Minutes before she was murdered I don't think Maggie thought she was going to die that day.. He voice sounded so light hearted when she announced Bubba has a bird in his mouth. And Paul was absorbed in Cash and Cashes tail. Thank God for Cash, his attentive owner and Paul's friendship. Those three exposed the murderer.
If not for the chicken, Alex would not have called out to Bubba. The chicken was the hero.
What did they actually find in that dogs mouth? Drugs?, another woman’s bra? Maybe Alex found Maggie’s divorce papers and all of a sudden had to stop her.
Voice light hearted~? To me, she was screaming at the horror of it.
Good observation. There was no anger or any hint of something about to go awry. There could have been one or two people hiding somewhere and waiting for the chance to get to Paul. Many people had it out for that family. I'm still not 100% on a guilty verdict.
Psychopaths have the uncanny ability to switch emotions like flipping on & off the lights! Have watched it in practice! 1 second everything seems fine, then it seems they flip & all the sudden go from pleasant to extremely dangerous/deadly in the blink of an eye!
My husband was a prosecutor for 43 years and prosecutors just don't think like a juror. My husband would often ask me what I would look for during an investigation. I was a post-operative nurse and a artist therefore I've always have been a very detail oriented person. There were many times I came up with things that ended up being very pertinent in the investigation!
Thank God! The jury didn’t fall for his lies. What a monster!
His eyes not only look black, but beady. Has several faces. Wow.
I love Trey and his wanting to take Maggie and Paul through their day from the time they woke up that is brilliant
WOW, You set a low bridge to cross. You LOVE Trey?? Mr GAUDY is a blowhard looking for a gig on Fox news. Hilarious Can't take the "man?" seriously.
Agree! That was masterful!
Emily, you hit the nail on the head.
When a person thinks that his name and reputation are more important than the truth, he has lost his rationality and ability to respect human value.
Trey Gowdy is an absolute treasure. I’m so happy to be able to listen to his perspective!💜🙏🏻
He lost credibility with me because he left the government and he was doing such a good job there. Same with Nikki Haley in the UN.
The idea in the constitution was that “normal people” would serve in government, then return to their jobs.
An absolute treasure you gotta be kidding what did he ever accomplish he’s was biggest freaking wind bag in Congress along…. with that freaking other idiot that I can’t think of his name it reminds me of the kid on the Herman monster show back in the 60s….Matt Gates and Jim Jordan and a few others have more balls than Trey Gowdy ever did
Couldn't agree more.
Tray gowdy did nothing in congress tbh….he failed on the Hillary hearings so bad…as with many other topics he decided to pursue….
Tray has to be the sigular person, lawyer, I've listened to that can so clearly explain legality as well as he does.
He is one creepy dude, just saying.
👏👏👏
@@ecstanton - who is "He?" Do you use pronouns much in daily life, too? If you are "just saying," why bother "saying" ... using that wimp phrase?
I felt the longer AM talked the deeper he buried himself. It was so obvious he was lying and he was way too confident in himself.
''"I'm telling this jury'"'''
Obviously they did a great job!! The jury decided quickly!! I loved the prosecution’s final arguments!!
I think the jury decided their verdict before the trial ever started. The evidence was not concrete & I've heard many attorneys say they wouldn't have brought this case because the evidence was mainly circumstantial & very little evidence he did it. Other than a recording where they said it's his voice. How did he do so much in so little time with zero blood in his house anywhere? He should have been covered in blood had he done the killings. I'm concerned someone else did this & they are being hidden or just not investigated. Shabby police work it would appear. Guilty for sure of alot but guilty with such a horrible killing...where's the motive. What did he gain from both deaths? Too many unanswered questions.
Creighton Waters & his team did a great job prosecuting this case. John Meadors did a Outstanding Job in closing..
