Best Friend Accused of Helping Alex Murdaugh Steal Millions Now Suspended From Practicing Law
A South Carolina lawyer described in court papers as Alex Murdaughs best friend and college roommate has been suspended from practicing law amid allegations he helped the scion steal millions of dollars from a wrongful death lawsuit settlement for his former housekeeper.
In a Friday ruling by the South Carolina Supreme Court, Cory Fleming was placed on interim suspension, pending an investigation, under a statute that states upon receipt of sufficient evidence demonstrating that a lawyer poses a substantial threat of serious harm to the public or to the administration of justice the court may suspend an attorney.
The suspension is the latest legal snag for Fleming, a criminal defense lawyer for Moss, Kuhn, & Fleming, who has been accused in at least two lawsuits filed against Murdaugh.
Cory Fleming is Alex Murdaughs best friend, his former college roommate, and his closest confidant, Eric Bland, an attorney representing the sons of Murdaughs former housekeeper, told The Daily Beast last month. There is a history of Murdaugh referring people to Fleming.
