Quick case catch-up: Alex Murdaugh, a disgraced South Carolina attorney, is currently on trial for the murders of his wife, Maggie, and youngest son, Paul. His eldest son, Buster, has been to court every day since trial started.
Last week, Netflix released its latest docuseries called “Murdaugh Murders: A Southern Scandal.” The streaming service says the docuseries “shows how the prominent Murdaugh family purportedly used and abused their wealth and privilege to the extreme, and which family member is allegedly behind it all.”
The series has three episodes titled, “Where Is Mallory?,” “Murders at Moselle” and “No Secrets Are Safe.” It dives deep into the many twists and turns the Murdaugh family has experienced, including the deadly boat crash that killed Mallory Beach, the murders of Maggie and Paul, the death of the family’s nanny Gloria Satterfield and the hit-and-run death of Stephen Smith, an alleged friend of Buster Murdaugh.
The following allegations and statements were uncovered in the docuseries:
