“The juror has had contact or discussions concerning the case with at least three individuals, though it does not appear the discussion was that extensive,” Judge Clifton Newman said.

A juror in Alex Murdaugh’s double-homicide trial was removed on Thursday for “improper conversations” about the case with several people outside court.

The juror’s dismissal was announced at a hearing just before Murdaugh’s defense team was set to present closing arguments in the hopes of convincing the jury that Murdaugh did not shoot his wife, Maggie, and his son, Paul, at the family hunting estate in June 2021. “[South Carolina Law Enforcement Division] has made another bad judgment in this case,” Harpootlian added. “This is just a continuum of a calamity of errors.”

I don't think that the case against him is stong enough to get a conviction. Notice that I did not say that he is innocent. No witnesses, no weapon, no case.

I too am a blabbermouth, have a terrible poker face, but things i've done and people I've done them for as an electrician do still remain confidential, by choice.

Murdaugh trial juror removed for improper discussions outside courtroomNEW: One of the 12 jurors in the double murder trial of Alex Murdaugh has been removed and replaced with an alternate after judge says the juror engaged in improper conversations outside the courtroom. My favorite part: “The judge asked the juror if she had any belongings she needed to take with her before leaving, and she replied she had a dozen eggs in a back room.” ☺️ What’s all the show. He’s guilty and a liar a thief and a murderer. And can’t be let out. Life without the possibility of parole. The lawyer of the defense said. “As all of us (lawyers)we know that we can not base ourselves on evidence from the POLICE because they tend to FABRICATE EVIDENCE” in on other words they are full of 💩💩💩💩
