Investigators have already found “significant factual disputes,” the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office said Friday.
The South Carolina Attorney General’s Office finally responded Friday to allegations that a court clerk, saying state investigators have found “significant factual disputes” with the claims.
In their Sept. 5 motion, Murdaugh’s attorney wrote, “Ms. Hill had frequent private conversations with the jury foreperson, a Court-appointed substitution for the foreperson the jury elected for itself at the request of Ms. Hill.” In order to be considered for a new trial, prosecutors indicated Friday that Murdaugh’s team would have to prove five things: That the evidence they bring forward would “probably” change the results of a new trial; that the evidence was learned since the trial ended; that the evidence couldn’t have been easily missed during trial; that the evidence is “material to the issue” of guilt or innocence; and that the evidence is not “merely cumulative or impeaching.
Hill, who is an elected state official, previously denied tampering allegations to The Daily Beast, calling them “totally not true.” “This is crazy,” she added.
