What is the Plotline of Murdaugh Murders: A Southern Scandal?
The following are the details of the three-part series, as provided in the description of the trailer released earlier this week by Netflix:
“The Murdaughs were one of South Carolina’s most prominent families, but the death of teenager Mallory Beach in a drunken boating accident began the unraveling of their legacy. When Paul Murdaugh – the alleged driver of the boat – and his mother Maggie are found brutally murdered, a century of corruption, power, and cover-ups in the Low Country is brought to light.”
Because this is a documentary series, Netflix promises “first-hand accounts from those on the boat that fateful night, many of whom have not spoken about the crash or double homicide of Maggie and Paul until now.”
The story of the Murdaugh family is coming to Netflix in February.
