The South Carolina Supreme Court's unanimous reversal of Alex Murdaugh's murder convictions reset the legal record — and with it, the evidentiary question that a second jury will have to answer without twelve hours of financial crimes testimony supporting the prosecution's narrative. Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer approaches that question as a clean-slate exercise: strip the name from the file and evaluate what the physical evidence actually supports.Two victims were shot at the dog kennels on a remote hunting property. Two distinct firearms were used — a shotgun and a rifle. Neither weapon has been recovered. No blood was found on the defendant. The defense has consistently argued that no single shooter could have executed the crime as the state described it. Paul Murdaugh's prior legal entanglements — including a boating incident that resulted in a young woman's death — generated a documented set of unresolved grievances that investigators never fully pursued. Coffindaffer evaluates the two-weapon theory, examines where the physical scene points absent the financial motive framework, and assesses whether the prosecution's case survives substantive scrutiny under the evidentiary limitations the Supreme Court has imposed for retrial.The human dimension of the reversal is addressed through an exclusive interview with Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson — the Murdaugh family's housekeeper of twenty years and a key prosecution witness at the original trial. Simpson's testimony included her recollection of the shirt Alex Murdaugh wore the morning of June 7th, 2021, a wet towel found by the shower the following day, and her observations of Maggie Murdaugh's emotional state as Alex's financial situation deteriorated. The jury that heard her testimony convicted in under three hours.Upon learning of the Supreme Court's reversal, Simpson drove directly to Maggie Murdaugh's gravesite. In her first interview since the ruling, she addresses whether she remains the same witness she was in 2023, what Becky Hill's conduct cost the people closest to the case, and whether three years of reflection have altered what she is prepared to testify to at a second trial. The retrial's outcome may depend significantly on whether witnesses like Simpson present more forcefully under fair conditions than they did under compromised ones.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson spent twenty years inside the Murdaugh household. She fixed Alex's collar the morning of June 7th, 2021. She remembered the shirt. She found the wet towel by the shower the next day. She was the person Maggie cried to when Alex's finances were collapsing and nobody would explain why. She told all of it to a jury that convicted him in three hours. Then the Supreme Court erased the convictions — and Blanca drove straight to Maggie's grave without calling anyone first.In her first interview since the reversal, Blanca addresses the question that matters most heading into a retrial: is she the same witness she was in 2023? Three years of processing what she saw inside that family, what she knew before the killings, and what she's learned since — has any of it changed what she's prepared to say under oath? She talks about what she said to Maggie at the gravesite. Whether respecting the court's decision and believing Alex is guilty can exist in the same person. And what Becky Hill — a clerk writing a book about the trial while it was still happening — took from the people who loved Maggie and Paul.The investigative question runs parallel. Jennifer Coffindaffer approaches the Murdaugh case as a clean-slate thought experiment. Strip the name off the file. Two people shot at the dog kennels on a remote hunting property. Two different firearms — a shotgun and a rifle — neither recovered. No blood on the defendant. The defense has long argued no single shooter could have done it the way the state described. Paul Murdaugh's earlier legal troubles — including a boat crash that killed a young woman — left a trail of unresolved grudges.Coffindaffer examines where a scene like this points when you come at it with fresh eyes, what the two-weapon theory actually means for the prosecution, and whether the murder case the state built can survive scrutiny without the financial crimes testimony that carried it the first time. The conviction is gone. The question of who killed Maggie and Paul is open again. These two conversations are the starting point.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The prosecution should fear Blanca Simpson because she knows things they never asked about — and three years of processing the case has given her clarity they might not be ready for. The defense should fear her because she spent twenty years watching Alex Murdaugh operate, and the version of events they're selling doesn't match the man she knew.Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson is not a neutral party and she's never pretended to be. She loved Maggie. She cared for Paul. She believes Alex killed them. She said it in her book and she's said it on camera. But she's also someone who respects the legal process enough to say publicly that the overturned conviction was the right decision — because Becky Hill's behavior behind closed doors was enough to compromise the trial, regardless of what the evidence showed.That combination — conviction about guilt paired with respect for the process — makes Blanca the most compelling witness in the retrial.This three-part exclusive covers the full scope of what Blanca carries. Part 1 is the emotional and personal impact of the overturned verdict — the drive to Maggie's grave, the competing truths, and the fear of going through it all again. Part 2 is the evidence — what she saw that morning that was never explored on the stand, what Alex's behavior revealed, and why her memory of Moselle matters more now that the property no longer exists. Part 3 is the hardest question: did Alex act alone? Blanca's theory about Plan A and Plan B, the defense team's competing narrative, and what she believes investigators still haven't examined.A three-part exclusive on the Alex Murdaugh channel.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Dr. Phil sits down with Jim Griffin, attorney for disgraced South Carolina lawyer Alex Murdaugh, after a shocking court decision overturned Murdaugh's double murder conviction in the killings of his wife Maggie and son Paul. The South Carolina Supreme Court ruled Murdaugh did not receive a fair trial, citing improper jury influence and misconduct involving former court clerk Becky Hill — a dramatic development that has reignited national debate over one of America's most notorious murder cases. Now, Griffin joins Dr. Phil to break down the stunning reversal, the allegations of jury tampering, and why the defense believes the original verdict was deeply flawed. Dr. Phil presses Griffin on the evidence against Murdaugh, the public outrage surrounding the case, and what comes next as prosecutors prepare for a possible retrial. Could Alex Murdaugh really get another chance in court? And after everything the public has heard, is a fair trial even possible anymore?This episode is brought to you by TempraMed: Dr. Phil uncovers the hidden dangers tied to today's explosion of at-home injections — from insulin and GLP-1s to life-saving emergency medications.

We're starting today with Mandy's first-ever ODC complaint against a Horry County attorney named Bert von Herrmann who chose to post about her courtroom testimony with a misogynistic, body-shaming Facebook post — then shared a non-apology blaming bots, copying devices, and the "misuse of podcasts." Investigative journalists ⁠⁠Mandy Matney⁠⁠ and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠⁠ and attorney Eric Bland unpack why this isn't just one creep online, but part of a coordinated effort to threaten, litigate and berate women journalists into silence.  And we're back to the Murdaugh saga: a New Yorker piece peddling a far-fetched "troll theory" about whistleblower Christine Avery and booted juror Myra Crosby, plus Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin's new lawsuit against Becky Hill — which Eric argues is pure gamesmanship to soften Alex's image and weaponize discovery before the next trial.    ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References Mandy's Facebook Post about Bert Von Hermann's Smear

