And so when it happened, 40 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 2: I was not shocked. Was I angry though, yes, And 41 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 2: was like reality hitting me that this story that I 42 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 2: feel like I've been trapped in or like I I'm 43 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 2: sure on the last podcast we discussed like I was 44 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 2: really ready to break free. I thought the whou was 45 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,839 Speaker 2: like a book, and a nice bookend of that part 46 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 2: of my story and that part of my life. And 47 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 2: so it's just been coming to terms with like we're 48 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 2: opening up all those chapters again and nothing is ever over. 49 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I can't imagine. 50 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't imagine how you feel because I feel 51 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 3: that way from it, outside of it, Like it just keeps. 52 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: This is like yet another turn with this whole saga. 53 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 3: And I mean, did you really did you initially think 54 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 3: when he was convicted that this was a possibility that 55 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 3: they would control. 56 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 2: Honestly, I really didn't, and I have I haven't been 57 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 2: asked that question. And I really thought that everything was 58 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 2: so solid in the trial. I mean, the trial was 59 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 2: six weeks long, it was very extensive. Creighton Waters did 60 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 2: a fantastic job, and I thought Judge Newman did a 61 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 2: fantastic job. This doesn't happen often, but at that point 62 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 2: I was proud of the South Carolina justice system and 63 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: I was really thought everything was solid. I was I 64 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: expected Alex's attorneys Dick and Jim to find something wrong 65 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 2: with it, right. They They are very expensive, well resourced 66 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 2: attorneys that can turn over every single leaf in a trial, 67 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 2: and they have that money in time to do so. 68 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 2: I saw this coming from when the Supreme Court had 69 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 2: their hearing in February, and I could tell the justices 70 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 2: were all on his side. And that is when I 71 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 2: really like knew that it was a possibility. Knew that 72 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: it was a big possibility. And there was just moments 73 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 2: where they were almost helping him in that hearing, and 74 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 2: it was just kind of weird. There was a moment 75 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 2: where one of the Supreme Court justices called him Elick 76 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 2: like by his first name instead of the defendant or 77 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 2: mister murder Like. I was worrying to him as his 78 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 2: buddy elc and I was just like this word, Oh 79 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: my god, we're screwed. 80 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 3: So this whole thing they they didn't just so this 81 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 3: is regarding Becky Hill. The first of all, how unusual 82 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 3: is this for a court clerk to have any influence 83 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 3: over a jury at all? And they use very strong 84 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 3: language and Supreme Court saying things like shocking jury interference 85 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 3: and she quote placed her fingers on the scale of Justice. 86 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, so what are they talking about, Oh, the Becky 87 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 2: Hills story. So yes, all of this is extremely unusual 88 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 2: and it all goes back to Becky's book coming out 89 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: in I believe July of twenty twenty three, So a 90 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 2: couple months after the murder, after Alex Murdoch was convicted, 91 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 2: the clerk of court came out with a tell all 92 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 2: book about the trial, like that it does not happen, 93 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 2: is not And that's like where all problems kind of 94 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 2: start to bubble up. And I really would like to 95 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: know at this point who encouraged her to write this book, 96 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: because this book obviously made her an easy target that like, 97 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 2: this lady does not follow the rules. There was somebody 98 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 2: who compete unethical in this trial, and so it gave 99 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 2: Dick and Jim permission, those are the attorneys to dig 100 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 2: into everybody in the jury, and they went to they 101 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: knocked on the doors of their houses and asked, like, 102 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,679 Speaker 2: did Becky influence you in any way, shape or form, 103 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: And all of them except for one said no. They said, 104 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 2: I came up with my verdict on my own because 105 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 2: of the evidence. Becky had nothing to do with it. 106 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 2: Like they said, yeah, she was a little weird and like, yeah, 107 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 2: she had like decorations and things, like. 108 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: She she decorated her desk. 109 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 2: Right, and like she obviously used this case as like 110 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 2: she thought it was like her ticket out, you know, 111 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 2: or like her ticket to money and fame, and like 112 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 2: she thought that she she's a very she's a small 113 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: town clerk of court and had never seen anything or 114 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: the publicly right, so public or the college in County 115 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 2: has never gotten our most cases never get like a 116 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 2: fraction of the attention that the Murdock case got, you know, 117 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: So she felt important for several months there where like 118 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 2: journalists were bub buddying up to her trying to get 119 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 2: the scoop. Like she felt like she had power of 120 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 2: like who has press passes and who doesn't in the case, 121 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 2: and like she was definitely power hunger like and I 122 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 2: saw that too, Like Liz and I joked at the 123 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 2: during the trial, Becky was like using press passes like 124 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 2: backstage passes. We called her backstage. We called her backstage 125 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 2: Becky because she was like, oh my god, one like 126 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 2: she was using it. 127 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: This seems absurd. That's like a circus, is she? 128 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 3: I Just like I'm struck that you could even I mean, 129 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 3: I'm not surprised she could get a book deal. I 130 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 3: feel like anybody that thinks I can sell something, but 131 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 3: it seems illegal because she is she allowed. 