Fox News
South Carolina lawyer Alex Murdaugh, who found his wife and younger son murdered in June, resigned from the family law firm earlier this week following accusations of misappropriating funds and getting shot in the head.
"I was shocked, just as the rest of my PMPED family, to learn of my brother, Alex’s, drug addiction and stealing of money," the statement said. "I love my law firm family and also love Alex as my brother. While I will support him in his recovery, I do not support, condone, or excuse his conduct in stealing by manipulating his most trusted relationships. I will continue to pursue my client’s interests with the highest degree of honesty and integrity, as I always have." The Murdaugh family has been cast in the national spotlight since Alex Murdaugh found his wife, Maggie Murdaugh, 52, and their 22-year-old son, Paul Murdaugh, both shot several times at their Colleton County home on June 7.More Related News
