    Les dynasties ont toujours fasciné. Richesse, pouvoir, impunité... On pense les familles riches à l'abri du besoin et de la violence. Mais parfois, elles se révèlent être le théâtre des pires horreurs… C'est le cas de la famille Murdaugh, une puissante famille d'avocats américains. Le 7 juin 2021, Maggie Murdaugh et son fils Paul sont retrouvés sauvagement assassinés devant leur pavillon de chasse en Caroline du Sud. Mais que s'est-il passé ? Qui a bien pu s'en prendre aux membres de cette famille, aussi riche que controversée ? Les derniers mensonges d'Alex Le 23 janvier 2023, au tribunal du Comté de Colleton, s'ouvre le procès d'Alex Murdaugh, accusé du double meurtre de sa femme Maggie et de son fils Paul.  Un an et demi plus tôt, Alex était encore le puissant héritier d'une dynastie qui, depuis 100 ans, faisait sa loi dans les marais de Caroline du Sud. Il était un avocat riche et corpulent.  Mais à l'ouverture du procès, Alex Murdaugh, en chemise blanche et veste de blazer anthracite, apparaît amaigri. Il a visiblement perdu de sa superbe en détention préventive. Pourtant, il clame toujours haut et fort son innocence.

    Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell take a break from the Alex Murdaugh retrial drama this week to revisit one of the most devastating cases they've covered in their careers: the 2015 death of 38-year-old Sara Lynn Moore Colucci.  Nine years after Sarah Lynn Colucci's mother Barbara Moore filed a wrongful death lawsuit, accused killer Michael Colucci finally sat for his deposition — after skipping two of them — and pleaded the Fifth roughly 100 times, refusing to answer everything from the color of his tie to his own birthday.  We break down the devastating questions he wouldn't answer about the autopsy findings, his shifting stories, and his financial troubles — and why Barbara's new motion for summary judgment asks the judge to apply adverse inferences to 28 of them.  They also expose the staggering double standard of South Carolina justice: Colucci was fined just $1,283.00 for blowing off two depositions, while Mandy was ordered to pay $176,500.00 in a case she isn't even a party to.  Plus, an exciting announcement: COERCED: The Devotion & Death of Mica Francis Miller, the first LUNASHARK® “Drop-Feed”, launches Friday.

    There's DNA under Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails that's never been identified — and an outside lab is about to get a shot at it. Judge Debra McCaslin ordered independent testing on the unknown male genetic material at an August 14 pretrial hearing, siding with defense arguments that SLED's own retesting method risked destroying the sample for good. Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer break down what happened in that Lexington County courtroom. McCaslin also pulled Alex Murdaugh's retrial entirely outside the 14th Judicial Circuit, pointing to the impossibility of seating an unbiased jury in a county Murdaugh's family effectively ran for three generations. She ruled the state can replay Murdaugh's own 2023 sworn testimony for the new jury, including his admission that he lied about being at the kennels the night his wife and son were killed. In a separate development, the defense told the court that weapons recovered in a recent Allendale County homicide may be ballistically linked to the Moselle murder weapons — a claim prosecutor Creighton Waters said blindsided him despite his daily contact with SLED. McCaslin is now personally overseeing jury selection after questions surfaced about when Becky Hill's interference in the original trial actually started. Murdaugh's team is also asking the judge to void the murder charges over allegations a SLED agent fabricated grand jury evidence. Next hearing: November 14.

    A South Carolina county of 37,000 people, where the Murdaugh family ran the local prosecutor's office for three generations, will not be hosting Alex Murdaugh's retrial. Judge Debra McCaslin pulled the case entirely outside the 14th Judicial Circuit at an August 14 pretrial hearing, and Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer break down everything else that happened in that courtroom. Murdaugh's defense told the court that weapons from a recent Allendale County homicide may be ballistically linked to the Moselle murder weapons — information prosecutor Creighton Waters said he'd never heard, despite daily contact with SLED. McCaslin ordered independent lab testing on unidentified male DNA recovered from under Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails, siding with the defense's argument that SLED's own retesting process risked destroying the sample. She ruled Murdaugh's 2023 sworn testimony — including his admission that he lied about being at the kennels the night his wife and son died — can be replayed for the new jury. She's also now personally managing jury summons after questions arose about whether court official Becky Hill's interference in the original trial began earlier than previously understood. Murdaugh's team separately wants the murder charges voided outright, alleging a SLED agent fabricated evidence presented to the grand jury; that motion has not been ruled on.

