Listen to the new introduction. It’s important information regarding Alex Murdaugh’s appeal and psychopaths like Murdaugh and Dominique Pelicot (Gisèle Pelicot) being called ‘good guys.’

Laura shares important facts and evidence that point to motive and continues to unravel the timeline including Murdaugh’s significant debt and borrowing, his horrific abuse of power and trust of vulnerable clients and so-called drug addiction.

Pamela Pinckney, her son Hakeem Pinckney along with Alania Plyler Spohn and Hannah Plyler turned to Murdaugh at the very worst time in their lives. He used and exploited them, funnelling off money from their legal wins in addition to the money he earned from inflated legal fees and expenses. Laura shares what this behaviour reveals about Murdaugh’s psychology and how it relates to the motive for brutally killing Maggie and Paul and staging their murders as a revenge kill for the boat crash.

Join Laura as she breaks it all down.
