Prosecutor lists off Alex Murdaugh's lies to him in court: Full video 

If you can lie to your own wife and mommy and daddy, and detectives . . . you'll lie to 12 strangers with no problem.

ALL THE JURY NEEDS TO REMEMBER IS THAT A.M. WAS THERE 4 MINUTES BEFORE THEY WERE SHOT. AND HE LIED ABOUT IT!!!

Imagine going to law school with the same man who will end up prosecuting you decades later.

Ok, when he says, I did not kill,"Maggie Murdaugh I did not kill Paul Murdaugh. ", I believe he has separated himself from his wife and son. He dehumanized them now, like two names in the headlines. No more pet names. Good job wearing him down, Mr. Creighton Waters.

he lied to everyone no question. he said he didn't kill his family but he did!

this disconnect between his brain and reality is complete.

The look he gives the prosecutor when asked if he’s a “family annihilator?” gave me chills. I understand if he didn’t do it how upsetting it would be to actually be asked that but my god that dead cold stare was so unnerving to say the least.

They need to sell off everything that is Alex 's and pay back all the people he owes.

Cannot stomach this entire family.

"Ok I lied to everyone all the time, as a life style, but _now_ , as I'm facing life in prison or death sentance; I'm telling the truth, so trust me"

The lack of objections by the defense is pretty funny

Wait a second, he got special treatment from his police investigators friends because of his powerful family name but now claims he doesn’t trust them? 🙄

He TOY’ED around every question and prolonged every single question with prosecutor but answered quickly with defense lawyer and turned to jurors and turned on the tears. He fought every question, TRIED to explain in unnecessary going around the topic to get off the real question. GUILTY.

Would have been faster to ask who in SC he did NOT lie to. But of course it is more impactful if names and possible faces to those who know the names are presented. Prosecutor is utterly demolishing him and showing what an unfeeling robot AM was and is. Can a man like that kill the son who had put him through financial hell and the wife who might have threatened to divorce him (hence wedding ring under the car seat), when she had the properties in her name so he could evade civil suits? I would say without question.

Imagine what Maggie saw before her death in the hands of this so called loving husband?? This is a disgusting human being. He’s so guilty

He sure is playing the victim card

I'm surprised he took the stand. There's a lot of evidence that points to him.

The whole reasoning for lying to sled is ridiculous. You distrust them?!?.. So your wife and son are brutally murdered and laying lifeless on the ground less than 100 feet away from you, and in that very moment you are worried about your “personal problems” and relationship with SLED rather than focusing on tearing heaven and earth apart to find out who did this to your child and wife. I wish he got the due diligence of a true interrogation to get this man worked up and ask the hard questions because you can tell the truth is eating him up inside.

If the Pinocchio effect was real, his nose would have popped out of my laptop and taken my eye out...

Is there anyone left in the state of South Carolina that this man has not lied too?

His biggest concern is lying himself out of this! He makes me sick! He was successful, and he knows it! I sure do hope he doesn't use his addiction to get off. I hope there's not a mistrial.

He started stealing people's settlements almost out of the gate of him becoming a lawyer, it's really quite disgusting!!Where did all the money go that he stole with help from his friends?!

You may not have a high self esteem when you are an addict but you 100% DO when you're a narcissist.

What a despicable horrible man!!

I'm praying for Mr Waters to get the truth out of this guy once and for all...

Love the way he works up a cry on the stand

He claims he was an addict and nobody in the house realized he was on drugs!

"I DON'T LIKE TO BE SHAMED" is a profound statement

P.S. I wrote my comment before the last 3 minutes. I should have waited. What a powerful trap Waters laid and then he played the clip where AM admits he saw his wife & son 45 minutes before leaving -- before ANY of the "paranoid" causes came into play. Yep, AM continues to prevaricate...

Nodding his head Yes while answering No to “are you a family annihilator”

Prosecution is his best therapist in this clip.

He lied about being with Maggie and Paul withing 5 minutes or less of them being murdered. Period. His way of thinking is that he's not lieing to someone if they don't find out. "I didn't lie to them . I ommited the whole story." Smh

He has to have millions and millions of money hidden of shore. I’m sure Buster and possibly his Brother is aware.

Creighton hits it out of the park.

It’s a shame. The family could have done so much good. Instead the legacy will be nothing but betrayal, lies, deception, and murders..

So he's admitting to being a first-class liar but he wants them to believe every word he says. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Shame is not even a word in this man’s vocabulary. He has none. Most likely never had any. He never fought a darned thing in his life. He minimizes every action he does. He doesn’t admit he murdered them, “I treated them bad”. In his mind I think he feels justified in anything he had to do because he had to protect his own life.

