South Carolina Law Enforcement Division investigating the deaths of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh

On June 7, 2021, Maggie and Paul Murdaugh were found dead on their over 1700 acre property in Colleton County, SC. Maggie’s cell phone was found outside of the property.

The Murdaugh family has offered a $100,000 reward to the public for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh.

The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) released heavily redacted information from part of their investigation. It is common for law enforcement – working in a good faith effort – to not release information during an ongoing investigation. No one has been named as a person of interest. No arrests have been made. Law Enforcement officials are working hard to to diligently and carefully investigate the case and this can take time. This case has many moving parts and Williams expects investigators to stay “tight lipped,” which is normal during an ongoing, complex investigation.

The investigators in the double murders of Paul and Maggie Murdaugh have not released much information about this case due to it’s ongoing investigation.

Gloria Satterfield died in 2018 as a result of a trip and fall. No arrests were made. This was not a criminal case; this was a civil case. A court document- that is public record – shows the civil case was settled for $500,000.

In 2019, Paul Murdaugh was accused of, but was never found guilty of- felony boating under the influence resulting in death. Mallory Beach’s body was found dead on March 3, 2019.
