New DNA Clue Could Rewrite Murdaugh Murder Retrial

Lawyers for Alex Murdaugh say they’ll introduce previously undisclosed DNA evidence at his retrial—specifically male DNA found under Maggie Murdaugh’s fingernails that doesn’t match Alex or any family member and wasn’t added to CODIS—to argue his innocence and suggest other possible suspects. The defense follows the South Carolina Supreme Court’s overturning of his 2023 double-murder conviction for the killings of Maggie and Paul at the family estate, while Murdaugh remains jailed for financial crimes. Prosecutors argued the motive was to cover up financial crimes, but the defense is pushing multiple alternative theories and noting unexamined evidence, such as tire-track leads, that weren’t pursued. The retrial context centers on the 2021 murders of Maggie and Paul and the broader questions surrounding the case and timing.

States sue over Trump immigration crackdown, alleging constitutional overreach and civil-rights harms

Minnesota and Illinois filed separate lawsuits against the Trump administration's immigration crackdown, arguing the federal operations terrorize communities, strain local police resources, and violate the Constitution. The suits accuse DHS, ICE, CBP and Border Patrol of militarized tactics in public spaces and racial profiling against Somali and Hispanic residents, seeking an injunction to halt the operations and calling the actions political retaliation against sanctuary jurisdictions. The states note ongoing funding withdrawals tied to immigration policy noncompliance and warn the crackdown will persist for years, with thousands of federal agents deployed to the Twin Cities and Chicago, effectively turning parts of their cities into war zones.