@@bellagrace2313 I disagree. I think the jury took their job seriously and looked at all the evidence. The case is a circumstantial case and circumstantial evidence is enough to convict. The snapchat video puts him at the Kennels minutes prior to the murders. He declared he wasn't at the Kennels until the snapchat video was retrieved. AM taking the stand was a mistake cause it might have been a hung jury if not. He was the last person to see them. His phone is silent (turned off) during the time of the murders, He claims to have checked the bodies but no blood anywhere on his clothing. His interviews he doesn't act like an innocent person. His vehicle data and the cell phones don't agree with his timeline.
My view is that the prosecution let Murdaugh talk on purpose and they knew exactly what they were doing.
Creighton Waters said just that in an interview last night! He knew Alex would talk through the long pauses and Creighton used that to show the jury just what Alex was!
@@ruthanne85 what? As a talker that felt he was getting a sliver of compassion from the grueling prosecutors? Lawyers are also game players and as much as I respect many of themI get tired of the self obsessed ones who seem to be as lacking in compassion as those they know how to manipulate. Plus our system is set up so that you are guilty and must be able to prove yourself innocent. And jails and prisons are set up to make money and cause mental anguish with time confusion,, crappy food and lack of ways of seeing the outside world. ....no windows/,no ocks, crappy mirrors ac nd EXPENDIVE SNACKS ETC. PROFIT MOTIVATED BUT UNSAFE EJNVIRONPMENTS. Sensory deprivation already in place for mental anguish to occur. Plus....what happens in jsils/,prisons stays in those places (, prisoner abuse).. Anyway the legal system thinks they have their killer so they skipped important steps. Alec will pay for his addiction as will those allover on the streets in freezing weather will pay for theirs. Drugs are a very common way of ruining your life and those of others who dont see the lack of consciousness coming as the drug addict is NOT able to act like the person he was beforehand .
@@ruthanne85 You're right, and thanks for speaking up. I wanted to, but you already had, so I'll just say "amen!"
Sometimes you don't get in your opponents way when they are in the process of self destruction! Letting him talk very much gave him every opportunity to give himself away while he functioned in his legal arrogance! You could almost see Creighton Water's bite his tongue numerous times not to get in the way of the snowball becoming an avalanche! Alex revealed much on the stand, & proved he is his own worst enemy!
@@sashalu13 Drugs weren't why he did what he did! They just helped him in process! Alex sunk himself from day 1! It was only a matter of time! And it was only a matter of time before their corruptive hold had a very big light shone on it!
Trey Gowdy never ceases to amaze me! I admire this man so much!!! What great perspectives!
Even though Gowdy is a "Republican" I truly think he is a "truth-telling" man" of "Integrity" and "dignity"!!! Hope I'm not wrong....
Trey Gowdy nails it again.
Nails it again? Huh???
Gowdy is dead wrong about his insistence Waters made a mistake allowing AM to go on way, WAY too long" - on the stand.
Nope, completely wrong! That strategy was actually KEY for the Jury to experience. Alex being allowed to talk way, WAY too, long...digging his own grave in the process.
So, IMO, Gowdy was WAY off in his assessment of Waters strategy on the stand.
@@barbarafairbanks4578 I disagree. I think AM went on way too long for no reason. Cut him off. He was able to take control. Thank god AM exposed his own lies.
@Mary Coleman Well, I adamantly disagree with your disagreement.😅
Waters did say in a post-conviction after trial interview on CNN that letting AM go on&on for so long on the stand was bc he knew AM would expose his own lies. So he decided to let Alex talk himself right into a conviction.
Some of us recognized this as a smart strategy on Water's part as it was happening, but many did not.
Some began to recognize this as a clever strategy well before the guilty verdict. Some of those who initially saw it as a flawed cross, began to recognize it as being a clever strategy only AFTER the convinction, and some NEVER did.
But it was exactly this strategy that won the day.
You said so yourself, "thank god AM exposed his own lies." That would not have happened had Water's "controlled his witness."
Obviously the best was chosen; they did an excellent job proving their case ❤️ congratulations to the extremely successful team ❤️
I love both of your common sense and perspective. Trey Gowdy, awesome individual with tons of integrity.
