He further stated “while I will support him in his recovery, I do not support, condone, or excuse his conduct in stealing by manipulating his most trusted relationships. I will continue to pursue my client’s interests with the highest degree of honesty and integrity, as I always have.”
The law firm; Peters Murdaugh Parker Eltzroth and Detrick (PMPED) had officially reported to the police that he had been involved in “alleged misappropriation” for almost $1 million in the money of the law firm.
