Murdaugh Murder Home In South Carolina To Be Auctioned Off Again
It was perhaps one of the most notorious true crime stories in recent time. Of course, I am referring to the Murdaugh family real life tragedy. And now, the Murdaugh murder Moselle home in South Carolina is set to be auctioned off. According to NEWS 19, bidding starts at just over $1 million for the Moselle Estate house along with 21 acres of land.
And, for those of you with some extra cash lying around the date for the auction is February 15 with bids being accepted through 2 p.m. that day. Also, the estate sold once already back in March for $2.6 million. And, the contents of the house also sold as well.
As a bit of a true crime buff, I followed the case from the beginning. Everything about the family drama from start to finish is so tragic. However, the case captivated the nation. And subsequently, any tidbit related to the story in any way grabs our attention. So, that also includes the Murdaugh murder Moselle home in South Carolina where the infamous kennels are located being auctioned off.
Of course, Alex Murdaugh was convicted of the June 2021 murders of his wife Maggie and their youngest son Paul. And, the murders actually took place at the kennels on the Colleton County property that is now up for auction again. So, the listing describes the home as 5,275 square feet with 4 and a half baths, two porches and a chef’s kitchen. And, showings require pre-approval. I suppose that weeds out curious tourists with no genuine interest in purchasing the property.
And, as you remember Alex Murdaugh now serves 2 consecutive life sentences for the murders. Furthermore, the complicated alleged financial crimes potentially carry additional time. However, there’s a hearing scheduled near the end of January to consider Murdaugh’s request for a new trial. The defense team claims jury tampering in the first trial.
But, we’ll follow what becomes of the Murdaugh murder Moselle home as it goes up for auction again. And, for more on the initial sale of the property and the upcoming auction, see the full story.
