Blair’s purchase comes about a year and a half after two local businessmen purchased the Murdaughs’ original 1,700-acre estate — including the dog kennels where Paul and Maggie Murdaugh were murdered in July 2021 — for nearly $4 million at an auction, as Realtor.com first reported.

The former South Carolina legal scion appealed the decision on allegations that former Colleton County Court Clerk Becky Hill, who presided over the infamous double murder trial, tampered with the jury. 

Murdaugh would later plead guilty to dozens of financial crimes for defrauding his law firm clients out of an estimated total of about $10 million. He received a 40-year prison sentence for those crimes.