I think Alex went down to the kennels that night with the intent to kill Paul and Maggie, and then frame it as Paul killed Maggie with the blackout, and then Paul loaded a buckshot and turned the shotgun to his chest and committed suicide. Double aught buckshot from a 12 gauge is what police officers fire out of their standard issue shot guns to take down bad guys. At close point blank range it would blow a hole through you. Alex only intended to fire one shot at Paul, with shotgun by his hip and the nose of the barrel point blank at Paul’s heart. But Paul must have flinched just in time where the buckshot missed his heart and went through his side and out through his armpit and into his arm and clear through to the window. It was so point blank the wadding went into him. If Alex would have been dead center shot on the first shot it would have blown a hole through Paul’s heart/lungs and would have dropped him dead. He then was going to turn around and grab the blackout and gun down Maggie. But he missed his heart and Paul didn’t go down. He must have fell backwards and then at that point had to fire the second shot of birdshot to take him out. Once Alex fired the second shot his “Staged Framing Paul killed Maggie and then killed himself with a shotgun blast to his chest murder suicide plan” went out the window and all hell broke loose. He still had to take out Maggie at that point and he did. But had he killed Paul with that one shot he could have staged the shotgun on/near Paul like he committed suicide and then left the rifle wherever it lay and start his cleanup process. He fired from the hip upward to make it look like Paul turned the shotgun on himself. But once he fired that second shot the only thing it could be was a double homicide. So he had to get rid of Paul’s guns, clean up really good and then get to his mom’s for an quick alibi. If his plan had of worked and the first shot killed Paul and he staged the scene well enough then he wouldn’t even had to have left his house for an alibi. His story about napping on the couch would be good enough if it looked like Paul killed Maggie then killed himself. He would have only had to clean up his body from blood/GSR and dispose of his clothes and then put on another generic pair of khakis and a blue button down shirt and drive down to the kennel and call 911. He would have had plenty of time to do all that if his staged murder/suicide plan worked. Instead he had to kick it into overdrive to his mom’s house and likely hide guns/clothes, and then stay for 20 minutes for an alibi. If his plan was double homicide then he wouldn’t have used Paul’s guns. But he was going to stage it and frame Paul for Murder/Suicide. That’s why it had to be Paul’s guns. If it was hit job the hitmen would have brought their own guns. If alex was going to do it solo he would have hid some non-identifiable guns out there in the shop that he could then dispose of. But that wasn’t his plan, and then when he missed the chest shot and had to fire a second shot to the head, all his planning went out the window. I also think that his one minute stop before he pulled out of his mom’s could have been him running down those railroad tracks in front of his mom’s house to hide something in the woods next to the track, or maybe even lay evidence on the tracks to be ran over by the midnight train.

I LOVE the disgust in mr. Waters voice as he says “nothing further “

I think the prosecution did a good job but completely overlooked what was an obvious point of contention for him, which was that he felt his wife was “privileged enough not to work”. He mentioned this on several different occasions and I think he had built up a HUGE amount of resentment at her over the fact that it was solely up to him to keep up the appearance of leading the wealthy Murdaugh lifestyle and that he’d been “forced” to steal so much money for so long in order to do so. Add to that Paul’s “boat wreck” which had brought shame to the family name along with the added financial blow, due to being sued, and then his wife and son having the audacity to team up against him over his “pill problem”. There’s no doubt he harboured hatred for them to be able to do what he so obviously did to them - in the manner with which he did it. I think, in his mind, he could as easily justify killing Maggie and Paul as when stealing millions of dollars from vulnerable clients, unsuspecting colleagues and friends. Sick, sad, and pure evil.

One of the few times he actually called his son by his name instead if Paw Paw

Biggest respect to Creighton Waters 👏👏✊✊❤️❤️

So he lied about being in the Kennels. Why lie if there is nothing to hide?

Thanks for your awesome coverage on the Trial & your week in review. I have been keeping up with Fits News since the murder of Maggie & Paul. Your coverage has been balanced & fair going with the facts of the Case. As a Floridian, it has been very interesting following your news on crimes & politics for the State of South Carolina in general. Looking forward to your live coverage coming up this week!

Seems like he is quick to anger.

Why is he shaking is head yes, but saying no?? Why did he say Paul murdaugh, Maggie Murdaugh?? What happened to Paw Paw and Mags?? why didn't they push home that they died around the time he was there... I really hope they convict him.. The 2 people who were aware of his addiction, the 2 people who tried to stop him from his addiction..the 2 people who would find his pills and take them...the 2 people who are dead...

Has it ever been brought out how long Maggie knew about the drugs and dwindling bank account?

Guilty AF

Goodness! listen to the shuddered breathing from Alex right before they play the first officer Green's body cam

Boy he's tearing him up!

Those beady eyes!

If he didn't have addiction..what would he blame??

What an act. Let's hope the jury aren't buying it any more than we all are.

repeating each question is a red flag to any interrogator.

Creighton is a great prosecutor! Deserves his own show...

This is just sick… I feel terrible for his family and friends.. unbelievable.. pure evil can be anyone..

No one believes a liar, even if he is telling the truth.

A very honest guy. He admitted to lying to 300 people. He's telling the truth.