    Alex Murdaugh's lawyers have accused a SLED agent of fabricating evidence used to charge him with murder in the first place. That motion is now sitting in front of Judge Debra McCaslin, one of several bombshells to come out of an August 14 pretrial hearing. Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer cover the full hearing, start to finish. McCaslin pulled the retrial entirely outside the 14th Judicial Circuit, ruling that a county where Murdaugh's family ran the prosecutor's office for three generations can't seat an unbiased jury.

    Part One of Two Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell break down everything that happened at Alex Murdaugh's most recent hearing.Team Murdaugh came to Friday's retrial hearing armed with a "bombshell" that turned out to be a dud… a rumor from fitsnews claiming Murdaugh murder weapons were tied to a recent Allendale County killing. However, no article existed, prosecutor Creighton Waters had never heard of it, and SLED debunked the claim within minutes.Mandy and Liz break down how the fumble unraveled in real time — and why so much of the media ran with it anyway. Then there's the venue circus: Dick Harpootlian putting his own associate on the stand to testify about budget hotels and Cracker Barrel commutes, insisting on Charleston-only... before pivoting to Richland County in a Monday letter to Judge McCaslin. Plus, the ruling that matters most: Alex's sworn testimony from the first trial — the lies, the kennel video admission, all of it — is allowed into the record in Murdaugh 2.0. Testifying has consequences. So does lying about where you were when your family was murdered.Vote for Laura Richards and Mandy Matney's SXSW Panel!Let's Dive In…

    Creighton Waters communicates with SLED daily. On August 14, he stood in a Lexington courtroom and admitted he had never heard of a possible connection between weapons from an Allendale County homicide and the firearms tied to the Murdaugh murders. The claim came from Murdaugh's defense team, not from the state's own investigators. McCaslin told the defense the claim raised her eyebrows.That admission followed a hearing stacked with prosecution setbacks. Judge McCaslin pulled the retrial out of Colleton County and the surrounding judicial circuit, where three generations of Murdaughs ran the local prosecutor's office. She gave the defense access to fingernail DNA from Maggie Murdaugh for its own lab analysis, overruling the state's argument that the evidence contained nothing new. She allowed conditional use of Murdaugh's prior testimony but restricted it to his statements about the night Maggie and Paul were killed.McCaslin assumed personal responsibility for building the jury pool after defense attorney Dick Harpootlian asked when Becky Hill's tampering influence on the first jury actually began. Hill, the former Colleton County clerk, pleaded guilty to perjury and obstruction.Murdaugh, who has pleaded not guilty, appeared unshackled and in a suit for the first time since his November 2023 financial crimes sentencing. His defense has a pending motion asking McCaslin to dismiss the murder indictments based on alleged fabrication of blood evidence by SLED's lead case agent. The prosecution has not yet responded. The next hearing is November 14 and the retrial is set for April 5, 2027.Links:Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Alex Murdaugh walked into a Lexington courtroom on August 14 wearing a dark blue suit and striped tie. It was the first time he appeared in civilian clothes since being sentenced for stealing twelve million dollars in November 2023. Judge McCaslin had ordered the change days earlier, ruling that showing a defendant in prison clothes and shackles for convictions not before her court risks prejudicing potential jurors. Murdaugh has pleaded not guilty to the murders of his wife Maggie and their son Paul.His defense team then won on nearly every front. McCaslin granted a venue change out of the 14th Judicial Circuit, where the Murdaugh family's ancestors served as chief prosecutors for most of the last century. She allowed independent testing of unknown male DNA found under Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails and placed conditions on how prosecutors can use Murdaugh's sworn testimony from 2023, limiting it to testimony about the killings.McCaslin personally assumed control of jury selection after Dick Harpootlian raised concerns about when former clerk Becky Hill's interference with the original jury started. Hill pleaded guilty to perjury and obstruction after the South Carolina Supreme Court overturned Murdaugh's conviction.Near the end of the hearing, the defense claimed weapons from a recent Allendale County homicide may be connected to the Murdaugh murder case. Lead prosecutor Creighton Waters said he had never heard of it. A motion to throw out the murder indictments over alleged evidence fabrication by SLED's lead case agent is still pending.

