Former attorney Alex Murdaugh is set to be sentenced in federal court for financial crimes on Monday, adding to his existing life sentence without parole for the murders of his wife and son. Federal agents have recommended a prison term of 17 to 22 years for the disbarred lawyer, who had a prominent legal career in South Carolina before his downfall.
Murdaugh, who was once involved in negotiating significant settlements, now faces the consequences of his fraudulent activities, which include stealing millions from clients. Prosecutors have described him as a prolific fraudster who deceived those around him for years, leading to devastating consequences.
