Alex Murdaugh Conviction Overturned

breaking Bloomberg Radio United States 1h12s Impact 8
Alex Murdoch's murder convictions have been thrown out by the State Supreme Court. This decision follows an appeal related to the trial proceedings. A South Carolina court has overturned Alex Murdaugh's murder convictions. The South Carolina Court of Appeals cited issues with jury selection. Murdaugh will remain in custody pending the retrial. His financial and federal convictions still stand. Cases involving homicide will be retried. The South Carolina Attorney General plans to retry Alex Murdaugh after the state Supreme Court agreed with his attorneys that his trial was tainted. The Colleton County Clerk of Court attacked Murdoch's credibility, according to the court. The disgraced lawyer was originally convicted three years ago. The reason for the overturning of the convictions was not immediately clear. Murdaugh's sentence of 40 years for client theft was not affected by this ruling.
