The nation's highest court is adopting new technology to prevent conflicts of interest. The Supreme Court says it is now using newly developed software to assist in identifying potential conflicts for the justices. The software will run automated recusal checks that compare information about parties and attorneys in a case with lists created by each Justice's chamber. The Court's Office of Information Technology worked with the Legal Office and the Clerk's Office to design the technology. New court rules to support use of the software will take effect March 16.

WORT 89.9FM Madison · A Good Clerk is Hard to Find Alex Shur (photo by Nicholas Wootton) Between April, 2025 and February, 2026, thirteen towns, villages and cities in Wausau County, Wisconsin lost their municipal clerks due to retirement, only to have the new replacements resign within a few months. That kind of turnover wreaks havoc on all kinds of functions for small communities, ranging from issuing dog licenses to running local, state and federal elections. Votebeat Wisconsin's Alex Shur has dug into why nobody wants to be the town clerk anymore, and he joined the Monday Buzz on February 23, 2026.

Alex Murdaugh's fight for a new trial just reached South Carolina's highest court—and the justices came with hard questions.On February 11, 2026, the South Carolina Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Murdaugh's appeal of his double-murder conviction. The hearing split into two phases: first, the alleged jury tampering by former Colleton County Clerk Becky Hill; second, whether the trial itself was fair given the evidence admitted against him.Chief Justice John Kittredge set the tone early, calling Hill a "rogue clerk" and pressing prosecutor Creighton Waters on the scope of financial crimes evidence. "The granular detail and the expansiveness of which everything under the sun was allowed is arguably problematic," Kittredge said. Justice George James questioned the "logical connection" between Murdaugh's financial crimes and the murders of Maggie and Paul.Waters attempted to frame Murdaugh's financial desperation as the boiling point—at one point invoking the movie "Fargo" to illustrate his argument. Justice John Few wasn't having it: "I haven't seen 'Fargo'—get to the point."Defense attorneys Harpootlian, Griffin, and Barber argued that Hill's comments to jurors—including "watch his body language" and warnings not to be "fooled"—constituted jury tampering that denied Murdaugh a fair trial. They also challenged cell phone evidence, a blue raincoat with gunshot residue, and the overwhelming emphasis on financial crimes as prejudicial.The state maintained the conviction was based on "overwhelming evidence" and that Hill's remarks were "fleeting" and "largely neutral." But the justices pushed back repeatedly.No decision was issued from the bench. The court will deliberate privately with no deadline for a ruling.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The South Carolina Supreme Court just held oral arguments in Alex Murdaugh's appeal—and it did not go well for the prosecution.On February 11, 2026, all five justices heard arguments on whether Murdaugh deserves a new trial for the murders of his wife Maggie and son Paul. What unfolded was a masterclass in appellate pressure. Chief Justice John Kittredge didn't mince words, calling former Colleton County Clerk Becky Hill a "rogue clerk" and questioning how a court official could attempt to influence a verdict for personal gain. He pressed prosecutor Creighton Waters on why the state allowed "everything under the sun" when it came to financial crimes evidence, calling the scope "arguably problematic."Justice George James admitted he was "struggling with the logical connection" between Murdaugh's financial misdeeds and the murders. Justice Letitia Verdin pushed on the limits of motive evidence. And in one memorable moment, Waters tried to invoke the movie "Fargo" to explain Murdaugh's desperation—only for Justice John Few to cut him off: "I haven't seen 'Fargo'—get to the point."Defense attorneys Dick Harpootlian, Jim Griffin, and Phillip Barber argued that Hill's comments to jurors—telling them to "watch his body language" and not be "fooled"—violated Murdaugh's constitutional right to a fair trial. They also challenged the admissibility of cell phone data, a blue raincoat with gunshot residue never tied to Murdaugh, and the sheer volume of financial crimes testimony.The prosecution maintained the evidence was "overwhelming" and Hill's remarks were "fleeting." But the justices weren't buying it—at least not easily.There's no timeline for a decision. But after this hearing, the path forward for either side is anything but certain. This episode breaks down everything that happened in that courtroom—and what it means for Murdaugh's future.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 just heard Alex Murdaugh's appeal—and the prosecution faced a gauntlet of skeptical questions.February 11, 2026 marked the most significant moment in the Murdaugh case since the 2023 conviction. All five justices convened in Columbia to hear oral arguments on two core issues: whether former Clerk of Court Becky Hill's comments to jurors constituted jury tampering, and whether the trial itself was compromised by improper evidence.Chief Justice John Kittredge didn't hold back. He called Hill a "rogue clerk" and questioned why the trial court allowed such expansive testimony about Murdaugh's financial crimes. "I couldn't find any example of financial crime evidence that was excluded," he said. "The granular detail... is arguably problematic."Prosecutor Creighton Waters defended the state's approach, arguing jurors needed to understand the "slow burn" of Murdaugh's financial collapse to comprehend his motive. He even referenced the movie "Fargo" to illustrate desperation—prompting Justice John Few to cut him off: "I haven't seen 'Fargo'—get to the point."Defense attorneys Dick Harpootlian, Jim Griffin, and Phillip Barber argued Hill's statements—including telling jurors to "watch his body language" and not be "fooled"—violated Murdaugh's Sixth Amendment rights. They also challenged cell phone trajectory evidence, a blue raincoat with gunshot residue never linked to Murdaugh, and the volume of financial testimony as unfairly prejudicial.Waters maintained the evidence was "overwhelming" and Hill's comments "fleeting." But multiple justices questioned the logical connection between financial crimes and murder.The court will now deliberate privately. There's no deadline for a ruling. If the conviction is upheld, Murdaugh's team has signaled federal appeals are next.

Alex Murdaugh's appeal reaches the South Carolina Supreme Court February 11, 2026. The case against preserving his conviction just got weaker — because the clerk who oversaw his jury pleaded guilty to lying under oath.Former Colleton County Clerk Becky Hill admitted in December 2025 to perjury, obstruction of justice, and misconduct in office. The perjury charge connects directly to this appeal. At a January 2024 hearing, retired Chief Justice Jean Toal asked Hill whether she allowed media to view sealed exhibits from the trial. Hill denied it. According to prosecutors, she had shown graphic crime scene photos to multiple journalists.Hill was never charged with jury tampering, though three jurors testified she made comments that could have influenced their verdict. But Murdaugh's defense successfully petitioned the Supreme Court to add Hill's conviction to the appellate record. The justices will review the tampering allegations knowing the court official at the center is a convicted perjurer.The state's August 2025 response dismissed Hill's conduct as "foolish and fleeting" and argued the verdict reflected "overwhelming evidence." That response was filed before Hill admitted to lying under oath.Defense attorneys argue Hill's conduct constitutes structural error — that tampering by a state actor is presumptively prejudicial under federal precedent. They also challenge the admission of extensive financial crimes evidence, calling it unfairly prejudicial.The court hears oral arguments but won't rule from the bench. A written decision follows, potentially months later. The justices can affirm, reverse for a new trial, or remand. What they cannot ignore: the person the state trusted to dismiss these concerns is now a convicted liar.#AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughAppeal #BeckyHill #TrueCrimeToday #JuryTampering #SouthCarolina #SupremeCourt #Perjury #TrueCrime #CriminalJusticeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Today's episode is about one of those roles that quietly keeps everything running, the kind of job most people don't think about… until they really need it. My guest is Trevor Addison, the Clerk of Court for Putnam County, and if you've ever bought property, dealt with a court case, filed legal documents, or tried to navigate the justice system, his office has likely played a role in your life, whether you realized it or not.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The Murdaugh saga reaches its most critical moment yet. On February 11th, 2026, the South Carolina Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on Alex Murdaugh's appeal — and the stakes couldn't be higher.Becky Hill, the Colleton County Clerk of Court who managed the jury during Murdaugh's six-week murder trial, has pled guilty to perjury, obstruction of justice, and misconduct in office. She admitted to lying under oath at the January 2024 hearing where retired Chief Justice Jean Toal denied Murdaugh's request for a new trial. Now his defense team is asking the Supreme Court to consider that conviction as they decide whether the original trial was fair.In this episode, we break down both tracks of Murdaugh's appeal. First, the jury tampering allegations: what Becky Hill allegedly told jurors, what investigators found, and why her perjury conviction matters even though she was never charged with tampering. Second, the underlying trial errors: the defense's claim that Judge Clifton Newman allowed prejudicial financial crimes evidence that turned the trial into character assassination.We explain the federal vs. state standard debate that could determine everything. We walk through what the prosecution is arguing. And we address the uncomfortable reality that even if Murdaugh wins, he's still going to die in prison — he's already serving 27 years for stealing $12 million from his clients.This isn't about whether Alex Murdaugh killed his wife and son. The evidence against him is substantial. This is about whether the trial that convicted him followed the rules. And when the clerk who ran that trial is now a convicted liar, that's a question the system has to answer. #AlexMurdaugh #HiddenKillers #BeckyHill #MurdaughAppeal #TrueCrime #JuryTampering #SouthCarolina #MurdaughFamily #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaughJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

February 11th, 2026. That's the date. The South Carolina Supreme Court will finally hear oral arguments in Alex Murdaugh's appeal of his double murder conviction.Nearly three years after a Colleton County jury found him guilty of killing his wife Maggie and son Paul, Murdaugh is asking the state's highest court to throw out the verdict and grant him a new trial. His attorneys have two main arguments: that former Clerk of Court Becky Hill tampered with the jury, and that Judge Clifton Newman improperly allowed prejudicial financial crimes evidence that poisoned the jury against him.Since the original trial, Becky Hill has pled guilty to perjury, obstruction of justice, and misconduct in office. She admitted to lying under oath at the January 2024 hearing where retired Chief Justice Jean Toal denied Murdaugh's motion for a new trial. The defense is now asking the Supreme Court to consider her criminal conviction when weighing whether Murdaugh's trial was fair.In this comprehensive breakdown, we cover every aspect of the upcoming appeal: the jury tampering allegations, Hill's guilty plea and what it means, the defense's argument that the "gathering storm" motive theory was storytelling masquerading as evidence, and the state's position that the verdict should stand because Murdaugh was "obviously guilty."We also break down the federal vs. state standard debate that could decide everything, and explain why Murdaugh's team is still fighting even though he'll never leave prison — he's already serving 27 years for stealing $12 million from clients.The hearing starts at 9:30 AM, will be open to the public, and livestreamed statewide. This is the most significant moment in the Murdaugh legal saga since the verdict. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughAppeal #BeckyHill #MurdaughCase #SupremeCourt #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #SouthCarolina #MoselleJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

THE SELF-IMDULGENT TYRANTS OF THE WEST Colleague Professor James Romm. James Romm introduces Syracuse as a dominant power in the 4th century BCE under the rule of Dionysius the Elder, who rose from clerk to autocrat. Dionysius fortified the city's geography to create a secure military base and adopted the Persian custom of polygamy, marrying two women on the same day. This created a rivalrous, "unhappy family" dynamic in a court notorious for heavy drinking and "Syracusan tables" of excess. NUMBER 5 1800AD SYRACUSE
The Alex Murdaugh story is not finished — in fact, the most consequential chapter may be the one unfolding right now. Three final filings have landed before the South Carolina Supreme Court, and they paint two radically different versions of justice. Prosecutors insist the evidence against Murdaugh was overwhelming: the kennel video timeline, the lies about his whereabouts, the destroyed credibility, and what they describe as a mountain of circumstantial proof. The defense, however, says the entire 2023 double-murder trial was fundamentally corrupted — built on juror influence, untested forensics, and weeks of prejudicial financial-crime testimony that turned a criminal defendant into a caricature of evil. In this full Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and former prosecutor Eric Faddis dissect the final battle lines. We examine the juror affidavit alleging Clerk of Court Becky