A South Carolina judge said Monday that she would decide at a later date whether to reduce a $7 million bond for Alex Murdaugh, the disgraced attorney accused of stealing $6.2 million from several former clients, including a highway patrolman, a quadriplegic man, and the sons of his late housekeeper.
One of Murdaugh's alleged victims, South Carolina Highway Patrolman Thomas Moore, said that Murdaugh was "always very nice" to him after he suffered a devastating neck injury while in the line of duty, but claims the attorney conned him out of $125,000 in settlement funds.
"Here's the problem. He treated me that nice and he stole every dime I had from the injury that occurred," Moore told the judge on Monday.
Murdaugh's legal troubles began in June after his youngest son and wife were found shot to death on the family's Colleton County estate.