132 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 2: To do any of those things, so right, and she 133 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,119 Speaker 2: went to the South Carolina Ethics Commission. And this also 134 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 2: goes back to the fact that, like we have very 135 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: very weak rules when it comes to ethics in South Carolina, 136 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: and Becky is a part of a system where everybody 137 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 2: is so used to bending the rules and getting away 138 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: with it, Like Becky is not the first clerk of 139 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 2: court to be inappropriate or break the rules or been 140 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 2: the rules by all means, like this is a whole 141 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: system well constantly. I mean, Becky did it in a 142 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 2: very very stupid and public way. But so she is 143 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 2: accused of like like you said, the justices really came 144 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 2: down hard on her and said she had a finger 145 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 2: on the scales of justice in this case. But at 146 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 2: the same time, she was criminally charged with a few things, 147 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 2: but never jury tampering, and she was she was never 148 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 2: convicted of jury tampering. So that's like really important to 149 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 2: know and still to this day, like besides one juror 150 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 2: who flip flopped back and forth, and like again, she 151 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: only said that her jur her verdict was interfered with 152 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: after Dick and Jim came knocking on her door and 153 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 2: asking her to sign an affidavit and asking her, you know, 154 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 2: like and so you have this one juror that said 155 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 2: like a yeah, maybe Becky did say something weird, or 156 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 2: like maybe yeah, Becky did influence me, you know, and 157 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 2: then she went back and forth. So all of this 158 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 2: is because of that. But there was never anything like 159 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 2: incredibly solid, and this is important to know, there's never 160 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 2: any thing like incredibly solid that they ever pinned down 161 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: that she actually tampered with the jury or influenced the 162 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 2: verdict at any point. And also the jury all swore, 163 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 2: after swore to Judge Newman after they rendered their verdict, 164 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 2: that they were that they came to that conclusion on 165 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 2: their own, like they all and that So what I'm 166 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 2: worried about at this point, And sorry, I don't even 167 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 2: know what the question was. 168 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, you're answering it, you're answering it. 169 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,719 Speaker 2: But like, my what my concern is is what does 170 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 2: this tell other defense attorneys who have like lots of 171 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 2: money once they get a jury verdict that they do 172 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 2: not agree with that they can just go knocking on 173 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 2: jurors doors. And right, that is the problem, you know, 174 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 2: like there's there's something really important. I've talked to lawyers 175 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 2: about this. So with the finality of a verdict, you know, like. 176 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 3: That's what our legal system is for, that's what they say, 177 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 3: and if you want to change it, then you have to, 178 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 3: you know, have a neutrial, Like I just it seems 179 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,319 Speaker 3: crazy to me the night. 180 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 1: It's like co very, coercive. 181 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 2: It does. And like, yes, Becky was dumb and like 182 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 2: her book was stupid, like she she did she asked 183 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 2: the South Carolina f ex Commission, like can I write 184 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 2: this book? And they basically said, like we advise against it, 185 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 2: but like don't do X, Y and Z. And she 186 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 2: broke all the role, like she did everything with people, 187 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 2: like she was just in it. You could see it 188 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 2: so clearly. I've gone through our emails. I've gone through 189 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 2: like I have unfortunately dug way into Becky Hill and 190 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: like is she you see just this small town clerk 191 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: accurt who got a little bit of power and got 192 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 2: a little bit of fame, and like she went on 193 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 2: the Today Show right after the verdict with the jurors 194 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 2: and that was her first time that she had ever 195 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 2: been on a plane. 196 00:11:58,960 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: Oh wow. 197 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 2: So like think about how small world was and. 198 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: How like, yeah, how exciting that all was right, and how. 199 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: It's it could be easy to get swept up and 200 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 2: think like, this is my chance. I got to write 201 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 2: a book and I got to do all of these things. 202 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 2: And who knows who was pressuring her to to like 203 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 2: appear to be super unethical, because. 204 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: Well, right, that's what I was going to ask, is that. 205 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 3: I mean, I suppose there's no way to nobody will 206 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 3: ever admit it. But it feels like where Alex's attorney's going, 207 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 3: you know, paying her off or something. I mean, it 208 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 3: just seems like so possible, the whole thing. 209 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,719 Speaker 2: It's it's just very shocking, but not shocking because all 210 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 2: along on the Murdoch Martyrs podcast, we've said two systems 211 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 2: of justice, right, and like it was all shocking to 212 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 2: us that he was convicted to begin with, just because 213 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 2: of our system in the way that it is. And 214 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 2: so yeah, I really did not foresee an appeal, especially 215 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 2: this quickly. I always thought appeals took a lot. I mean, 216 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 2: I guess we're three years out. 217 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: Yeah further. 218 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 3: So okay, So now that they have been overturned the 219 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 3: murder convictions, what happens next procedurally. 220 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 2: That's a great question. So Attorney General Alan Wilson has 221 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 2: said he's going to retry the case. He does not 222 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 2: have to recharge him because it does not charge it 223 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 2: does not like take the charges away. But and he 224 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 2: also has said that the death penalty is now on 225 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 2: the table. But there's also background here at Attorney General 226 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,719 Speaker 2: Alan Wilson, who's the like in charge of the prosecution 227 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 2: on the case, he is running for governor right now, 228 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 2: so that makes a different that makes a different factor, right. 229 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: He is obviously motivated to puff's chest up and say 230 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 2: things like I'm going going to go for the death penalty, 231 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna we want to get this done as 232 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 2: soon as possible, and we want to get this done 233 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 2: this year, is what he has said. But will day, 234 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 2: I don't know. So procedurally, I am not sure what 235 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: happens next, to be honest with you, but I'll tell 236 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: you this. Right before we got on the phone, right 237 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: before we started talking, Alex's attorneys filed a lawsuit against 238 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 2: Becky Hill on behalf of Alex Murdoch. So now we 239 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 2: have a federal lawsuit and it just keeps coming. 240 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: Oh my god, do you think so. 241 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 3: Right, I'm going to say that the prosecutors they wanted 242 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 3: as aggressively this time as the last problem, I would 243 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 3: think more so. 244 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 2: No, Yeah, I mean I do think that the one 245 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 2: thing that's good about Alan Wilson running for governor is 246 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 2: that he is motivated to please the people, and I 247 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 2: think he will be motivated to get this done quickly 248 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 2: and correctly. 