The one juror that spoke to a reporter said "Alex was a good lier, just not good enough!
I was married into an “entitled family” but I never realized it until this trial. And hearing Trey say it was so affirming to me. I think, “Girl, you survived an entitled family!” I am over feeling I could have prevented a divorce. I could have made them like me if I tried hard enough. It was normal to “fix” things. This trial has been life changing for me because I finally know the PTSD was real. I know who they are and I forgive them. Ty Trey. Ty Emily. 🙏❤️
I wouldn't think using the word "survived" about your entitled life with your family as a good chose of words. What? do you want sympathy? You knew dame well who and what your family was. So best not be live a life of delusion and thinking you "survived" anything. Goofy
LOL that you attribute an end to PTSD to Sir Trey Gaudy. Ohhhhhhhh, LOLlllll
Trey Gaudy is a man of integrity.
A Great American leader. Listen to
What he explains. 10:20
I didn’t watch all of the trial but I thought at one point it was stated that it was almost impossible for him to have committed the crime. This was because of his height. He is apparently a lot taller than the victims were. The positioning of the weapons and all that.
Now that we know everything we know.....I feel like the evidence discovered on Paul's phone (Alex VOICE)...is and was "Divine Providence." Paul, the "Little Detective", became the "hero" in revealing the KILLER. Divine Providence. Alex believed: "I can get away with this".....God said: "No you are not!!"
and God used both dogs 1st Cash with his tail was the reason for the video and then Bubba getting the chicken caught Alex on audio
Same -I definitely felt there was Devine Intervention 🙏
@@maryannenizio5074 I wondered if Alex did something to the dog's tail to get Paul and Maggie there since they were such lovers of the animals?
Maggie's sister said Alex was more concerned about clearing Paul's name than finding the killer.
I thought Maggie's sister testimony was excellent. I wonder if she suspected Alex. She did a great job with statements like the one you mentioned, planting seeds of doubt about his innocence. In my opinion she came across as someone, during the questioning process, was beginning to question the innocence of het brother-in-law. Great job.
Bingo!!
She is in tough spot, too. She doesn’t want to lose her sister’s only remaining child. A true tragedy all the way around.
Ye that says enough
I feel sorry for Buster
Great episode with these two. Trey is well spoken, intelligent and down to earth. Emily asks good questions and offers interesting connections.
Both outstanding in how they present information.
I always wished Trey Gowdy would run for president.
naw, he's only good at some things. you have to have overall governance Big Picture special powers, to be a president of this nation and do it well. as we have seen, some presidents don't really have that either.
@@theCosmicQueen your nuts!
BARF !!!
You and Me Both!
😂😂😂
Excellent evaluation, Trey and Emily! So glad the jury found Alex Murdaugh guilty on all four counts. What a long trial but had much to ponder for years to come.
Prosecution attorney Meadors had a great storytelling Rebuttal for the prosecution! ♥️♥️
Unheralded. A great closer. He had some of the best moments the trial, the a genuine story teller, the way he imagined the victims. A story was told, well told.
@@gracewoodard9134 :Yes, indeed -he brought the REAL story to the jury so they could see through and recognize evil in the flesh… I loved the southern style of his theatrical “come to Jesus” moment for the ultimate conviction of Alec Murdaugh now Maggie and Paul can finally Rest In Peace 🙏♥️♥️
Ye awesome
Alex built no favor with the jury. They saw straight thru him!!!!
Mr. Waters and the jury did an excellent job !!
Wow. Not normally a huge Trey Gowdy fan but he was clearly in his natural comfort zone here. Very impressive. I think Fox needs to rethink how to best utilize Gowdy's experience, intelligence and skills.
I’m thinking exactly that, too!
Could not agree with this comment more!!! The trick is always to find the best venue for one of your hosts. It's a waste of his talent to put him where he is in the Fox lineup. Surprised that the Fox team has not figured this out. In fact these two are good together. Seems like they respect each others opinions. Also, it's the classic young attorney learning from the seasoned more experienced one: Emily and Trey. They have a hit on their hands if only they would see it. Also, Court TV is so horrible and it should be fabulous. These two would draw greatly from Court TV!! or the other Banfield or the like.
