Alex Murdaugh's Judge Let His Lawyers Test THIS Before Trial

Alex Murdaugh was back in a South Carolina courtroom in a suit and tie on October 16, getting ready for his double murder retrial. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins me to go through what Judge Debra McCaslin decided.

The defense can test unidentified DNA from Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails and phone, over the state's objection that it could use up the samples. The state has to turn over original crime-scene scan data. The defense doesn't get ballistics records from unrelated shootings.

McCaslin also put on the record that Murdaugh failed a polygraph about hiding financial records, after his lawyer had claimed he passed one.

Prosecutors won't say whether a grand jury is examining a police officer friend of Murdaugh's. Eric explains what each ruling means for the April 5 trial.
