Originally scheduled to last just three weeks, dawn broke today on the fifth week of disbarred South Carolina attorney Alex Murdaugh’s double homicide trial in Walterboro, S.C. – with the defense having only begun to make its case.

Murdaugh is the scion of an influential Lowcountry legal dynasty – a man who once led the Palmetto State’s powerful trial lawyers’ association. Today, he sits at the epicenter of a maze of alleged criminality known as the ‘Murdaugh Murders’ crime and corruption saga.

Last week, prosecutors in the office of attorney general Alan Wilson rested their case against the 54-year-old former attorney in dramatic fashion – providing jurors with a detailed timeline pulling together many of the loose ends in their case.

Murdaugh stands accused of killing his wife, 52-year-old Maggie Murdaugh, and youngest son, 22-year-old Paul Murdaugh, on his family’s hunting property in Colleton County, S.C. on June 7, 2021. He pleaded not guilty to those charges and is currently standing trial in Walterboro – a town located in the low country region of the Palmetto State, which Murdaugh’s family ran like a fiefdom for more than a century.
