Buster Murdaugh has broken his silence in a new interview, saying he doesn’t believe his father Alex killed his brother and mother – and denies having anything to do with Stephen Smith’s death.
The eldest son of the disgraced former South Carolina attorney told Fox Nation he doesn’t think it’s possible his father, 55, killed Maggie and Paul in 2021 at their hunting estate, Moselle.
He said, βI think I have a very unique perspective that no one else in that courtroom has ever had. And I know the love I’ve witnessed.
“I spent six weeks studying it, and I think it was a tilted table from the start.”
Buster, 26, had also pointed the finger at him for the death of his classmate Stephen Smith, 19, in 2015 – and also claimed the pair were in a relationship.
In his interview, he denied any connection to Smith’s death, saying, “I never had anything to do with his murder and I never had anything to do with him on a physical level.”

Convicted killer Alex is currently serving two life sentences for the murders, despite insisting from the witness stand during his trial that he is not guilty
Murdaugh spoke for the first time on FOX Nation’s The Fall of the House of Murdaughhosted by Martha MacCallum, aired August 31.
Convicted killer Alex is currently serving two life sentences for the murders, despite insisting from the witness stand during his trial that he is not guilty.
The former lawyer is appealing his conviction, with Buster doubling down on the charges against his father.
He took aim at the police and judge, saying they had a “lousy motive” and that he “doesn’t believe it was fair” that all 12 jurors found him guilty.
“I studied it for six weeks, and I think it was a tilted table from the start,” Buster said.
βAnd I think a lot of jurors, unfortunately, felt that way before they had to deliberate.
“It was predetermined in their minds before they ever heard a single piece of evidence given in that room.”
He believes the jury ultimately found his father guilty of the shootings because of “everything they could read prior to trial.”

It was revealed at trial that Alex had lied about being in the kennels where Maggie and Paul were shot dead at the hunting estate.
His lie was exposed after his voice was captured on a Snapchat video on Paul’s phone, taken just before the murders.
Buster says it’s “strange” that his father lied about being around, adding that he was “confused” and would like to know why his father lied.
The new series promises a behind-the-scenes look with exclusive video before and during the trial and interviews with lawyers Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin.