In 2023, a jury convicted former attorney Alex Murdaugh of the murders of his wife Maggie and his son Paul at the family's Moselle hunting lodge in Colleton County, South Carolina. In 2026, Murdaugh had his convictions overturned by the South Carolina Supreme Court over jury tampering concerns. Now, Murdaugh is suing Becky Hill, the former clerk of court accused of swaying jurors in the case.Check out our upcoming book events and get links to buy tickets here: https://murdersheetpodcast.com/eventsPre-order our book on Delphi here: https://bookshop.org/p/books/shadow-of-the-bridge-the-delphi-murders-and-the-dark-side-of-the-american-heartland-aine-cain/21866881?ean=9781639369232Or here: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Shadow-of-the-Bridge/Aine-Cain/9781639369232Or here: https://www.amazon.com/Shadow-Bridge-Murders-American-Heartland/dp/1639369236Join our Patreon here! https://www.patreon.com/c/murdersheetSupport The Murder Sheet by buying a t-shirt here: https://www.murdersheetshop.com/Check out more inclusive sizing and t-shirt and merchandising options here: https://themurdersheet.dashery.com/Send tips to murdersheet@gmail.com.The Murder Sheet is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The South Carolina Supreme Court erased Alex Murdaugh's murder conviction, and Blanca Simpson didn't pick up her phone. She drove to Maggie's grave and sat in silence.For twenty years, Blanca wasn't just cleaning the Murdaugh house — she was holding its secrets. She was the person Maggie trusted enough to pull into a room and shut the door. The person who heard Maggie say she'd give everything she had to make the thirty-million-dollar lawsuit disappear. The person who knew, just by looking at a pair of folded pajamas, that something was deeply wrong the morning after the murders.Blanca testified for three hours in 2023. She told the jury what she saw. What she noticed. What Alex tried to get her to un-see months later when he brought up a shirt she knew he wasn't wearing. That testimony helped put him away for life. And now it exists in legal limbo — not because it was wrong, but because a court clerk named Becky Hill decided to put her thumb on the scale while writing a book about the trial.In this exclusive sit-down, Blanca opens up about what it felt like to hear the ruling. What she said to Maggie at the grave. How she holds two competing truths — that Alex is guilty and that the process was broken. And whether she's ready to do it all again in a courtroom.Part 1 of a three-part Hidden Killers exclusive with the woman who knew the Murdaugh family from the inside.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Join Lisa, Matt, Jules, and Noa as they dive into the latest shocking twist in one of the most infamous true crime cases in recent history—the granting of a new trial for convicted killer Alex Murdaugh. Once found guilty of murdering his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, in a case that captivated the nation, Murdaugh is now seeking another chance in court. But this isn't just a story about murder. It's a story about power, privilege, political influence, and a legal dynasty that controlled a corner of South Carolina for generations. In this episode, we examine the allegations that helped secure Murdaugh's retrial, including claims that former court clerk Becky Hill improperly influenced jurors while allegedly pursuing a tell-all book and media opportunities connected to the case. We explore how these accusations have reignited debate about whether justice was truly served—or whether the system itself became compromised. The conversation goes beyond the courtroom as we unpack the extraordinary influence wielded by the Murdaugh family for decades and ask a difficult question: Would an average defendant ever receive the same opportunities and legal advantages? We also discuss how true crime documentaries, podcasts, social media, and internet sleuths have transformed modern criminal investigations and high-profile trials. Has public scrutiny improved accountability, or has it complicated the pursuit of justice? This episode explores the intersection of wealth, corruption, media influence, and the American justice system in a case that continues to raise more questions than answers. If you're fascinated by true crime podcasts, courtroom drama, criminal investigations, legal scandals, and the Murdaugh family saga, this is an episode you won't want to miss. *Please note all opinions in the show are our own and solely in regards to the specific case we are discussing in this episode* We made a one stop shop for all the Eye for an Eye links our listeners might want to check out whether its where to listen, our merch shop, all of our socials, our email, or ways to support the show,  we'd love for you to visit the link below!  https://msha.ke/eyeforeyepod/ Tired of Ads?

[Part One of Two] In Part One of this two-part episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠ break down James Lasdun's Becky Hill piece and explain why it reads less like journalism and more like the latest brick in Team Murdaugh's three-year 'narrative-laundering' project.  From the recycled "pizza conspiracy" to the false claim that Mark Tinsley has known Christine Avery since 2020, this is what happens when a writer for the New Yorker wanders onto a Murdaugh chessboard perhaps without realizing he's a playing piece.  Mandy and Liz connect the dots between Dick Harpootlian's subpoena-power threats, Greg Parker's attorneys, the Egg Lady juror's book written with a convicted felon, and the recycled smears designed to discredit the credible voices standing between Alex Murdaugh and an acquittal at his retrial. Receipts are coming in Part Two — out Friday. Get your pins ready...  Let's Dive in…

In the high-stakes world of legal drama, few cases have captured public attention like that of Alex Murdaugh. In this episode, Impact explores the crucial elements surrounding Alex Murdaugh's situation, his lawsuit against Becky Hill, the implications of a potential death penalty, and the ongoing controversies related to the boat crash outrage lawsuit. Joining the podcast is the Professor. Matt Siembieda, an attorney and law professor at Temple Law School.

For years, the murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh seemed like a closed case. Alex Murdaugh, once part of one of South Carolina's most powerful legal families, was convicted of killing his wife and son after jurors heard evidence prosecutors said they could not ignore, including the now infamous kennel video placing him near the crime scene minutes before the murders. But now, everything has changed. Alex Murdaugh's murder conviction has officially been overturned after shocking allegations involving jury influence by former court clerk Becky Hill. The South Carolina Supreme Court ruled that comments allegedly made to jurors during the trial may have compromised the fairness of the proceedings, throwing one of the most high-profile murder convictions in recent history into chaos. In today's recap, we break down the original murders, the financial crimes, the kennel video that changed everything, the misconduct allegations that overturned the conviction, and whether Alex Murdaugh could actually win a retrial.

Five days after the South Carolina Supreme Court unanimously overturned Alex Murdaugh's murder convictions, his defense team filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against Becky Hill. Seventeen pages. Section 1983. Six hundred thousand dollars in damages directed to the receivership. Jim Griffin said publicly the money isn't the point — the subpoena power is. Depositions. Sworn testimony. The ability to ask questions under oath that the state never bothered to ask.The Supreme Court ruled Hill put "her fingers on the scales of justice." The state prosecutor who handled Hill's criminal case said there wasn't enough evidence to charge her with jury tampering — four months before the Supreme Court ruled that's exactly what happened. The defense argues the state never treated Hill's conduct as the constitutional violation it was. This federal suit is designed to go where the state wouldn't.Eric Faddis breaks down what a Section 1983 claim requires — why it's typically aimed at law enforcement rather than a court clerk, what Murdaugh's team has to prove, and what civil discovery opens up that the criminal process never did. He explains why Griffin emphasized that no recovered funds go to Murdaugh personally — everything flows to the receivership.The broader question is why the retrial matters at all. Murdaugh is 57 and serving 40 years federal — he's never leaving prison regardless. But Maggie Murdaugh was 52 and Paul Murdaugh was 22. They were shot to death on their family's property, and as of the Supreme Court's ruling, nobody stands convicted of killing them. The guilty verdicts are erased. The life sentences are vacated. A financial crimes sentence is not a murder conviction by proxy. The constitutional obligation to answer who killed them hasn't been extinguished — it's been reset.People personally harmed by Murdaugh's financial crimes have said they'll go through the process again. The Attorney General is reportedly considering the death penalty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Alex Murdaugh is 57. He's serving 40 years federal. He's never getting out. So why spend millions on a retrial?Because Maggie Murdaugh was 52. Paul Murdaugh was 22. They were shot to death on their family's property. And right now, nobody stands convicted of killing them. The guilty verdicts are erased. The life sentences are vacated. Not because the evidence wasn't there — because an elected court clerk corrupted the process. A financial crimes sentence is not a murder conviction by proxy. Accepting it as one tells the families of Maggie and Paul that the question of who killed them doesn't matter enough to answer properly.Five days after the Supreme Court's unanimous reversal, Murdaugh's defense team sued Becky Hill in federal court. Seventeen pages. Section 1983. Six hundred thousand dollars in damages going to the receivership. Jim Griffin said the money isn't the point — the point is subpoena power, depositions, and dragging people under oath to answer what the state never asked. The Supreme Court ruled Hill put "her fingers on the scales of justice." The state prosecutor said there wasn't enough to charge her with jury tampering. Four months later, the Supreme Court said that's exactly what she did.Eric Faddis breaks down the lawsuit, what civil discovery gives the defense that the criminal process never did, and why Griffin stressed none of the money goes to Murdaugh personally. He explains what Section 1983 requires and whether the discovery could reveal Hill didn't act alone.Now the Attorney General is reportedly considering the death penalty. People Murdaugh stole from have said they'll testify again. The retrial isn't about adjusting a sentence he's already serving. It's about accountability for two people who were killed and a legal record that currently says nobody did it.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The state prosecutor who handled Becky Hill's criminal case said there wasn't enough evidence to charge her with jury tampering. Four months later, the South Carolina Supreme Court unanimously ruled that's exactly what she did. The state never treated her conduct as the constitutional violation the Supreme Court found it to be. It never followed the evidence wherever it led.So who's investigating? Alex Murdaugh's defense team. Five days after the reversal, they filed a seventeen-page federal civil rights lawsuit against Hill. Section 1983. Six hundred thousand dollars in damages directed to the receivership. Jim Griffin said publicly the money isn't the point — the subpoena power is. Depositions. Sworn testimony. The ability to ask questions under oath that the state never bothered to ask.Eric Faddis explains the mechanics — what Section 1983 requires, why it's unusual to aim it at a court clerk rather than law enforcement, and what civil discovery opens up that the criminal process never provided. He addresses why Griffin went out of his way to distance Murdaugh personally from the damages, and what the discovery process could reveal about whether Hill acted alone.The retrial question sits behind all of it. Murdaugh is 57 and serving 40 years federal — he's never leaving prison regardless. But Maggie was 52 and Paul was 22. They were killed on their own family's property, and the legal record currently says nobody has been convicted of doing it. The guilty verdicts are gone. The life sentences are vacated. A thief's sentence is not a murderer's accountability. The obligation to answer who killed them hasn't disappeared — it's been reset.The Attorney General is reportedly considering the death penalty. Financial crimes victims have said they'll testify again. The question of who killed Maggie and Paul Murdaugh deserves an answer that can't be challenged.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense counsel Jim Griffin confirmed at a press conference that unknown male DNA was recovered from beneath Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails during the original investigation and was never submitted to CODIS for comparison. The defense has indicated it intends to pursue that evidence at retrial.The DNA disclosure accompanies a broader catalog of alleged investigative deficiencies the defense plans to present to a second jury. Tire impressions at the crime scene were reportedly never properly processed. GPS data from Maggie Murdaugh's phone was allegedly overwritten. Crime scene integrity was compromised by weather exposure and foot traffic from family members prior to full processing. The medical examiner reportedly estimated time of death by touch rather than standard forensic methodology. These issues were largely subordinated during the first trial by twelve hours of financial crimes testimony — testimony the Supreme Court has now ordered to be sharply curtailed.Retrial preparation is extensive. The defense is reviewing an eight-thousand-page trial transcript — effectively an impeachment roadmap, as every prosecution witness is now locked into sworn testimony. New expert witnesses are being retained. The defense does not anticipate the retrial commencing before next year.Venue presents a contested procedural question. The defense is considering a change-of-venue motion, but the receiving jurisdiction must approximate Colleton County's demographic composition. Griffin noted that Richland and Charleston counties would likely fail that standard. Harpootlian cited the Pee Wee Gaskins precedent regarding individual voir dire necessitated by pretrial publicity saturation.The Attorney General's reported decision to place the death penalty on the table creates an additional procedural dimension — capital charges automatically trigger individual juror screening, which aligns with the defense's stated preference. The federal civil rights lawsuit against Becky Hill under Section 1983 continues to function as a parallel discovery mechanism. The defense has stated publicly that no plea agreement will be considered.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The defense team for Alex Murdaugh filed a federal civil rights action under 42 U.S.C. Section 1983 against former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill, alleging she deprived the defendant of his constitutional right to a fair trial before an untampered jury. The South Carolina Supreme Court's reversal already found her conduct warranted a new trial. The federal complaint is designed to use civil discovery mechanisms — depositions, document subpoenas, interrogatories, sworn testimony — to investigate the full scope of Hill's actions and determine whether she acted independently.The complaint highlights the removal of juror Myra Crosby during deliberations as a critical incident requiring deeper examination. Defense counsel Jim Griffin stated publicly that the central question is whether Hill was a lone actor or whether others had knowledge of her conduct. The suit seeks damages exceeding six hundred thousand dollars representing the cost of the original trial, with all recovered funds directed to the receivership — not the defendant.The defense has argued that the state's investigation of Hill's conduct was inadequate — that it never treated the interference as the constitutional violation the Supreme Court subsequently determined it to be, and never pursued the evidence to its conclusion. The federal action is structured to reach what state-level proceedings did not.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta and retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke examine the lawsuit's discovery strategy and its implications for the retrial.Separately, the defense's retrial strategy is coming into focus. The Supreme Court's published skepticism about twelve hours of financial crimes testimony creates a significant evidentiary constraint for the prosecution. The defense will invoke the court's own language to challenge every financial witness. The physical evidence stands on its own for the first time: no DNA connecting the defendant to the killings, no blood, both weapons unrecovered, no eyewitnesses, and a crime scene compromised by weather and foot traffic. Whether Murdaugh testifies again — likely compelled by the kennel video recording — becomes a fundamentally different calculation without weeks of financial testimony preceding it.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Jim Griffin confirmed at the defense press conference that unknown male DNA was recovered from under Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails and never run through CODIS. Physical evidence from the person who was fatally shot, documented in the investigation, sitting unmatched in an evidence file. The defense has plans for it at retrial.That revelation sits alongside a catalog of alleged SLED investigative failures the defense intends to weaponize in front of a second jury. Tire tracks at the crime scene that were never properly processed. GPS data from Maggie's phone that was overwritten. A crime scene that sat in the rain and was walked through by family members before it was secured. A coroner who estimated time of death by touch. None of this is new — but it was buried under twelve hours of financial crimes testimony the first time. That testimony is now sharply limited by the Supreme Court's ruling. The physical evidence has to stand on its own, and the defense is betting it can't.The retrial logistics are significant. Eight thousand pages of sworn trial testimony to review — a built-in impeachment roadmap the prosecution can't take back. Every witness who testified at trial one is now locked into their story. New expert witnesses are being retained. The defense doesn't expect the retrial before next year.Venue is contested. A change-of-venue motion is under consideration, but the receiving county must match Colleton's demographics — Griffin specifically noted Richland and Charleston likely wouldn't qualify. Harpootlian referenced the Pee Wee Gaskins case and the necessity of individual voir dire given the saturation of pretrial publicity statewide.The federal civil rights lawsuit against Becky Hill functions as a parallel investigation — civil discovery tools designed to determine whether Hill acted alone and what the state's investigation missed.

