Murdaugh Retrial Moves to Columbia | Annapolis News
Description
Alex Murdaugh’s legal team is pushing to move his double-murder retrial to Columbia, South Carolina, arguing it’s the fairest and most practical option after a judge ruled Colleton County can’t host the trial due to jury tampering. They blame court official Becky Hill for constitutional violations and want to shield Colleton from financial strain — while also reducing costs for Murdaugh. Previously, Charleston was considered but rejected over logistical nightmares. Now, Columbia emerges as the new battleground — with the state and defense locked in a tense standoff over where justice should be served — and who pays the price.
