The New Dexter

[Blind Gossip] Have you ever watched the movie American Psycho? Or the TV series Dexter?

Bot of these fictional productions depict men who lead double lives.

They seem rather normal in their everyday lives. However, they actually harbor terrible dark impulses that can’t be controlled.

With Dexter Morgan and Patrick Bateman in mind, we will tell you that there is a real criminal case out there right now where the main male figure may be that kind of person!

Here’s what we heard.

Law enforcement has formed several working theories about what happened.

One of the most interesting is that [the dear departed] knew about or witnessed another significant crime he had committed. He had to take them out so that his original crime/s would not be exposed.

So the theory is that the suspect may have committed multiple crimes.

He committed the first crime/s.

Someone close to him found out.

Before they could go to the police or hire an attorney, he stopped them.

In other words, he felt compelled to commit another terrible crime in order to prevent his original crime/s from being exposed.

Law enforcement now has the difficult task of working multiple criminal cases simultaneously to determine if they were completely unrelated or if he is connected to both. If they are able to definitively establish the connection, they can then formally charge him with multiple crimes.

While it is just be a working theory at this point, it would be jaw-dropping if our suspect was found to be responsible for both crimes. 

There are some sick people out there and this suspect may be one of them. We hope that law enforcement is able to find justice for those he harmed.

By the way, while the suspect is not a famous celebrity, you are likely familiar with the case because of the headlines it has generated.

    This is definitely Brian Laundrie , Gabby Petito and the recently married couple. The police believe the connection bc they can place Brian and Gabby at the restaurant that one of the women worked at during the same time. My guess is he’s a narcissistic sociopath that played mind games with Gabby to make her feel isolated and dependent on him. She found out what he did and she needed to be eliminated (in his mind). He’s obvs a master at this; even his parents are covering for him.

    Suspect or Case: Kristin Smart/Paul Flores

    [Optional] What do you think happened? He killed her because he’s psycho and his parents covered for him. Neither parent looks like they’re playing with a full deck. Wonder what the sister knows but didn’t she move to Sweden or Norway to get away from them?

  4. Teslasgirl369 says

    That psychotic American lawyer who tried to fake his own death, after most likely killing his wife and son. Mudaughh, I think his name is.

  5. parkland45 says

    Alex Murtaugh. The first murder was a 19 year old gay man who was rumored to be “friends” with Alex’s older son. His younger son, drunk & piloting a boat at night w/ friends, hit some type of submerged wall ? & a young woman was thrown out of the boat& died. A judge said he wasn’t at fault. Then son & his mom were killed. But a housekeeper was also murdered. Alex has been busy.

    gabby pipeto – brian laundrie – concerning a murdered couple , newlyweds in a utah national park.

    • ratneck says

      I grew up in Hampton went to Wade Hampton High School with Alec and John Marvin. This crazy stuff runs deep, all the way back to great grandad Buster. Above the law.

  9. dinamarieburnett says

    Alex Murdaugh from South Carolina was stealing from his law firm. His wife and son were murdered in June. He tried to have an assisted suicide by being shot in the head. He has now resigned from the law firm that his grandfather started in the early 1900’s. New’s is saying he was embezzling and drug addicted. He has entered a rehab for his drug use.

  11. moonshy says

    Robert Durst (The Jinx) is my initial thought but seems like too obvious of an answer. Plus his Susan Berman murder trial just finished and the jury is in deliberations. Maybe next up is charges related to his wife’s “disappearance”?

  12. aaaStorm says

    Alex Murdaugh, the former South Carolina attorney whose life has just turned upside down.

    He clearly had something to do with his wife and son’s murders.

  14. MelisZ says

    This is about the missing woman, Gabby Petitio, whos fiance returned from their national parks tour without her. Another young couple was murdered in the vicinity of where they were when the cops were called over them having a dispute. Same location, same time frame & the fact he’s not cooperating with authorities is making them think her disappearance & these murders are connected.

  15. Northstar says

    Could this be Alex Murdaugh? Questions have come up about the death of his housekeeper a few years back. Maybe it was not an accident and his wife and son found out? Then he had them killed to cover for it? And finally, when his embezzling charge came out, he committed yet another crime in arranging for his own murder for insurance purposes.

  16. marlin ruj says

    This is Brian Laundrie. Missing Gabby. Two women murdered in Moab same time gabby and Brian were there. He killed gabby because she knew he killed the women.