I’m also not a big Trey Gowdy fan but he’s actually very interesting to listen to. I completely agree with him! I thought AM was able to go on way too long.
Disagree. The prosecutor brought up prominence for so many reasons. He wanted the community to think he was a higher human than the comoners. A special entitled human. He believed he was a prominent elitist member of the community. He was so arrogant. He cared more about his "good name" and keeping his lifestyle going more than he cared about his wife and son. The family legacy. It turns out their family is worse than the average community family. Some bad genes there. He thought that killing his wife and son would keep him out of jail and continue the lie about himself and his "prominent" family. He was trying to save the "family " name. Not because he cared about his family, but because he cared about himself.
well said
Why be critical of the prosecution when they won?
Alex loved only Alex
Paul was a loose cannon. Expendable. When Randolph was sure to pass, S Carolina law is that she would have been entitled to half of whatever was coming Alex’s way. She probably didn’t know of all of the loans his daddy made to him at that time either. So many reasons he made to himself to justify their killings.
The whole family thought highly of themselves. In reality None of them had any morals, or qualities. Money and family legacy turn them into horrible entitled human beings.
Some sociopaths commit the most shocking crimes and leave the most revolting crime scenes in order to make bad personal consequences go away: the more horrible the crime scenes, the more 'sympathy' they hope to get and everyone letting go of their claims against them.
The fact is that the State got their conviction and justice was served. I applaud them for that! This was an incredibly hard case for any prosecutor to handle
Trey is so interesting and his perspective is spot on...great job!!
Letting the jury hear this liar talk was a GREAT IDEA. Murdaugh revealed his creepiness completely. Good prosecutor!
One very important fact that seems to be missed or not given the weight or attention it deserved is the fact that Alex requested, or maybe even demanded, that both Maggie and Paul be at Moselle that night. He used his father's failing health condition to lure Maggie back and he used wanting the area/grounds cleaned up I believe due to an upcoming hunting expedition with his friends forcing/demanding Paul be there to get it done that night. So Maggie comes back only to have Alex go visit his mother without her. They don't even go to see his father. So where's the urgency of having her back at the Moselle property? Paul arrives home as ordered and whether or not he cleaned what was requested of him, could that not have waited until the next morning/day? Again, where is the urgency that he be there that night? It is more than obvious exactly why Alex needed them both to be there that night. My opinion only.
I concur!
Great show Emily and Trey. I admire you both always, but this show was really informative and and very inciteful. I think that shame of the family is a very real motive for the murders. This family's reputation is THE most important thing. It's been that way for so many years.
The minute that I heard about the financial crimes, it all made sense to me.
Love Emily's and Treys insightful analysis.
Trey Gowdy is a great human being
❤️ just so clear and always right on the spot.
A PERSON WHO TAKE'S, AS A DEFENSE LAWYER. I BELIEVE , IS A LAWYER , WHO TRULY BELIEVES THIS PERSON, IS INNOCENT. OTHERWISE , YOU ARE AS GUILTY AS THE CRIMANAL.
All talk and fake.
@@geebee3100 💯
@@geebee3100 , don't forget Benghazi.
Emily did a great job asking the right questions, steering the conversation, and drawing out the wisdom of Gowdy. Kudos to the host
Don't forget his wife was going to leave him. He claimed he always wanted his wife home, which shows he was a possessive man. He wanted to control everything and everyone. HE had to control the narrative in what the public perception of the family and him would be. He was losing a lot and his world was falling apart and he didn't have time to detail the lies to get out of it all.
There has been no evidence that Maggie was consulting a divorce attorney. Her own sister gave evidence under oath in the courtroom that Maggie was happy, whatever happy means. Some women are so invested in “living large” that they close their eyes to facts surrounding them. It could not have escaped her attention that she was married to a very self centered man. Her beloved son Paul was out of control and very likely would be serving many years in prison. It all ended in tragedy for everyone.
