I think the judge is spot on! You can’t tell me she read the entire transcript of the previous trial and then didn’t judge correctly. With she and Judge Newman presiding over these cases, it’s hard to believe South Carolina is plagued with so much corruption.
@tinkertott hey Tater Tott I’m sorry I mean Tinker Bell, had she not been so biased and unfair or disrespectful of a persons right to a fair trial I bet you wouldn’t be praising her then, the thing is that is what would have made her amazing. Ever find yourself in that situation I pray you have a judge just like her. Hearts smiley faces

You can tell by her questions she did read the entire transcript of the Murdaugh murder trial. She got more in depth than Dick did. She followed the law and we saw exactly what those jurors said so no one can say otherwise now. Becky Hill has ruined her name and reputation! Caused a mess for South Carolina! So happy the Judge let it be know she read everything involved in that case she believes the jurors got it right also.
She will profit from the book big time! Especially now! Obviously can write another & sounds like she was from an older probably wealthy family, so think she will be ok! 🤦♀️
Becky Hill may well be a casualty of a powerful network which is desperate to hold onto power. I’d like to have heard from the bailiff regarding the car journey. I don’t believe the clerk.
@@kathybrown8497 Ms. Hill is an elected official. The Governor is the only one that can remove her. I can tell you right now, Governor Foghorn Leghorn McMaster ain't gonna do nothing.
Based on her allowing Harpootlien to get his way on things she previously said she would not allow I thought she may rule if favor of defense. That would be a disappointment but this is a judge that has earned my trust. Judge Toal did not disappoint and she vindicated Judge Newman at the end👏👏👏

I don’t understand how south Carolina’s judicial system has been so corrupted because of what we have seen, these judges are amazing!!! Very good Judge! You called it exactly right!
@@dudemorris7769For almost 100 years the Murdaugh’s were the District Attorney. The DA decides what cases will appear in court and have the judge hear their cases. The DA has more power than the Judge.
4:30:29 Question: "If you closed the door to one [of the two jury rooms], could they hear what's going on in the other one?" Becky Hill's answer: "Some women probably have very good hearing. And men too. [...]" What the heck kind of a sexist answer is that? Bizarre.
Becky was inappropriate but all 12 jurors said on verdict day it was their final verdict and their verdict alone. Anything opposite of that now only raise credibility issues about them and their motive(s) now.
So, let me get this straight. We heard rumors that Becky Hill said all kinds of inappropriate things to the jurors. But, as it turns out, only one juror made such claims. Is that accurate? Also, after all of this drama in a very serious case, one of the jurors had the nerve to open her cell phone?! Why wouldn't the jurors turn their cell phones over before court? Am I missing something?
It was TWO jurors That were on their phone. They didn’t hear instructions NOT to use their phone. There were 2 jurors who indicated they heard bhill say inappropriate things AND one juror (egg lady) who said she was acting inappropriately
I think someone should check jury Z's checking account. Beck Hill will get her due but i never heard where spoke to the jury. Yes she took a juror home but she had someone with them from the court. Was he implicated?
Check the witness clerks account AND the last juror’s account. Who approached these people. Pootles was very dramatic and last minute and yet the judge said they’d had plenty of discussion as to how the hearing was to be held.
This jury is either the most incompetent jury EVER to have existed in a high profile case, or paid off to do stupid things that could cause an appeal/mistrial on behalf of Alex.
Uggh! A man pointing his finger toward the face of a woman thinking it is going to intimidate her. Triggers me every time. You will not intimidate this judge, Poot. She is incredible.
@@footballmadTVOMG😳😳😳I repent! I repent for being ecstatic that Alex Murdoch is spending the rest of his days serving justice for taking the lives of his wife Maggie and a mother to her sons! Oh and his son Paul🤔🤔🤔🤥🤥🤥nah I’m going to have to live with not repenting I’m afraid 🤔🤔🤔
Maybe but here’s the thing. This judge is the former chief justice of the Supreme Court. People are speculating she got assigned this case because the appeals court doesn’t want it.
