First up we have a BIG update on the Gabby Petito and Brian Laundrie case.  We also give a quick rundown on the case of missing girl Cleo Smith, who disappeared from her family’s tent in Western Australia over the past weekend.  

 For anyone who is not familiar with this one, definitely start with Part One. Alex Murdaugh and his wife Maggie lived an affluent life with their two sons Buster and Paul in South Carolina. They were/are basically South Carolina Royalty - their family has been high profile in the area for decades. 

A few years ago, things started going really wrong for them - their housekeeper died mysteriously and Paul (allegedly) caused a boat crash while drunk that killed 19 y/o Mallory Beach. And then in June this year, Alex found Paul and Maggie murdered at one of the many homes they owned. Police have now reopened other cold cases in the area, looking for connections to the Murdaugh's. And to top it off, Alex allegedly paid someone to shoot him in the head in a suicide-for-hire insurance plot. 

In this episode we discuss (this synopsis is very general as I don’t want to spoil the story for anyone.  :

 - The reopening of the Stephen Smith case

- New information from Connor Cook about the boat crash that killed Mallory Beach – Connor was aboard the boat on the night of the accident

- Alex’s ‘suicide-for hire’ plot –  I can’t even begin to describe the whole debacle here

- Alex’s resignation from his law firm and his entry into rehab

- The ‘alleged’ misappropriation of funds by Alex from PMPED

- Updates on the lawsuits surrounding the boat crash

- More info on the Gloria Satterfield death settlement and Alex’s shady involvement in that case

- And we finish up with Alex in jail!
