There are a lot of true crime fans out there. So, when Netflix proposes a series about corruption, cover-ups, and communities being torn apart, it usually does very well. This explains why Murdaugh Murders: A Southern Scandal: Limited Series landed on Netflix with a boom two weeks ago. It is holding on to the #5 spot on the TV (English) Chart. That makes it the number one documentary across the entire streamer.
Netflix Synopsis for Murdaugh Murders: A Southern Scandal: Limited Series
The Murdaughs were one of South Carolina’s most prominent families, but the death of teenager Mallory Beach in a drunken boating accident began the unraveling of their legacy. When Paul Murdaugh – the alleged driver of the boat – and his mother Maggie are found brutally murdered, a century of corruption, power, and cover-ups in the Low Country is brought to light. The three-part series will feature first-hand accounts from those on the boat that fateful night, many of whom have not spoken about the crash or double homicide of Maggie and Paul until now, including Paul Murdaugh’s longtime girlfriend, Morgan Doughty; Mallory Beach’s childhood friends, Miley Altman and Connor Cook; Mallory’s boyfriend, Anthony Cook; and, several others.