The defense team didn't file this lawsuit just to hold Becky Hill accountable. They filed it to investigate her. Civil discovery gives them tools the state never used — subpoenas, depositions, sworn testimony under penalty of perjury — and the complaint makes clear they intend to use every one of them.The Section 1983 claim alleges Hill deprived Alex Murdaugh of his constitutional right to a fair trial before an untampered jury. The South Carolina Supreme Court already found her conduct warranted reversal. Jim Griffin raised the central question at the press conference: was Becky Hill a lone wolf? Or did someone else know what was happening during those deliberations? The complaint highlights the suspicious removal of juror Myra Crosby as a critical incident the defense believes has never been adequately examined. The suit seeks more than six hundred thousand dollars in damages tied to the original trial's cost, all flowing to the receivership — none to Murdaugh personally.The defense argues the state never thoroughly investigated Hill's conduct, never treated it as the constitutional violation the Supreme Court subsequently found it to be, and never followed the evidence to its logical end. This federal action is designed to reach what the state wouldn't touch.The lawsuit sits alongside the broader defense strategy for trial two. The Supreme Court's ruling created an evidentiary firewall around the financial testimony — clear skepticism about the twelve-hour presentation and instructions to sharply limit it at retrial. The defense will challenge every financial witness armed with the court's own published language. Behind that firewall, the physical case stands exposed: no DNA on the defendant, no blood, both weapons still missing, no eyewitnesses, and a crime scene compromised from the start. The question of whether Murdaugh takes the stand again looms — the kennel video recording likely forces his hand, but the calculation shifts dramatically without weeks of financial crimes testimony preceding it.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Unknown male DNA was found under Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails. It was never run through CODIS. Jim Griffin said it at the press conference like he'd been waiting to — physical evidence from the person who was fatally shot, collected by investigators, documented in the case file, and never matched through the federal database. The defense has plans for it. They're not hiding that.But untested DNA is only one piece. The defense laid out a list of alleged SLED failures that got buried under twelve hours of financial crimes testimony the first time. Tire tracks never processed. GPS data from Maggie's phone overwritten. A crime scene sitting in the rain while family members walked through it. A coroner who estimated time of death by touch. Every one of those gaps is now exposed because the Supreme Court stripped away the financial testimony that filled them.The retrial is going to be massive. Eight thousand pages of locked-in trial testimony gives the defense a built-in impeachment roadmap — every prosecution witness is stuck with what they said under oath the first time. New expert witnesses are being brought in. The defense doesn't expect the retrial before next year and says there will never be a plea deal.Venue is already contested. The defense is considering a change-of-venue motion, but the receiving county has to match Colleton's demographics. The death penalty threat from the Attorney General may have backfired — capital charges automatically trigger individual voir dire, which is exactly what Harpootlian wanted. The Becky Hill federal lawsuit gives the defense civil discovery tools to investigate whether she acted alone during the first trial.And the question that hung over the entire press conference: if Alex Murdaugh didn't do it, why is there no alternative theory after all these years? The defense says SLED destroyed the evidence trail. That's an answer.

