Unanimously. Now the most-watched criminal case in state history starts over — new judge, new jury, new rules — and this is where you follow every step of it. From Hidden Killers host Tony Brueski, The Re-Trial of Alex Murdaugh delivers real-time legal analysis, courtroom coverage, and expert interviews as the State decides whether and how to retry the disbarred attorney for the June 2021 killings of his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul. The Supreme Court didn't just reverse the verdict — it rewrote the playbook. The financial crimes evidence that dominated the first trial has been sharply restricted. The jury tampering by former Colleton County Clerk Becky Hill, who pled guilty to perjury, has been laid bare in a devastating 27-page opinion. Everything about this case is different now. This podcast covers what matters: pretrial motions, venue fights, evidentiary rulings, witness strategy, jury selection, and the legal collisions that will determine whether Murdaugh is convicted again or walks on the murder charges. No filler. No recycled takes. No speculation dressed up as analysis. Just the case, the law,…","last_synced_at":"2026-06-16T10:17:19.370813+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-re-trial-of-alex-murdaugh-5989088"},"episode":{"title":"Did The State Prosecutor Protect Becky Hill From Jury Tampering Charges?","slug":"did-the-state-prosecutor-protect-becky-hill-from-jury-tampering-charges","published_at":"2026-05-22T19:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-re-trial-of-alex-murdaugh-5989088/did-the-state-prosecutor-protect-becky-hill-from-jury-tampering-charges","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-re-trial-of-alex-murdaugh-5989088","url":"https://audioboom.com/posts/8906527","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/audioboom.com/posts/8906527.mp3?modified=1779388119&sid=5097527&source=rss","summary":"Here's what doesn't add up. The state prosecutor who handled Becky Hill's criminal case told the court there wasn't enough evidence to charge her with jury tampering. Four months later, the South Carolina Supreme Court ruled unanimously that Hill engaged in \"shocking jury interference\" and placed \"her fingers on the scales of justice.\" She'd already pleaded guilty to misconduct, obstruction, and perjury. But the tampering charge — the one that actually describes what the Supreme Court says she did — was never filed. Eric Faddis spent years as a prosecutor and now practices defense. He explains how that gap happens, what it means, and whether it suggests something more than a difference of legal opinion. Alex Murdaugh's defense team isn't waiting to find out. Five days after the Supreme Court ruling, they filed a federal Section 1983 lawsuit against Hill personally — seeking six hundred thousand dollars in damages and, more importantly, the civil discovery tools the criminal process never gave them. Subpoenas. Depositions. The right to drag people under oath and ask questions nobody in the state system has asked. Dick Harpootlian already said the quiet part out loud: is Becky Hill a \"lone wolf\"? The only people trying to find out are working for the man she allegedly helped convict.