Hill commented on Murdaugh's demeanor. The defense argues those remarks tainted deliberations and demand a presumption of prejudice. The state counters that Hill's behavior, though “improper,” had no measurable effect — and that the evidence was strong enough to withstand any misstep. We explain how the Supreme Court evaluates fairness, prejudice, “harmless error,” and institutional integrity — and why this appeal isn't just about guilt, but about whether the justice system can confront its own cracks. Missing forensic testing, questions about expert pressure, and Hill's own criminal charges raise deeper issues about how courts protect verdicts in high-profile cases. If the Supreme Court affirms the conviction, the saga quiets — for now. If they order a new trial, it becomes one of the biggest judicial reversals in modern true crime. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughAppeal #HiddenKillers #BeckyHill #CourtroomDrama #SouthCarolina #TrueCrimeAnalysis #LegalUpdate #TonyBrueski #JusticeSystem Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Becky Hill, the former Colleton County Clerk of Court who oversaw Alex Murdaugh's murder trial, pleaded guilty today to obstruction of justice, perjury, and two counts of misconduct in office. She received probation and walked out of court without serving any jail time. Hill was in charge of managing the jury, handling exhibits, and assisting the judge during Murdaugh's six-week trial in 2023. His defense team has alleged she tampered with jurors to secure a guilty verdict — a verdict they say she needed to cash in on a book deal. Today's guilty plea confirms Hill lied under oath during a January 2024 hearing about whether Murdaugh deserved a new trial. The South Carolina Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in his appeal on February 11, 2026. In this episode, we break down what happened in court today, what Hill admitted to, why she wasn't charged with jury tampering, and what this means for Murdaugh's shot at overturning his conviction. #Murdaugh #BeckyHill #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #TrueCrime #SouthCarolina #CourtNews #JuryTampering #MurdaughAppeal #BreakingNews Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What an incredible story out of New Orleans over the weekend. 62-year-old Calvin Duncan has gone from being an 8th grade educated convicted murderer to an exonerated, college educated lawyer who just won Clerk of Criminal Court. Duncan spent 28 years behind bars, educating himself and helping fellow inmates before eventually being freed through the assistance of the Innocence Project. His political opponents used his past to try and turn voters against him, but it backfired and Duncan came out on top with 68 percent of the vote.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Alex Murdaugh case has reached its most critical moment yet: the South Carolina Supreme Court is now reviewing the final filings in his appeal, and both sides are delivering a completely opposite narrative of what happened in that courtroom. One side says the evidence was overwhelming. The other says the process was broken. The justices now have to decide which matters more. In this new Hidden Killers episode, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and legal analyst Eric Faddis examine whether the verdict was powered by solid facts or by a trial that couldn't withstand its own chaos. The prosecution argues everything lines up: Murdaugh's voice on the kennel video, his shifting accounts, his financial world collapsing around him — all pointing toward guilt. The defense counters with accusations that the trial was tainted from the inside: Clerk of Court Becky Hill's alleged comments to jurors, untested DNA, missing forensic work, and a flood of financial testimony they say “poisoned the pool” long before the jury deliberated. Tony and Eric explore what appellate courts really evaluate — not guilt or innocence, but integrity. Did the clerk's alleged words create prejudice? Were the financial crimes allowed to overwhelm the murder evidence? When does “harmless error” become harmful? And how much does media pressure play into what judges are willing to overturn? Beyond Murdaugh, the episode asks a larger question: What happens when a justice system has to evaluate itself? If the verdict stands, does that restore confidence — or just protect an institution's reputation? And if a new trial is ordered, does the public view it as fairness or failure? This appeal will define not just Alex Murdaugh's future, but how the public sees the courts moving forward. #HiddenKillers #AlexMurdaugh #TrueCrime #LegalBreakdown #TonyBrueski #MurdaughCase #SupremeCourtReview #EricFaddis #JusticeDebate #CourtAppeal Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
