Murdaugh: Death in the Family is a shocking story inspired by real-life events. It’s the story of high-powered attorney Alex Murdaugh, who seems to be living a charmed life – but then his son is involved in a deadly boat crash that sets off a chain of more terrible events.

The show is based on the hit podcast, Murdaugh Murders, and it’s a lightly fictionalized version with a stellar cast in a tale of privilege, power and consequences.