Alex Murdaugh's defense team just filed a federal lawsuit against Becky Hill — and the point isn't money. It's answers. The Section 1983 civil rights claim alleges Hill deprived Murdaugh of a fair trial before an untampered jury. The Supreme Court already found her conduct warranted throwing out the conviction. Now the defense wants to use civil discovery — depositions, subpoenas, sworn testimony — to find out everything the state never bothered to investigate.Jim Griffin put it plainly at the press conference: was Becky Hill a lone wolf? Or did someone else know what was happening during those deliberations? The complaint flags the removal of juror Myra Crosby — the egg lady — as an incident that's never been adequately explained. The suit seeks more than six hundred thousand dollars in damages tied to the cost of the original trial. None of it goes to Murdaugh. Every dollar flows to the receivership.The defense argues the state never treated Hill's interference as the constitutional violation it was. Never followed the evidence wherever it led. This federal suit is built to go where the state wouldn't.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta and Robin Dreeke break down what the discovery process can actually force into the open — and whether what Hill did during that trial could have happened without anyone noticing.On the retrial side, the Supreme Court handed the defense a roadmap. The financial evidence firewall changes everything. The court expressed clear skepticism about twelve hours of stolen-money testimony, and the defense will fight to exclude every piece armed with the court's own words. Behind that wall, the physical case is thin: no DNA on Murdaugh, no blood, both weapons missing, no eyewitnesses, and a crime scene that was compromised from the start. Those gaps got buried the first time. They won't get buried again. The question now is whether Murdaugh takes the stand — the kennel video recording likely forces it — and whether that gamble plays differently when the jury hasn't spent weeks hearing about stolen money first.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Attorney General reportedly put the death penalty on the table for Alex Murdaugh's retrial. The defense might actually welcome it. A capital case automatically triggers individual voir dire — every potential juror screened one on one — which is exactly the process Harpootlian demanded at the press conference. The prosecution may have armed the defense with their strongest jury selection mechanism while signaling toughness for a governor's race.Robin Dreeke and criminal defense attorney Bob Motta break down the behavioral and strategic dynamics of a retrial that's being shaped by politics and evidence failures simultaneously. The defense press conference revealed that unknown male DNA was recovered from under Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails and never run through CODIS. That's physical evidence from the person who was fatally shot, documented by investigators, and left unmatched. The defense has plans for it at retrial.The alleged SLED failures are now center stage. Tire tracks never properly processed. GPS data on Maggie's phone overwritten. A crime scene compromised by rain and foot traffic. These gaps were overshadowed by financial testimony the first time — testimony the Supreme Court has now sharply limited. Without it, the physical case has to carry the prosecution's theory on its own.The Becky Hill lawsuit adds another layer. The Section 1983 federal claim functions as a discovery vehicle — subpoenas, depositions, sworn testimony — all designed to determine whether Hill acted alone during the first trial. Everything uncovered feeds directly into the criminal defense before retrial begins.And the question nobody at the press conference asked: if Alex Murdaugh didn't do it, and the defense has had years, why is there no alternative theory? The defense says SLED destroyed the evidence trail. That answer is worth hearing. The silence around it is worth hearing too. Eight thousand pages of locked-in testimony. New expert witnesses. A retrial that won't happen before next year. The defense says there will never be a plea deal.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The behavioral question at the center of the Becky Hill lawsuit isn't whether she tampered with the jury. The Supreme Court already answered that. The question is whether she did it alone — and whether the people around her knew.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta and retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke examine the federal civil rights claim Murdaugh's defense team filed against Hill. The Section 1983 lawsuit alleges she deprived Murdaugh of his constitutional right to a fair trial. But the real purpose is the discovery process. Civil subpoenas, depositions, sworn testimony — tools the state never deployed. Jim Griffin raised it directly at the press conference: was Becky Hill a lone wolf? The complaint flags the removal of juror Myra Crosby as an incident that demands scrutiny the state's investigation never provided.Dreeke brings the behavioral lens. What does Hill's pattern of conduct — the perjury conviction, the book deal timing, the behavior the Supreme Court documented — reveal about whether she was operating independently or with awareness from others? Motta addresses the legal mechanics: what discovery actually looks like in a Section 1983 action, what Hill can be compelled to answer, and how the defense can use anything uncovered in the civil case to build leverage heading into the criminal retrial.The defense argues the state never treated Hill's conduct as the constitutional violation the Supreme Court ultimately found it to be. This federal suit goes where the state wouldn't.On the retrial itself, the defense strategy is taking shape. The financial evidence firewall created by the Supreme Court's ruling changes the entire landscape. No DNA, no blood, both weapons missing, no eyewitnesses, a compromised crime scene — those forensic gaps were buried under financial testimony the first time. Now they're the case. The biggest unknown: does Murdaugh take the stand again, and does the kennel video recording leave him any choice?Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The South Carolina Supreme Court reversed Alex Murdaugh's murder convictions on procedural grounds — finding the trial judge misapplied the burden of proof, violated Rule 606(b) by probing jurors' mental processes, and credited testimony the court deemed inadmissible. A retrial has been ordered under significantly narrowed evidentiary parameters. The central unknown heading into that proceeding is Buster Murdaugh.Buster testified for the defense at the original trial. He has since reportedly distanced himself from Alex — minimal prison contact, a quiet marriage, and according to sources, open anger about the retrial. He has allegedly characterized his father as a "selfish old man." Jennifer Coffindaffer and retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke examine whether the prosecution can leverage that fracture and what legal mechanisms exist to compel testimony about private conversations between father and son after the killings. Coffindaffer also identifies a structural weakness in the State's family annihilation theory: if Alex allegedly killed to eliminate exposure, the survival of Buster undermines the logic of the motive as constructed.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis provides the comprehensive legal breakdown. The Supreme Court ruled twelve and a half hours of financial crimes testimony was excessive and ordered sharp limitations at retrial. Faddis maps what survives — the CFO confrontation and the opposing attorney's hearing that form the motive timeline — and what gets excluded. He addresses the unresolved evidentiary challenges carried forward from the direct appeal: the firearm analysis, the blue raincoat, the gunshot residue testimony, and the iPhone demonstration. He also examines the retrial complications — Alex Murdaugh's locked-in testimony, Becky Hill's perjury conviction as a defense weapon, and the venue and jury selection challenges both sides face in a case with this level of public saturation.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three years of sealed records. Denied FOIA requests. A state investigation that found nothing — followed by a Supreme Court ruling that found everything. Something doesn't add up in the Murdaugh jury tampering case, and the files that could explain it are locked behind a protective order that may have just lost its justification.In this episode, I trace the full arc from Becky Hill's pre-trial book deal planning to the fabricated Facebook post that allegedly got the one undecided juror removed on the morning of deliberations — swinging the verdict from a likely hung jury to a unanimous conviction in three hours. I follow the anonymous email that started the chain of events to its alleged source, and I look at who had financial incentives aligned with a guilty verdict beyond just one clerk who wanted a lake house.The defense now has subpoena power through a federal civil rights lawsuit against Hill. The egg juror's attorney filed a new motion the same afternoon demanding the sealed investigative records be released. And Murdaugh's attorneys are publicly asking the question that prosecutors apparently never pursued: was Hill acting alone, or was she the part of this that was too obvious to keep hidden? The sealed files may hold the answer — and that might be exactly why they're still sealed.Links:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Becky Hill didn't just make careless comments to Murdaugh's jury — the Supreme Court found she fabricated evidence to remove a juror she believed favored the defense. But was she the only one pulling strings?I've been digging into the financial trail and the network of connections that surrounded this verdict, and the lone-wolf explanation is getting harder to defend. Hill was planning a book deal before the trial started. A colleague testified Hill said a guilty verdict would sell more copies. The anonymous email that triggered the removal of the jury's apparent holdout allegedly came from someone connected to the Murdaugh Murders podcast network and a trial attorney with a financial stake in the outcome. The Facebook post cited as grounds for the removal was, according to a sworn affidavit from the man supposedly behind it, completely fabricated.And here's what keeps nagging at me: investigators said there wasn't enough evidence to charge Hill with tampering. Five months later, the Supreme Court said there was enough to overturn the conviction entirely. Either the investigation missed what five justices found obvious, or it was never designed to look past Hill. The sealed files could answer that. But every attempt to unseal them has been blocked — until now. A new motion and a federal lawsuit with subpoena power are about to force the question into the open.Links:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

