Jason and Michelle were found dead on December 18 after being reported missing.

They were last heard from on Saturday, December 16 after Jason made a call to his estranged wife to tell her that he crashed the car and slid off the road.

The woman told police that Murph hung up the phone and it was the last time she heard from him.

The security footage was from around an hour before Murph placed the call to his estranged wife.

Richland County Sheriff’s Department police officers found the family’s car around noon on Monday and recovered the bodies an hour later.

The truck was found in a field and was burned.

A K9 unit found the Murph family’s bodies about 100 yards away from the truck.

South Carolina authorities said autopsies were inconclusive, but there was enough evidence to determine hypothermia as the cause of death.

The father and daughter had no suspicious injuries and there was no suspicion of foul play.

Quentin Murph, Jason Murph’s cousin, wasn’t sure why the two were in the area where they crashed as it wasn’t on the way to their destination.

He said they were going from Blythewood to Orangeburg to visit Jason Murph’s mom.

“We’re sorry we weren’t there to maybe help you during the time you needed us the most,” he said to CBS affiliate WAFB.

“I just want to say we love you and we’ll always keep you in our fondest memories.”

Michelle Murph was a student at Sandlapper Elementary school.
