The disgraced South Carolina lawyer convicted of killing his wife and son is pushing for a new murder trial over allegations of jury tampering. A hearing will be held in the coming months to decide whether Alex Murdaugh’s case will be presented in front of a new jury. A new judge, retired South Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Jean Toal, will oversee Murdaugh’s hearing after Judge Clifton Newman withdrew himself from the high-profile case. Law&Crime’s Angenette Levy discusses the jury tampering allegations and Murdaugh’s potential for a new trial with attorneys Joe McCulloch and Ronnie Richter in this episode of Crime Fix, a daily show that dives deep into the most trending stories in true crime.

I cannot get my head around that he killed his wife and son, because he was not man enough to face up to his crimes that is crazy why did he just kill yourself? When you think you’ve heard the worse, then you get another dreadful case and I don’t understand why buster sticks by him, because if he was there on the night, he would’ve been Kill to that is beyond mental
He should get a new trial — if his wife and son get a new life
I live in SC and I don’t everybody
Judge Newman did Not disqualify himself! He recused himself! That's totally different, Snake Joe. How much did you pay for Becky Hill's media birthday party with the entire Fits News crew in attendance Joe? What notes were you taking the entire 6 weeks during the trial gonna write a book yourself to make more money off Murdaugh?
Does SC actually think the verdict will be different with a new trial?
New trial is in order. Judge chooses himself who the jury lead is going to be.. was suspicious from the beginning.. then we have Becky groom the Jury lead to come to a conclusion desired. The whole time what was supposed to be a murder trial, they talked about financial crimes. did not like how that trial was handled, judge carried water for prosecution, and now we have Becky influencing Jury lead, who was chosen by the judge , not other jurors. Corruption.
Nothing’s gonna come of it. He’s gonna spend the rest of his life in prison there you go.
If he does get a new trial I guess we know where some of the missing millions went
He’s still GUILTY AF!!
Only in America 🤷♀️
I call b.s
** Man, I could never be a lawyer. I’m too honest. They are really deplorable people that have no moras
I'm so sick of guilty rich people getting off. I hope he doesnt get off!!
He will be out of prison in under five years no doubt
That’s nice. Good that they are interacting.
The issue is that if Becky Hill has been involved in tampering of any sort, Murdaugh should get a new trial. There’s no doubt that AM is a scumbag of note but now it’s the integrity of the judicial process that’s on trial.
Murder or murdaugh?! 😅
Why??……..is he special that he rates a new trail guilty in one …….guilty in the next just a tax payers waste of money!!!
Just lawyer greed
He killed a family? I thought he stole 20 million
They should move the trial out of state. He probably owns (or has some sort of connection to) all of the judges around him/in that state. Take it to a different state, different judge, different jury members
Never understood why she wrote a book anyway! Have never seen this in any other trial ever. Money grab.
No new trial needed – Let everything stand as already is- GUILTY!
poor Angenette working on holidays
She's going to deny it. I hope the prosecutor is ready.
If the Clerk did this, Alec SHOULD get a new trial. And like the previous poster, I wonder how often she acted like this.
First time I've heard of half a dozen eggs being a reason to disqualify a juror. I remember thinking at the time that the judge was really ott during his summing up. I'm glad another judge will be looking at truth and only the facts.
What a mess
Why a retired judge ?
Where’s all the money coming from to continually fight this? Even if he does get a new trial the evidence is overwhelming the evidence that convicted him in the first place.
MucCullough was always a Murdaugh fanboy. Unsurprised. He has always come across as a conniving defense lawyer.
If they want a by the book trial, they'll have to go to another state. I have lived in this state for 28 years, and this is the typical good ole boy at work. What a waste of my tax money. I'll be moving out of this state soon, never looking back.
She should be in prison.
I wonder who engineered THIS!!
Is anyone suprised? America is the most corrupt place on Earth!
this man shut be in jail forever crime family
