Summary

Alex Murdaugh's defense team entered the ring throwing haymakers in a pre-hearing status conference on January 16th, hoping to bludgeon open a clear path to a retrial in Murdaugh's murder case. But retired South Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Jean Toal, the newly appointed judge on the case, parried and rebuffed Murdaugh's ambitious volleys in stunning and decisive fashion. Now Murdaugh's opening to land the decisive blow against his dual murder convictions and life sentence appears vanishingly small.

Join Anne Emerson, Charlie Condon and Drew Tripp as they recap the important day in court and preview Murdaugh's upcoming evidentiary hearing on the controversial jury tampering allegations.

evidentiary hearing, what we've also been calling the retrial hearing for the double murder case of Alec Mordec.

1:08.0

And as we go towards this evidentiary hearing, it certainly feels like the retired Supreme Court justice from South Carolina, Jean Toll, had some very decisive moments in this what was a conference status hearing

to tell us exactly what needed to happen.

1:34.6

retrial hearing. I think stages said is a good analogy and I thought the
