Murdaugh accomplice pleads guilty to wire, bank fraud in South Carolina

In Charleston, South Carolina, a banker has admitted to aiding Alex Murdaugh, a former attorney in the state, in concealing stolen money. Russell L. Laffitte, aged 54, pleaded guilty to federal bank and wire fraud charges on Friday. This plea came after his previous convictions for the same offenses were overturned by an appeals court last year.
