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":"Why Would the Family That Defended Alex Murdaugh in 2023 Go Silent Before Trial Two?","slug":"why-would-the-family-that-defended-alex-murdaugh-in-2023-go-silent-before-trial-two","published_at":"2026-05-19T13:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-re-trial-of-alex-murdaugh-5989088/why-would-the-family-that-defended-alex-murdaugh-in-2023-go-silent-before-trial-two","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-re-trial-of-alex-murdaugh-5989088","url":"https://audioboom.com/posts/8905055","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/audioboom.com/posts/8905055.mp3?modified=1779135426&sid=5097527&source=rss","summary":"Three years ago, Buster Murdaugh looked a jury in the eye and said he didn’t believe his father could hurt Maggie and Paul. That testimony mattered. It put a human face on the defense. Now sources say Buster is furious about the retrial, hasn’t been to see his father, and someone in his circle has called Alex selfish for pursuing a second trial. The question for the defense isn’t whether they want Buster on the stand—of course they do. The question is whether Buster wants to be there. And what it means if he doesn’t. Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke work through listener questions about every family relationship that matters heading into trial two. The Murdaugh brothers. Maggie’s sister Marian, whose testimony about Alex’s behavior after the murders quietly destroyed a piece of the defense’s case. And Buster, whose evolution from loyal son to reported adversary may be the single most significant change between trial one and trial two. Robin applies FBI behavioral analysis to the pattern. What does it mean when the person closest to the defendant reaches a conclusion they won’t share publicly but communicate through absence? Tony and Robin follow the thread to its uncomfortable endpoint.
