Original: alex murdaugh

Disgraced South Carolina lawyer Alex Murdaugh returned to court for a key pretrial hearing on October 16, where his attorneys argued to have his murder charges thrown out. His lawyers are challenging DNA evidence and the handling of firearms in the case, claiming confusion over the crime scene and the search for missing guns. Legal experts have criticised the defence's pursuit of the police chief over the weapons as a 'wild goose chase'.