249 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 3: So do you think that people are emotionally separating two 250 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 3: ideas right now that like Alec probably did it versus 251 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 3: he may not have received a fair trial. Like I'm 252 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 3: always curious about those things, like this is where that 253 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 3: justice part is? So yeah, murky to me. 254 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 2: I was talking to a podcast from Ireland the other 255 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 2: day about this too, because I wrestled with that question 256 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 2: as well, Like what is a fair trial? It's the 257 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 2: right person is behind bars, and most of us believe 258 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 2: that the right person is behind bars and isn't that 259 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 2: what our justice system aims for the Other thing that 260 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 2: I can't really that I wrestle with and that I 261 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: can't really fully conclude, is like I don't think that this. 262 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 2: People love to say, like two things can exist at once. 263 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: He can be guilty, but he deserves a fair trial. 264 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 2: But it's not like this betters everybody in the system. 265 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 2: It's not right. It's not like every black person that 266 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 2: is that would have the exact same argument would get 267 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 2: the same outcome. It is not like a poor white 268 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 2: person would get the same outcome. It's Alex Murdock is 269 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 2: somebody with a lot of power and a lot of sway, 270 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 2: and that is a huge part of this outcome. So, like, yes, 271 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 2: was Becky inappropriate? Yes, does that necessarily mean that he 272 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 2: did not get a fair trial? I just can't really, 273 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 2: I can't come to that conclusion because I believe in 274 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 2: my art and soul that he did it, and I 275 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 2: believe that we have seen the evidence. And I'm also 276 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 2: a South Carolina tax fair I don't want to pay 277 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 2: for another trial. 278 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 3: Yes, I mean the amount of time and energy and 279 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 3: emotional strife and try all of that, But the actual 280 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 3: financial burden that this puts on this day, it's outrageous. 281 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. Right, And then like you said, I do think, 282 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 2: I do think for the most part of majority people 283 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 2: are saying, Okay, the Supreme Court said what they said, 284 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 2: and maybe he does deserve a new trial, or he 285 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 2: does deserve a new trial, but I still believe that 286 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 2: he's guilty. I'm seeing a lot of that, But I 287 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 2: am also seeing a lot arise in the comments of like, 288 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 2: but did he do it? Which is which is hard. 289 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 2: I think we haven't seen any more evidence, Like there 290 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 2: has not been a shred of evidence since he was 291 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: convicted showing us that he was innocent, or showing us 292 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 2: that another person did it, or pointing us to any 293 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 2: other direction. There's not There has been nothing new in 294 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 2: all of us, and I feel like that's another like 295 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 2: solid point to get across. This does not mean that 296 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 2: he presented any new evidence, because he definitely didn't. 297 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 3: I mean, the the kennel video, the confession lie, thing 298 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 3: like that. That's such a defining piece of the first trial. 299 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 3: And they can still, well they use that again. They 300 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,880 Speaker 3: can use all of the same things, right they Nothing 301 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 3: is sort of exempt. 302 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: It's just they just have to have a new trial. 303 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:27,439 Speaker 2: So unfortunately, the Supreme Court in their ruling said A, 304 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 2: we're giving you a new trial because of Becky, but 305 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 2: b we believed that too much of the financial crimes 306 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 2: was allowed in what. 307 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, isn't that part of the motive. That's part of 308 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 1: goes to motive. 309 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 2: It goes directly to motive. And what I was talking 310 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 2: to my co host of Cove of Justice about a 311 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 2: long time South Carolina attorney, great attorney Eric Bland, who 312 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 2: he and I uncover the financial crimes together. He was like, this, 313 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 2: put this what the Supreme Court laid out, and their 314 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 2: ruling puts the next judge in a really really tough 315 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: position to allow any financial crimes in because then it's 316 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:11,120 Speaker 2: immediately appealable. 317 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: Oh my god, yeah. 318 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 2: And it's in my god of it because like it's 319 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 2: like you said, anyone who was paying attention understands how 320 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 2: it's not a far leap from the financial crimes to 321 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 2: the motive. You see the gathering storm, You see all 322 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 2: the pressure that he was facing in his life, and 323 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 2: that like his law firm was coming down on him 324 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 2: that day and he was being caught. 325 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 1: How can that not be allowed? 326 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: Why? And what? And it was weird the way that 327 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,199 Speaker 2: they put it. They didn't they didn't necessarily say like, 328 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,199 Speaker 2: they didn't say it's not allowed, but they said you 329 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 2: went too far and too hard on the financial crimes, 330 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 2: and an example of that, which I thought was really 331 00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:00,199 Speaker 2: weird was Tony Sadderfield's testimony, and he was it was 332 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 2: the only financial victim who testified. 333 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 1: He's the son correct of Gloria, and Gloria Sadden was. 334 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 3: Supposed to receive the money from the uh ALEC when 335 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 3: he did the reverse is another like. 336 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 2: It's okay, it's okay to explain that quickly. 337 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 1: I know it is, but I can't explain it. 338 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 2: You're doing a great job and it's really difficult, and like, 339 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 2: I've had to review so many things in the last 340 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 2: couple of weeks, so I'm like, what did happen there? 