Alex Murdaugh’s Defense Team In Court For Appeal

It could be several weeks before a decision is reached.

Alex Murdaugh’s defense team is in court Wednesday for oral arguments in his appeal.

Murdaugh’s defense team is appearing before the South Carolina Supreme Court to explain why his double murder conviction should be overturned.

Both sides are presenting their case before the justices, but it could be several weeks before a decision is reached.

The appeal comes after it was discovered that Colleton County Clerk Becky Hill made comments to jurors during the trial and Judge Newman’s admission of financial crimes evidence into the trial.
