VALERIE BAUERLEIN: Alex Murdaugh; Crime, Corruption, Cover-Ups & Murder
Listen now
Description
It is a gripping story of family dynasties, abuse of power, corruption, cover ups and murder.  While on trial for the 2021 murders of his wife and son - Maggie and Paul - Alex Murdaugh spoke of the 'tangled web we weave'.  Wall Street Journal reporter Valerie Bauerlein has masterfully untangled that web in her new book, The Devil at His Elbow, and - as someone who followed every detail of this case - I could not get over just how much I learned reading this book. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I appreciated chatting with Valerie. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
