The Murdaugh Murder Trial: Ethical Violations that Led to Murder

Course Description
The story of the Alex Murdaugh Murder Trial is a story of substance abuse, disregard for lawyer ethics, and murder. And yes, the three are related. From small town USA, the Murdaugh family has controlled the law in Hampton County for almost 100 years. Corners were cut. Misdeeds ignored. Could this include murder? A jury, after hearing about Alex Murdaugh’s ethical violations and the facts surrounding the murder of his wife and son, convicted him of first-degree murder in less than 3 hours. This amazing story, that grabbed America’s attention like no other recent case save People v. OJ, is a cautionary tale about the dangerous lures of power, greed and substance abuse in the practice of law.
