What if a Snapchat video proved someone lied about their alibi? On the night of June 7th, 2021, Paul
00:00:07
Murdaugh filmed a quick Snapchat video at the dog kennels on his family's estate. He was doing it to show his like
00:00:13
friend's dog or whatever. But the important part wasn't what you could see, it was what you could hear. Cuz in
00:00:19
the background there were three voices, Paul's, Maggie's, and Alec. And that video timestamped just before the
00:00:26
murders of Paul and Maggie. The problem is Alec told police that he hadn't been at the kennels that night, but he was at
00:00:31
the main house and then visiting his mother. So that Snapchat video proves he lied and it became one of the most
00:00:37
critical pieces of evidence at trial. So I wonder if this video hadn't been taken, do you think Alec Murdaugh would
00:00:43
have walked free?
