Former South Carolina attorney Alex Murdaugh reveals alibi in court filing, says he wasn’t home during murders

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Alex Murdaugh’s attorneys say he wasn’t home when his wife and son were shot and killed on the night of June 7, 2021.

The revelation comes from a notice of alibi defense filed Thursday in Colleton County, where the once-prominent South Carolina attorney is facing charges in the murders of his wife, Maggie, and son Paul.

Murdaugh is being tried in the killings, committed with two different guns, which took place on the family’s sprawling hunting estate, Moselle.
