About this episode

The episode recaps the Murdaugh trial and discusses the implications of a new trial granted to Alex Murdaugh.

From the Patreon Archives: By now, you've probably heard that Alex Murdaugh has been granted a new trial. We're bringing you a full breakdown of the South Carolina Supreme Court decision later this week, as well as a look into the civil lawsuit he filed against the woman responsible for depriving him of his constitutional right. But first, we want to set the scene with this True Crime Headlines segment from the Patreon archives. It was recorded back when the first Murdaugh verdict came in. A peak back into what we thought would happen in 2023 -- and what we didn't know was happening behind the scenes. Before we bring you our appeal coverage later this week, dig into this. For a real treat, you can also head back to episodes 151-153 to hear our early EARLY coverage when we weren't even sure Alex was the one who did it. And now with his murder conviction vacated and his attorneys claiming new evidence points to a third party, we're left with the questions - did he? And will the low country ever see justice served for these heinous crimes? Click here for this week's show notes. Click here to sign up for our Patreon and receive hundreds of hours of bonus content.
