Law&Crime Network published this video item, entitled “WATCH LIVE: ‘Doomsday Cult’ Prophet Murder Trial — ID v. Chad Daybell – Hearing” – below is their description.
Convicted family killer and disgraced attorney Alex Murdaugh will be sentenced Tuesday for the millions-of-dollars scheme he plotted to steal from 18 of his former clients. Murdaugh was originally charged with 101 financial crimes, but under a plea deal, the charges were dropped down to 22 crimes. It’s estimated that Murdaugh stole more than $8 million from clients — many who are disabled. A jury found Murdaugh guilty of murdering his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, earlier this year.

Alex Murdaugh is a lawyer from Hampton County, South Carolina, who stands accused of many crimes, relating to financial irregularities, as well as involvement in the death of his wife and son.
On September 4 2021, Murdaugh was shot in the head on Salkehatchie Rd, on his way to Charleston SC.
Shortly afterwards, Murdaugh entered rehab, with a statement which said:
“The murders of my wife and son have caused an incredibly difficult time in my life.”
“I have made a lot of decisions that I truly regret. I’m resigning from my law firm and entering rehab after a long battle that has been exacerbated by these murders.”
It subsequently became apparent that, one day prior to his shooting, he had been ejected from his law firm, after money was apparently missing.
He was arrested and charged with multiple offences, including suspicion of having organised his own shooting, in an apparent insurance fraud scheme, in order that his son could inherit a large quantity of money.
The many charges against Murdaugh are proceeding through the courts – with over 50 currently lodged.

Murder is the unlawful killing of another human without justification or valid excuse, especially the unlawful killing of another human with malice aforethought. This state of mind may, depending upon the jurisdiction, distinguish murder from other forms of unlawful homicide, such as manslaughter.
