The Murdaugh Murders REMASTERED: Analyzing Alex Murdaugh’s 911 Call, Part 2

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.

In this episode, Laura analyses the 911 call Alex Murdaugh made on June 7, 2021, in which he claimed he had discovered the dead bodies of his wife, Maggie, and his son, Paul.

Alex Murdaugh called 911 at 10.07pm and claimed he discovered their bodies at Moselle, the family’s 1770-acre estate in the small town of Islandton, South Carolina. Laura forensically deconstructs the call and identifies numerous red flags. Listener discretion is advised.
