A judge handed down a sentence to a former Lowcountry attorney who pleaded guilty in May after being accused of conspiring with Alex Murdaugh to take money from the estate of Murdaugh’s former housekeeper.
Palmetto State Bank, named in a federal lawsuit centered around millions of dollars Alex Murdaugh is accused of stealing from clients, is asking a court to protect them from questioning they deem unreasonable.
After admitting to stealing millions in settlement money from his former housekeeper’s family, convicted killer Alex Murdaugh is now looking to rescind a different admission: that he lied about the circumstances surrounding his housekeeper’s fatal fall.
Attorneys representing the family of Alex Murdaugh’s former housekeeper are expected to provide details about an ongoing lawsuit against Murdaugh and the settlement their clients never received.
Eric Bland and Ronnie Richter, the attorneys representing the family of Gloria Satterfield, held a press conference on Monday morning to address new claims from Alex Murdaugh.
Alex Murdaugh responded to a 2022 complaint filed by Nautilus Insurance Company alleging that Murdaugh lied about details surrounding his former housekeeper’s death in 2018.
Gloria Satterfield’s family attorney Eric Bland says these indictments don’t come as a surprise but are still a shock as it’s such a big decision in the case against Murdaugh.