    A motion filed on August 10 asks Judge Debra McCaslin to dismiss Alex Murdaugh's murder indictments entirely. The defense alleges SLED's lead case agent gave false testimony and presented fabricated blood evidence on a T-shirt to the Colleton County grand jury that charged Murdaugh in 2022. No prosecution response has been filed and McCaslin has not ruled.That pending motion was the backdrop for an August 14 hearing where the defense gained ground on every other contested issue. McCaslin granted a change of venue out of the 14th Judicial Circuit, citing the high rate of jurors disqualified in the original trial and the Murdaugh family's generations-long role in the local legal establishment.She ordered the release of unknown male DNA recovered from Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails for independent defense testing. She ruled Murdaugh's 2023 testimony conditionally admissible, limited to statements about the deaths of Maggie and Paul, rejecting the defense argument that his decision to testify was compelled by improperly admitted financial crimes evidence.McCaslin took personal control of jury selection, responding to Dick Harpootlian's concerns about when former clerk Becky Hill began shaping the original pool. The hearing ended with the defense raising a potential ballistics link between the murder weapons and a recent Allendale County homicide. Lead prosecutor Creighton Waters told the court he had never heard of the connection despite daily contact with SLED. Murdaugh has pleaded not guilty. The retrial remains set for April 5, 2027.Links:Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Some of America’s most notorious criminal cases are taking dramatic new turns. Tudor Dixon is joined by criminal defense attorney David Gelman to break down the latest legal developments involving Luigi Mangione, Bryan Kohberger, Alex Murdaugh, and Lindsay Clancy. They examine the intense public fascination surrounding Mangione, his potential legal strategy and sentencing, and what Gelman describes as the “Netflix effect” that can turn accused and convicted killers into cultural figures. They also discuss Kohberger’s effort to withdraw his guilty plea and why Gelman believes his chances of succeeding are extraordinarily slim. Then, Tudor and David examine why Alex Murdaugh is getting another trial, including allegations of improper conduct involving the court clerk and the jury. Finally, they tackle the disturbing Lindsay Clancy case and the complicated questions surrounding postpartum mental health, medication, criminal intent, reasonable doubt, and whether doctors and pharmaceutical companies should face greater scrutiny when medications are alleged to contribute to violent behavior. It’s a wide-ranging look inside the criminal justice system—and the legal battles behind some of the cases captivating America.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Why Murdaugh's New Motion Names Nobody At All

    Alex Murdaugh's defense filed a new motion demanding prosecutors search again for evidence and witness credibility material generated since the first trial, and certify in writing, within thirty days, that nothing favorable was missed. It names no witness. It alleges no specific missing document. Tony Brueski breaks down why that might be the point. The supplemental Brady and Giglio motion lists ten categories: plea and cooperation agreements, new witness statements, updated personnel and internal affairs files, testing methodology and proficiency records, additional search warrants, and anything post-trial bearing on the verdict's integrity. Prosecutors haven't responded yet, and a sanctions motion tied to an earlier suppression claim from the first trial is still outstanding. The filing lands alongside a separate move from the state: prosecutors want a new jury to hear Murdaugh's own 2023 testimony, including his admission that he lied to investigators for about eighteen months about being at the kennels the night Maggie and Paul were killed. The state is also renewing motions to keep third-party guilt evidence from the jury and to bar any mention of a polygraph, after Murdaugh's attorneys once claimed Curtis Eddie Smith failed one on the murders. Prosecutors are pushing for a fresh review of digital evidence while opposing independent DNA testing sought by the defense. Judge Debra McCaslin has tentatively set the retrial for April 5, 2027. Murdaugh is presumed innocent, has denied the killings since 2021, and remains imprisoned on unrelated financial crimes. Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    For about eighteen months, Alex Murdaugh told investigators he was never at the kennels the night Maggie and Paul were killed. He later admitted, under oath, that wasn't true. Prosecutors now want a brand new jury to hear that admission directly from his own 2023 testimony. Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke break down what the state's filing is actually asking for. Alongside the testimony, prosecutors are renewing two pretrial wins from the first trial: keeping third-party guilt evidence from the jury, and barring any mention of a polygraph, a rule that matters because Murdaugh's own attorneys once told a court Curtis Eddie Smith failed one when asked about the murders. Prosecutors are also seeking a fresh review of digital evidence and fighting the defense's request for independent DNA testing. The defense has its own move on the table. A supplemental Brady and Giglio motion demands prosecutors search again for favorable evidence and witness credibility material generated since the first trial, and certify in writing within thirty days that the search was thorough. Ten categories are listed, from plea deals to personnel files to testing methodology, and the motion names no specific witness or missing document. A sanctions motion from the first trial remains unresolved, and prosecutors haven't responded. Judge Debra McCaslin has tentatively set the retrial for April 5, 2027.

