Alex Murdaugh's remaining assets will be distributed to multiple claimants, including the family of the late Mallory Beach, who died in a crash aboard the Murdaugh family's boat in 2019.
"Of course, the Special Referee is mindful of the amount and degree of hurt and devastation caused by the actions of Alex Murdaugh to the Claimants in this matter, and beyond. In a perfect world, there would be unlimited funds," Tollison wrote. "There was a finite amount of money." "Fair, just and equitable? I don’t think so."
