Convicted murderer and accused serial fraudster Richard "Alex" Murdaugh is now admitting he bilked an insurance company out of millions after the death of his family's housekeeper and lied about dogs causing her to trip and fall before she died.
The admissions were contained in a filing Monday in a lawsuit brought by Nautilus Insurance Company against Murdaugh and others, alleging fraud and conspiracy to commit fraud. The Scottsdale, Arizona, insurance agency provided a $5 million umbrella policy for Murdaugh that paid out claims after Gloria Satterfield's death in 2018.
In the filing, Murdaugh's lawyers say that when he learned that Satterfield had fallen down steps at his Moselle estate in South Carolina, he "rushed to the scene, arriving before EMS," and then fabricated a story about what caused the fall that eventually led to her death weeks later.
Murdaugh originally told insurance adjusters that Satterfield tripped over his dogs.

The discovery of the text message contributed to a chain of events that ultimately led to Tucker Carlson’s firing.

Tucker Carlson January 7, 2021 — 04:18:04 PM UTC
A couple of weeks ago, I was watching video of people fighting on the street in Washington. A group of Trump guys surrounded an Antifa kid and started pounding the living shit out of him. It was three against one, at least. Jumping a guy like that is dishonorable obviously. It’s not how white men fight. Yet suddenly I found myself rooting for the mob against the man, hoping they’d hit him harder, kill him. I really wanted them to hurt the kid. I could taste it. Then somewhere deep in my brain, an alarm went off: this isn’t good for me. I’m becoming something I don’t want to be. The Antifa creep is a human being. Much as I despise what he says and does, much as I’m sure I’d hate him personally if I knew him, I shouldn’t gloat over his suffering. I should be bothered by it. I should remember that somewhere somebody probably loves this kid, and would be crushed if he was killed. If I don’t care about those things, if I reduce people to their politics, how am I better than he is?
For years, Mr. Carlson espoused views on his show that amplified the ideology of white nationalism. But the text message revealed more about his views on racial superiority.
The text alarmed the Fox board, which saw the message a day before Fox was set to defend itself against Dominion Voting Systems before a jury. The board grew concerned that the message could become public at trial when Mr. Carlson was on the stand, creating a sensational and damaging moment that would raise broader questions about the company.

Police: Serbia school shooter had list of students to target
BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) — A 13-year-old who opened fire Wednesday at his school in Serbia’s capital drew sketches of classrooms and made a list of children he intended to target in a meticulously planned attack, police said. He killed eight fellow students and a guard before calling the police and being arrested.
Mass shootings are extremely rare in the Balkan region, although Serbia is awash in guns left over from the wars of the 1990s. No mass shootings have been reported at Serbian schools in recent years.
The shooter killed a school guard and then three students in a hallway of the Vladislav Ribnikar school in central Belgrade, according to senior police official Veselin Milic. He then entered a history classroom close to the school entrance and opened fire again, Milic said. Seven girls and one boy were killed, he said.
