In an exclusive interview with Fox Nation, two jurors from the Alex Murdaugh double murder trial reveal behind-the-scenes details about the controversial case that shocked South Carolina.
The infamous Alex Murdaugh double murder trial has taken a new twist with the release of an exclusive interview on Fox Nation featuring two jurors who shed light on the tumultuous events that unfolded within the jury room. The interview, conducted by Fox News' Martha MacCallum, provides an unprecedented glimpse into the inner workings of the trial that captivated the nation.
Juror "Egg," who earned her moniker after leaving a dozen eggs in the jury room, alleges that Clerk of Court Becky Hill targeted her and attempted to sway her opinion towards guilt. "I feel like I was targeted," said the "Egg juror." "Ms. Hill asked me on several occasions what my opinion was, and my constant answer was ‘undecided.’"

Juror Z, the only deliberating juror who admitted her guilty verdict was influenced by Hill, corroborates "Egg's" claims. She describes how Hill interacted with the jurors in the jury room, making it seem like Murdaugh was already guilty. "What Becky did wasn't right," said Juror Z.
The "Egg juror" believes the presiding judge made a mistake by dismissing her from the case, a move that further sowed discord among the jurors. "I was dismissed because I wasn't going to change my vote, and that shouldn't be a reason for me to be dismissed from the jury," she stated.

The revelations by these two jurors raise serious questions about the integrity of the trial and the potential for jury tampering. Clerk of Court Becky Hill has resigned amid allegations of misconduct and is currently under investigation.
Disgraced South Carolina lawyer Alex Murdaugh stands accused of murdering his wife, Maggie, and youngest son, Paul, on his hunting estate in June 2021. After a contentious trial, the jury returned a guilty verdict after less than three hours of deliberations, sentencing Murdaugh to life in prison.

However, the post-verdict period has been marred by controversy, with Murdaugh's defense team arguing that Becky Hill influenced the jury. The South Carolina Supreme Court has agreed to hear Murdaugh's appeal on these grounds.
The exclusive interview on Fox Nation provides a chilling account of the events that transpired within the jury room, exposing potential bias and raising doubts about the fairness of the trial. As the investigations into Hill's conduct continue, the public eagerly awaits the outcome of Murdaugh's appeal and the resolution of this complex and highly publicized case.
