E|204 UPDATE! The Alex Murdaugh Re-Trial (Bonus)
Tuesday, 20 October, 2026
CRIMINAL MISCHIEF THE MURDAUGH RETRIAL: NEW DNA, MISSING EVIDENCE & UNANSWERED QUESTIONS Could new forensic evidence change the course of one of America's most sensational murder cases? The Alex Murdaugh saga is far from over. After his 2023 convictions for the murders of his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, were overturned, the disgraced South Carolina attorney is preparing for another murder trial. But as prosecutors and defense attorneys prepare to return to the courtroom, new developments are raising questions about the evidence, the investigation, and what the jury may hear this time around. In this episode of Criminal Mischief, host Carolyn Ossorio breaks down the latest developments in the Murdaugh case, including unidentified male DNA discovered beneath Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails, newly authorized forensic testing, and the lingering mystery of the murder weapons and clothing that investigators never recovered. The defense is also raising questions about a possible secret grand jury proceeding and allegations surrounding potentially concealed evidence. But how much of this represents genuinely new information, and how much is legal maneuvering ahead of a high-stakes retrial? Carolyn examines what the evidence actually establishes, what remains disputed, and whether these developments could alter the prosecution's case against Murdaugh. In this episode: • The latest developments ahead of Alex Murdaugh's murder retrial. • Unidentified male DNA beneath Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails and what additional testing could reveal. • The missing murder weapons and unrecovered clothing. • Questions surrounding a possible grand jury investigation and disputed evidence. • The defense's strategy and the challenges facing prosecutors. • What comes next as one of America's most closely watched criminal cases returns to court. The original convictions were overturned because of jury interference, not a finding that Murdaugh was innocent. The new DNA evidence has not established the involvement of another killer, and allegations raised by the defense remain unproven. The evidence may be changing. The questions are multiplying. And the next chapter of the Murdaugh case could be every bit as consequential as the first.
