Alex Murdaugh, who is currently serving life in prison for killing his wife and son, has settled the wrongful death civil suit that prosecutors alleged first motivated the murders.
Court records confirmed that a civil case against Murdaugh ended on October 10. The judge ended the case after Murdaugh’s insurer, Progressive, paid out $500,000 to the family of Mallory Beach, who was killed while boating with Murdaugh’s son, who was allegedly drunk behind the wheel.
