The building has been evacuated and SLED along with the Colleton County Sheriff’s Office are investigating the threat,” the statement read.It remains unclear who called in the threat and if there is a genuine bomb or it is a hoax.
Minutes later, Mr Murdaugh’s attorney Dick Harpootlian told ABCNews4 that there had been a “bomb threat”. Maggie and Paul were shot dead on the family’s sprawling 1,700-acre estate in Islandton back on 7 June 2021.
