Unbelievable a court clerk would taint a trial like this.

In this day and age, where the “elites” in government at all levels feel entitled to rule — HIGHLY believable.

Our justice system is hopelessly corrupt from top to bottom.

That court clerk should be heavily fined and made to spend a long stretch in the state lock-up.
Now taxpayers will have to fund another trial for this obvious murderer.

Not surprised. Colleton county is a very small community where the Murdaughs ran the roost forever. These people are not strangers to each other.

Colleton county sounds a lot like McNairy County.....or Hazzard county. đ

Stuff goes on with juries and court staff. People are very imperfect.

Regardless of how this plays out the court clerk is in very hot water.
How can someone be so unprofessional......and frankly, stupid?

Not a murder trial, but nothing remotely like this happened when I was a juror.
Court staff went out of their way to avoid even having eye contact with jurors outside of the court chamber.

Which is why this murder trial should have had a change of venue in the first place. Testimony of Alex Murdaughâs financial crimes should have never been allowed, as well as the dead sonâs fatal boating accident, killing a popular young girl. They were both highly prejudicial in a tiny community where gossip could have influenced testimony, jurors and court officials.

I think she did it intentionally, and at Murdaugh’s direction. To be pulled out later if the verdict didn’t go his way...

The first juror questioned Monday, identified as Juror Z, testified that she was influenced by remarks Hill made prior to the jury rendering its verdict, telling the judge she heard the clerk say to âwatch his actionsâ and âto watch him closely.âCould we start over? Â Who was the Clerk telling that to, who was she talking about and why would an obscure comment make a difference either way to the juror? Â This whole accusation seems contrived.
