Convicted killer Alex Murdaugh was back in court on Tuesday, January 16th, appearing in front of a new judge as he argues his case for a new trial. Retired South Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Jean Toal will preside over Tuesday’s status conference at the Richland County Courthouse. Tuesday’s status hearing could determine who will take the stand later this month when Toal hears arguments that Murdaugh deserves a new trial. Murdaugh was convicted for the June 2021 murders of his wife, Maggie, and their son, Paul, at the family’s hunting property in rural Colleton County. Murdaugh’s defense team filed a motion for a new trial alleging jury tampering on the part of Colleton County Clerk of Court Rebecca Hill. Murdaugh’s defense team filed a brief on Jan. 12 listing potential witnesses they could call. Those names included several jurors, state prosecutor Creighton Waters, and Judge Clifton Newman. “The state must call Ms. Hill to deny the allegations that she tampered with the jury,” the brief states, adding that depending on her testimony, Murdaugh’s team might call additional witnesses as rebuttal witnesses. Hill’s son, Jeffrey Hill, the former IT director for the Colleton County Courthouse, was also listed as a potential witness.

Many people have experienced some form of trauma in their life. I decided at an early age that our trauma should not be what defines us; it’s what we choose to do with it that does. I was just 11 years old when I witnessed my father murder my mother. When no one believed me except one detective, I gathered evidence against my father, leading police to discover her body buried in another state.  After featuring my story on Forensic Files, I channeled my trauma into filmmaking and podcasting, gaining widespread recognition as the creator and subject of A Murder in Mansfield, a film directed by two-time Oscar winner Barbara Kopple. I share my unique perspective on surviving true crime and trauma every week, overcoming adversity, society, and popular culture. I also interview fellow trauma survivors, academics, advocates, and storytellers and explore what comes next.  You can learn more about Collier on his website: https://www.collierlandry.com
