South Carolina legal heir Alex Murdaugh will be charged with the 2021 murders of his wife and son this week.
The family has been notified that Murdaugh, 63, will be charged this week. A grand jury will be shown evidence on Thursday.
It’s unclear what that evidence is.
Maggie and Paul Murdaugh were found dead in their family home last summer in a mystifying crime that was the beginning of a long, legal saga for the rich South Carolina family.
Since then, Alex has been charged with trying to commit life insurance scams and questions have arisen over the family’s dark past.
Maggie, 52, and Paul, 22, were found shot dead on the grounds of the family home on June 7.
Alex called 911, claiming through tears and screams that he’d just returned home to find them there.
