The son of convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh called law enforcement over the weekend to complain that he was being harassed by national media reporters.
According to a Beaufort County Sheriff’s police report obtained by The Daily Beast, Buster Murdaugh called authorities at around 10 a.m. on Sunday to report that a photo showing him inside his Hilton Head home had appeared in a New York Post article. The article was published just days after his father received two life sentences for the June 2021 murder of his wife, Maggie, and his younger son, Paul.
“Buster said he and his girlfriend [Brooklynn White] reviewed Ring camera video from the residence and observed a suspicious grey Dodge Challenger outside the residence on Saturday evening,” the police report states. “Buster believes the occupant of this vehicle took the photo, judging by Buster’s position in the residence when the photo was captured. No other identifiable vehicle or suspect information was noted.”
