Alex Murdaugh Sentenced For Murders Of Wife And Son
Summary by NewsWall Mar 03 23
- On Thursday, a jury rendered a decision in the case of Alex Murdaugh, a prominent South Carolina lawyer accused of murdering his wife and son.
- Prosecutors claimed Mr. Murdaugh committed the murders to divert attention away from his own financial irregularities, which they claimed were about to be revealed.
- Buster Murdaugh, Alex Murdaugh's surviving son, testified that his father was "devastated" and "heartbroken" after the killings.
- He also claimed that when he called his father about 20 minutes after the murders, Alex Murdaugh sounded "normal" — despite the fact that Mr. Murdaugh's lawyers claim he had yet to discover the bodies of his wife and son.
