Summary

The Hulu’s series, ‘Murdaugh: Death in the Family’ has generated renewed interest in the case. This special release of the original investigative series Laura shared in April 2023 is in addition to recent interviews about the series. Incensed that Maggie had become a footnote in her own murder, Laura began her deep dive that to fix the narrative and deconstruct and decode Alex Murdaugh’s behaviour with forensic precision. Don’t forget to listen to the new episodes with Mandy Matney and creators of the show, starting from Ep 285 and join in for additional episodes and interviews with Mandy Matney and others in the Crime Analyst Squad: patreon.com/CrimeAnalyst ****** In this episode, Laura analyses the 911 call Alex Murdaugh made on June 7, 2021, in which he claimed he had discovered the dead bodies of his wife, Maggie, and his son, Paul. Alex Murdaugh called 911 at 10.07pm and claimed he discovered their bodies at Moselle, the family’s 1770-acre estate in the small town of Islandton, South Carolina. Laura forensically deconstructs the call and identifies numerous red flags. Listener discretion is advised. #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #MalloryBeach #MurdaughMurders #AlexMurdaugh #Lowcountry #CoerciveControl #PowerAndContro #MaleViolence #DomesticAbuse #DomesticHomicide #MaleEntitlement #Accountability #WomenMatter #CrimeAnalyst #Expert #Analysis #Behaviour #TrueCrime #Podcast Clips https://www.netflix.com/title/81519789 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR2uEYRsbDE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YhIkjK_6AY&t=1043s Sources https://www.netflix.com/title/81519789 https://www.hbomax.com/series/urn:hbo:series:GYztM8w3XD7mRsAEAAACv https://murdaughmurderspodcast.com/ https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/20/us/murdaugh-family-connected-deaths/index.html https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/crime/alex-murdaugh-murders-verdict-timeline-b2293378.html https://people.com/crime/alex-murdaugh-allegedly-lured-wife-cabin-texted-friend- seemed-fishy/ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10050605/Alex-Maggie-Murdaughs-marriage-crisis-family-insider-reveals.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YhIkjK_6AY&t=1043s https://www.insideedition.com/911-audio-from-the-murdaugh-murders-68596 Masterclasses and Crime Analyst Resources and Community  For those interested in learning more, Laura offers 2025 Masterclasses covering topics such as profiling behavior, preventing murder and suicide in slow motion, DASH, DASH Train the Trainer, coercive control, and stalking.
