According to Morgan, Gloria told Paul what she had found because she was "scared" to go to Maggie, Alex's wife, about the situation.Īccording to the docuseries, some people felt Gloria knew too much and that knowledge got her killed. Morgan Doughty, Paul's girlfriend, shared that Alex Murdaugh was addicted to painkillers and Gloria had allegedly found drugs taped underneath Alex's bed.
But, as her brother Eric put it, his sister "really wasn't responsive to the whole time she was in the hospital." Gloria's death wasn't immediate she died on February 26. Maggie Murdaugh, Paul and Buster's mother, called 911, saying Gloria had "fallen," and had done so "going up the steps" to the Murdaugh house.Īccording to Valerie Bauerlein from The Wall Street Journal, who investigated the murders and was interviewed for the docuseries, Gloria's family members were told Gloria "tripped over the family dogs on the stairs, and fell backward, and hit her head violently and died." Three years after Stephen died, the Murdaugh housekeeper (who was a second mother to Alex Murdaugh's youngest son, Paul Murdaugh, according to Paul's ex-girlfriend, Morgan Doughty), Gloria Satterfield, was injured while working at the Murdaugh house and later died. His murder has never been solved and, per People, how Stephen died "remains a mystery to this day." Once the Murdaugh's name entered the chat, the investigation into Stephen's death "just fade away," according to private investigator Steve Peterson. But not long after, "that's when it all started to unravel." Buster, and possibly one or two other people, who happened to be in the area, pulled up and offered him a ride. One theory went, according to Olivia, that Stephen ran out of gas and called Buster for help. There were rumors Stephen and Buster were secretly intimate together, which would have "damaged" the Murdaugh family name. Stephen's case went cold, and when a private investigator hired by Stephen's mother dug into the murder, he spoke with many people who all said they had heard Buster Murdaugh - Alex Murdaugh's eldest son - allegedly committed the crime.
Stephen was an openly gay teenager, who, as his friend Olivia said, "did not give a sh*t about what people thought about him." The 19-year-old had severe head trauma and, as one of the troopers there that night said in the documentary, "Nothing at the scene appeared that it was a vehicular accident." The incident happened not too far away from where classmate Mallory Beach (more on her later) lived. Stephen Smith's body was found in the middle of the road in Hampton County, South Carolina, his car parked a few miles away.
