SC lawyer to surrender

Alex Murdaugh plans to turn himself in to authorities on Thursday for allegedly trying to commit insurance fraud by suicide, his lawyer said Wednesday.

A warrant was issued for his arrest Tuesday and a bond hearing for Murdaugh is set for 4 p.m.

Thursday at Hampton County Magistrate Court, his attorney, Jim Griffin, told The Post.

Murdaugh allegedly orchestrated his own roadside shooting in a bid to leave his son a $10 million insurance payout.

Curtis Edward Smitt, 61, whom Murdaugh allegedly hired to shoot him in the botched plot, was arrested Tuesday.

Smitt, an ex-Murdaugh legal client and suspected drug dealer, was hit with a slew of charges in the plot, authorities have said.
