as a former profiler, how do you assess murdaugh?e's a number of things we have to look at, and i think the first thing we can say is that the fact that the bodies were actually found outside of the house tells me something, that the killer had a proprietary interest in the house. anybody who would break into a house to kill somebody would kill them right there, but somebody who owned the house or didn't want to get blood all over the house might do it outside or at least bring the bodies outside, so it was always strange that the bodies were found outside where more people had the opportunity to hear the shots or actually see the bodies or the killing happen. so that actually tells me that there is probably a high likelihood that whoever killed the mom and son was somebody who had a proprietary interest in that house. but this guy was clearly into a lot of very bad things, and i think it all came to a head. >> so let's talk more about that. obviously once a very prominent lawyer, you know, from the outside before we knew all these s
