South Carolina investigators found blood on the steering wheel of Alex Murdaugh's Chevy Suburban that he drove on the night of his wife and son's murders, a witness said.
Just three of six alternate jurors left in the 12-person jury, and both Alex's defense team and the prosecution are asking Judge Clifton Newman for a mask mandate going forward, in an effort to keep the remaining jurors healthy and not delay the trial. The clerk of the Colleton County Court also recently tested positive for COVID-19, Defense attorney Dick Harpootlian, who wore a mask Monday morning, noted.
