Attorney Says "The Integrity of The System Is At Stake" On Alex Murdaugh Appeal
Attorney Albert Wunsch was a prosecutor and is a defense attorney. He has strong opinions on the State's response to Alex Murdaugh's appeal. Wunsch co-hosts the Tangent true crime podcast with V innie Politan. The State filed their response to Alex Murdaugh's appeal of his double murder of conviction of his wife and son. In their 182 page brief they laid out their case that the evidence pointing to Murdaugh's guilt was so overwhelming, that Clerk of Court, Becky Hill's "fleeting and foolish" comments would have had no effect on the verdict. The State made their case for why all the other reasons Murdaugh's defense team hoped would overturn the conviction should be ignored by the Sc State Supreme Court.
