Ep 304: The Murdaugh Murders REMASTERED: Analysing the Timeline of Events cont. Part 10

Show Notes

The Hulu’s series, ‘Murdaugh: Death in the Family’ has generated renewed interest in the case. This special release of the original investigative series Laura shared in April 2023 is in addition to recent interviews about the series. Incensed that Maggie had become a footnote in her own murder, Laura began her deep dive that to fix the narrative and deconstruct and decode Alex Murdaugh’s behaviour with forensic precision. 

Don’t forget to listen to the new episodes with Mandy Matney and creators of the show, starting from Ep 285 and join in for additional episodes and interviews with Mandy Matney, Erin Lee Carr, Liz Farrell and David Moses in the Crime Analyst Squad: patreon.com/CrimeAnalyst

Laura continues to detail the micro timeline and shares her thoughts about Alex Murdaugh’s phone being dark for an hour and then the phone springing back to life, capturing concentrated steps of activity in a four-minute window by Murdaugh, just minutes after Maggie and Paul are killed. But that’s not the only thing the data reveals about Murdaugh’s actions and behaviour that night. Join Laura as she breaks it down. You won’t want to miss this.
