Alex Murdaugh’s ‘Egg Juror’ Challenges S.C. Supreme Court
Dismissed juror says First Amendment requires justices furnish her with a reason why they won’t release her files…

My question is: why does this juror care so much for transparency and dwelling on this? I believe this is the juror that wrote a book (how many jurors do that?) so I think she must be trying to stay relevant and get publicity for her book. Must be nice to be able to afford an attorney for such BS also. There are a lot of attorneys who are probably making very good money from this entire Murdaugh saga, so I can see why all this BS is coming up.
I agree. I also think Murdaugh’s defense team is motivated to make his trial and verdict seem as illegitimate as possible in the hopes of getting him a new trial. Her attorney looks to be, essentially, a part of the defense team, given his relationship with Dick Harpootlian.
I also cannot get past my suspicion that she was a part of a sinister plot by the defense to plant someone on the jury to ensure a mistrial if they couldn’t get a verdict in their favor. She may have missed out on a significant payday by failing to keep her mouth shut and getting kicked off the jury.
Well written article. Glad to support ya’ll
