The Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

Alex Mardog. Yes, he's been tried. He snotted a lot on the stand. He was convicted.

He was given a chance to throw himself at the mercy of the courts and apologize for all the pain he's caused.

He didn't have to say, I did it. I'm sorry I killed him. He could have just said, I'm sorry. I've caused so much pain.

What did he do? He lied right in the judges' face again and went, I'm innocent. That's pretty much all I have to say.

That said, what's happening in the world of Alex Mardog right now?

I took a stroll the night of the syncing and white nose, the night of the verdict and went down to the county jail.

It was, I don't know, maybe half a mile is the crow flies at most from the courthouse where we all were.

I couldn't wait to get out of that parking lot. There was razor wire curled around the all around the top of it, around the top of the inside.

There was, where he's shangling. Francis, as there should be.

But just imagining him and there where he is supposed to be, I wonder where he is now.

You know, I have these visions dancing through my head of a Yorn Vander Slute in his Peruvian jail who has gotten married and gotten a woman.

His wife now pregnant with at least one child. They get drugs, alcohol, whatever they want there.

What is his life going to be like? But don't worry.

Hart Pooleon, aka PooT, his defense attorney and the entire team is working right now to guess what?

Getting Mardog out from behind bars.

I mean, as he grays, this is crime stories. Thanks for being with us with me, a high profile lawyer. Very familiar with the case.

Pregnances mostly out of Charleston, South Carolina. Mark Pepper is joining us from the Pepper Law Firm and you can find him at pepperallawfirm.com.

Also on Twitter at Pepper Law Firm. Mark, thanks for being with us.

Always a pleasure for you, Jeremy.

You know what? You said that so easily. Just tripped off your tongue when you know I'm going to disagree with every single thing you say.

But that's sad. I can't claim you're not a good lawyer because you are. You just say we prosecutors don't want to see coming up the hallway of the courthouse.