 Buster Murdaugh testified for the defense at his father's murder trial and told a jury Alex wasn't capable of killing Maggie and Paul. Then Alex was convicted, and Buster disappeared. Three years of near-silence. Barely any prison calls. A quiet marriage. A life built at distance. Now the South Carolina Supreme Court has reversed the convictions, the retrial is approaching, and sources say Buster isn't relieved — he's reportedly angry, allegedly calling Alex a "selfish old man."Jennifer Coffindaffer and retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke dig into what that anger signals and whether the prosecution can use it. If Buster's loyalty has fractured, everything shifts. He knows what Alex told him privately after the killings. The question is whether any legal mechanism can force those conversations into the open. Coffindaffer also raises a problem embedded in the State's own motive theory: if the case is family annihilation, why is Buster alive? Maggie wouldn't have believed a story about Paul's death if Buster were dead too. That gap sits at the center of the State's narrative before opening statements begin.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis addresses the legal architecture of the retrial itself. The Supreme Court found the original trial judge placed the burden on Murdaugh instead of the State and violated Rule 606(b) by probing jurors' mental processes. Twelve and a half hours of financial crimes testimony was deemed excessive. Faddis identifies what survives in a second trial — the narrow exposure timeline anchoring the motive theory — and what gets stripped out. He also examines Alex Murdaugh's locked-in testimony, the unresolved evidentiary challenges from the direct appeal, and the strategic nightmare of venue and jury selection with Becky Hill's criminal conviction now on the record.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Myra Crosby sat through six weeks of testimony. The judge praised her as an excellent juror. She was undecided. And on the morning deliberations were set to begin, she was removed based on allegations that now appear to have been fabricated. Three years later, the Supreme Court confirmed what Crosby has been saying all along: Becky Hill misrepresented information to the court to get her off the panel.But this episode goes deeper than Hill. I follow the anonymous email that triggered Crosby's removal to its alleged source — someone reportedly connected to the Murdaugh Murders podcast network and attorney Mark Tinsley, who had a direct financial stake in a guilty verdict through the boat crash litigation. I examine the financial timeline showing Hill was planning her book and telling colleagues a conviction would boost sales before the trial even started. And I break down the central contradiction at the heart of this case: a state investigation that found insufficient evidence for tampering charges, followed by a Supreme Court that looked at the same record and overturned the conviction.The sealed files from that investigation — still hidden despite the conviction being thrown out — could reveal whether Hill was operating alone or whether Crosby's removal was part of a coordinated effort. A new motion to unseal them was just filed, and the defense's federal lawsuit gives them tools to dig deeper than anyone has before.Links:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Buster Murdaugh sat behind his father every single day of that first trial. He took the stand and told a jury Alex wasn't capable of this. Then Alex got convicted — and Buster disappeared. Three years of barely any prison calls. A quiet marriage. A life built as far from the Murdaugh name as he could manage. Now the convictions have been reversed and the retrial is coming, and sources say Buster isn't grateful. He's reportedly furious. He allegedly called Alex a "selfish old man."That's the son who was supposed to be the defense's emotional anchor. If his loyalty has cracked, both sides know it changes everything. Jennifer Coffindaffer and Robin Dreeke break down what Buster's anger means for the retrial — and whether the prosecution can use it. Coffindaffer raises the question buried inside the State's own theory: if this was family annihilation, why is Buster still alive? Maggie wouldn't have believed a story about Paul's death if Buster were gone too. That hole sits right in the middle of the motive the State has to sell a second jury.Then there's the insurance scheme — Alex allegedly staging his own shooting so Buster could collect ten million dollars. A father's desperate love or a con man using his last remaining son as a prop? A jury can read it either way, and both readings cut deep.Eric Faddis breaks down what the Supreme Court's reversal actually changed for the retrial — the evidence limits, Alex's locked-in testimony, Becky Hill's criminal conviction, and the strategic choice both sides have to make before anything else.

Buster Murdaugh spent the entire first trial projecting loyalty — sitting behind Alex every day, testifying that his father wasn't capable of killing Maggie and Paul. Then three years of near-total silence. Now that the South Carolina Supreme Court has reversed the convictions and a retrial looms, the behavioral picture has shifted completely. Sources say Buster is reportedly furious, allegedly calling Alex a "selfish old man." That's not the posture of someone preparing to defend his father again.Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke and Jennifer Coffindaffer break down what Buster's withdrawal pattern actually signals — what three years of distance, minimal prison contact, and a quiet marriage say about where his allegiance sits heading into a second trial. Coffindaffer raises the structural flaw in the State's family annihilation theory that nobody else is asking about: if Alex allegedly killed to protect secrets, why is Buster alive? Maggie wouldn't have believed a story about Paul's death if Buster were dead too. That contradiction doesn't just weaken the motive — it reshapes how a jury processes the entire case.Then there's the insurance scheme — Alex allegedly staging his own roadside shooting so Buster could collect ten million dollars. Was that a father's warped devotion or a con man using his own son as a tool? Both readings are available to a jury and both cut in different directions.Eric Faddis rounds out the analysis with the legal framework. The Supreme Court's reversal found procedural violations and excessive financial crimes testimony. Faddis maps the retrial terrain: what evidence survives, what gets cut, how Alex's locked-in testimony constrains the defense, and what Becky Hill's criminal conviction means for jury selection.

Can't get enough of Alex Murdaugh? Well you are in luck. In a decision that was both shocking and not surprising, the Supreme Court of South Carolina overturned Murduck's conviction, ruling that the infamous courtroom deputy Becky Hill tampered with the jury. What's next for Murdawg? Will the state retry him? Will Alec stay in prison? Or will Ellick escape justice, at least for the murders of his wife and son?

