Get ready for a family with very high numbers- both in alleged crimes and dollars in the bank! It’s the first of what we hope will be many Dateline episodes on the saga of the Murdaugh family! A double murder in a prominent  South Carolina law family reveals *secrets* from the past, including mysterious accidents, more deaths, and even attempted murder for hire gone wrong! It’s Faulkner, Shakespeare, Grisham, and possibly many more authors. Kimberly and Katie have a lot to keep up with starting with the very pronunciation of the main character’s name all the way to the approximately 273 lawyers involved. It’s got boats, life insurance, a voracious online rumor mill and a totally appropriate number of Arrested Development references from K & K. But is it MURDER-DAUGH most foul or just a lot of alleged bad luck? You be the judge in this very special coverage by A Date with Dateline: Laws of Life Edition.
Official Description from NBCU: Family members of a housekeeper employed by Alex Murdaugh speak out for the first time about her death. Craig Melvin reports on the mysteries surrounding the powerful Murdaugh family of South Carolina.