@@KS-hi8vi Funny how you’re so worried about wasting taxpayer dollars when there are so many more examples of how the government wastes money that far exceeds anything you’ll ever pay for this guy in jail for life.
😂😂😂😂. Hey we are already dealing with so many corrupt lawyers and politicians. Please don't send us anymore unnecessary bad people. Let them stay in South Carolina please 😂.
I didn't watch the entire thing, so I wasn't sure if I got it right. It sounds like only one juror made claims that Becky said all of those inappropriate things. Granted, the book deal was sketchy, so her reputation is in the toilet. But as far as trying to influence the jurors, she may not have done all of the things that she was accused of. Is that right?
Great judge! For the second time, you are guilty af mr murdaugh, get it through your head, you are not getting out of it this time buddy! Youve commited crimes all your life and even murder and now you are paying the price.
the judge was solid and thank God. Imagine if he was grantsd a new trial, there would be slimy lawyers who are already the slimiest people, chasing jury members after every guilty verdict stalking and bribing one each and every time
I would like to see this juror's bank account for a year before this allegation and a year after the hearing. Juror 741 sounds like a liar or in cahoots with Murdaugh.
Who is this Judge?!?!?! I LOVE HER! She is fair and straight to the point without being rude👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I like how she explains her rulings …. I wish she could teach judge Gull (Richard Allen’s case) a thing or two!!! Bravo Judge!!!
This was the correct judge to hear this case ! She definitely has a lot of experience under her belt ! Many years she has served and I don’t think you could get a more experienced judge!
Agree. She was Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of South Carolina before she retired-serving more than 10 years in that position. She also sat on the Supreme Court of SC for many years prior.
Another failure of the system. Determining the "influence on the verdict" of proven tampering is impossible. Who knows how suggestible these jurors were. If someone in a position of authority and with perceived, behind the scenes knowledge gives their opinion, one juror could easily incorporate that into their verdict without even being fully aware.
I was just thinking how it must have felt for them to find that email to the Japanese media just after she lied on the stand about it. I’d want to crawl into a hole…
I’m super late watching this, but I absolutely love this judge! She puts them in their place 😂😂 I was laughing my a$$ off every time she shut down Mr Pootin 😂
These jurors are not being honest and that has become clearer with the denials of all but one for saying they did not use their phones during this hearing. So based on this, AM deserves a new trial.
Uggghhhhh defendant closing full of lies. The day would be “big” not epic. Long hard day listening to defendants testimony. Listen up people. Pay attention. Eavesdropping on the clerk unwisely talking to a bailiff is not a direction to the eavesdroppers.
I read Becky Hill’s book on my channel when it first came out because I couldn’t find a free audio of it, I decided if I had to buy it, I might as well read it aloud in case someone else was looking for a free audio of it like I was. It’s not a perfect job of reading, but it’s free. 😊
@@dudemorris7769 You’re right I don’t but they didn’t seem intimidated especially the clerk. If she was intimidated then why would she have given testimony that made Becky look bad.
I take real issue with a public employee working in the court being allowed to monetize a murder trial. I’m surprised there isn’t a rule against that. But rules or no rules I think it’s sick.
Yes Becky lied. She should have not even written that book. However when the verdict came in each juror was polled and asked "is that your verdict." 12 jurors replied with "yes, that's my verdict". Suddenly a juror steps up and makes changes and I'm sorry, it is not above Alex and Mr. Magoo to influence and $$$..
Is the state her defense attorney? Prosecution turns into defense attorney? Very good judge who is doing a great job upholding the rule of law ! A no mess around judge indeed! I’m confused? Shouldn’t the clerk in question retain a lawyer? Not the prosecutor to defend her ?
He's not defending her. Like most witnesses, both sides can interview them unless the person have a reason not to be interviewed by a defense attorney or the state (without immunity).
