When an uncle sheds more realistic tears emotions and empathy than the own father/husband speaks volumes

[kinorspielmann]

"We're just a normal family doing normal family things." ...like decades-long financial swindling, manslaughter and a double murder.

John Marvin didn't fool me. He participated in the cover up regarding the boat case that resulted in a teenager's death. John Marvin pranced right up to the scene of the crash and hauled the wrecked boat away when the dead teenager's parents were REFUSED access to scene of the accident. Utterly disgusting. This guy is no different than the his brothers.

He said he thought it was overblown that Paul killed a girl while driving his boat drunk? If I thought that, I would never admit it. Shows they are oblivious to how the majority of people function in the world.

One thing that stands out is how influential the family was in the area spanning over decades; if the wife & son were genuinely murdered by some unknown individual, the police would stop at nothing to solve the case. There'd be mountains of evidence & leads, and there'd be a task force to speak with the media & follow up on every clue ; but here they "investigated" in a very haphazard manner, told the media there was no risk to the public from the shooter/s & seemed okay with burying the case. There wasn't any real interest in the case until it got big enough in the media to warrant another look at it by LE; but if that interest hadn't been there this case probably would never have made it into a courtroom. This family have been able to avoid the consequences of their actions for so long, they seem to believe they are untouchable, and after watching the Netflix series abt the family it's pretty clear that lying is just another thing they mastered during their privileged lives.

I've been so impressed with this judge, more than any judge I've seen in a long, long time.

[marciabraga]

Every day I hear of a different victim of this family, crooks to the core.

[ruthpearsall]

Save your sympathy. This man didn’t search for Mallory, instead he hauled his brothers boat. He hauled out drunken Paul’s overturned car and berated his terrified girlfriend for calling 911. He helped recover Maggie s phone (no tears then) which AM was so keen to show he’d called to establish his alibi. But he didn’t help unlock Paul’s phone, though the code was easy (Paul’s DOB). He flew to the Bahamas with Alex after his financial crimes were uncovered, probably to hide money. Went to Las Vegas with Buster. Took guns out of Moselle after the killings (no tears then)…….ad infinitum

I’ve never seen someone so happy while testifying in a double murder trial.

[kimberlycornelius]

He didn't know his brother addicted for 20 yrs but y'all close family

[OdiesMama]

I find it interesting that this is the man who was allowed to load up and drive off with Paul's wrecked boat from where it sat immediately following that wreck and sure enough, despite living an hour away, he was right there in the middle of a Murdaugh crime scene once again.

[paranoid_android]

Let me tell you, not everything is as it seems. My ex husband was very affectionate with me in public, but at home it was a completely different story! Nobody would ever believe that we had a volatile relationship.

[lsmyser]

All AM had to do to be proven innocent was hand over the clothes he was wearing in that tree video. This whole trial would of never happened. Instead he lied and lied and wouldn’t turn over the clothes. To me that means he’s 100% guilty. Plus why didn’t he care about finding the killer? He don’t even remember what his last words to Maggie was.

[eileenprice]

He's a slippery character too. This family is full of slippery characters. I wouldn't trust any of them.

[GavinsMarineMom]

Watching him speak about how close he was to Paul, it struck me regarding how many people who professed to love him so much failed him so miserably. He had severe issues with alcohol starting in childhood and it seems no had the guts to address the problem and get him help.

[Marie-nfpl]

He talks about all the trips that his brother & Maggie took and properties with STOLEN money. Really Disgusting

[SpiritedSoul]

You know your family so well, but you only know what they WANT you to know. Every family has their skeletons. Things they don't want the extended family or others to know, see or hear. This is true of literally every family.

[Tempo]

I’ve never seen a witness be so animated and story tell. Most witnesses just answer in a few words as possible 😂

[eileenprice]

This guy has watched the trial, as has Buster. They both know Alec, whom they tirelessly cover for, killed his wife and son. I think they are worried about what Alex will help string them up for of they don't cover up this crime as much as possible. They are covering for Alex like they are trying to save their own skin. I hope the police look into them. There is clear evidence that they are in on some of Alec's crimes. I see no sign that they feel Alec every did anything wrong. That's pretty messed up. The police did not secure the scene, they did not get a jump on evidence. This is all super fishy!!!

[uneeky]

The way they talk about Paul, Buster, and Alex leaving things everywhere; mainly Paul. They make it seem like it's something normal or something funny or cute. In reality it's because they had so much money that they didn't care about anything, everything was disposable to them. Nothing had sentimental value to them because if you have something you really care about, cherish, or you worked hard to buy something you are not going to leave it just anywhere; all the time, every time. That's really sad. Just goes to tell you a lot. That's why they were spoiled brats and that's why Alex annihilated his family, they were disposable to him.
