Alex Murdaugh prison selfies are making their way around the internet and viewers are shocked.
You know the story. Successful lawyer serves time for the murder of his wife and son after accused of embezzlement from his law firm. Why would he kill his family? Well, that's not been determined, but it speculation is that he wants people to feel sorry for him. Murdaugh has been found guilty of shooting his wife Maggie and son Paul and staging the murder to look like an outsider did it. He was close with law enforcement and held a lot of clout in his small South Carolina hometown. They listened to him. They trusted him. But he betrayed it all when he pulled the trigger.
Alex Murdaugh may have been a good lawyer. He was not a good criminal.
The case swept the nation. The story was covered on news outlets, podcasts, and even docudramas. But the story didn't end once Alex Murdaugh was put behind bars. Because suddenly there are photos of the shamed lawyer circulating on the internet. The photos were taken in the McCormick Correctional Institution where Murdaugh is living out his two life sentences. And he looks oddly comfortable.
The photos, which appear to be Alex Murdaugh prison selfies, have created a lot of conversation and questions. Why is he taking selfies? How did he get a camera/phone/tablet to take said selfies? Who is releasing them? Is it really Alex Murdaugh.
According to South Carolina's News 19, it is, indeed, Alex Murdaugh. The device used to take the photos is a tablet he has access to in prison.
The SCDC tells News 19 that every inmate is issued a tablet, which they can use to make monitored telephone calls, take classes, read books, subscribe to entertainment that is pre-approved and receive messages from the institution.
The South Carolina Department of Corrections reports the devices are not connected to the internet or social media, but they do take and save a selfie every time an image logs in. It connects using facial recognition, just like an iPhone does. So, who is leaking the photos? We're not sure why they're posted, but, according to News 19, they were released
After a Freedom of Information Act request was filed, which provides the public the right to request access to federal agency records.

Will Alex Murdaugh find love again after enough people view the photos? Not likely. But stranger things have happened.
The Murdaugh Murders
The Murdaugh murders captured the attention of the nation because of the unusual details and questions surrounding the case.
On June 7, 2021, Alex Murdaugh, a prominent South Carolina lawyer, called 911 to report that his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, had been shot to death at their family's hunting estate. Murdaugh was the only suspect in the case for several months, but in July 2022, he was indicted on two counts of murder.
The prosecution alleged that Murdaugh killed his wife and son in a failed attempt to conceal his own financial crimes. Murdaugh had been accused of embezzlement and other financial misdeeds, and the prosecution argued that he killed his family in order to gain sympathy and divert attention from his own problems.
Murdaugh's defense team argued that he was innocent and that the prosecution's case was circumstantial. However, the jury found Murdaugh guilty of murder in March 2023, and he was sentenced to life in prison.
