The South Carolina Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal from disgraced former attorney Alex Murdaugh, who is currently serving a life sentence without parole for the murders of his wife and son. The appeal centers on allegations of jury tampering during Murdaugh's murder trial, where his defense claims the court clerk improperly influenced the jury. Murdaugh, nearly three years into his sentence, is also appealing a 40-year federal prison sentence for financial crimes after pleading guilty to stealing nearly $11 million from his clients and law firm. His defense argues that the sentence, which is 10 years longer than federal guidelines recommend, is excessive and unconstitutional. The jury tampering allegations are pivotal in Murdaugh's state court appeal. Murdaugh's lawyers contend that Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill improperly told jurors not to trust Murdaugh's testimony, had private discussions with the jury foreperson, and pressured the jury to reach a quick verdict. Hill resigned amid an ethics investigation following these claims. Murdaugh's defense argues that this misconduct influenced the jury's decision, warranting a new trial. Judge Jean Toal, a retired South Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice assigned to the case, emphasized that overturning a verdict on the grounds of jury tampering requires proving that a juror changed their mind due to improper influence. However, Murdaugh's defense cites a federal standard suggesting that the potential to influence jurors should be enough to overturn the conviction. The South Carolina Supreme Court has given Murdaugh's legal team 30 days to submit further arguments, but no date has been set for the hearing. In federal court, Murdaugh is challenging his 40-year sentence for financial crimes, arguing it violates his right against cruel and unusual punishment. The sentence was handed down by U.S. District Judge Richard Gergel, who rejected the 17 to 22-year range recommended by federal guidelines. Murdaugh's defense compares his sentence to those given to high-profile defendants like crypto entrepreneur Sam Bankman-Fried and Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes, who received 25 and 11 years, respectively. Murdaugh's crimes involved stealing from vulnerable clients, including a quadriplegic man and children whose parents died in a car crash. Judge Gergel highlighted the severe breach of trust in sentencing Murdaugh, stating, “Those people placed all their problems and all their hopes with their lawyer.” Federal prosecutors argue that Murdaugh waived his right to appeal by signing an agreement when he pleaded guilty, stating he would only appeal if prosecutors lied or his defense was inadequate. They also noted that it is rare for a court to overturn such a sentence, citing only one relevant case involving a life sentence for passing a $100 bad check. The U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Virginia, will hear Murdaugh's appeal, with a three-judge panel randomly assigned to the case. Murdaugh's legal troubles began unraveling in 2021 when he was accused of murdering his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, at their home in Colleton County. Prosecutors argued that the murders were intended to gain sympathy and buy time as his financial schemes collapsed. Murdaugh, who testified in his defense, admitted to lying to police but denied committing the murders. Despite his claims, evidence, including a video recording of his voice at the crime scene minutes before the killings, played a critical role in his conviction. Murdaugh's family had long held significant influence in South Carolina's legal system, with his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather serving as prosecutors in Hampton County for nearly nine decades. Murdaugh's extensive legal battles, including these appeals, are expected to continue for years as he fights to overturn his convictions and reduce his sentences. #AlexMurdaugh #JuryTampering #SouthCarolinaSupremeCourt #FederalAppeal #FinancialCrimes #MurderTrial #LegalAppeal Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

A rebroadcast of one of the top five most popular Weird Religion episodes of all time: on the embattled former Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes and her attempt to create—or rather, fake having created—a futuristic blood-testing system. We end up having a gender smackdown conversation about women-on-women violence in the workplace, discussing ancient female fertility figurines and matriarchal societies, and musing on whether Holmes intentionally tried to dress like a religious leader.

On today's show we're going to ask a few questions about the spectacular collapse of FTX. A lot has been written about FTX in the past week. My goal is not to repeat what you might have already extracted from the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, or any of a host of outlets that have covered the story. The investigations will turn up numerous revelations in the coming weeks and months. One consequence that I see arising from this debacle could be an entirely new regulatory regime. We have heard the White House talk about the need to regulate Crypto currencies. What happened at FTX was not a failure of regulation. If the reports I'm reading are true, they committed Fraud. Fraud is fraud. It's like saying funds need more oversight because of Madoff, and companies need more oversight because of Enron, and the US dollar can't be trusted because many of these frauds were denominated in US dollars. Bernie Madoff conducted the largest Ponzi scheme in history with losses in the tens of billions. Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes was just sentenced to a bit more than 11 years in prison for her role in the fraud at the blood testing equipment company. You don't hear the White House saying that there needs to be more oversight of blood testing equipment. That's because blood testing was not the essential cause of the fraud. The company falsified results and misled investors. These frauds will increasingly be used as a pretext for a US government backed digital dollar where each transaction happens under the watchful eye of government. The loss of civil liberty that results from this kind of government invasion of privacy will have profound social consequences. Do you find it acceptable that every time you hire a private limousine, order a beer at a pub, or purchase birth control at the drug store, all of these transactions are on display and subject to government scrutiny? We don't need more regulation as a result of FTX. Every time a major fraud is committed, there is this chorus of demands for more regulation, for greater government oversight. We don't need laws on top of laws on top of laws. Enforcement of the laws we have is the key. Madoff Securities LLC was investigated at least eight times over a 16-year period by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Yet somehow they failed to catch what was a flagrant Ponzi scheme and a fraud on a massive scale.

