Alex Murdaugh's Prison Privileges Revoked for Unauthorized Documentary Participation

Convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh has had his phone privileges and prison tablet revoked after his lawyer recorded him reading journal entries for a documentary about his case. The South Carolina Corrections Department stated that inmates are not allowed to speak to the media without permission to protect crime victims from seeing or hearing their perpetrators in the news. The violations are considered prison discipline issues and not criminal offenses. Murdaugh, who is serving a life sentence for killing his wife and son, is expected to plead guilty to charges of stealing millions from clients.
