🏛️⚖️ #Murdaugh
If you haven't kept up with the 'Retrial of the Century,' a LOT has happened in recent weeks.
The second trial of accused killer Alex Murdaugh features disputes over cell phone records, a battle over DNA testing, serious questions regarding ballistics and (as we exclusively reported last month) the existence of a secretive grand jury investigation into the missing murder weapons.
All of it comes to a head in Lexington, S.C. tomorrow morning.
For a recap of all the pending issues - and how you can follow the action live tomorrow - our @IndyJenn_ has got you covered.

After hearing witness statements along with arguments from both the defense and prosecution, Judge Jane Merrill told the Court she would take the issue under advisement and issue an order.

⚖️ FITSNews is in Anderson County for Ross Vilardi’s bond hearing. The quadruple-murder defendant is seeking release after a judge suppressed key evidence, halting his trial while prosecutors appeal.
Stay tuned for updates and a full breakdown on @fitsnews as soon as we know the outcome.
Replying to @NancyMace
@NancyMace #ScorchedEarth
Three of the four men accused of various sex-related crimes by South Carolina congresswoman Nancy Mace last February have now been criminally charged by the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division (SLED).
Our @TheWillFolks has the scoop...

👀
John Osborne, one of the four men accused of sexual assault by @NancyMace in her famed "scored earth" speech back in February 2025, was booked at 7:22 a.m. EDT this morning at the Charleston County detention center.
No information is available yet regarding the circumstances of his detention, but sources close to the congresswoman tell us his arrest is tied to her allegations.
And that more arrests are coming...

🏛️⚖️ #Vilardi
Some big news in this high-profile 2015 quadruple homicide...
Four days after a South Carolina judge tossed the search warrant leading to his arrest nearly three years ago, Ross Vilardi's attorney - Shaun Kent - has filed a motion seeking his release from jail pending the resolution of the state's appeal of that decision.
Our @TheWillFolks reports on the latest fallout in this Upstate true crime saga...

🏛️⚖️
Four gruesome murders. Two separate trials (one of which has already resulted in a conviction). One fundamental issue that could ultimately decide both proceeedings...

By far one of the best @RealAndyFancher stories yet… “For his crimes against candy crush…” 🤣🤣🤣
🔎 #ChuckWright
Mainstream media thinks this story is over... this story is just beginning.
Our @RealAndyFancher is still digging... searching for the accountability prosecutors left on the vine as they selectively prosecuted one of the most powerful lawmen in South Carolina history.

Two Palmetto State politicians are in hot water - one arrested on a state gun charge and the other pleading guilty to federal fraud charges.
A Lowcountry law enforcement agency and state child welfare officials are facing scrutiny over the latest horrific crime against children in South Carolina.
Finally, the #Murdaugh retrial 🏛️⚖️ is officially a circus again after both defense attorneys and prosecutors flooded the zone this week with court filings.

🚨
A massive development in the quadruple homicide trial of Ross Vilardi happened today...
A search warrant that helped secure evidence critical to the state's case against Vilardi has been thrown out - putting the trial on hold while the S.C. court of appeals hears arguments on whether the judge's decision should stand.
This is a huge deal not only for Ross Vilardi, but for his wife Amy Vilardi - who was tried separately last year and found guilty of the four murders.
Our @IndyJenn_ breaks it all down...

⚖️ Bet you thought we were done with Murdaugh filings today…
Alex Murdaugh’s attorneys are asking a federal appeals court to revive his lawsuit against Becky Hill, arguing her jury interference wasted his $600,000 defense.
@fitsnews
fitsnews.com/wp-content/uplo…
🚨⚖️ NEW: Murdaugh’s defense says grand jury secrecy cannot shield SLED’s 2023 records on alleged disposal of the murder weapons. New filings also seek DNA testing, ballistics comparisons and crime-scene scan data ahead of the Oct. 16 hearing. Full story coming soon on @fitsnews

🏛️⚖️ #Murdaugh
A TON of new court filings dropping this afternoon in South Carolina as state prosecutors led by @CreightonWaters pushed back against several recently filed motions from Alex Murdaugh's attorneys.
A hearing on all the paper flying about has been set for next Friday (October 16, 2026).
For the best, most detailed, most impartial assessment of what's in all of the new documents, our @IndyJenn_ has you covered...

🚨 MISSING WEAPONS: Citing grand jury secrecy, the State declined to confirm or deny the investigation or discuss witnesses and findings. It highlighted Alex Murdaugh’s ties to Greg Alexander and said it would comply with Brady obligations “if and when” triggered. @fitsnews

🧵Paper is flying in the Murdaugh case ahead of the October 16 hearing. With the State’s response deadline today, new filings address cellphone extractions, crime-scene scans and ballistics. The defense also corrected a disputed discovery date. Breaking it down in this thread. @fitsnews
If additional filings are released, I’ll add them to this thread as they come in. Full story coming soon on @fitsnews.
