Alex Murdaugh’s surviving son filed a defamation lawsuit Monday against Netflix and others who produced documentaries and news articles that insinuated he was involved in the 2015 murder of his classmate—a legal maneuver one lawyer involved told The Daily Beast is sure to “backfire.”
The lawsuit comes more than a year after Alex Murdaugh was convicted of murdering his wife and son in a dizzying trial that garnered international attention.
Since that conviction, Buster Murdaugh, 30, has himself been at the center of a separate murder mystery involving the killing of his 19-year-old former classmate, Stephen Smith, in 2015.
