South Carolina court clerk Becky Hill was photographed for the first time Thursday since Alex Murdaugh's lawyers accused her of tampering with jurors in a motion for a new trial.
in an explosive new motion of being a fame-hungry opportunist who tampered with jurors to land a book deal., at about 10 a.m., a photographer asked her,"Did you tamper with the jurors?" Hill briefly glanced in his direction before turning away and smirking.
Hill, who was elected to her position in 2020 and previously worked as a court reporter, is at the center of the latest Murdaugh firestorm. Defense attorneys Jim Griffin and Dick Harpootlian alleged in the motion for a new trial that Hill advised jurors not to believe Murdaugh's testimony, pressured the panel to reach a"quick guilty verdict" and lied to the trial judge in a campaign to remove a panelist that was sympathetic to the defense.
