The Murdaugh Mystery? Part 3 — Four Texts Sat in Alex’s Phone for Four Years
Four texts sat in Alex Murdaugh’s phone for four years. They were sent the morning after Maggie and Paul were killed by Curtis Smith, the distant cousin called Eddie, and they were not on the eighty-eight-page timeline a SLED agent walked the 2023 jury through. A South Carolina news site published them in July of 2025 from preserved phone data, and Alex’s lawyer said the defense had not known about them. Part 3 works through every name the record will actually carry. The stranger Alex described to the first deputy. The people tied to the boat crash. A Yemassee officer. And unknown male DNA that a judge ordered sent to a Texas lab in October of 2026, over the state’s objection. Each name runs into the same problem. Smith has not been charged in the murders.