Nope Becky didn’t lie. Imported clerk would have gone straight to the judge with info like that of a clerk and bailiff giving someone a lift. I think she was approached with a deal that couldn’t be refused. She made my skin crawl with her “charming” jokes and attempt to curry favour by asking the judge for water which was an arrogant move in the guise of humour.
None of these change the fact that he killed his wife and son🥱Amazing he is trying to get way on technicality 😳Another trial means more resources, taxpayers money waste because he is guilty and another jury would still have the same verdict 🤦🏻♀️

Great judge! For the second time, you are guilty af mr murdaugh, get it through your head, you are not getting out of it this time buddy! Youve commited crimes all your life and even murder and now you are paying the price.
lol this judge and becky lied on the oath
The A team reunited . This judge speaks with full command . Alex look wired up. I hear drugs getting into prison is widespread.
😂😂
the judge was solid and thank God. Imagine if he was grantsd a new trial, there would be slimy lawyers who are already the slimiest people, chasing jury members after every guilty verdict stalking and bribing one each and every time
Can’t believe this judge is 80 yrs old what a legend that’s amazing
Super judge
Wht a fantastic judge, no messing around straight to the point, A.M is exactly where he should be,save the tax paying people a lot of money !!
I feel like this guy has like a never-ending parade of court dates LOL.
Just like all the deaths that trailed him! He refuses to just accept his fate that he wrong and guilty!
At my county courthouse phones are not allowed. But I’m sure press and attorneys are allowed to have them. Problem solved.
I was shocked to see that they were allowed to have their phones. In this day and age, even adults can't be trusted with them.
Alex smiling at Rhonda coming to testify is unreal! It’s like he’s saying “here we go, we got it!”
I would like to see this juror's bank account for a year before this allegation and a year after the hearing. Juror 741 sounds like a liar or in cahoots with Murdaugh.
Murdaugh is in his glory. Must feel like one of the boys again. Until the judge puts him back in his place. haha
This Judge puts up with 0 BS. And just watching this reminds me how I frickn love Creighton Waters. He is the man!!!
Who is this Judge?!?!?! I LOVE HER! She is fair and straight to the point without being rude👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I like how she explains her rulings …. I wish she could teach judge Gull (Richard Allen’s case) a thing or two!!! Bravo Judge!!!
She is an ex Chief Justice!!! Amazing …
Praise God
My opinion, it’s time for Mrs. Becky to seek another career other than, Clerk of Court and Author, she failed at both.
This was the correct judge to hear this case ! She definitely has a lot of experience under her belt ! Many years she has served and I don’t think you could get a more experienced judge!
Agree. She was Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of South Carolina before she retired-serving more than 10 years in that position. She also sat on the Supreme Court of SC for many years prior.
Another failure of the system. Determining the "influence on the verdict" of proven tampering is impossible. Who knows how suggestible these jurors were. If someone in a position of authority and with perceived, behind the scenes knowledge gives their opinion, one juror could easily incorporate that into their verdict without even being fully aware.
Bingo! Well said
Guilty or not- i hope his appeal is granted due to Becky's stupidity!!
If that person was gullible and I think that person was Juror 741.
I’m glad he didn’t get a new trial but that clerk is an embarrassment.
I wonder if Becky Hill discussed anything inappropriate with other jurors in other cases
Probably not she didn’t write a book.
I'm so happy he isn't getting a new trial.
If I was Becky Hill I would never go outside again
I was just thinking how it must have felt for them to find that email to the Japanese media just after she lied on the stand about it. I’d want to crawl into a hole…
@@kristinludwig4828she didn't lie. Those exhibits weren't originally sealed, then were clawed back. That was cleared up.
