Attorneys for convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh are appealing his conviction based on what they say are “unprecedented” and “shocking” actions by the court clerk that influenced the jury. According to the motion, Colleton County Clerk of Court Rebecca Hill told jurors to not be “misled” or “fooled” by Murdaugh’s testimony. Criminal defense attorney Joshua Ritter says the allegations are shocking and if true, could lead to a new trial. #Murdaugh #AlexMurdaugh #murder Get a fast-paced look at the latest from the border to Main Street to the White House on "NewsNation Live with Marni Hughes."