341 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 3: No? 342 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: So uh. 343 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 2: Tony Saderfield is the son of Gloria Sadderfield and Gloria 344 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 2: Sadderfield was the housekeeper and nanny, and a lot of 345 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 2: people close to the Murdochs really credit Gloria for raising 346 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 2: the children, like she was a huge part of both 347 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 2: Bustering and Paul's lives. She was a part of the 348 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 2: Murdochs family, and Tony also considered Alex Murdoch like a 349 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 2: father figure, like somebody who he really looked up to. 350 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 2: So Gloria unfortunately died after allegedly falling on the Murdoch's property, 351 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 2: and that's a whole nother thing that has never been 352 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 2: completely there's no closed loops on that. But what we 353 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 2: do know is that Alex took that as an opportunity 354 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 2: to steal from her family, and he went to Gloria's 355 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 2: sons at the funeral and said, hey, look we can 356 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 2: get you money. Here's my buddy, Corey Fleming. He's going 357 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 2: to be your lawyer, and you guys are going to 358 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 2: assume me. 359 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 1: Because I'm such a stand up guy. 360 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 2: Because I'm such a stand up guy, and they were, 361 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 2: you know, confused, but also Alex, it's Alex Murdoch saying 362 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 2: that like his father, his father, grandfather, and great grandfather 363 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 2: were all prosecutors of that area. So the like the 364 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 2: I don't question Tony of like he was probably like, Okay, 365 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 2: that's weird, but that's fine. Sure, he did not get 366 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 2: any of that money. They settled for over four million 367 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:12,719 Speaker 2: dollars against Alex Murdoch's insurance company, and Alex took the money. Also, 368 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,959 Speaker 2: Tony was questioned because I had written an article that 369 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 2: Tony had seen that had been his only awareness of 370 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 2: the settlement existing. He had no idea. Alex kept telling him, hey, buddy, like, 371 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 2: if we're not getting there, like nothing's happening, don't worry 372 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 2: about it. I'll I'll tell you about it when it's settled. 373 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 2: And then he reads in the newspaper for my article, 374 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 2: and so he starts asking Alex questions in the spring 375 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty one, like, hey, like, I read that 376 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 2: there's this this five hundred thousand dollars settlement, which is 377 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 2: just a part of it. And what really gets me 378 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 2: is that he could have just given them like ten 379 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 2: thousand dollars or like give him something, just a little 380 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 2: part of it, and they would have been over the moon. 381 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 2: Like these were boys working really, really hard. Gloria's Sun 382 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 2: got kicked out of his home during this time because 383 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 2: he couldn't afford to live there, Like they were struggling 384 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 2: so any ounce of money. But he was so incredibly 385 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:20,400 Speaker 2: greedy and so incredibly short sighted that he didn't give 386 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 2: them a single dime. And so for the Supreme Court. 387 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:31,360 Speaker 3: It's so despicable, it's almost it's it's unfathomable. 388 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 2: So for the Supreme Court right to say, like that 389 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 2: was way too much, you wed like hearing from that 390 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 2: guy that was over the top, and it just feels 391 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,239 Speaker 2: like a slap in the face to the victims. It 392 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 2: feels like they don't care about the what it speaks 393 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 2: to the motive and what it like. Tony Sanderfield is 394 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: also like an example of like how despicable Alex Murdoch 395 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 2: can be. He looked this, He looked this young man 396 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 2: in the eyes who had just lost his mother and said, 397 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 2: I got you, don't worry, and then he stole from him. 398 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 3: How difficult is it do you think to see an 399 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 3: impartial jury now that this case has become so globally 400 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 3: famous and people have such big feelings about it. 401 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 2: You know, it's it's really it's literally. First of all, 402 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 2: it's impossible to seat a jury that is not aware 403 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 2: of this case, at least a jury. I'm sorry, but like, 404 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 2: if you have a sane mind in the state of 405 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 2: South Carolina you've heard of from are not case and 406 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 2: like and unless you're like real weird living and like 407 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 2: do we want those people as you're like living under 408 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 2: our literal rock. No, So like people that have already 409 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 2: built their opinions and had are aware of the case. 410 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 2: That's I don't think we can go anywhere in the 411 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 2: United States without that, maybe even like a good portion 412 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 2: of the world, that would be difficult. But can we 413 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 2: get an impartial jury, a jury that's able to look 414 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 2: at the facts and decide again if there's enough evidence 415 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,439 Speaker 2: to convict him of double homicide, which is what this 416 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 2: case comes down to. I think that that's possible. I mean, 417 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 2: but I also feel like nowadays that's something that we 418 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 2: have to discuss with our jury system of like people 419 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 2: have heard, the true crime has evolved so much. People 420 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 2: are so much more involved in cases and know so 421 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 2: much more. Do we really want jurors who have never 422 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 2: heard of cases and do that? 423 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 3: Don't We all have, you know, minds that are that 424 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 3: can process a lot of information and be influenced by 425 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 3: like that sort of the you can't you have to 426 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 3: come to the table with some sort of you know, 427 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 3: opinions and moral work for things. And it doesn't mean 428 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 3: you can't be you should be influenced by what happens. 429 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 3: It's a confusing I don't know, it feels very unm 430 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 3: you know, imperfect to say the least. 431 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, and that, But I do think, like you said, 432 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,400 Speaker 2: and we need to think of like jurors do have 433 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 2: the ability to think of their opinions separate from them, 434 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 2: separate their opinions from what they're seeing in court and 435 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 2: the evidence, and decide from that. And I also do 436 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 2: think that the jurors didn't do that in this case. 437 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 2: I think that there was. I think that it's the 438 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 2: jury tampering that the Supreme Court is making out is 439 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 2: acting like happened existed. I think one of the jurors 440 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 2: would have said something before Dick and Jim came knocking 441 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 2: on their doors asking, you know, like, I think something 442 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 2: would have came out before the book. I think that 443 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 2: something would have come up if she was truly being 444 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 2: this like out of control. 445 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 3: We have to convict him, right, I Mean, it also 446 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 3: just seems so illogical that she could be in the 447 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 3: courtroom like. 448 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: PST, don't listen to the evidence. I mean, it's just 449 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: like ludicrous. 450 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 2: Right, and that they wouldn't. And I also I feel 451 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 2: bad for those chruers, like they they gave up six 452 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 2: weeks of their lives and came to a decision and 453 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 2: it's just kind of insulting for them and for I 454 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 2: feel like Judge Newman did a really great job and 455 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 2: it's unfortunate that this is reversed and he he's retired now, 456 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 2: so he's not going to come back, and so that's 457 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 2: another thing that's going to happen, and a new judge 458 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 2: and that's going to make a I think that's I 459 00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 2: think this time is going to be very, very different. 