Betty cattk , you're absolutely correct!
I agreed to you.
You both are great at analyzing this whole trial and situation. Thank you! Enjoyed this very much.
He is narcissist! Creighton let him talk and incriminate himself, which he did, plus the fake tears! Give juries more credit, people aren't stupid!
Creighton let him go on strategically but it was a risk. I’m sure some at the table wished for a bit tighter cross.
It wasn't fake...they straight lied to get indictment they said there was blood on tshirt no there was no blood .they also brought in finiacl stuff that he did ..that was wrong you not suppose to do that ..also no weopen ..also there was a hair on Maggie but sled didn't check it out ..and same with footprints and the DNA undet bet nails ..sloppy job
Exactly!!!!
I'm glad the 3 jurors listened to reasoning and quickly agreed on a guilty verdict.
@@aliced7505 wrong they were bully into change mind 3 hour is a joke that not justice at all .
He will be fine in prison scamming the inmates for snacks and protection.
I liked how Creighton let him run his mouth long enough for him to lie again, that was his strategy, let a narcissist liar talk until he tangles in his own web.
Meaders rebuttal closing was brilliant
Love Trey so much! Glad we're from the same state and county. He's very smart, articulate and keeps everything in perspective no matter the subject. Too bad he's no longer in DC. He could've ran for president. Then all the swamp creatures would be looking for a different swamp in another country!
Excellent analysis. Thank you
Not really when you think about it 🚬🤔
I’m so glad I found this. I was hoping to hear Trey’s insight into this case. Excellent presentation.
Love Emily’s & Trey’s take on this trial! So interesting! I’m hooked.

100% love this guest! Please bring him on more! And more! Anymore!
Trey Gowdy, US House of Representatives, 2011-2019, South Carolina
Apparently this was filmed before the conviction!!!?!?!?!
2 things stumped me on this case-
He says he was taking 50K in drugs a week. Lets do the math. Street price of the drug he was on is around $20 a pill. Lets go big & say he took 10 a day. That's $200 daily. Lets say he was taking another with roughly the same cost. We are now up to 20 pills daily @ $400 for a day habit. That's a $2800 weekly habit- that is not 50k a week, like was said by defense. That's me calculating him popping 2 every other hour 24/7. Where the heck did all that money go. My guess, someone will find out or come forward to tell where it all went.
Second- he called Maggie to come over from the beach to come see who? his daddy who was put into the hospital that day, cause he was dying. She drives over to meet him so they can go. What does he do, he don't stop to pick her up to go to the hospital with him, heck, he don't even go to the hospital, he goes to his mom's- and she ain't even dyin'.
Red flag right there, not goin' to daddy's hospital bedside that night. Her sister said she didn't even want to go. Alex just leaves her at the kennels with Paul after she drove an hour to go with him to see him just to go check on his mom instead. We will never know if he actually did this or someone helped him but either way = guilty.
But oh Paul, you did get the last word didn't you.
That's my thought on it, he didn't bring her to see his dad.
Some theorize he had a gambling debt, the pills don't add up to $50k a week. Also, speculation of drug running. Did Paul n Maggie confiscate inventory rather than personal stash?
AM did say that whoever did this planned it for a long time. So, maybe that was why he thought it would go off without a hitch. And it might have, except for Paul sending that Snapchat video to Rogan.
I thought they said the video was never sent.
@@shirleyashanti3031 Maybe "recording the video" would have been better wording. It took 1.5 years to unlock the phone.
How refreshing to see 2 people who really know their stuff.
Emily is so tight on detail and Trey boils down the law perfectly.
Congrats guys... This was awesome.
So many of the other talking heads have been horribly half baked.
I have wished he would be POTUS for many years.
