    THERE WERE FIVE MURDERS TIED TO THIS…AND IT WAS SAID THE OTHER SON MAY HAVE BEEN INVOLVED..I SES A FAMILY HISTORY OF PSYCHOS NOT OPIOIDS ALONE…MORE LIKE THE MAFIA

  2. Why is this such a big deal? Just a media puff piece plain and simple.

  3. This guy is a master manipulator! On top of that him being a lawyer. He knows what to see and carry himself

  4. " no I didn't not " if you didn't why you so scared ?! say yes I did ,sorry and go to the jail my redhead murder

  5. If he truly didn't have anything to do with it then that must be torture to sit through hearing details.

  6. Were they hostages cause Maggie's wounds sound like a hit man

  7. “On June 7th or any day or anytime”? Why would it be any other day than that?

  8. Can we get some actual news on the chemical spill that’s dumping all over us in the snow in upstate NY ??? In the oily looking ice storms that are dumping acid snow all over us ? But all we can seem to get is this garbage

  9. Ohh Alex is goood!
    I believe he did it and I HOPE that are judicial system doesn’t fail again and let another murderer walk free because of one juror…

  10. You people are addicted to mainstream news entertainment. Here are actual stats all black too

    February to Date
    Shot & Killed: 31
    Shot & Wounded: 97
    Total Shot: 128
    Total Homicides: 33
    Chicago Crime 2023

  11. I’m his son. He shot me. Lock him up.

  12. He’s obviously pleading for manslaughter…No tears, no mucus when he “cries” lock him up

  13. That was the worst testimony I’ve ever watched. Up analyzing he was all about spilling the beans on truthful details but, suspected lies this far, we’re a clear cut reaction that he couldn’t handle without looking obviously guilty (imho). I concluded he’s a narcissist and he truly believes he’s on another level of society than everyone else. Also, he actually “knows” everyone will believe him.

  14. Anyone notice he nodded yes to the questions on murder. He says no but nods yes

  15. He has EASILY lied and lied and lied some more. It matters not to me that he is now able to acknowledge his lies. Under oath or not I would not believe a word this wicked man says. He has become a garbage human being.

  16. As not a body language expert, I would question why he is nodding in agreement when he answers those questions.

  17. Already knew this guy was going to testify because he thinks he’s that good of an actor.

  18. He didn't trust the law but he represents the law. This guy comes across so manipulating.

  19. "No I did not" – while he's shaking his head up and down…..subliminal truths.

  20. Whether he is guilty or innocent, I am sick and tired of the news coverage

  21. Every time he was saying “no I did not”, his head was nodding yes, he is so screwed, that’s an almost certainty that he’s lying

  22. Nobody cares about your addictions to opioids. You have a rotten history of not being truthful.
    Lying right up until you took the stand and lied when you did take the stand.
    If you did these things and committed these murders I hope you receive hard prison time for the rest of your life.

  23. Objection….leading and compound.

  24. Be careful who u trust
    The devil use to be a angel

  25. I heard that a South African diplomat put a bomb on his toilet. Riggs came in to help pull him into the tub and out of harms way.

  26. Nodding his head yes while he says no

  27. He admitted he lied but now he’s telling the truth BS how are we supposed to believe him now because of his crocodile tears!!! He cries when it suits him I’ll not believing him

  28. Would be the first thing you would say if you did shoot them.

  29. He should be locked up for pronouncing MURDAUGH as MURDOCK. It’s just an abomination of the English language

  30. Hmm so who did? It's usually always the people closest that are the most suspect. His voice while testifying is shaky. Full of remorse.

  31. he is incredibly guilty

  32. I don't think he did it.

  33. Blubbering liar…smirk on his face.

  34. So who did if he was there, videotaped, five minutes before they died? If it wasn't him, then who was there? He had to have seen them.

  35. Yeaaaaah….he’s guilty AF
