A new twist in the Murdaugh saga surfaced during the August 14 pretrial hearing for Alec’s upcoming second murder trial. The defense revealed it had learned of another Allendale County shooting involving a .300 Blackout — the same caliber used to kill Maggie Murdaugh.
According to newly obtained records, the April 25 homicide of Frank Alexander III in Islandton — just miles from Moselle — also involved a .300 Blackout. SLED entered the casings into NIBIN, reporting no investigative leads. But a key question remains: Were Maggie’s casings ever entered for comparison?
FOIA requests filed by Jen Wood uncovered that at least one casing from Maggie’s shooting was entered into IBIS, a database linked to NIBIN. That means the casings can be compared — yet prosecutors insist no match exists.
With .300 Blackout rifles being uncommon in the Lowcountry and rarely used in homicides nationwide, the defense argues this new shooting could reshape the narrative heading into Alec’s 2027 retrial. FITSNews sources say the Allendale victim may have ties to individuals connected to the broader Murdaugh story.
As the tide turns, this podcast continues examining the evidence through the lens of Alex Murdaugh’s innocence — and what this new ballistic thread might mean for the upcoming trial.