This is so entertaining. Way better then any tv show out right now..

I think he’s guilty but I also think he held up well on the stand.

Sure he didn’t hurt Paul & Maggie he killed them.

He’s only 13 years older than me? He looks like he’s in his late 60s early 70s

He is saying anything he can to get out of the murders he did.

Did it ever come out how he and his father influenced LE over the boat wreck and tried to manipulate the kids and parents into thinking he was helping them. When really it was about a cover up. He lies with such ease, of course he thinks he can manipulate the jury. I've heard a couple cried...it may have worked

What’s the chance that he literally left the kennel a minute before his son & wife was massacred??? ( I’m sorry , prosecution proved this is a man that is the drug demon,& the ‘famely man’! All his lies are ready to crush him? & he be a loving addict? I don’t think so …. Defense is gonna say, he’s a liar, a addict,But he not a killer…..

AM sure gets pissy with Mr.Waters when he is asked the tough questions. If you zoom into Alex’s face he has the scariest eyes and face.

Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus.

Is there anyone he didn't lie to?

Maggie's phone Not found on her body but found the following day just outside the property tossed to the side of the road. Ironically the location was the same direction Alex had driven the night before but... in the location he slowed down. Do ya think he was interested in going back to the phone location to gain access and delete text messages between him and Maggie?

"couple years behind you in law school" lawyer came out swinging

Stay to the end because the prosecutor let Alex set himself up and then smashes him at the end.

He said no to killing them but was nodding yes.

Oh, totally believable. So he lied a few dozen times. No biggie. He would of course never lie just to keep himself from going to prison for the rest of his life.

This man is a psychopath. It makes me really wonder if he had anything to do with the death of his maid, Gloria.

Maybe he should have said “I wish I was down at the kennel longer, so I could have prevented these tragic murders..” Sociopath.

Confess already

Those eyes are piercing.. it's upsetting that someone can do this to themselves and others

TWO attempts to frame others as the 'real killer'-- first providing the description for a sketch of MALLORY BEACH'S BOYFRIEND and then claiming he recognized Eddie as the murderer of his family-- after saying he never saw them. TWO attempts to influence witness testimony in favor of lies supporting his alibi and xplaining away the tree video. Guilty as sin.

Waters last comment was powerful...that caught Murdaugh off guard..I think his attorneys were hoping the prosecution didnt figure that out.

Look at the stare after that question 😳 wow.

If he killed his son I think it was about the shame of the boat accident. The money he was sued for. He sacrificed one son, like a Kain and Abel, to continue the legacy.

Someone tell me why the blue shirt he wore earlier that day in a picture was never found? If someone did it why would they take his shirt?

I CAN NOT BELIEVE ALEC STILL HAS NOT SHOWN REAL CONCERN IN FINDING THE PHANTOM KILLER OR KILLERS OF MAGGIE AND PAUL. ( a reward was offered by fam, but it had a time limit which expired) IT WAS SAID, A WHILE BACK ALEC FORGED MAGGIES SIGNATURE TO TURN HER PORTION OF EDISTO PROPERTY OVER TO HIMSELF.

Why is the fact that he had gone back to the house before the police arrived to get a shot gun because he didn't feel safe not being addressed. He could have washed his hand changed clothes hid evidence???

He’s no addict. He speaks in broad general terms about pills-nothing of personal knowledge. Esp the detox. Guy doesn’t talk like an addict.

Any white guy in the south with a pick up truck that owns that many guns with a dog name bubba with blue lights in his truck that loves college football I DO NOT TRUST PRIED!

Answer the question....ALEX...I BELIEVE..I BELIEVE...IM SURE I DID IM SURE I DID....HE MAKES ME ILL...

His lip licking while answering questions drove me crazy. Super irritating

He has admitted lying to everyone he knows!

Addiction IS NOT murder. Lying IS NOT murder. Stealing IS NOT murder.

It's a shame he cannot agree with the prosecutor when he asked isn't millions of dollars made a successful career. I would say that was very successful but he wants to ram home that he was an addict and that wasn't the question.

His addiction paved his pathway to hell and beyond. In a world where lies become truths, there is no light.

Who stops and thinks how many seconds they were on the phone , or how many steps you take when your going outside .

The fact that he denied of shooting his family but his head is shaking "yes" is very concerning...

Love how they read off allllll the people he lied to. Haha the list seemed to go on forever. And the jurors think they are so special that he is going to be truthful to them.

like how he shakes his head yes when answering no to shooting his wife and son then looks supermad and huffs 4:25

He is a great combo of a politician and a lawyer! 😂

This DA is clueless about addiction. AM is a classic addict.

Drug addicts are master manipulators. I have worked as a RN for many years, and learned early on about the manipulative behavior. Perfect example here.

He gave the police high level detail about a meaningless cat he saw, but completely left out that he took a dead chicken out of Bubbas mouth 4 minutes before they were shot, that's a very easy to remember detail of those ladt moments
