She adored her family.
She'll be remembered as a second mum forever.
from her son's many friends.
And she made the most out of every situation and lived each day to the fullest.
And actually, when you go back to the details of the case, they were estranged at the time.
She was in a separate beach house that they owned.
She then went back to the family's estate and was later found to have been shot alongside her son with, as we said, her husband accused.
And so, yeah, this isn't by any means, you know, the details of the case are shocking and they reverberated because it's got everything right.
You know, it's got the power, the influence, this legal dynasty of the Murdoch family in South Carolina and all that comes with it.
There's lots of other twists and turns linked to it.
But, you know, yeah, at the heart of it is 52-year-old Maggie Murdoch and her son, Paul Murdoch, who were killed.
And Becky, Rebecca Hill, this court clerk, interfering in this way, looking perhaps had spoken to friends about maybe wanting to write a book, but had had this direct contact with the jurors that the Supreme Court looked at and unanimously agreed was shocking jury interference and denied him his right to a fair trial.
I think the jurors have, from Alec's legal team, spoken about some of what they witnessed.
And I think some of that evidence, although I'd have to check, was taken into consideration by the South Carolina Supreme Court.
But look, the fact that you had this unanimous decision overturning and reversing those guilty verdicts of his wife and son and vacating those life sentences...
that is a major legal decision.
And again, you know, I think the court was very clear that this is an issue of fair trial.
So the fact that he was denied his constitutional right to a fair trial because of
that jury interference because of those comments that were reportedly made.
The Attorney General, the prosecutors who went after Murdoch originally, they have said, as I said, that they are going to aggressively seek to retry Alex for the murders of Maggie and Paul.
