A full-time homemaker, she was described as an adoring mother to her two sons. Buster testified in his father's defence, describing Mr Murdaugh as a loving presence who was "destroyed" by the murders of Maggie and Paul.

What does Alex Murdaugh's murder conviction mean for the family ... (Daily Mail)

Buster Murdaugh, 26, is the only surviving son of Alex and Maggie Murdaugh after his brother Paul and mom were brutally murdered in June 2021.

Prosecutor John Meadors asked gentle questions of Buster Murdaugh in his cross examination, clarifying and emphasizing a few discrepancies in the testimony. Her cause of death was blunt force trauma and drowning. Neither gun used in the killings has been found. At the time of Maggie's death Moselle was no longer a home for her, it was an asset. 'He has put his desire to go to law school on hold for now,' the Murdaugh's lawyer told The Post and Courier. Investigators have suggested he parked behind the house to get rid of evidence that has never been found, like both guns or bloody clothing. Murdaugh's brother John Marvin and surviving son Buster sat behind him in the courtroom every day. Her body was found five days later. Prosecutors have suggested Alex Murdaugh left the device behind so it wouldn't be where the killings took place. He has really closed off and built walls around himself,' the friend added. He was heartbroken. It is unknown if the college graduate is working at this time or receiving any kind of income.
