Greenville, North Carolina’s WYFF News 4 states that hundreds of items from the Murdaugh estate went on sale starting March 23 at 4 p.m. at Liberty Auction in Pembroke, Georgia. A somewhat disturbing video of the auction hall from Twitter shows a flea market-like warehouse with loads of Murdaugh goods spread out over foldable tables, and tons of people milling around poking through it all. The tweet states that people drove to the auction from as far away as Virginia and Alabama. Another WYFF News 4 article quotes such individuals, one of whom stated, “I am actually in Charleston with my husband on business. I had the day off and thought I’d make the drive. It’s a beautiful day out.” Another auction-goer said, “My mom has been following the Murdaugh cases for the past four years or so, so we figured this would be a good wrap-up to the trial.”

In case any reader is thinking of heading to Pembroke to pick up some memorabilia once belonging to a convicted murderer, the auction is long done. WYFF News 4 says that it ended at 10:30 p.m. on the day it started, with every item sold. ABC News 4 lists several stand-out items and their sale prices: $1,300 for the popcorn machine we mentioned before, $400 for a Yeti cup, seven fake turtle shell lamps that went to different people and sold for $5,400 total, and a wall-mounted set of antlers for $10,000.