Love y’all both, especially the stunning Emily Compagno ❤️Congressman Gowdy is an exceptional attorney & legal analyst. Thanks for your collective insights 👊
Id like to know what Trey thinks about the state bringing in all the financial crimes
I hope the same logic is brought to the public's attention regarding the President and his family; the hubris, the desperation of a family who would do anything to save the family name including sell out his country.
We can not say this enough !! America is Worthy of Saving 🙏⚔️🇺🇸
Which President are you referring to?
@@gracewoodard9134 Brandon
Trump, right?
You are so right! Survive this war. We are at war and we are targets. It's all about money. That's why this trial was so cathartic, though very sad. Accountability at the end of the day is rare these days.
I enjoy hearing a politician not talking politics but life, flaws, strategies that include pathologies. Have new respect for this man.
Emily did a great job interviewing Trey.
Good synchronicity they had.
Attention little children, lies, lies and more lies will cause people to not believe you even if you are telling the truth. And you could end up in prison for life.
Trey for Attorney General!
Thank you, I enjoyed this. Good idea to talk to Trey Gowdy, the prosecutor we first became aware of on Forensic Files. The aspect of a prominent attorney makes it a much more interesting story like a NYT bestseller. Yes, she's right, the fact that he came from such an esteemed family mattered; you could see the esteem given to him by the cops that night. They usually aren't that civil at an arrest scene....
Te deference given to Murdaugh could have cost state the trial. Thankfully the jury listened & observed.
Oh yes I saw a very young Trey Gowdy on FF. I thought “He looks so familiar.”😊
@@marycoleman6963 that blew my mind... then totally recalled him on that show! Too funny.
He got the conviction, The jury had his number.
Thank you sooo much! I understand this better by far. You two make a fabulous duo!!!
Great interview!
Waters said he let Alex keep speaking on purpose. He wanted the jury to hear him.
I agree, it was the best decision to just let him talk, so all the jurors could hear him lie and try to explain things away and then lie more and more. All jurors interviewed basically said it was not good decision to him to testify. You know, when your enemy is making mistake, don't interrupt.
Great analysis by two brilliant people.
Both are lawyers and can't really be trusted...
i had no idea emily had this podcast................ i really enjoyed it. she and trey are two of my favorite people
The short period of deliberation for the Jury in the Murdaugh case indicates how little DOUBT about their verdict. GUILTY... WAY BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT !
Only from those 12. Unfortunately, are the 12 that counted. I would have voted not guilty.
@@DJ-hf1zo Respectfully, DJ, appreciate that you are free to express your opinion... as ALL of We the People should be.
However, I am so thankful that you were not a member of the Jury in this case. Hope you have a good day. 🙂👍
When deliberations started, only 9 were voting guilty, 2 were voting not guilty, and 1 was undecided.....so no, it WASN'T way beyond a reasonable doubt. Even AFTER the verdict and sentencing, even Maggie's Sister is still not convinced Alex did this...get real. There are those of us who feel the lack of any tangible evidence/forensic evidence leaves doubt. This case was decided on strictly suspicion , allegation, and assumption... and the “court of public opinion “ via all these outside media such as Netflix and HBO ( which are not necessarily fact based, they’re put together by biased entities). I would have voted not guilty as well....due to this fact and the Judge's juror instructions and the way our system is designed (innocent until PROVEN guilty beyond doubt), when there is any doubt whatsoever then the benefit goes to the defendant. That is a juror's duty.
@@debbiebradley-spicer8524
Agreed.
@@debbiebradley-spicer8524 Apparently, that is why Judge Newman in his instructions to the Jury... PRIOR to their deliberations... made clear the weight of "Circumstantial" evidence.
Not to be ignored by anyone, it is Alex Murdaugh himself confessed that he is a proven chronic LIAR. The most important LIE in regard to the MURDERS of his wife Maggie and son Paul... was his epic LIE about not being at the kennels with Maggie and Paul at the time of the murders! Call it "coincidence" or whatever you may choose... but the hardcore factual physical evidence was the recording on Paul's phone with the voice of Alex present! Personally, I call that a clear example of unintended "Karma" style self-defense on Paul's part... OR... I happen to believe it was clear example of "Divine Intervention" to expose the TRUTH of the horrific act that took place at the time Maggie, Paul and Alex were in FACT all at the scene of the crime when it happened. Circumstantial evidence... along with Common Sense... provided the Jurors whether innocence or guilt in short order. While the Jurors opinions were not likely a clone of 12 people... the deliberations did provide the time to be certain that their verdict would be unanimous... as it was reported.