460 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. 461 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 3: So one of the things that you get into in 462 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 3: your podcast is the fear that this could retraumatize everyone 463 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 3: who's connected to the case all over again. And you've 464 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 3: spent obviously years talking to people that are connected to 465 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 3: this story. 466 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,399 Speaker 1: So do you feel that people. 467 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 3: In South Carolina are emotionally exhausted by this whole case? 468 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? I do. I think that I think that they 469 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,719 Speaker 2: take comfort in the fact that he's not getting out 470 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 2: of prison for the next few decades, because he should 471 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 2: die in prison just for the financial crimes alone, right, Yeah, 472 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 2: which like ninety. 473 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 3: Make that clear that he isn't he won't be released 474 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 3: from prison because of this. 475 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 2: He's still and that's a huge part to discuss with 476 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 2: the process. He is, like he has twenty seven years 477 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 2: in state prison for his financial crimes, in forty years 478 00:28:55,800 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 2: in federal prison for his federal financial crimes. Like that's 479 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 2: a pretty solid he can't be behind bars forever. So 480 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 2: I think they do take comfort in that. I do, 481 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 2: but I also think, yeah, they're exhausted by it. And yeah, 482 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 2: most people think that he's guilty, so they're like, why 483 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 2: are we doing why are we doing this? 484 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's what I was just going to ask. 485 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 1: Are we over this? 486 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 2: Like, yeah, aren't we over this? And again if this 487 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 2: was if this was a situation, I would feel a 488 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 2: whole lot differently about it if there was new evidence, 489 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 2: Like I also see datelines in twenty twenties of like 490 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 2: people who do deserve to get a new trial because 491 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 2: of various reasons and don't get it across the country, 492 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 2: not just in South Carolina. But I mean, I have 493 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 2: no idea how many people innocent people are in prison 494 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 2: in our system. But as we were talking about, like, 495 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 2: we know it's not perfect, and we know I know 496 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 2: that the there's a lot more people that deserve another trial, 497 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 2: more so than Alex. Like I've seen cases where like 498 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 2: DNA has basically exonerated a person and it still takes 499 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 2: years for them to get a new trial. 500 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: Yep, if they do, it's so upsetting to me. 501 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 2: It's just really really upsetting. 502 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 3: So before we get into the contempt hearing that you 503 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 3: are currently involved in, which also outrages me, one thing 504 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 3: that you know that people forget is how quickly alec 505 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 3: He started unraveling publicly after the murders. There were the 506 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 3: financial theft allegations, the roadside shooting, the opioid addiction claims. 507 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: So how much of this case do you think. 508 00:30:56,120 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 3: Is really just about privilege and power protecting people for decades, 509 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 3: all of it. 510 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 2: I mean, I think that it's really impossible to talk 511 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 2: about this case in a responsible way that helps people 512 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 2: understand what's going on without talking about power and privilege. 513 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 2: I mean, this man, his family was the law in 514 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 2: South Carolina, and we can't like get past we can't 515 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 2: like I remember, we covered stories on the murderch Murders 516 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 2: podcast of like his father, his father got him out 517 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 2: of everything that he ever did, and he would so 518 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 2: many people would tell me. He would joke, like, my 519 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 2: daddy's a solicitor, I can do whatever I want, and 520 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 2: like my family is the law in South Carolina. Sorry 521 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 2: for my bad accent. I'm not trying to insult Southern people. 522 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 2: Just Alex Murdoch. By the way, but like, yeah, it's 523 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 2: a when it come. When you really look at this 524 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 2: case and everything about it and why people so fascinated 525 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 2: by it, I think it's a man that was given 526 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 2: so much power and privilege his entire life and believed 527 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 2: that he could get away with anything, and he's still 528 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 2: doing that. Like I still think that he believes that 529 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 2: he's going to wiggle his way out of all of this. 530 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 1: Right, he's quite literally above the law, just right. 531 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 2: But the system has created that monster. It's not like 532 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 2: it came out of nowhere. 533 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 4: Yeah. 534 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 3: Do you think that all this media attention ultimately helped 535 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 3: to expose corruption in South Carolina or did it just 536 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 3: create chaos around the trial? 537 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 2: I think it helped expose it. I think at the 538 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 2: end of the day, I think that again, our prosecution 539 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 2: did the best that they possibly could have done, and 540 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 2: what happened with Becky was not their fault at all. 541 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 2: I think that they because the eyes in the world 542 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 2: of the world were on them, they really really cared 543 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 2: to do a great job. And yeah, I mean I 544 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 2: think that it does help, but it's also really frustrating 545 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 2: when you uncover corruption and you show everybody and then 546 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 2: like people in California are outraged, and people in Wisconsin 547 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 2: are outraged, and people in Italy are outraged. But it's 548 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 2: still like I need the people, the few people in 549 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 2: power in this state to see it, you know, like 550 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 2: it does help. But at the same time, it gets 551 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 2: so frustrating when we're all like we see it, don't 552 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 2: you see it? It's so messed up. I mean, like, 553 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 2: what have you heard with it? Like what has you 554 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 2: been like as you have seen in the last week 555 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 2: the reaction to the case. What have you seen? 556 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: I mean everyone is outraged. 