Convicted killer and disgraced legal dynasty heir Alex Murdaugh appeared in federal court today where he pleaded guilty to a string of financial fraud charges – admitting that he stole millions of dollars from law firm clients for his own personal benefit.
The double murderer stood before US District Judge Richard Gergel at the J. Waties Waring Judicial Center in Charleston on Thursday morning where he waived his right to a jury trial and confirmed his wish to change his plea to guilty.
