默多克重审：检方按期回应辩方“隐匿证据”指控，10月16日听证
据《格林维尔新闻报》报道，南卡罗来纳州总检方10月8日在法官设定的正午期限前提交动议，回应亚历克斯·默多克辩护团队关于检方“隐匿证据”的指控。
在动议中，总检长办公室称辩方的一项请求是“钓鱼式取证”，并反驳了调查人员隐瞒证据的说法。辩方要求对DNA进行独立复检——玛吉·默多克手部和手机上检出非家族男性DNA（由Othram公司分析），并要求调取手机取证的原始文件，州方称其说法“虚假”、“凭空捏造”。
辩方还提出涉及耶马西警察局长格雷格·亚历山大销毁凶器的指控，州方表示就大陪审团调查“无法证实也无法否认”。
相关动议的听证定于10月16日举行，重审暂定2027年4月5日当周开庭。
Prosecutors Answer Murdaugh Defense's 'Hidden Evidence' Claims Ahead of Retrial Hearing
South Carolina prosecutors on October 8 filed a motion responding to Alex Murdaugh's defense team's claim that the state hid evidence, beating a noon deadline set by the judge in his retrial case, the Greenville News reported.
In the filing, the Attorney General's office dismissed one of the defense's requests as a "fishing expedition" and pushed back on allegations that investigators concealed material. The defense is seeking independent DNA retesting — a non-family male DNA profile was found on Maggie Murdaugh's hand and phone, analyzed by Othram Inc. — as well as original files from cellphone forensics, which the state called "false" and "manufactured" claims.
The defense has also raised allegations involving Yemassee Police Chief Greg Alexander over the alleged destruction of a weapon, which the state said it could "neither confirm nor deny" in relation to a grand jury investigation.
A hearing on the motions is set for October 16, and the retrial is tentatively scheduled for the week of April 5, 2027.
