Items purportedly from the Murdaugh estate known as Moselle that were auctioned off last week are now cropping up on eBay — many with exorbitant price tags, including a crossbow for $21,000 and a camouflage gun case with an opening bid of $4,999.
Alex Murdaugh, 54, was sentenced March 3 to two terms of life in prison for fatally shooting his wife, Maggie, 52, and his 22-year-old son, Paul, on the family’s hunting estate in June 2021 in Hampton County.

“We think these are very novel pieces. They came from a very nice plantation lodge in South Carolina, and we want them to live on,” Jennings told Fox News Digital. “We try to specialize at our lodge… very unique things that are conversation pieces for people, and they…