  17. Callie0924 says

    I am thinking that this may be the case regarding the 22yo girl that disappeared and the Boyfriend isn’t talking even though they were driving across country at the time of the disappearance. Gabriel Pettio and Brian Laundry

  18. jeanmarieok says

    Alex Murdaugh – this makes a lot of sense. 3 deaths ( the housekeeper, his wife and son) and one murder for hire.

    • wfreshie says

      his drunken son (him and his mom now dead) was driving the boat that hit the pylon killing a woman that got flung overboard….they are looking at the housekeeper death……and before that there was a local young man found dead in the road cause said hit by car but he had wounds that did not add up……..there will be a movie about this family

  19. CheeseOnToast says

    The Murdaugh family? I think the guys name is Alex?

    His wife & son were shot dead not long ago. A few days ago he says he was shot in a drive-by when he was changing a tyre at the side of the road and suffered a minor head injury – he probably wanted to be killed.

    He is under suspicion for embezzling millions from his employer.

  21. Midsomerfan says

    I am guessing this is the Gabby Petito case.
    The boyfriend killed a newlywed couple and then silenced Gabby the girlfriend to cover it up.
    I fear her remains could be anywhere and will never be found. Here’s hoping I am wrong!

    • gogators says

      Oh my gosh!! Your response totally made me laugh out loud! Poor Michael Jackson: the serial killer we never knew. Thanks for making my day.

  23. Lynnie says

    This may be a bit of a stretch but I have read rumors about a connection between the woman and her wife who were murdered while camping and the girl in the van disappearance. The coincidences between them are uncanny.

  24. missmoneypenny says

    This is Brian Laundrie and his missing gf Gabby Petito. Also that couple that was murdered Crystal Turner and Kylen Schulte.

    He killed the couple and gf found out, or he confessed, she didn’t react as expected, and he killed her too.

  25. QubbuQ says

    Brian Laundrie and his missing gf, Gabrielle Petito. Travelling via van around the US. Maybe he did a hit and run, killing someone, and fled, and she wasn’t down with that- he panicked and killed her too. Sad stuff whatever the case is- whatever the true details emerge to be.

  26. amagod121 says

    Is this about Alex Murdaugh, father of the teen who allegedly plowed his boat into a bridge, killing a girl in the process?

    Alex’s son, Paul, & his wife were both murdered next to the family hunting lodge.

    It’s possible that Alex killed people earlier on – the housekeeper who “fell” down the Murdaugh family’s stairs &/or the male teen who was allegedly involved in a relationship with Alex’s other son, Buster.

    This blind suggests that Alex also killed his son & wife. Man!

  29. RRRRRC says

    The suspect is Brian Laundrie, the victim Gabby Petito.
    In my opinion, he kill the lesbian couple in Moab, Utah, when he and Gabby were separated by the Moab police. Horrible if true.

  30. novadancer says

    Brian Laundrie

    Likely murdered his girlfriend and the double homicide in arches too. Who drives cross country and never reports their girlfriend missing?!

  31. Shameless says

    That bonkers lawyer in South Carolina – alex murdaugh. Killed his wife and son over something. Just hired someone to kill him but he survived the shooting.

  33. gailpow says

    Thinking this is the attorney from South Carolina, Alex Murdaugh, who paid an acquaintance to shot him so the remaining Murdaugh son could inherit $10 millon dollars of life insurance. The elder Murdaugh’s former housekeeper died under mysterious circumstances years ago & authorities are reopening her case. The wife & son of Alex Murdaugh might have known details. It is assumed he might have shot or had someone shoot them dead at their dog kennel-to get rid of witnesses. Great movie potential.

  35. badgerette85 says

    This sounds like the Murdaugh case in SC- but could be of several- living in SC this has been in the headlines continuously since the wife/sons death this summer. I do believe the dad is guilty of major crimes and coverups; even now SLED is suspicious of the housekeepers death a few years ago, which was ruled accidental. Stay tuned…

  43. DenverJayhawk says

    That lawyer dude from the Carolinas whose wife and son died “mysteriously”. Then he was embezzling $$$ at work and lost his law license. Something like that. Too lazy to go re read the article…

  44. Texas Gal says

    Some way, though convoluted, I think this is about Alex Murdaugh?? Paul, his son, earlier charged with a drunken boating accident, and his mother were murdered and then Alex tried to have some other dude shoot him in the head but missed! I just can’t correlate the [dear departed] with the scenario or if Alex actually did the initial boat injury a d that’s why I’m wrong. Sure is a crazy set of circumstances however!!

