Clearly premeditated murder.
His son in the back looks lost
He will need support otherwise…will be lost
Who cares
He is thinking about the insurance money he will be able to collect soon. Why should he be sorry for that jerk who killed his brother and mother?
I really like this judge. Very very professional.
Enjoy your ramen noodles 😋
@Lora Smith you got that right, bon appétit 👍
@Lora Smith
Is torturing your kind of thing?
@Richard Westwood
Yeah…
And you’ve got to pile it up and add some other prison food items..lol 😆
@Harry Ballz Newz you know what you’re talking about, you’ve been there haven’t you?
@Richard Westwood
Of course I was 😂
he looks like he;s related to George Bush Jr.
This judge has been incredible, his son died very recently yet he decided to go through and see that justice is served.
Mature judge in a crazy society
He’s innocent
To bad you were not on the jury
🫶🏼 yeah to bad
Are you kidding ?!?
@Suzanne Brady I know, it’s absolutely absurd
Remember: taking drugs always makes you cool. If you hit a juke box, it will turn on.
QUESTION: Will convicted prisoners now be able to appeal their verdicts and sentences based on the fact that Alex was who prosecuted them? Can they claim that their prosecutor was high on opiates and couldn’t have been fit to make cases against them?
potentially
@Grinicide It’s happened in my county in TX. It was discovered that a DA and judge had a long term affair. So, convicted felons used that to appeal death sentences.
If he was framed, he would later die under mysterious circumstance in prison.
the elephant in the room…
He did it for their life Insurance!.
He would have been able to pay some of the money back he stolen.
nah he wouldn’t he would have kept doing what he was doing.
😔 his own wife and son had to pay the price.
If his other son was there he’d probably be a victim to.
“All around 😢”
Great job, Judge.
Candy 🍬🍭
I desperately Love this judge..
Premeditated Murdaugh.
so glad the apex devs are taking notice to the state of the game and are showing they care about the things that are happening!!!
Meanwhile in Canada, the sentence is probation for 90 days.
Crazy his last name almost sounds like murder.