557 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 3: I mean the amount of people that are sending me 558 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 3: all the articles like did. 559 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 1: You see this? Did you see this kid? You believe it? 560 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 3: You know? Uh yeah, I mean everyone thinks that he's 561 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 3: guilty and it's ridiculous, Like that's what that's generally what 562 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 3: the feeling is. And then a fascination again because here 563 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 3: we go again, here is yet one more tributary, and 564 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 3: this whole thing that is just gonna it just keeps. 565 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:42,240 Speaker 3: It's like it has more and more tentacles, this whole family. 566 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 3: And I think anytime I went back and watched one 567 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 3: of the documentaries and I was like, God, it's just. 568 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: It's all right there, it's all right there. He basically 569 00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: says it in court on the stand. You know, they 570 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 1: he's guilty. It's just like it's uh, it's kind of unreal. Yeah. Yes, 571 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: that's a long witted way of saying. 572 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 3: Everyone that I have ever spoken to about this things, 573 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 3: he's guilty. 574 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 2: Right, And like it's funny because they say one thing 575 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 2: to me, right, and like what I see and com 576 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 2: I try to limit myself and not get too crazy 577 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 2: with looking through Facebook comments, but it's the same thing 578 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 2: when I've what I've seen, Like I think that overwhelmingly 579 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 2: people see it, and we all saw it in the trial. 580 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 2: And like you said, like during the trial, first of all, 581 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 2: he testified, which is supposed to decrease your chances of 582 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 2: getting an appeal. It's supposed to like when you testified. 583 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm probably saying it wrong for lawyers will 584 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 2: probably correct me. But I remember my lawyer friends were 585 00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 2: saying at the time, like basically, because when you when 586 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 2: you testify, like you're rolling a big, big dice, and 587 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 2: you are, you're also convincing, like you're also giving a 588 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 2: lot of wiggle room for the jury to say, I 589 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 2: believe what he did. I believe he did it because 590 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 2: of what you said, which is what happened, Like a 591 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 2: lot of them said. His testimony convinced me his testimony 592 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 2: in the kennel video, because it all comes down to, 593 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 2: like he could not explain why he was there at 594 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 2: the kennels right before they were murdered, and then lied 595 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 2: about it about. 596 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 1: You how, I mean, yeah, I don't know, how do you. 597 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 2: Get past that? And like it's it's also I guess 598 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 2: that's reassuring for whatever happens with the new trial if 599 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 2: nothing about if for some reason, nothing about like the 600 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 2: motive is allowed in I mean, you still have that, 601 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 2: and that's pretty damning and hard to get past of, 602 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 2: like why were you there? What do you know? Why 603 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 2: did you lie about it? 604 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: And also that there's no other evidence. 605 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 3: They've never presented someone exactly some other reason, right. 606 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 2: Another theory, right, I mean, before trial, it was a 607 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 2: big question if they were going to blame like drug 608 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 2: dealers or like the cartel. You know, that was a 609 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:33,399 Speaker 2: big rumor, Yeah, blame the cartel, And I was kind 610 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 2: of surprised that they didn't. They still have never offered 611 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 2: anything like that because even that like makes it and 612 00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:43,879 Speaker 2: I don't believe that, but like it makes a lot 613 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,040 Speaker 2: more sense than you have this guy who was there 614 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 2: right before they were murdered, and there's evidence showing that 615 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:53,399 Speaker 2: he's right there, and he claims that he like ran 616 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 2: into his house and took a nap while they were 617 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 2: while his family and. 618 00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: Then like put the clothes out. 619 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:01,280 Speaker 3: There were so many weird, right tales of the case 620 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 3: that you're like, this makes no sense. 621 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 2: Right and unless you's house and at nine o'clock at night, 622 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 2: like and was going seventy miles an hour on a 623 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 2: country like there's all these things that is like what 624 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 2: and drove past Maggie's phone? How do you drive past 625 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:22,280 Speaker 2: Maggie's like or gotta go down all of these stupid 626 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 2: rabbit holes again? But it all like and I know 627 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 2: that everybody. The biggest criticism that I've ever gotten is 628 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 2: that I'm biased. And it's like I've been very open 629 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 2: to hearing other theories that make sense and seeing other 630 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 2: evidence that would makes sense. 631 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 3: Isn't bias more defined by when you don't? It's like 632 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:50,479 Speaker 3: a you have actual evidence and experience of research, which 633 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,360 Speaker 3: I feel like that's a different word. 634 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 2: That's just it. 635 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,439 Speaker 1: You're educated on the big facts. 636 00:38:56,520 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 2: Right, an educated opinion, right, Like, and I'm fine with 637 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 2: telling people that, like, here's everything that I've known about 638 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 2: this guy, and like, I really believe that he did it, 639 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 2: and I think that there's enough evidence to believe that 640 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 2: other for another jury again to believe that he did it. 641 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 3: Will they be able to bring in the boat crash 642 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 3: and Mallory Beach's death and all of that. 643 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 1: Will they be allowed to bring that? 644 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 2: It's a financial part, right, Like, it's a part of 645 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 2: the financial pressure that he was facing. So I think 646 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 2: that circling back to your last question, probably we're going 647 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 2: to have some hearings about what's going to be allowed 648 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:42,919 Speaker 2: in and what isn't before the trial. And I will 649 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,240 Speaker 2: be very interested because of the wording that the Supreme 650 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 2: Court gave how careful they're going to be with allowing anything. 651 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 2: But yeah, the boat crash was a huge part of it. 652 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 2: There's just all of these crazy events going on in 653 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 2: this man's life that led to the moment where I 654 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 2: believe he killed his wife and son. And I will 655 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 2: also say this, I just don't understand for the life 656 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 2: of me, how in other cases that we've seen, like 657 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:17,320 Speaker 2: cheating is always an easy motive for people to believe, 658 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 2: you know, like, oh, he was cheating or she was cheating, 659 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 2: so of course he killed his wife, Like wanting a 660 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:28,399 Speaker 2: divorce is always an easy motive. And then you see 661 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:32,759 Speaker 2: in trials like them hammering that home of like the 662 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 2: husband being unfaithful or whatever.

