Hey, everyone is Jen and this is Lindsay.

Welcome back to Corpus tolecti of the podcast, the final Alec Murdoch episode.

Yes indeed.

So basically just to rehash the game plan, this is the last Alec Murdaugh episode. This one is probably a little bit shorter. We couldn't quite fit it into the last one. And then we have one more episode that is just a one parter in the high profile series. And that is going to transition us into our next series which we are

reviving we're bringing one back and it kind of segues perfectly so that is the game plan for now

and then as we've alluded to I think we alluded to it at some point after that we have a big

case that we are working on behind the scenes that's a local case that we're going to do somewhat rocky style where people are talking to us, handed us over what they have and all that. We actually had our first interview for it. So more details to come on that. Also, I'm going to apologize when I did the test run through here. There was like a little static or hum in the background,

and I cannot get rid of it. I cannot pinpoint what it is. So just bear with me. Sorry about that.

All right. This is what we've been waiting on. The entire crux of everything with this case,

attorneys tell their clients, do not get on the stand. Do not go up there and talk. And even

Alec has probably told his clients from time to time, do not get on the stand. So what does he do?

He takes the stand and he does on February 23rd and throughout every interview with the police every conversation

about Paul up into this point is what Alec called him. Paul. He hasn't used any nicknames. He has just

said my son or Paul. Throughout his entire testimony, he referred to him as Paul Paul.

The first questions the defense starts with are, did you take any gun of any type and kill

Paul or Maggie? The next round of questions confirms that it was him at the kennels at 8.44 p.m.

The night they were brutally murdered.

Remember, up into that point, he has denied it profusely that he was not there.

He was visiting his mother and came back. However, the video that his son took confirmed that he was there.

Never once did he said, if I was only just a few more minutes, I could have

stopped the murders. He never once said, this was my family. I should have been there. I should

have helped. And any spouse or parent whose family has been killed would regret not being there.