  45. kvetro60 says

    I think this is Alex Murdaugh. I think he killed the maid and his wife and son knew (or at least one of them did) and so he killed them as well. Hell, he may very well have killed that young man who was killed on a road near their home as well. Whacko family

  46. aaaJan says

    Van Life Couple
    Gabby Petito is missing. Boyfriend, Brian Laundrie, is not talking but returned from their cross-country trip alone. And another couple has been found murdered after telling friends that “some weirdo has set up camp next to us”.

  49. Fanastasia says

    Alex Murdaugh and the murder of his wife and son. They found out he stole money from the law firm and then he hired a hit man to kill him. Bizarre.

  51. Stefanie2530 says

    The awful Alex Murdaugh. Murdered his wife/son Paul. I also believe he planned to use their life ins to pay back the $ he stole from his firm to avoid legal issues. Happy the police are re-opening the housekeeper’s ‘accidental’ slip and fall death in the Murdaugh home. Hope they look into poor Stephen Smith’s death as well.

  56. alphamale says

    Poor Gabby Petito. he wouldn’t even tell her parents when the last time he saw her was. such a shame. lock him up for ever

  57. ItsBouquet says

    Is this the Murdough case maybe? Surviving son, Buster, if the only one in his family that has been left unharmed this whole time, making him a suspect…

    Another guess is that Greek guy that killed his 19 year old wife, Caroline Crouch. He fits the profile of psycho to the T.

  58. travio says

    This is Alex Murdaugh, a South Carolina lawyer. He’s charged with hiring a hitman to kill him so his son could cash in on the life insurance but he survived the hit. His daughter and wife were found dead at their hunting cabin a few weeks before the botched hit. It is a crazy story that is sure to be a movie at some point.

  59. darlacc says

    Alex Murdaugh- Wife Maggie knew about his opioid addiction and stealing money from law firm. Son Paul either walked up on the murder scene and had to be taken out or he was a drain on Dads finances due to his boat accident manslaughter case and Daddy had no money to pay so he took him out. Dad knew the case against son Paul would be dropped after his death. This guy then stages his own murder to give remaining son Buster a 10 million dollar life insurance. This is a crazy case!

  60. Hampton_Mama says

    Alex Murdaugh
    Wife & one son knew he killed the housekeeper. He never paid the family the settlement money they won in court. Begins to stealing money from his law firm. Business partners were onto him, and his family had no clue. Wife begins to ask questions & the son was already in the news for the boating incident which leads to unwanted attention. Hires someone to kill his wife & son, then hired someone to take him out so remaining son gets the insurance money. Wanted death to save him

  61. WillowPotter says

    Robert Durst – I have been following this case for an extremely long time I think twenty years because I was a child (9) the first time I heard about his missing wife and the deaths of at least one or two other people. And him dressing as a woman to disguise himself.

    I think he will get away with it his own family doesn’t want to have anything to do with him the police don’t have enough evidence to convict him he is definitely a sociopath.

  62. beachchick218 says

    Alex Murdaugh. They just opened his housekeeper’s death as a homicide. She died in a mysterious slip and fall in 2018. This Murdaugh family is pure evil.

  64. itsjustanothergirl says

    Brian Laundrie, who’s a person of interest in his missing girlfriend Gabrielle Petito? He won’t talk to police or her family or even say where he left her or why he came home alone… Super fishy IMO.

  66. fanofgossip says

    It is the north carolina attorney. his wife and son were killed. he hired a hitman to kill him but hitman botched the job. now police are investigating the death of his housekeeper. supposedly, his son caused an accident while drunk which led to a death and son got away with it due to his family being a genepool of prominent attorneys. EXCIIIIIIITING!!!! this will make such a good movie.

  68. Gerseychick says

    The rich red-headed, druggie lawyer from South Carolina…Killed his wife & son they knew too much…They lived on a 2 million dollar farm with NO security cameras…Please..He was stealing from the firm….Lots of people died with that family…The cleaning lady, a young gay man, the beautiful young gal on Jr.s boat….This will end up on Dateline, someday….

  71. Jeanesgenes says

    Robert Durst.
    He’s an evil little man and I hope he tells what he did to his wife before he dies in jail.

  72. AHHAof3 says

    Alex Murdaugh. What do I think happened?? I can’t be certain, but I think it all revolves around Alex’s lust for money.

  73. KrazyCatLady says

    I think this is the Murdaugh family in South Carolina. Keeps getting weirder and weirder. So he killed his own wife and kid? What about the older brother? He was supposed to get the $10 million life insurance but Dear old Dad couldn’t even plan his own hit correctly.
    Sounds like the world is better off without them sadly😿
