraveled his scheme.
2. Criminals launder money by passing it through seemingly legitimate business or financial entities: cash businesses like restaurants, buying and selling real estate, etc. You don't hand it to a shady low-level drug dealer like CES. That's the opposite of what you would do to launder money.
3. When you launder money, you get it back minus whatever fees or other costs to do the laundering. And the money now looks like legitimate income. That's the whole point of the thing. We see the outgoing money, but based on the testimony so far there's been no incoming money, which would have shown up on tax returns, in his regular bank accounts, etc.

I don't know what was going on with the payments between Eddie and Alex. It could be drugs, gambling or something else. And I know this case has been so crazy that the most out there speculation has been shown to be true. Still, I don't see any money laundering going on with these payments, whatever else may be happening.

Eddie was the 'check casher', then the money would be given back to Alex except for a possible 'check cashing fee'.

Lots of bodies under AM's bus and just another clear example of how people were expendable to him.
