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 ****** Laura analyses Alex Murdaugh’s first interview with Special Agent David Owen from SLED and Colleton County Sheriff's Office Detective Laura Rutland on June 7, 2021. This interview took place in a car, after Murdaugh claimed he found his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, dead up at the kennels at Moselle. Murdaugh's personal attorney Danny Henderson was also present. Laura highlights several puzzling and bizarre moments and red flags in Murdaugh’s account to law enforcement. You won’t want to miss this.