Good day 4 Maggie and paul. Justice served . Unlike political arena
You said it quite eloquently, I'm pretty sure I'd had not been soo nice
I’m super late watching this, but I absolutely love this judge! She puts them in their place 😂😂 I was laughing my a$$ off every time she shut down Mr Pootin 😂
These jurors are not being honest and that has become clearer with the denials of all but one for saying they did not use their phones during this hearing. So based on this, AM deserves a new trial.
Nonsense
Maybe the 1 juror is lying.
2 admitted they were on their phones.
NOTHING gets by Justice Toal. I'd be terrified to be questioned by her if I had anything to hide (Becky) 5:15:21
All I have to say after watching this is THANK THE GOOD LORD FOR THIS VERY GOOD JUDGE 🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸
Uggghhhhh defendant closing full of lies. The day would be “big” not epic. Long hard day listening to defendants testimony. Listen up people. Pay attention. Eavesdropping on the clerk unwisely talking to a bailiff is not a direction to the eavesdroppers.
County clerks shouldn’t be able to write books about trials they are apart of
Here we go again with this killer
This lady is dangerous! She should work in any court again
One word sums him up.." MONSTER"
Great Judge fair honest and the right call by the no mess around Judge
I read Becky Hill’s book on my channel when it first came out because I couldn’t find a free audio of it, I decided if I had to buy it, I might as well read it aloud in case someone else was looking for a free audio of it like I was. It’s not a perfect job of reading, but it’s free. 😊
Thank you! Going to check that out
Thank you

@@Rockstarnic88 Thank you
Why did they allow Becky Hill in the courtroom while witnesses were talking about her? Talk about intimidation.
They have too. She was dismissed and all court proceedings are public while she’s apart of the public. Also they didn’t seem intimidated.
@@blakekavenyhow do you know they didn’t seem or feel intimidated? You have no idea how they seemed or felt.
@@dudemorris7769 You’re right I don’t but they didn’t seem intimidated especially the clerk. If she was intimidated then why would she have given testimony that made Becky look bad.
I take real issue with a public employee working in the court being allowed to monetize a murder trial. I’m surprised there isn’t a rule against that. But rules or no rules I think it’s sick.
Did you object when Juan Martinez wrote a book about Jodi Arias?
@Kristinludwig4828 I agree! It’s entirely unethical, or should be.
Yes Becky lied. She should have not even written that book. However when the verdict came in each juror was polled and asked "is that your verdict." 12 jurors replied with "yes, that's my verdict". Suddenly a juror steps up and makes changes and I'm sorry, it is not above Alex and Mr. Magoo to influence and $$$..
Is the state her defense attorney? Prosecution turns into defense attorney? Very good judge who is doing a great job upholding the rule of law ! A no mess around judge indeed! I’m confused? Shouldn’t the clerk in question retain a lawyer? Not the prosecutor to defend her ?
He's not defending her. Like most witnesses, both sides can interview them unless the person have a reason not to be interviewed by a defense attorney or the state (without immunity).
Wow! Jurors watching Court TV? And whewie! That Becky is a total liar! Way to go Clerk of Court.
Nope Becky didn’t lie. Imported clerk would have gone straight to the judge with info like that of a clerk and bailiff giving someone a lift. I think she was approached with a deal that couldn’t be refused. She made my skin crawl with her “charming” jokes and attempt to curry favour by asking the judge for water which was an arrogant move in the guise of humour.
Totally think hes guilty however... Becky royally f'd up and things might turn around for Alex because of it.
None of these change the fact that he killed his wife and son🥱Amazing he is trying to get way on technicality 😳Another trial means more resources, taxpayers money waste because he is guilty and another jury would still have the same verdict 🤦🏻♀️
Why did Pootle get out of his chair and stand facing Rhonda while she swore in. Tactical intimidation or perhaps strengthening ?????
I recall the photo of decedents… I believe they were publicly televised briefly from a screen in court.
is there any sound?
He looks so happy to be there. What a mess.
Any time to get out of the jail cell is a win for him.
Justice Toal’s hair is its own vibe
I disagree 100%. That one jurist counts. Period.