Alex Murdaugh's defense team filed a seventeen-page Section 1983 civil rights complaint against former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill in federal court in Charleston — five days after the South Carolina Supreme Court unanimously overturned his murder convictions based on what the justices called "shocking jury interference." The complaint seeks six hundred thousand dollars in compensatory and punitive damages, but Jim Griffin told reporters none of it would go to Murdaugh personally.Eric Faddis explains the legal mechanics — what Section 1983 requires, what civil discovery gives the defense that the criminal process never did, and what "peeling the onion" actually looks like when you have subpoena power and deposition authority aimed at a government official who's already pleaded guilty to misconduct, obstruction, and perjury.He addresses the gap between the state prosecutor telling the court there wasn't enough evidence to charge Hill with jury tampering and the Supreme Court ruling four months later that tampering is exactly what happened. He examines Dick Harpootlian's public question about whether Hill was a "lone wolf" and what that signal means on day one of a federal lawsuit.And he connects the civil case to the criminal retrial — where the AG is openly considering the death penalty and depositions from the federal suit could reshape the landscape before a single juror is seated.Footer Links:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Here's what doesn't add up. The state prosecutor who handled Becky Hill's criminal case told the court there wasn't enough evidence to charge her with jury tampering. Four months later, the South Carolina Supreme Court ruled unanimously that Hill engaged in "shocking jury interference" and placed "her fingers on the scales of justice." She'd already pleaded guilty to misconduct, obstruction, and perjury. But the tampering charge — the one that actually describes what the Supreme Court says she did — was never filed.Eric Faddis spent years as a prosecutor and now practices defense. He explains how that gap happens, what it means, and whether it suggests something more than a difference of legal opinion.Alex Murdaugh's defense team isn't waiting to find out. Five days after the Supreme Court ruling, they filed a federal Section 1983 lawsuit against Hill personally — seeking six hundred thousand dollars in damages and, more importantly, the civil discovery tools the criminal process never gave them. Subpoenas. Depositions. The right to drag people under oath and ask questions nobody in the state system has asked.Dick Harpootlian already said the quiet part out loud: is Becky Hill a "lone wolf"? The only people trying to find out are working for the man she allegedly helped convict.Footer Links:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Becky Hill pled guilty to misconduct in office, obstruction of justice, and perjury. The South Carolina Supreme Court said she engaged in shocking jury interference that forced them to overturn Alex Murdaugh's double murder conviction unanimously. Her sentence was probation and community service. Let that math sit for a second.The Murdaugh defense held a press conference to announce a federal lawsuit against Hill — because in their view, the state has failed to hold her accountable for what she did. And the facts make that argument hard to dismiss. A clerk of court who pled guilty to lying under oath, who the state's highest court found corrupted a murder trial for personal financial gain, who allegedly told jurors not to believe the defense and to watch the defendant's body language — and she walked away with community service. The lawsuit seeks damages and discovery. The defense wants to know if she acted alone. They want depositions. They want subpoenas. They want answers the state never pursued.Meanwhile, the AG is now considering the death penalty for the man whose trial his own office failed to protect from a corrupt clerk. He called Hill's conduct “ultimately harmless.” The Supreme Court disagreed so strongly they threw out the entire conviction. The defense says the AG is running for governor and making decisions accordingly. Whether that's fair or strategic framing, the gap between calling jury interference harmless and seeking execution for the defendant it harmed is difficult to bridge.Alex Murdaugh is not a sympathetic figure. He's a convicted financial criminal who stole millions from vulnerable people. But the system that tried him for murder failed on multiple levels, and the people responsible for that failure have barely been held to account. This episode asks why.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Just when it seemed like the Murdaugh saga might finally be slowing down, the case exploded again. Alex Murdaugh’s murder conviction has been overturned, but investigative journalist Mandy Matney says that does not change what she believes: Alex killed Maggie and Paul. Mandy joins Elisa Donovan to break down the shocking South Carolina Supreme Court ruling, the Becky Hill jury controversy, why she believes the kennel video and Alex’s lies still point straight to guilt, and why this retrial may force witnesses, victims, and South Carolina itself to relive the trauma all over again.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Murdaugh defense filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against Becky Hill before the retrial has even been assigned a judge. They told reporters it's about accountability and investigation. It is both of those things. It's also a calculated move to arm themselves for the murder retrial with tools no criminal defendant normally gets this early.The lawsuit gives the defense subpoena power and deposition authority over Hill before the criminal case goes back to a jury. Everything they uncover in civil discovery — whether Hill acted alone, who else was involved, what SLED knew about the anonymous email targeting juror Myra Crosby, whether Hill pulled this in other trials — feeds directly into the retrial defense. The six hundred thousand dollars in damages makes the headline. The discovery is the weapon. And the defense is asking the question the state never bothered to investigate: was Becky Hill really working alone?Hill pled guilty to misconduct in office, obstruction of justice, and perjury. The Supreme Court found her conduct constituted shocking jury interference that denied Murdaugh his constitutional right to a fair trial. Her sentence was probation and community service. The AG who prosecuted Murdaugh called that same conduct “ultimately harmless” and is now considering the death penalty. The defense says that's politics, not prosecution. The contradiction is hard to explain away either way.This episode breaks down the strategy behind every move at that press conference — including the one the defense didn't advertise. The death penalty threat, if pursued, would trigger individual voir dire, handing the defense exactly the jury screening process they demanded. What looked like the AG's power play may turn out to be the defense's biggest advantage.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Andrea Canning sits down with Dateline producers Carol Gable and Haylee Barber to discuss Craig Melvin's latest episode, “In the Matter of Alex Murdaugh.” In June of 2021, the wife and son of prominent South Carolina attorney Alex Murdaugh were found shot to death in the back of their family estate. One year later, Murdaugh was indicted for their murders. He pleaded not guilty. His trial began in January 2023 and was labeled "the trial of the decade" by local news outlets. A jury found him guilty, and he was sentenced to serve life in prison. But last week, the South Carolina State Supreme Court overturned the convictions citing conduct on the part of court clerk Becky Hill that denied Murdaugh a fair trial. Haylee and Carol share what it was like to learn such major news on a case they've been covering for years. Andrea shares an extra clip of Craig discussing the overturned verdict with Murdaugh's defense attorneys. Plus, Haylee and Carol answer your questions from social media.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/aBJJaSNLrg0  Following the May 13, 2026, unanimous decision by the South Carolina Supreme Court to overturn Alex Murdaugh's double murder conviction due to improper jury influence by former clerk of court Rebecca "Becky" Hill, the legal battle has intensified with both a pending retrial and a new federal civil rights lawsuit. South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson announced on May 18, 2026, that his office will "aggressively seek to retry" Murdaugh and that all legal options, including the death penalty, are currently being considered. Simultaneously, Murdaugh's defense team filed a lawsuit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, alleging that Hill's actions deprived Murdaugh of his constitutional right to a fair trial for her own personal financial gain, seeking at least $600,000 in compensatory damages to cover the costs of the original defense. While the defense remains optimistic about a future acquittal and intends to explore unexamined evidence—such as unknown male DNA found under Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails—they have clarified that a retrial is unlikely to occur before the end of 2025.

