Alex Murdaugh’s double murder convictions overturned

South Carolina's Supreme Court on Wednesday overturned Alex Murdaugh's murder convictions, ruling that court clerk misconduct and improper evidence admission compromised his trial. The unanimous decision cited the clerk's attempts to undermine his credibility and the judge's allowance of unrelated financial crimes evidence. Murdaugh remains imprisoned on a 40-year federal sentence for stealing $12 million from clients.
