The Ongoing Saga: Alex Murdaugh Confesses to Hiring a Hitman for ‘Suicide’

The Murdaugh family from South Carolina finds itself in disarray. More than three months have passed since Margaret “Maggie” Murdaugh, 52, and her son, Paul Murdaugh, 22, were brutally murdered outside their hunting lodge. Following their deaths, the investigation stalled, and the family patriarch, Randolph Murdaugh III, passed away shortly after. The chosen successor for the 14th district solicitor, Duffie Stone, unexpectedly recused himself from the case. Adding to the chaos, an investigation into the mysterious death of a maid, Gloria Satterfield, was reopened, as it reportedly had connections to the Murdaugh family.

Just when it seemed the situation couldn’t get any worse, more shocking revelations surfaced.

Imagine a man of privilege, perpetually sunburned, perhaps from hard liquor or the Southern sun. His family held the solicitor position for South Carolina’s 14th District from 1920 until 2006. He owns a sprawling 1,770-acre estate that includes a “hunting lodge” known as Moselle. His deceased son faced charges in a felony boating incident that resulted in a young woman’s death. This is Alex Murdaugh, who found his family members dead and vehemently insisted during a 911 call that his hunting lodge was not a trailer: “It’s a house!” On September 3rd, he was confronted by his law partners regarding embezzling millions and resigned from his firm.

The very next day, Murdaugh was shot in the head.

Into the Abyss

Through his legal representatives, Murdaugh claimed he had a tire blowout while driving his Mercedes on Salkehatchie Road. When he exited his car to make repairs, a pickup truck passed by, returned, and inquired if he needed assistance. Suddenly, he heard a gunshot.

Good Samaritans discovered him bleeding on the road, and he called 911 from their vehicle. He was airlifted to a Savannah hospital, where he was diagnosed with a skull fracture and minor brain bleeding. After two days, he was released and entered rehab for an alleged oxycodone addiction.

The state of South Carolina suspended his law license. Murdaugh’s attorney, Jim Griffin, maintained that his injuries were not self-inflicted. No weapon was found at the scene, though his tire was reported as “slashed.”

As Maya Angelou eloquently noted, “There’s a world of difference between truth and facts.”

A Series of Unfortunate Events

On September 14th, it was revealed that Murdaugh was in a state of deep despair and hired Curtis Edward Smith, 61, from Walterboro, SC, to kill him, believing it would allow his surviving son, Richard “Buster” Murdaugh, to collect a $10 million life insurance policy, thinking it lacked a suicide exclusion. Smith, however, failed to complete the task effectively, discharging multiple rounds without fatally injuring Murdaugh. Smith later claimed to have disposed of the firearm.

Murdaugh confessed to authorities on Tuesday night, the reasons for which remain unclear. He retained the same attorney who defended his son in the boating accident case. Smith now faces charges including “assisted suicide” and “insurance fraud,” and is being held at the Colleton County Detention Center.

In a bizarre twist, Smith also faces separate drug charges unrelated to Murdaugh.

Murdaugh’s attorney appeared on The Today Show, suggesting that the shooting was a desperate attempt to protect his child. The family’s representatives stated that Murdaugh’s addiction to opioids was exploited by those around him.

The Maid’s Mysterious Death

Gloria Satterfield, 57, died in what was initially categorized as a “trip and fall” accident in September 2018. Murdaugh’s insurance paid out $500,000 for wrongful death claims, but the coroner, Angela Topper, has since raised concerns about the circumstances of her death, stating it was never reported to her office. Satterfield’s sons are now pursuing legal action, having never received the settlement money.

Murdaugh appears to have developed a penchant for insurance payouts in addition to his alleged embezzlement activities. He is expected to surrender to authorities soon.
