COJ #46 - Dick and Jim Strike Again… But Will Their Scheme Work?

Attorneys Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin have gone even lower in their quest to get convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh a new trial. This time by blowing up the career of Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill. True Sunlight Podcast Co-hosts Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Eric Bland — discuss whether the accusations against Becky amount to jury-tampering, as well as the chances that one of Dick and Jim’s strategies might actually work.

On today’s episode we break down Dick Harpootlian’s and Jim Griffin’s latest strategy — a motion for a new trial, which they’re basing on juror allegations that Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill tampered with the jury that found Alex guilty of murdering Maggie and Paul.

We cover a lot of ground in this episode — including what a clerk of court does, what the accusations against Becky look like and whether we think this might be the one time Dick and Jim see a win.
