Murdaugh Fee Suit Tossed Over Causation Gap After Clerk's Jury Comments
A federal judge dismissed Alex Murdaugh's $600,000 lawsuit against former clerk of court Rebecca Hill, ruling there was no causal link between Hill's juror comments and the murder charges; the suit was dismissed without prejudice, leaving room to refile, as Murdaugh's retrial remains tentatively scheduled for April 2027.
