Alex Murdaugh’s motion<\/a> for a new double murder trial over allegations of jury tampering is “defective,” the South Carolina attorney general Alan Wilson charged Friday in his response.<\/p>\n

Defense attorneys Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin allege in court papers that Colleton County Clerk Becky Hill told jurors<\/a> not to believe Murdaugh’s testimony and pressured them to reach a swift guilty verdict, so she could secure a book deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wilson argued in a four-page reply that the defense lawyers had filed a “procedurally defective” motion with the state’s Court of Appeals because they didn’t disclose when or how they learned of the damning allegations against the clerk.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The filing requests that the court give Murdaugh 10 days to correct the faulty motion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Murdaugh, 55, was sentenced<\/a> in March to two life terms in prison for the murders of his 52-year-old wife, Maggie, and his son, Paul, 22, in June 2021.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He filed an appeal before the defense team tracked down three jurors who made the stunning claims.<\/p>\n

They’re asking the Court of Appeals <\/a>to pause the appeal and kick the case back to the trial judge who will decide whether to overturn the verdict based on the alleged misconduct.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wilson wrote in the filing that their investigation has “revealed significant factual disputes” with the defense’s accusations without specifying what they are.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a significant concession, the prosecutor acknowledges that a hearing may be necessary to “properly resolve some of the serious claims” raised in the motion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We are reviewing the filing and have no comment at this time,” Griffin told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

The defense has alleged that Hill, who wrote a memoir about the trial, “betrayed her oath of office for money and fame.” Her attorney, Justin Bamberg, declined to comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fox Nation aired the hit docuseries “The Fall of the House of Murdaugh”<\/u><\/a> earlier this month, which features interviews with Hill and Murdaugh’s only surviving son, Buster.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
