    Prosecution did an excellent job tying everything together. The one I agree with for sure, based off experience, is that there is no way in hell that someone can take 1,000 mg of oxy a day and people _not_ know because, you'd be dead. There's no way someone can function on even half that much dope a day and keep going and doing like Alex did, elaborately scheming. And he claims he's had this "severe" addiction for over 20 years (since playing football in college), yet nobody _ever_ knew? There's no record mentioned of constant hospital trips for overdoses or trips to the nut hut. He's not dead. As a recovered alcoholic and drug addict, I know that addicts need more and more to reach a high we crave. We do this until the end result is death by overdose if we don't reach out for help. 1,000 mg of oxy a day. That's laughable. He would be _dead._
    And I don't care what anyone says, there's no way he spent millions to fuel his supposed drug addiction. He'd have more pills than he'd know what to do with. So, he was either selling or the money was going somewhere else. He's no addict. Just a greedy liar who couldn't even bring himself to admit that earning a million dollars makes one wealthy. No amount of money was enough for him.

    I go from thinking he is guilty to maybe not. But today that smirk on his face during prosecutors closing just made me sick. I think he will lie about anything and probably had someone with him. I really feel like he will get off as he has never had to pay the consequences. He has confessed to every theft he has committed that we know of hopefully he will be in prison the rest of his life but even so murder should not go unpunished. Such a waste of his life and family.

      @Joyce Morgan I'm kinda like u I'm thinking 🤔 like would he do that to Maggie I can see because she was talking about divorce and was saying well her sister said Maggie Said he never tells me anything or never gives me the whole truth about money deals fiances etc. But with all that said he did it because he was going to kill himself anyway I think and didn't have the balls to do it! I totally think he wanted to die with everything he was faced with! He wouldn't have a life Maggie would divorce him Paul would go on to do his own thing like BUSTER his father was dead his mom was practically gone he would have no job no money no property n he wouldn't be able to live like us NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS!

    It amazes me that there are people who believe he didn't do it. To me, those people lack common sense. Don't make excuses for despicable individuals who do nothing but lie, including whilst on the stand. AM didn't lie about that night due to drug paranoia. He lied because he truly thought he would get away with it, not knowing Paul had him on video literal minutes before the killings. And let's be honest, if it weren't for that, he probably would have gotten away with it. There's no other person who had motive or means to commit those murders than AM. Unless you actually believe in some random vigilante wielding family guns on the exact night that AM asked Paul and Maggie to come home to Moselle 😂 I do think AM threw a small bit of truth into his testimony, and that is Paul was killed due to the boat case... but not by some random vigilante. A lot of the evidence may be circumstantial, but it fits with the things we know to be true that AM tried to lie about from the beginning. Go ahead and point me in the direction of anyone else where it makes more sense than AM being the one who did it.

    I've seen many people speculate that AM either had help with this crime, or he hired someone to kill Paul and Maggie. There is no way this man would go down without taking anyone else involved with him. The only person he MIGHT not implicate would be Buster, but given the fact that he is clearly capable of killing the rest of his family I doubt that he would protect Buster either. I have heard nothing that would make me believe anyone else was involved. This was a most interesting trial, but very sad for everyone whoever crossed paths with AM...especially Paul and Maggie.

      I’m proud to have just marked twelve years clean and sober last month.
      Also I think the drugs are way more expensive now than when I was using. I’m betting his dealer realized this guy was hopelessly hooked AND rich and just took him for everything he could.
      I was getting mine from online pharmacies which no longer exist (this was 2006) and I spent at least $50K all told.

They joke about this not being a "lights and siren" thing, and the man nearest the mic says, "You don't want them to know you're coming." The female asks if the Jury was in two vans, or three, and mentions a road, "63".

      The gunshot to the back of her head blew out a chunk of her skull with hair on the chunk. It landed by her body and hairs were transferred . It was her hair in her hand

    She's the kiss of death. She is why Casey Anthony got away with it.

    Question *******.. I am quite confused … why wasn’t (or if he was/is) actively hiring PI’s to indeed look FOR their killers !?!??? He should hav spit up a reward !? So if he’s innocent, why on the hell.. isn’t he fighting to get the person (persons ) WHO indeed did this !?!? I think he is 💯 guilty.. however curious is that is a question the jurors could ask.. he is so not at fault , would never hurt his precious family . Well dammit get a seearch team out there with private investigators and even DOG/Dwayne Chapman …. Unless …🤔🤔🤔🤔😶😶 there is NOTany single human being to indeed look for !? Investigated etc.. etc.. etc.. I would be in that jail cell if I were him (and totally innocent I’d damn well put my entire being into getting Justice for his family !?? What is his excuse for this!?
