Alex Murdaugh, disgraced Southern lawyer, was recently convicted of murdering his wife and youngest son in cold blood. How does anyone become a family annihilator? Especially someone who on the surface appears to be a down-to-earth, accomplished person who in his career seemingly offered help to many people in need? In this first episode in a series of two, you will get to know the grim history behind the man that held great power - and how he used that power for great evil. Alex came from a long bloodline of powerful lawyers, and the footsteps that came before Alex did not always walk a straight path. Alex also had a drug problem he kept secret. And yes, he would offer to help people in need, but then he stole from them as soon as the opportunity arose. He would even use his power to go to great lengths to cover up the crimes of those he loved - but it would soon become apparent that absolutely nothing in the world was off limits to Alex Murdaugh in his pursuit of the dollar. His loved ones included.
