Kouri Richins Gets Life and Alex Murdaugh Gets Another Trial [Current Affairs]

About this episode

Jessie and Andie discuss the sentencing of Kouri Richins and the overturning of Alex Murdaugh's murder convictions.

This week on Love Murder Current Affairs, Jessie and Andie cover two major updates in cases of love gone fatally wrong: Kouri Richins is sentenced to life without parole for the fentanyl poisoning murder of her husband Eric, and the South Carolina Supreme Court overturns Alex Murdaugh’s murder convictions after finding his trial was tainted by the court clerk’s improper comments to jurors. Current Affairs is Love Murder’s shorter show about the cases of love gone fatally wrong that are in the news right now.
