WALTERBORO, S.C. (WCSC) - Authorities are evacuating the Colleton County Courthouse where disbarred Lowcountry attorney Alex Murdaugh is standing trial on two charges of murder.
Murdaugh defense attorney Jim Griffin confirmed shortly before 1 p.m. that the reason for the evacuation was a bomb threat. The evacuation began shortly before 12:30 p.m.
South Carolina Law Enforcement Division spokesperson Renée Wunderlich said courthouse personnel received the bomb threat.
“The building has been evacuated and SLED along with the Colleton County Sheriff’s Office are investigating the threat,” Wunderlich said.
The Colleton County Sheriff’s Office urged people in the area to use an alternative route around the courthouse. Deputies planned to update traffic conditions as necessary.
Murdaugh has been on trial for the June 7, 2021, killings of his 52-year-old wife, Maggie; and their 22-year-old son, Paul.
