Agreed he'd run, but I doubt if he'll be able to make bond. Didn't we discuss earlier at one time who, if anyone, would put it up?? Maybe dear brother JM? I think everyone is trying to distance themselves from ole' Alex, unless he's got some really good dirt on someone. ;)

But at some level, money is money.......... and I do wonder if there is some scheme (since they are so good at schemes) that raises the money, even if borrowed. In so many cases of moneyed behaviour, it's not about wrong or right, just about winning.

Yep, anything is possible. I learn this practically every day following the case. I can see the scheming wheels burning even now....

Alex Murdaugh's attorneys file another motion to spring him from jail

Alex Murdaugh's attorneys file another motion to spring him from jail

In their most recent filing, they argue the $7 million bond set by Judge Alison Lee last month is "tantamount to no bond at all." They cited an email from a law firm controlling Murdaugh's finances that showed the attorney has less than $10,000 in his two accounts at Hampton's Palmetto State Bank.

....

Jmo he’ll leave if he gets out.

So less than 10K should help him cover his phone bill that his attorneys say he doesn’t have enough funds to pay:rolleyes:
 
A Hampton bank CEO, under scrutiny and named in a subpoena by the disciplinary arm of the state Supreme Court investigating Alex Murdaugh’s financial misconduct, was fired on Friday. Palmetto State Bank’s board of directors fired its CEO, Russell Laffitte, as allegations came to light that the executive was involved in cases in which Murdaugh is accused of financial impropriety. “Palmetto State Bank has this afternoon permanently severed the employment of Russell Laffitte, effective immediately. The bank and its board of directors remain fully committed to their customers, employees, shareholders, and the communities Palmetto State Bank serves,” said board of directors president Jan Malinowski, in a Friday statement.

I think that was more fits click bait so they could inform folks on the “breaking murder news” of a bank employee getting canned. I’m thru with fits and this whole show until, or if, anybody is ever arrested for this. I fear that we see June 7, 2022 come and go without anything.

Yeah I keep wondering if investigations have found any "off-shore" accounts. I would find it hard to believe someone stealing that many millions, over so many years, wouldn't sock some away...for a rainy day. Maybe there's a bunker somewhere, you know like an Escobar cache. Nothing would surprise me with this family and their associates.

... Although Murdaugh’s “Forge” account was said by Waters to be the destination for millions of dollars, by October 2020, it had only $839 in it, according to a Bank of America statement for that month. ...

I totally agree on the offshore accounts. If you spend decades stealing millions you sure as heck want to hide it. It may also explain so many large checks over so long a period to CES - he was merely a "courier" to help get ill-gotten money into offshore accounts without AM getting his hands dirty. JMO

Certainly arrests of the murderer(s) is coming soon, SLED has their act together and are making certain they have a “bullet proof” case.

Wow, informative article....
I just hope you and others will keep trying to post details from the FITS articles. I guess I have "three more" since it is the new year.....

I think we found out that we could not get to the fits articles through the incognito window??? Hopefully others will provide clarity on how to get to the articles without a subscription..

Since when is bond determined by what is in the accused’s bank accounts?
 
Pamela Pinckney is one of Bamberg’s new clients who Murdaugh allegedly stole from. Murdaugh and his co-conspirators are accused of stealing approximately $1 million from the Pinckney family between 2011 and 2017, according to Bamberg.

https://www.fitsnews.com/2022/01/07...plegic-deaf-man-in-2011-scheme-attorney-says/

In the Pinckney case, one of the checks that was allegedly stolen was written directly to Palmetto State Bank. That check was for over $300,000, according to documents obtained by FITSNews.

Alex Murdaugh appeared to be involved in the wrongful death lawsuit, according to documents obtained by FITSNews. The documents show that Alex’s office staff prepared all the requests for documentation and did it in his name, not Lee’s name or in the name of PMPED.

...

I hope ppl learn from this, no dang reason for a lawyer be directing ppl to a bank. It’s a financial advisor you need. If you don’t like the plan see another then decide how you want to receive YOUR money.
