What is Murdaugh Murders All About?

In South Carolina’s Lowcountry, the Murdaugh family dynasty started to fall apart after a series of events over the course of six years led to the deaths of five people: Mallory Beach, a friend of Alex’s youngest son, Stephen Smith, a friend of Alex’s oldest son, Gloria Satterfield, Alex’s housekeeper, Paul Murdaugh, Alex’s youngest son, Maggie Murdaugh, Alex’s wife, and an alleged attempt on Alex’s life.

A lot of the evidence suggests that one man was either involved in the deaths or in trying to hide them. Murdaugh Murders: A Southern Scandal tells the story of the Murdaugh family’s rise to power and influence with law enforcement, as well as the strange deaths that have ruined their family’s reputation and destroyed their legacy.