This week, Dan Hugger, Michael Matheson Miller, and Stephen Barrows examine the collapse of the crypto currency exchange FTX and the sentencing of former Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes. How should we think about fraud in business? What is the role of corporate governance in securing the common good? How should investors and prospective clients best do their due diligence on companies they use and invest in? How do disreputable corporate leaders utilize regulatory and ideological capture to deceive? Is crypto currency itself a scam? What is the role of conscience in business and what does justice and repentance look like for disgraced business leaders?Sam Bankman-Fried's Alameda quietly used FTX customer funds for trading, say sources | CNBCThe Collapse of a Cryptocurrency Guru | Titus Techera, Acton InstituteEmoji for expenses, penthouses and slipshod accounting: The most damning details from new FTX CEO's report | CNBCSam Bankman-Fried tries to explain himself | VoxHow FTX bought its way to become the 'most regulated' crypto exchange | Reuters Hosted on Acast.

Elizabeth Holmes Is Pregnant … Again During an unusual court appearance on Monday, a key witness in the trial that resulted in the conviction of disgraced Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes staunchly defended his testimony. Former Theranos lab director Adam Rosendorff testified for the prosecution and made an apology visit to Holmes' Silicon Valley home after the trial ended, sparking speculation of misconduct on Holmes' part. Holmes, 38, was convicted of four felonies related to investor fraud earlier this year, and her sentencing was set to begin the same day as the 75-minute hearing. She could spend the next two decades behind bars for promising Thrernos investors that a blood-testing technology would transform medical practice but failing to deliver on that promise. On Monday, Holmes had what could be her last chance to avoid jail time by convincing U.S. District Judge Edward Davila that Rosendorff's actions merit a new trial. Rosendorff testified for the prosecution for a total of six days last year during Holmes' trial. After Holmes' attorneys asked for a new trial last month, Davila decided Rosendorff's testimony should be re-examined because he paid an unannounced visit to Holmes' and William "Billy" Bundy's mansion on August 8 "Evans, the man she's currently dating and the father of her son, who is a year old. While Rosendorff did not speak with Holmes directly, Evans recalled that he told the court that Holmes "tried to answer the questions honestly but that the prosecutors tried to make everyone look bad" and that Holmes felt "he had done something wrong." U.S. District Judge Edward Davila questioned Rosendorff, and the witness repeatedly affirmed that he had testified truthfully during the trial and that he believed Holmes deserved to be convicted. But he also expressed regret to Davila about the prospect that Holmes' son "would spend the formative years of his life without his mother." "Holmes receives a prison term, If. The judge finished his question, and Rosendorff spent the next half an hour in a heated exchange with Lance Wade, one of Holmes' lawyers. Wade had already had several heated exchanges with Rosendorff during his cross-examination. During his August visit, Wade hoped to pry some information out of Rosendorff about the mental anguish he'd been experiencing since the trial, as well as whether or not he was taking any medication to cope. After Rosendorff's refusal to respond, the judge did not push the matter further. Most of Rosendorff's replies to Wade emphasized his testimony's veracity and dispelled the idea that he viewed Holmes as a friend for whom he felt sorry. At one point, Rosendorff stated, “I don't want to help Ms. Holmes.” It's up to her to help herself; no one else can. Eventually, she will have to make amends to the public. At the same time, Rosendorff made an effort to convey his approval of her conviction. The government wanted to know the facts about what Elizabeth Holmes had done, and they were trying to "In his words. Government attorneys also spent some time emphasizing Rosendorff's belief that no trial misconduct occurred. During the next week, Davila will consider additional written arguments from both Holmes' attorneys and government prosecutors before making a decision on whether or not to grant a new trial, which is widely considered to be highly unlikely. A new sentencing date for Holmes has been set for November 18 by Judge Davila. Three days later, her ex-boyfriend and business partner Ramesh "Sunny" "Balwani's sentencing is up next. In a different trial that ended in July, Balwani, 57, was found guilty on 12 counts of investor and patient fraud. Rosendorff then said, "it is my understanding that she is pregnant again," without providing any context. Neither Holmes nor Evans gave an answer to that question when The Associated Press asked them after the hearing. Even as they entered the elevator together, Holmes spontaneously smiled and Evans complemented an Associated Press journalist on his shoes.

The upcoming criminal trial of former Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes figures to center around one crucial question: Was the blood testing startup's failure a case of misguided Silicon Valley over-ambition, or was it outright fraud? Law360's Dorothy Atkins has been covering the Theranos litigation for years, and she joins us this week to break down all you need to know ahead of next week's long-awaited trial. Also on the show: The Supreme Court refuses to halt a Texas law prohibiting abortions after six weeks and the Manhattan DA muscles up against a bogus COVID-19 vaccination card ring.

College dropout Elizabeth Holmes once claimed her start-up Theranos would transform blood tests and modern medicine. At its peak in 2015, the company was worth $9 billion and was set to roll out its products across the country.

Delayed by the pandemic, Holmes' trial is finally underway in San Jose. We discuss what you need to know to follow along with the proceedings, and hear how the controversy has shaken Silicon Valley and startup culture.
