## Resource

The complete interview with James Lasdun, author of The Family Man: Blood and Betrayal in the House of Murdaugh . Years of original reporting. Evidence the jury never saw. Psychology that's been documented for decades but never applied to this case. The book traces Alex's patterns back to the boat crash — where Morgan Doughty's first statement said Connor Cook was driving, before the story was rewritten. It surfaces deleted phone logs, backdated checks, and names prosecutors deliberately left off the jury's timeline. It reveals what the defense wanted to do at trial but couldn't — put Cousin Eddie on the stand after his failed polygraph. And it places Alex alongside documented family annihilators whose cases mirror his with chilling specificity. The psychology has been studied. The pattern is real. And it was hiding in plain sight. Everything in one conversation. The patterns, the gaps, and the darker truth.
