6 Nov
Summary
- Murdaugh's lawyers say Hulu series contains "numerous inaccuracies"
- Depiction of Murdaugh's relationships with family is "particularly troubling"
- Hulu did not reach out to Murdaugh or his family to verify facts
As the Hulu true crime series "Murdaugh: Death in the Family" approaches its November 19th finale, the disgraced patriarch at the center of the story has spoken out against the show's depiction of his life. According to Alex Murdaugh's legal team, the series contains "numerous inaccuracies and misleading portrayals that distort the truth" about the Murdaugh family.
The lawyers say the show's portrayal of Murdaugh's personal relationships is "particularly troubling," as it "totally mischaracterizes" his bonds with his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, both of whom he "loves so dearly." They also accuse the show's writers of failing to reach out to Murdaugh, his family, or his attorneys during the development process to "hear their perspective or verify the facts."
