(COLUMBIA, S.C.) – South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson made the following statement after Justice Jean Toal upheld Alex Murdaugh’s murder convictions:
“As with all cases, the Attorney General’s Office and SLED's only mission is to seek the truth and deliver justice, wherever the facts lead. It does not matter your name, position, or status, no one is above the law. We take very seriously the allegations in this situation and immediately requested an investigation, committed to discovering the truth, regardless of what it might find. After that thorough investigation, and a fair public hearing, it is clear that Alex Murdaugh’s convictions for the murders of Maggie and Paul are based solely upon the facts and evidence of the case. It is time to move on and forward.”