You have found yourself pulled into a 708 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 3: legal drama yourself, and that is really tangentially related or 709 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 3: quite directly related to the murder murders and the entire case. 710 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 3: I just want to say before I even talk about this, 711 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:45,360 Speaker 3: that I am so disgusted at the way that you 712 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 3: have been treated publicly by people that are supposed to 713 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 3: be upholding the law, by people that are you know, 714 00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,359 Speaker 3: should be exemplary in. 715 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 1: Their moral, you know behavior. 716 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,720 Speaker 3: I just with like my jaw is on the ground 717 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:05,359 Speaker 3: at some of the things that have been said to you. 718 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 1: So what is going on exactly? 719 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 2: Well, thank you for that, and I appreciate that this 720 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 2: could take hours, so I will be as short as possible. 721 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,319 Speaker 2: I could go on and on and on about all 722 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 2: this craziness, but yes, I have unfortunately been wrapped up 723 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 2: in legal warfare for six months now with of all people, 724 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:39,720 Speaker 2: Greg Parker and his attorneys who represented Alex Murdoch's co conspirators. 725 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 2: So this legal warfare that involves the Second Beach case, 726 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:51,520 Speaker 2: so the Malory Beach case, for just a recap of everybody. 727 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 2: And when I started covering this case, this was like 728 00:44:54,600 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 2: ground zero of everything. Was this lawsuit where Mark ten On, 729 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:03,840 Speaker 2: behalf of the Beach family, sued Alex Murdoch, Buster Murdoch, 730 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 2: the Alex Murdoch's father, whose house they were at that night, 731 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 2: another restaurant that they were at that night, and a 732 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:21,320 Speaker 2: gas station called Parker's gas Station. And most everybody settled 733 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,880 Speaker 2: very quickly in the lawsuit except for Greg Parker, Buster 734 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 2: and of course Alex Murdoch. And as we know, this 735 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 2: lawsuit was a big pressure point for Alex Murdoch and 736 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:39,400 Speaker 2: his financial crisis that he was experiencing at the time 737 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:43,719 Speaker 2: that his and his father was dying and all these 738 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,800 Speaker 2: other things were going on around the time of the murders. 739 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 2: But he no longer had insurance. Insurance was not covering 740 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 2: him on this massive lawsuit. And so this billionaire Greg 741 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:56,799 Speaker 2: Parker owns a gas station. And I always thought it 742 00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:01,040 Speaker 2: was weird that like his gas station sold sold the 743 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:05,319 Speaker 2: liquor there, sold the alcohol to Paul Murdoch and Pal 744 00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:10,399 Speaker 2: Murdoch's friends that night before she died. They were underage, 745 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 2: and it was it was pretty much point blank, like 746 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 2: they did this. It was bad, right, And I always 747 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 2: wrote it like that, like it's just weird. This guy 748 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 2: isn't settling, Like we all know why Alex Murdoch isn't 749 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,080 Speaker 2: settling because he's got all this other crazy stuff, But 750 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,920 Speaker 2: why isn't this guy settling? So Greig Parker did not 751 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,279 Speaker 2: like me for a lot of reasons for a lot 752 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 2: of years, and he finally settled with the Beach family 753 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:39,959 Speaker 2: for millions and millions of dollars in twenty twenty three. 754 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:46,520 Speaker 2: But during the course of his lawsuit, he he was 755 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 2: sued again by the Beach family for intentional infliction of 756 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:54,839 Speaker 2: emotional harm. And what Mark Tinsley accuses him of doing, 757 00:46:54,840 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 2: which is so horrible, is basically pressuring the Beach family, 758 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:04,799 Speaker 2: making the Beach family's lives more horrible, and pressuring them 759 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 2: to drop the lawsuit against him, and one of those 760 00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 2: things this is so horrible, But a fake want to 761 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 2: be journalist who was hired by Greg Parker to sort 762 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 2: of shape the narrative in his favor, got a hold 763 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:29,920 Speaker 2: of these horrible photos of Mallory Beach's body and use 764 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 2: them for a sizzle reel for a document to sell 765 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 2: a documentary. 766 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:39,239 Speaker 1: Oh my god. 767 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 2: Somehow in the course of this crazy lawsuit, I my 768 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:50,759 Speaker 2: name was brought up as like, but what didmanity do? 769 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 2: And people start accusing me of having the pictures, of 770 00:47:55,800 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 2: selling the pictures I had nothing to it, of being 771 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:05,440 Speaker 2: paid by Mark Tensley to push his narrative. All of 772 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 2: these crazy things that like did not happen and there 773 00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:10,640 Speaker 2: is no evidence. 774 00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 3: And go completely contrary to any sort of way you 775 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:18,680 Speaker 3: have presented yourself since you have been in the public eye. 776 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,200 Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you.