When the South Carolina Supreme Court granted Alex Murdaugh a new trial, it confirmed what the defense had argued for months — Becky Hill's conduct compromised the verdict. But the court's ruling only opened a door. The federal lawsuit the defense just filed is designed to walk through it.The Section 1983 claim targets Hill directly, alleging she deprived Murdaugh of a constitutional right that is supposed to be untouchable: a fair trial before an impartial, untampered jury. This is not a symbolic filing. It comes with the full weight of federal civil discovery — the power to compel testimony, demand documents, and put people under oath.The defense laid out their goals with unusual specificity. They want to know exactly what Hill did. They want to know if anyone else was involved. They want answers about the removal of juror Myra Crosby — whose departure from the jury during deliberations has never been satisfactorily explained. And they want the state to answer for what they describe as a failure to investigate any of it.More than six hundred thousand dollars in damages are on the table, tied to the cost of the first trial. The defense took pains to clarify that any recovered money goes to the receivership — Murdaugh does not benefit personally.Tony Brueski, criminal defense attorney and Defense Diaries host Bob Motta, and retired FBI Chief of the Behavioral Analysis Program Robin Dreeke discuss the lawsuit, the unanswered questions it targets, and why the investigation the state never conducted may happen anyway — just in a different courtroom.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Murdaugh defense team came out swinging at Attorney General Alan Wilson — and the accusation they leveled is not one that gets tossed around lightly. They called the death penalty announcement vindictive prosecution.Here is what that means: when a prosecutor escalates charges not because the evidence supports it, but because the defendant exercised a constitutional right — like winning an appeal — the law treats it as retaliation. Harpootlian argued that is exactly what happened here. Murdaugh's conviction was overturned. And the state's response was not to accept the court's ruling and retry the case. It was to announce the death penalty.Harpootlian asked the question that exposes the logic problem in the state's position: what does Wilson know now that he did not know when he originally chose not to seek the death penalty? The facts of the crime have not changed. No new evidence surfaced. The only thing that changed is that Murdaugh won.The defense went further. They accused Wilson of running his prosecution through political consultants rather than relying on the career prosecutors who staff his office. Harpootlian suggested that the attorneys who actually understand courtrooms are not the ones driving the bus.And they landed a second blow: the AG's office, they said, never properly investigated Becky Hill's conduct. The statute makes jury tampering a crime. Hill pled guilty to misconduct. And the state apparently saw no reason to look deeper.Tony Brueski, criminal defense attorney Bob Motta of Defense Diaries, and retired FBI Chief of the Behavioral Analysis Program Robin Dreeke unpack the accusations, the doctrine, and what it means for the prosecution's strategy heading into the retrial.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

One press conference. Three significant developments. The Murdaugh defense team filed a federal civil rights lawsuit, accused the Attorney General of vindictive prosecution, and revealed evidence the prosecution may wish had stayed buried.The lawsuit against Becky Hill is a Section 1983 claim alleging she deprived Murdaugh of his right to a fair trial. The defense wants civil discovery to investigate what Hill did and whether she had accomplices. They highlighted the suspicious removal of juror Myra Crosby and sought over six hundred thousand dollars in damages — all directed to the receivership, not to Murdaugh personally.Harpootlian aimed squarely at Attorney General Alan Wilson. He accused Wilson of seeking the death penalty as retaliation for Murdaugh winning his appeal — the legal definition of vindictive prosecution. He asked what new evidence justifies the escalation when nothing about the case has changed. He accused the AG of consulting political advisors instead of career prosecutors.Then the retrial details. The defense does not expect a trial this year. Preparation includes reviewing eight thousand pages of transcript, retaining new experts, and scrubbing all discovery materials. They are pursuing a venue change constrained by demographic requirements that eliminate Richland and Charleston. Individual voir dire will make jury selection a long, difficult process.The evidence revelation that may matter most: unknown male DNA under Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails was collected and never run through the CODIS database. The defense intends to use it. They also catalogued SLED's investigative failures — unprocessed tire tracks, overwritten GPS data, incomplete scene work.Tony Brueski, criminal defense attorney Bob Motta of Defense Diaries, and retired FBI Chief of the Behavioral Analysis Program Robin Dreeke discuss every major development. No plea deal is on the table. The defense was unequivocal.

A federal civil rights lawsuit against a former clerk of court. That is where the Murdaugh case stands right now — and the implications go far beyond one defendant.Murdaugh's attorneys filed a Section 1983 claim against Becky Hill, the former Colleton County Clerk whose conduct during the original trial led the South Carolina Supreme Court to order a new trial. The claim is straightforward: Hill deprived Murdaugh of his constitutional right to a fair trial by tampering with the jury. But the strategy behind the filing is anything but simple.This lawsuit is built for discovery. The defense team wants subpoenas and depositions — the tools that only civil litigation provides — to investigate what Hill actually did and whether she had assistance. Griffin posed the question directly: did she act alone? The state never tried to find out. The defense intends to.The complaint zeroes in on the removal of juror Myra Crosby during deliberations. The circumstances around her dismissal have never been adequately explained, and the defense treats it as exhibit A in a pattern of interference that tainted the entire proceeding.The damages sought exceed six hundred thousand dollars, representing the cost of the first trial. Murdaugh's lawyers made a point of clarifying that none of that money touches their client. It goes to the receivership — a distinction they clearly felt was important to make publicly.Tony Brueski, criminal defense attorney and Defense Diaries host Bob Motta, and retired FBI Chief of the Behavioral Analysis Program Robin Dreeke examine the lawsuit, the discovery strategy, and what the defense believes the state deliberately left uninvestigated.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

That is the question Dick Harpootlian asked at the defense press conference — and it is the question Attorney General Alan Wilson has not answered.Five years ago, the state prosecuted Alex Murdaugh for murder and did not seek the death penalty. The evidence was what it was. The facts were what they were. Then Murdaugh won his appeal on jury tampering grounds, and suddenly Wilson announced the death penalty was on the table. Harpootlian wants to know what changed — because the evidence did not.The defense labeled it vindictive prosecution. That is not a casual accusation. It is a constitutional claim that says a prosecutor cannot escalate punishment because a defendant successfully exercised a legal right. If the defense can show that the death penalty decision was retaliatory rather than evidence-based, it could be struck down before the retrial even begins.Harpootlian also took aim at the internal dynamics of the AG's office. He accused Wilson of ignoring the career prosecutors — the experienced trial attorneys who handle cases daily — and instead relying on political advisors. He said Wilson is probably talking to political consultants, not lawyers.The defense piled on with a separate criticism: the AG's office failed to investigate Becky Hill's alleged jury tampering, despite it being a crime under the statute. Hill pled guilty to perjury and misconduct. The defense says the investigation should have gone further and Wilson's office dropped it.Tony Brueski, criminal defense attorney Bob Motta of Defense Diaries, and retired FBI Chief of the Behavioral Analysis Program Robin Dreeke examine the vindictive prosecution doctrine, what it takes to prove it, and why the defense put the AG on notice publicly.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On Friday, Mandy took the stand in York for a civil contempt hearing that, by any measure, never should have happened — while the co-defendants actually trying to depose Gregg Roman (the nucleus of the Parker conspiracy case) had to beg the judge to even hear their motion. The contrast is staggering. Investigative journalists ⁠⁠Mandy Matney⁠⁠ and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠⁠ and attorney Eric Bland unpack what really went down in that courtroom: Meredith Bannon's surgical lawyering, Becky Lindahl's compelling missing-affidavit argument, the 6 year harassment campaign, a felon's escalating behavior and the sea of supporters in pink who made the day bearable.  Then they turn to Wednesday's 5-0 Murdaugh murder conviction reversal — Becky Hill as the designated punching bag, Dick and Jim on the Today Show, and the privilege only a Murdaugh gets to enjoy. ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References Show your support of Eric Bland to the ODC
