Murdaugh Family

The eldest Murdaugh son supported his father, Alex Murdaugh, who was convicted for murdering Maggie and Paul Murdaugh.

The disgraced South Carolina attorney is already serving life behind bars for the 2021 shooting deaths of his wife and son. 

The disbarred South Carolina attorney convicted of murdering his wife and son is now accused of lying about millions of missing dollars.

“She loved Maggie and Alex and Paul and Buster just awfully,” said Tony Satterfield, a son of late Murdaugh family housekeeper Gloria Satterfield. “She loved what she did, her job."

"I'm not crying because of what you stole from me — I'm crying for what he did to everybody," Jordan Jinks, a friend and former client of Murdaugh's said Tuesday. 

Judge Clifton Newman has asked that a new judge preside over all future hearings involving Alex Murdaugh's request for a new murder trial.

“Only Alex Murdaugh could conceive of such a confounded gambit as even remotely possible,” the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office wrote in court papers in response to Alex Murdaugh’s lawyers’ accusations of jury tampering in their push for a retrial.  

Attorneys for Murdaugh have also asked the South Carolina supreme court to remove Judge Clifton Newman from the case, saying it would be a conflict of interest. 

“We intend to proceed expeditiously and will seek a full blown evidentiary hearing,” Alex Murdaugh’s lawyers, Jim Griffin and Dick Harpootlian, wrote in a statement.  

Kenneth Kinsey spoke at CrimeCon 2023 about evidence that countered the argument laid out by Alex Murdaugh's defense team.