Liz sat in this deposition 790 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:10,799 Speaker 2: where they tormented her for hours and use this case 791 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 2: basically to badger her, torment her, get information about our 792 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 2: company and post it on the internet. And they've just 793 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 2: done all these horrible things in the last few months. 794 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 2: So now I don't even know how to like bring 795 00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 2: this to basically I finally did a deposition. I also 796 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 2: have seen evidence of them collaborating with this man who 797 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 2: I believe is a stalker of mine. He posts about 798 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:46,359 Speaker 2: me obsessively all the time. This is like I could 799 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 2: get into this for really forever. But like just all 800 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 2: of these horrible and crazy things that made me feel 801 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 2: unsafe about these people. And like you said, there should 802 00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,960 Speaker 2: be some meeting about being an officer of the CORE, 803 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 2: but there is not in South Carolina. Like, I do 804 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:06,960 Speaker 2: not trust these people whatsoever. And I believe that like 805 00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:09,680 Speaker 2: I believe that they want me to feel unsafe. I 806 00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 2: believe that they want me to be quiet because I 807 00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:17,319 Speaker 2: also I expose their clients. I expose Corey Fleming and 808 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:21,319 Speaker 2: Russell Lafeete and Liz, and I made them both look 809 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:25,319 Speaker 2: dumb and they are. It feels like wanting revenge on that. 810 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,200 Speaker 2: So all of that is to say that they are 811 00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 2: using the court system now in an attempt to hold 812 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:35,719 Speaker 2: me in contempt. So I have kind of like a 813 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 2: mini trial going on, and I laugh so I can't cry, 814 00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:44,799 Speaker 2: and I know that they will use this for like 815 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:47,799 Speaker 2: they use everything, all my words against me in a 816 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 2: long motion. So that's been a really fun like every 817 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 2: single thing that I say appears in a legal motion 818 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:56,800 Speaker 2: of like shame on her for saying that. But yeah, 819 00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 2: I mean I this has just been so stressful. It's 820 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 2: all proven my point of like just how wrong the 821 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:06,960 Speaker 2: justice system is. This all could have been so like 822 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:10,120 Speaker 2: if these lawyers behaved in a way that was ethical 823 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,439 Speaker 2: and that made me feel safe, none of this would 824 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 2: have happened. But like here we are, and I could 825 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 2: possibly end up paying a billionaire's legal fees, which could 826 00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:24,320 Speaker 2: be up to five hundred thousand dollars. 827 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I can't I get. It's like I 828 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:31,399 Speaker 1: don't even I don't have the words.

So I just really like 835 00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 3: and I and I've read I'm so happy that you 836 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,799 Speaker 3: have so many people that support you. And I don't know, 837 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:03,800 Speaker 3: I'm assuming you don't even know half of these people 838 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:07,080 Speaker 3: on the internet that support you. And I just read 839 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:09,919 Speaker 3: some comments where they were like, please let us help 840 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 3: you with those fees if you have, you know. I 841 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:16,879 Speaker 3: just so there is something quite beautiful about that, right, 842 00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:24,920 Speaker 3: connection with the public.

They also accuse me constantly of like doing 848 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,239 Speaker 2: all of this to get views on my podcast, and 849 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:46,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, it is so hard to explain to people 850 00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:50,760 Speaker 2: what's going on, Like people just want to hear about murder, 851 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 2: like that's right, I want to hear about like back 852 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,480 Speaker 2: and forth legal drama. It does not get anybody going. 853 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,920 Speaker 1: They will want to fatigue you. So that you actually 854 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: you talk about. 855 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:04,880 Speaker 3: What's really so because you are so outspoken about victims' 856 00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:09,680 Speaker 3: rights through all your reporting, what concerns you most right now? 857 00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 1: For Maggie and Paul's surviving family members. 858 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 2: It's again, it's just a lot of trauma that they 859 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:24,440 Speaker 2: have to deal with again, a lot of and some 860 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,000 Speaker 2: of them do believe that Alex did not do it, 861 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 2: which that's their right to believe that, But I mean, 862 00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 2: this is just a lot of reliving trauma. Trial is 863 00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:42,640 Speaker 2: a very very horrific, grueling experience for anybody, but especially 864 00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:44,560 Speaker 2: a victim. And that has been one thing that I 865 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 2: have noticed and come to terms with with all of 866 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 2: my legal stuff, is like I didn't lose a loved one. 867 00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:54,720 Speaker 2: I'm not fighting for it. Like there's a lot people 868 00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:59,399 Speaker 2: people fight the legal system and have a lot more 869 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 2: to lose and a lot more on the line. And 870 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 2: I'm thankful that it's it's money that I have to 871 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:11,880 Speaker 2: worry about. But like it is I have experienced in 872 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 2: a way like how exhausted. It's all exhausting, It's all stressful, 873 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:22,320 Speaker 2: it's exhausting, and you have to put people through so much, 874 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:29,080 Speaker 2: and people that just wanted like people want to move on, 875 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:31,840 Speaker 2: wanted to move on with their lives, like most people 876 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 2: involved in this wanted to move on to the next 877 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:41,240 Speaker 2: thing and not be stuck in this. Like maybe Becky 878 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 2: Hill probably wanted to talk about. 879 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:47,239 Speaker 3: Him forever, not anymore so save Becky, everyone else was 880 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 3: pretty done. 881 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:53,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're like we're done, and it.

There's 884 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 2: just a lot of really key witnesses that I'm sure 885 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:11,799 Speaker 2: that was probably one of the scariest things that they've 886 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:15,360 Speaker 2: ever done in their life, spinning up and testifying against 887 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 2: Alex Murdock and then to have to do it again. 888 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:20,840 Speaker 2: I really feel for all those people. 889 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:23,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, I do too.
