A new twist came to light in the saga surrounding prominent South Carolina lawyer Alex Murdaugh after the family of his former housekeeper sued him
Coroner Angie Topper noted that "the manner of death was ruled 'natural,' which is inconsistent with injuries sustained in a trip and fall accident." Satterfield, of Furman, South Carolina, was the Murdaugh family housekeeper for over two decades before her death,Along with the investigation, a new lawsuit was also filed in Satterfield's death.
The suit states that, following Satterfield's death on Feb. 26, Murdaugh acknowledged that he was at fault and introduced her family to his "good friend, Corey Fleming, so that Fleming could assist the sons in filing legal claims against Murdaugh for the wrongful death of their mother, with the assistance of a banker friend, Chad Westendorf."
The Satterfield heirs say they are seeking their rightful settlement, along with any associated damages or costs.Murdaugh's legal and potential criminal troubles extend well past the death of his housekeeper. Murdaugh was listed as a co-defendant as the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division announced charges Monday against Curtis Edward Smith, 61, who faces counts of assisted suicide, assault and battery of a high aggravated nature, pointing and presenting a firearm, insurance fraud, and conspiracy to commit insurance fraud.
