He shot Himself to make it look as if someone was after him and his family.
Superficial GSW to the head??? This family has some major skeletons in their many closets!
Four deaths. No Fbi. Yet. If it were regular folks. We would be in jail. Rich got. A second. Chance. !!!?? Fire everyone. Us attorney. Needs in on four of these murders!!!!
So is it safe to say one of the sons killed Stephen Smith. The Maid had too much in house information. Mallory may just have to be an accident. Drugs addiction led to money problems. Wife and son was killed for insurance. Ran through insurance money, got caught for embezzlement which led to embarrassment and depression. Hire hit man! Case closed
Even Stevie Wonder could see this looks fishy…
He couldn't even do it, asked a klient to do it, and neither of them could do the job
This will be a great movie.
Possibilities:
1. Killed his son and wife, stages his attempted murder to throw off police to avoid prison or death penalty. Reason one: wife found out he was having an affair and threatened to turn him in for all the corrupt cases he's won for his clients knowing all the details of each case. Probably discussed this in front of her son and this guy is not about to lose his prestigious life and freedom over it so he takes them both out. Second reason: another Chris watts story. 3rd: divorce turns messy, leading to threats of custody, money, and the name he made for himself being stripped from him.
2. Took a case of a powerful or unhappy client. Didn't complete demands of a client and client wasn't happy.
3. Defendant in a prior case wasn't happy.
4. Corrupt lawyers family passed off the wrong people by trying to cover their tracks and getting away scotch free.
5. Tried to expose a client who was involved In a worldwide illegal ring (trafficking drugs, humans, organs, corporate corruption, political corruption) and just got lucky when they attempted to "murder" him.
My money's on #1
Smell a rat. If he contrived this 10 million dollar insurance fake suicide scam, he probably killed his wife and son.
This guy is gonna walk free his family is very CONNECTED and they call the shot he will get a favorable judge
It ain't no mystery ??I'm so mad I could spit ,He had the nerve to pay somebody to shoot him in the head, got all that money from his family, talking about he bought some pills, lier,not that many pills in the world, for one person to take ,he could get everybody in the city high, he had his wife and son murdered for insurance money, yes he did ,and I hope he goes straight to hell
Maybe it is his planned defense rather than a planned hit on himself. Meaning maybe he killed his wife and son and felt the heat
was on him so he pretended to be a drug addict and checked him self into rehab and he plotted a FAKE scheme where he would
be grazed with a bullet and be able to say that he was suicidal and wanted to leave his other son some money. But, in reality the plan was that he would NOT be murdered but only wounded and the guy he
hired knew that or he would not have taken the job because if he really had murdered him how would he know he would get all the money promised to him? And how hard
is it to kill somebody with a gun if that is really the plan? Why did the guy survive if the plan was assisted suicide? I think the nut murdered his family and then set up these elaborate stories for his defense and it might work. Being the depressed drug addicted suicidal husband and father rather
than the corrupt lawyer who stole from his company and murdered his family probably would work with a stupid jury if the police
don't have hard physical evidence. Which obviously they don't or he would have already been arrested long ago on murder charges.
It sounds like someone wanted justice and may not have gotten it and took it upon themselves to get it. It will be interesting to see how this all comes about Murdaugh will have a very interesting life going forward if he can’t buy is way out of this one he will not do well in prison.
this whole thing is so weird!
If he is lawyer he must be wealthy so how he will change a tire, why he did not call road assistance. This is all a coverup he must be trying to bid something.
This shows how the Justice system has always been for people with money and privilege Whites. This lawyer's son should had been in prison for killing that girl, accident or not. The Judges are just doing favors, not their job. Nobody cares about the privileged when they get away with murder and rap. So, everybody is probably thinking that they got what they deserved.
Law enforcement needs to solve the Smith murder first, and then start working on the murdaugh family murders after they get that case solved.
Of course this wouldn't be Alex but, there are rich people who will kill or have their family killed, all for the love of money and power. It's ironic how his son is killed before the obvious civil suit makes his parents pay millions to the young lady's family. But, I know it's just a coincidence. And, I wonder had Alex heard through the grapevine that the law firm was investigating him? If so, he knew he would eventually be dismissed and possibly have to pay millions back. I'm sure he wouldn't have killed his son to bury the civil suit when he may already owe millions and his wife since she too was having him investigated. Everyone who talks about this case shows Alex sympathy for losing his loved ones. Not sure if I want to do that.
He shot his family then made it look like someone else shot him. Superficial =self inflicted
I think this pandemic has taught people the importance of multiple streams of income, unfortunately having a job doesn't mean security rather having different investments is the real deal.
