Maybe Harpootian and Griffin can do it pro bono for their buddy, Murdaugh. They might should have had one less lawyer for he trial? That’d have left a few funds available.
Now that Murdaugh is a convicted felon, there shouldn’t be any question about shackled or not. Plus, he won’t have a choice of what to wear for his other trials.
Perhaps had the defense Dream Team booked $47 a night rooms at the Walterboro Econo Lodge in lieu of $20 Large weekly at the luxury venue they stayed in for 6 weeks they might have a little left to blow on a token appeal.
Not one more dime on behalf of Murdaugh. He watched Gloria Satterfield’s trailer home, where her challenged adult son was living, be foreclosed on as he pocketed the money he stole from suing his own insurance companies on her two sons’ behalf. And his “Dream Team” spent $20,000 per week, complete with chef, on an exclusive-use 500-acre venue property with swimming pool, during theirvstay in Walterboro. Public defenders would be most appropriate now. Murdaugh victims got Cory Fleming.
Jen Wood should update the caption under her photo. The double murder trial is no longer “upcoming” but is already done. Accurate research and reporting begins at home. BTW, Justin Bamberg would first have to establish standing to object to a motion in a case in which his clients are not parties. But he probably lost any standing he would have had by going to social media first instead of holding his arguments on standing to a court.
I support decency, SCIENCE, and the Constitution. Science tells us that human beings do NOT die the moment their i-phones lock and many other things which make it PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE for Alex Murdaugh to have committed those murders. The Constitution (as interpreted by the U.S. Supreme Court) tells us that a criminal defendant has due process rights to freedom from prejudicial publicity and to a jury of his peers, not a jury of his haters, which Alex Murdaugh received. And decency tells us you do not (figuratively) dance on two people’s graves and, without basis, mock the tears of a grieving father and widower. Decency tells us you allow a self-admitted addict to recover and rehabilated and call him what he is, a patient, not a monster.
Just as you think this bunch of narcissists can’t come up with something even more disgusting…BANG! Let’s get the victims of his crimes to pay for his defence. What a bunch of unconscionable assholes. You have to be some sort of higher-level narcissist and psychopath to come up with that. Murdaugh truly believes he’s getting out, according to his phone calls. His appeal will fall flat on its face. Statler and Waldorf will walk away all the richer from a pointless appeal and that’s what’s happening here. What are the grounds for his appeal? They were utterly poor during the trial, misunderstanding tech information and making themselves look like dinosaurs. They abused witnesses because they had nothing else. I don’t believe that there is any basis for any appeal. If Dick was getting death threats before this new revelation, he’d better go and live on the moon if this stroke is pulled. It’s utterly disrespectful. Alex Murdaugh should be thankful that he’s not sitting on Death Row and do the honourable thing by serving his sentence. There isn’t a person on the planet that doesn’t know about this case. Who would dare to overturn the court’s decision? It;s disrespectful tp Maggie and Paul and yet, he cares not. He cares about one person, as he always has.
According to you, Larry Youngblood, Sam Sheppard, and Michael Morton, to name just three of the THOUSANDS of later-exonerated people, should never have pursued their own appeals just because they had been convicted by a jury, not of their true peers but of their haters. Yet, you laid your finger on a nerve I began to worry about as soon as Alex Murdaugh’s defense announced intent to appeal: intimidation of the appellate courts through pre-appeal and circum-appeal prejudicial publicity. After all, there ARE statistical studies indicating that sentencing courts and appellate courts are influenced by public opinion in death penalty cases. Theory in one thing, reality is another. God protect us all from the lynch mob.
I love to read comments from people like SubZeroIQ, I’m sure she thought OJ was innocent as well. You are basically saying that if I rob a bank and get caught, I get to keep the money is stole from the bank to pay my defense lawyers. I’m guessing you are a left wing liberal, who prove every time you speak that you are one of the liberals, “who don’t know, you don’t know!”
Not that I owe a disclosure of my beliefs, but because I am proud of them: I believe that life begins at FERTILIZATION, which is even earlier than IMPLANTATION and that drugs and IUDs which work by preventing implantation COMMIT MURDER of the unborn by homelessness. I believe marriage is between one man and one woman BUT ONLY ONCE unless one side commits adultry, which means MOST DIVORCES are adultries. I believe the death penalty AND WAR are state-sanctioned murders. And, that is the part which will make you hate me most, America has neither the best legal system nor the best medical system in the world. BTW, I am scientifically convinced that O.J. committed the two murders of which he was acquitted, WHICH PROVES JURIES CAN GET IT WRONG either way: they can acquit the guilty and convict the innocent. Nothing is magical about juries, specially if subjected to the horrendous prejudicial AND INTIMIDATING publicity, which YOU have been extending against Alex Murdaugh’s constitutional right to appeal. 2nd BTW, I hold two graduate degrees, speak four languages, and defended myself SUCCESSFULLY and WITHOUT A LAWYER against fake criminal charges before a jury with Judge Clifton Newman presiding. What is it that you think YOU know more than I do which allows you to insult my intelligence, integrity, and education?

You would be very lucky if there were “people like SubZeroIQ.” She is unique and has the courage and culture to speak her conscience. But thanks for unwittingly recognizing her uniqueness by posting your reply twice.
God willing, before the year ends, Richard Alexandar Murdaugh (“AM”) shall be freed on appeal. His trial was so tainted with prejudicial pre-trial and circum-trial publicity it cannot even be called a trial. He was convicted, not by a jury of his peers as the Constitution guarantees, but by a jury of his haters and of media-parroters. Before AM, Sam Sheppard was wrongly convicted of the murder of his wife, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed due to the prejudicial publicity, and Lo and Behold, the real killer was found later. Between Sam Sheppard and AM, time-wise, was Micheal Morton, who spent 25 years wrongly imprisoned for the murder of his wife when another man had committed that murder AND the Prosecution had leads it could have followed to the real killer. AM is a reformed addict and has faced up to his past misdeeds with courage and dignity. He should not remain convicted of murders of which he is innocent. I thank God for the few honest and perceptive people who have the decency to comfort AM with supportive letters to his prison cell. I was a prisoner and you did not visit me, said the Jesus Christ whose crucifiction the Western Church celebrates today. God bless.

How much does that thief have in escrow??? I’m shocked he hadn’t figured out how to hide that…
Hey Dick,
Create a GoFundMe for Alex.

They should be “proud” to represent “Elick” pro bono!

Prison jumpsuit with ankle and wrist shackles.

SubZeroIQ, Sounds to me like you might be one of the 1% who support the Monster Alex…
