Summary

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? We discuss.
