This movie takes the story from an interesting perspective, but they play around with the facts. One example is that they present that the fictional reporter had access to various cell phone information and presented it to Alex on her own. If I understand it correctly from the trial, the info that she presents should have come through legal hands and not the internet as she said. The video that Paul took at the kennels is one example. That video never made it out of Paul's phone, until it was discovered by police computer forensic experts a year after the murders.
Just don't take this as factual. If you want the deep and dirty facts from a true journalist who was on Alex's trail before the murders, listen to "The Murdaugh Murders Podcast". That research is in depth and very well validated.
