Just for you—Murdaugh update.

His law license has been suspended.

And…According to Fitsnews, the knife that slashed his tire has been traced back to him:

Multiple sources familiar with the investigation into a bizarre Labor Day weekend shooting involving prominent South Carolina attorney R. Alexander “Alex” Murdaugh on Saturday have confirmed to this news outlet that the knife used to puncture a run-flat tire on his Mercedes-Benz sport utility has been recovered.

Ready for the kicker?

According to these sources, the knife in question has been linked to Alex Murdaugh - who was shot while ostensibly “inspecting” a flat tire on the side of a rural Hampton county road on the afternoon of Saturday, September 7, 2021.

Fitsnews can be a wild and wacky site, but over the years, they’ve proven to have some pretty good sources.

Riiiiight….
So they found the knife:
It had traces of matching Mercedes rubber on the blade: it had Murdaugh’s fingerprints on it, the initials “AM” inscribed on the hilt, and a receipt from the knife shop in the glove box.
Local authorities express bafflement, and promise to keep investigating.
