Alex Murdaugh Appeal - Attorney Explains 2 Reasons for New Trial | Criminally Obsessed

On Wednesday, Feb. 11, the South Carolina Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Alex Murdaugh’s double murder appeal. The disbarred attorney is serving two life sentences for the 2023 killings of his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, but he continues to maintain his innocence and is asking the court to overturn his convictions. His legal team is focusing on two key arguments. They say former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill improperly influenced jurors during the trial, and they argue the judge allowed too much testimony about Murdaugh’s financial crimes as motive, evidence the defense says unfairly prejudiced the jury. Investigative reporter Anne Emerson sits down with attorney Eric Bland to break down the appeal, what the justices will be weighing, and whether the case could end up back in a South Carolina courtroom. _______________ ABOUT Criminally Obsessed is first on the scene, uniting fellow armchair detectives in their quest to crack the case.
