How Alex Murdaugh's Second Murder Trial Is Shaping Up
About this episode
It’s another chance for Alex Murdaugh to try to prove he did not callously gun down his wife and youngest son.
Murdaugh was previously convicted of fatally shooting Maggie and Paul Murdaugh in a desolate area of his family’s sprawling South Carolina property.
The wealthy Lowcountry lawyer got a reprieve in May when the state’s top court found an elected clerk who managed the trial had inappropriate dealings with jurors.
Murdaugh was in court last week for the first time since that ruling.
On this episode, the Daily Mail’s Rachel Sharp joins The Trial: USA host Kayla Brantley to break down what happened in court and what may be next.