Trey, you are from there, right? If you have good intuition and even worked with this family, tell us of any incidences where your internal radar light flickered.
The honorability of a man is in his speech and in his actions. Trey Gowdy is one of the most honorable men alive today. I for one am proud that he is on our side. A GODLY MAN IS WORTH MORE THAN GOLD.
I don't know if i"d go that far. While Trey is very good as a prosecutor, he was kind of two-faced as a Senator as I recall. You could not trust him to hold his position on matters that were important to the Conservative cause and he played both sides of that coin in a manner of speaking.
Chilling like a villain with Trey and Emily from Canada
Trey. What you said reminded me of John Kerry saying it’s ok for HIM to fly all over because he’s doing important work. He is in the same caliber as AM, IMO.
Rep. Gowdy is so spot on. This is a great analysis.
LOVE TREY GOWDY!
He doesn't even remember the last conversation he had with them oh, I'm sure it was not a nice conversation.
Been long time viewers of you both and have mad respect. Thank you for this podcast.
What a great soul Trey, the paradoxical eloquence is amazing
Tremendous conservative values. He's got my vote on anything.
I wish Trey that you would have been that successful in the Hillary Clinton case 😢 America would be a better place right now 😮
Trey did a superb job. Then Paul Ryan shackled him. I'm certain it soured Trey.
Wow! That was interesting! Great job to both Emily and Trey! 💯🔥🤟🤙
Why didn't SLED secure Alex for questioning? Why didn't SLED get a search warrant for Almeda immediately? They would have if it had been anyone else
You guys know your stuff. Great job.
Lots of “prominent” families take advantage of situations. Some however are beaten constantly over the head that they owe so much to their communities and families that they should never indulge in bad behavior and are held to a higher standard. That was the true meaning of nobless oblige.
Not-so-smart Alec, here, was so convinced he could persuade that jury with his country boy act that he lost sight of the fact that they all knew his family history.
Love the hat and happy Saturday to you 🚬🙂

Emily!! You're awesome 💥 Can't wait to watch this.
Me too!! I always make sure my house is tidy just in case LOL
I wish Trey was running for president I would vote for Trey Gowdy for president.
In a heartbeat!!!
So would I and I’m in Australia. I loved watching Mr Gowdy when he was a Congressman.
I love Trey Gowdy. He has a great mind and emotes savy integrity. No wonder he couldn’t stand Washington, DC. (Even though we desperately need his integrity in DC). Loved this interview!
Absolutely fantastic interview❤
This was amazing! Look forward to hearing more!
I absolutely love Trey Gowdy!! I knew he would show people the truth ! Trey is the Best !! ❤❤😀🇺🇸
I laughed when Emily said she tidies her apartment in case she’s ever murdered and CSI comes in to inspect it. I think all of us true crime addicts never discount the idea that we could be murdered
I enjoyed listening to both of your opinions. Excellent.
Really enjoyed listening to you. Thank you.
I disagree with Trey on the cross. Alex can't stand silence and feels he has to say something to show "control". By letting him ramble, he had to fill the silent void and did/could say something that made him look bad. Similar when Alex would not give back exhibits to the prosecutor. He was showing control. I noticed it so maybe the jury also noticed it.
The prosecutor wanted him to talk .. he knew he would talk and show himself up .. which he did. The more he talked the more guilty he looked and sounded .. imo
I love this interview!
Great Podcast Emily, and such a great guest in Trey Dowdy! Look forward to more.
Still have my doubts, something just doesn't add up.
I feel the same.
It all adds up Paula.
