Alex Murdaugh charged with hiding another $2 million in stolen income, Attorney General says

Convicted double murderer Alex Murdaugh has been charged with failing to pay $132,572 in taxes on the millions of dollars that he is accused of stealing.

It marks the second time in less than a year that the former attorney has been charged with tax crimes for failing to report, or pay taxes on, the millions he allegedly pilfered from his clients and the law firm his family founded over 100 years ago.

An indictment, filed Thursday in Hampton County, accuses Murdaugh of failing to pay taxes on more than $2 million in income earned through “illegal acts,” according to a statement released from the state Attorney General’s Office. In total, Murdaugh has now been charged with failing to pay $619,391 in state tax on a total of $9,067,706 in illegally obtained income.
