The records CNN has obtained from Alex Murdaugh's time so far in prison include a short phone call between the convicted murderer and his only surviving son, Buster.

It's the first time the public has heard Murdaugh's voice since Judge Clifton Newman handed him two life sentences in March, after a jury found him guilty of shooting and killing his wife, Maggie, and youngest son, Paul.

Murdaugh placed the free prison call to Buster on May 16, 2023. It lasts just 42 seconds.

FITSNews was the first to publish the phone call, along with other records from Murdaugh's time in a South Carolina state prison.

Alex Murdaugh opens the call with the greeting, "Hey buddy."

Buster hastily responds, "Hey, I don't have a whole lot of time. I just boarded a ferry to go back to Hilton Head from Daufuskie [Island]".

The onetime personal lawyer notes he's "been trying to call" his son, adding, "I was supposed to call you while you were with Jim, about this meeting. How about text Jim and let him know I'm trying to call him?"
