The Murdaugh Murders

The Murdaughs were one of South Carolina's most prominent legal families for nearly a century. They were so influential in the area, that locals nicknamed the county they practised in ‘Murdaugh country.’ 
But in 2019 a fatal boating accident put the family under a microscope, and what was uncovered about the Murdaughs over the next four years is almost too shocking to believe.
This story is complicated. You’re about to hear about the deaths of five people in South Carolina, all with ties to the Murdough family.
