WASHINGTON, April 2 — Alex Murdaugh, the South Carolina lawyer convicted in a high-profile trial last year of murdering his wife and son, was sentenced to 40 years in prison yesterday for financial crimes.

Murdaugh pleaded guilty last year to state charges of stealing millions of dollars from clients of his prominent personal injury firm, and was sentenced to 27 years in prison. Murdaugh pleaded guilty to the federal charges in September, at which time US Attorney Adair Boroughs said the disbarred lawyer’s “financial crimes were extensive, brazen, and callous.”
