The Mallory Beach family reached a settlement of about $15 million related to the 2019 Murdaugh boat crash. This figure has been reported in multiple outlets as the base amount for Mallory Beach’s wrongful-death claim, with additional allocations to other survivors in some settlement versions. The settlement stems from Parker’s Kitchen (and related parties) after alcohol- tainted purchase issues connected to the crash were alleged, and it was reached before a jury trial could proceed.
Key points:
- Core settlement amount for Mallory Beach’s family: $15 million (initial reports described as the global settlement for Beach’s wrongful-death claim).
- Some reports note that the total package, including payments to other victims, could exceed $15 million, with specific breakdowns varying by settlement terms and final court approvals.
- The case related to the Beach death involved Parker’s Corporation (Parker’s Kitchen) and the circumstances around alcohol sales to a minor, which factored into the settlement negotiations.
