EDISTO BEACH HOUSE & BOTCHED MURDAUGH SUICIDE SPOT Mar 28, 2023

We take you to the exact spot on the rural road in South Carolina -- nearby Alex Murdaugh's 1,700-acre hunting lodge called Moselle -- where he staged a fake car breakdown on Sept. 4, 2021 -- nearly three months after the murders of his wife and son -- and reported being shot in the head. Alex called 911, claiming he had been shot, had a superficial wound, and needed medical aid. Later, Murdaugh's distant cousin and former client, Curtis Edward Smith, 61, "Cousin Eddie," reported that Alex allegedly confessed the murders to him. Murdaugh's attorneys said that wasn't true and that Alex had wanted to end his life. So he had Curtis meet him on the rural road to shoot him in a botched suicide-for-hire attempt so that Murdaugh's son, Buster, 26, could collect on a $10 million life insurance policy.
