South Carolina prosecutors for the first time are sharing their theory of motive for why they believe jailed and disbarred former attorney Alex Murdaugh likely murdered his wife and son the night of June 7, 2021.
In a stunning filing Thursday morning, the S.C. Attorney General's office says Murdaugh's motive for allegedly killing his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, was to cause a distraction so Murdaugh could avoid imminent discovery of his multi-million dollar financial fraud schemes.
Lead prosecutor Creighton Waters goes on to explain Murdaugh hoped to use the sympathy gained from his wife and son's grisly and bizarre deaths to buy himself time to cover up evidence of his fraud, theft, embezzlement and money laundering believed to date back 15 years.
