Allegations of Jury Tampering and Misconduct in High-Profile Murder Trial

A South Carolina lawyer, Alec Murdoch, convicted of murdering his wife and son, may potentially receive a new trial. Jurors have signed sworn affidavits alleging that the clerk of court, Becky Hill, behaved inappropriately and tried to manipulate and influence the verdict. The allegations include instructing jurors not to be fooled by Murdoch's testimony, having private conversations with the jury, pressuring jurors to come to a quick conclusion, and providing false information about a pro-defense juror to the judge. These claims, if proven, could be considered jury tampering and undermine the integrity of the trial.
