Mallory Beach Autopsy: How Did She Die?

According to the Mallory Beach autopsy report, she died from blunt force head injuries from the collision. Her body was missing for over a week following the February 24, 2019 incident. What happened that night? Around 19, friends Paul Murdaugh (Alex’s now-murdered son), Mallory, Morgan Doughty, Miley Altman, Connor Cook, and Anthony Cook were drinking beer on Paul’s family’s boat.

A helicopter, rescue boats, divers, and volunteers found Mallory’s body five miles downstream from the accident scene following an eight-day search. The coroner found she drowned and suffered blunt force head injuries.

In March 2019, Mallory’s family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the Murdaughs, claiming that Paul’s mother Maggie (now deceased) knew her son was drunk when they went boating and that Buster, Paul’s elder brother, gave the teens his ID to buy alcohol. The 19-year-old’s murder began the Murdaugh legal dynasty’s decline. South Carolina’s Lowcountry lead prosecutor until 2005 was Alex’s father and Paul’s grandfather Randolph Murdaugh III.

The three-part Netflix documentary opens with Mallory’s fatal vehicle accident and explores the tragic events surrounding the Murdaugh family. Alex was charged with murdering his wife Maggie and son Paul, although he denies it.

Who Was Mallory Beach Boyfriend?

Anthony Cook was Mallory’s boyfriend when she died. They attended an oyster roast with Anthony’s cousin Connor Cook and his girlfriend Miley Altman on February 23, 2019. Paul Murdaugh and then-girlfriend Morgan Doughty joined.

They boarded the ship early February 24 to return home. Unfortunately, several died. “He was out of his mind intoxicated,” Anthony says of Paul Murdaugh in the documentary. Despite his friends’ pleadings, the youngster refused to stop driving.“I heard a scream and then I was out,” Anthony said of the crash. He said he woke up to find Mallory missing and kept diving in and out of the water, but it was too late.
