Defending Alex Murdaugh by James Seidel
James Seidel Launches Audiobook Version of Defending Alex Murdaugh on Amazon and Audible
The true crime journalist and founder of CC News Network offers a gripping new way to experience the case that shook the South
By CC News Network Staff
CHARLESTON, S.C. – James Seidel, the acclaimed investigative journalist behind Crime and Cask and CC News Network, has officially released the audiobook version of his best-selling book Defending Alex Murdaugh: Not Guilty by Reasonable Doubt. The audiobook is now available on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3DXuShF
It’s also available on Audible.com
The book provides an in-depth analysis of one of the most polarizing murder trials in South Carolina history—the double homicide of Paul and Maggie Murdaugh. While the public narrative painted Alex Murdaugh as a disgraced attorney turned killer, Seidel’s investigation offers a different perspective—one that challenges the prosecution’s timeline, examines the evidence piece by piece, and presents real-world experiments conducted at the Murdaugh Moselle property.
James Seidel: The Multi-Talented Force Behind CC News Network
James Seidel has rapidly become one of the most influential investigative journalists in the true crime world. As the founder of CC News Network, the host of Crime and Cask, a best-selling author, and a radio talk show host, Seidel is reshaping investigative journalism with fact-based, hard-hitting reporting that reaches millions.
Often compared to Ted Turner for his disruptive approach to independent media, Seidel has built one of the fastest-growing news platforms in the Southeast. His role in breaking major crime stories—including the Murdaugh murders, the death of Stephen Smith, and the case of Kaden Moses—has earned him national recognition and an ever-growing audience.
Now Investigating the Murder of Quinton Banks at SLED’s Request
Seidel recently announced he is launching an independent investigation into the unsolved shooting of Quinton Banks in Denmark, South Carolina. The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) has requested the public’s help, and Seidel has filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to obtain all publicly available information to aid in solving the case. Known for exposing flaws in official investigations, Seidel’s involvement is already generating renewed public interest.