    Polygraph results can't be used as evidence in court. That hasn't stopped them from becoming a flashpoint heading into Alex Murdaugh's retrial, after his own attorneys once told a court that Curtis Eddie Smith failed one when asked about the murders of Maggie and Paul. Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke take listener questions on why prosecutors are moving to bar the subject entirely. That motion is part of a larger filing. Prosecutors want a new jury to hear Murdaugh's own 2023 testimony, including his admission that he lied to investigators for roughly eighteen months about being at the kennels the night his wife and son were killed, and his denial of the killings themselves. The state is also renewing a motion to keep third-party guilt evidence from the jury, pushing for a fresh review of digital evidence, and opposing the defense's request for independent DNA testing. Murdaugh's defense has answered with its own filing: a supplemental Brady and Giglio motion demanding prosecutors search again for favorable evidence generated since the first trial and certify in writing, within thirty days, that the search was complete. Ten categories are listed, covering everything from plea deals to lab proficiency testing, and the motion doesn't name a single witness or document. Judge Debra McCaslin has tentatively set the retrial for April 5, 2027. Dreeke weighs what the polygraph fight and the certification demand both say about where this case stands.

    Murdaugh Witness Ryan Kelly Got Fired For WHAT?!

    Ryan Kelly told Alex Murdaugh's jury that nothing tied alternate suspect Eddie Smith to the murders of Maggie and Paul. In June 2026, he was fired from a Charleston County internal affairs job. The records don't describe the allegations, and nothing currently links the firing to his SLED work or the Murdaugh case. Tony Brueski lays out exactly what's known and what isn't. The timing matters because of what else surfaced the same week. On August 5, 2026, Murdaugh's defense filed a Brady motion demanding prosecutors search every file, agency, and personnel record connected to the case and swear in writing that nothing favorable to Murdaugh is being withheld. It leans heavily on lead investigator David Owen's record: a 2015 murder case where a judge later quashed the indictment because the state sat on favorable evidence for nearly a decade, including a mother's account that Owen denied under oath. Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins to weigh whether the defense's demand is a fishing expedition or something this investigation has earned. She also addresses the white shirt Murdaugh wore the night of the murders, which tested negative for human blood before a chemical used in SLED's own testing left it permanently unusable for any further analysis. The same day the motion was filed, a federal judge dismissed Murdaugh's $600,000 lawsuit against former clerk Becky Hill, whose jury tampering overturned his original convictions. Hill has pleaded guilty to obstruction, perjury, and misconduct and received no prison time. Judge Debra McCaslin hears arguments on the Brady motion August 14, 2026.

    David Owen led the SLED investigation that put Alex Murdaugh behind bars. Years earlier he led another murder investigation that a judge later threw out entirely, and on the stand in that case, Owen denied something a grieving mother says she told him directly. Tony Brueski lays out what that denial was and why it's surfacing again now. In June 2025, a South Carolina judge quashed the indictment in State v. Colucci after ruling the state sat on favorable evidence for nearly a decade. The victim's mother testified she told Owen in 2015 that her daughter had spoken about ending her own life, testimony directly relevant to the case and something Owen said under oath never happened. That history now sits at the center of a Brady motion Murdaugh's defense filed on August 5, 2026, demanding prosecutors search every file, agency, and personnel record tied to the case and confirm in writing that nothing favorable to Murdaugh remains hidden. Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer weighs whether the motion is a fishing expedition or something this investigation has genuinely earned. She also addresses agent Ryan Kelly, who told Murdaugh's jury nothing connected alternate suspect Eddie Smith to the murders and was fired from an unrelated Charleston County job in June 2026. The episode also covers the physical evidence fight over the shirt Murdaugh wore the night Maggie and Paul were killed, tested negative for blood and then rendered permanently untestable, and the recent dismissal of Murdaugh's lawsuit against Becky Hill, the clerk whose jury tampering overturned his original convictions. Judge Debra McCaslin hears arguments on the motion August 14, 2026.

    Alex Murdaugh's defense wants a South Carolina judge to order something rare: a full search of every file, agency, and personnel record connected to his case, across ten categories, with prosecutors swearing in writing that nothing favorable to Murdaugh remains hidden. Judge Debra McCaslin hears arguments on that motion August 14, 2026. Tony Brueski breaks down what's actually being asked for, and why. The motion leans on the record of lead investigator David Owen, who led the Murdaugh case and, years earlier, a separate 2015 murder investigation a judge later quashed after ruling the state withheld favorable evidence for nearly a decade, including a mother's account Owen denied under oath.
