The Spin

Narrative A

Rebecca Hill completely violated her duty as clerk of court by trying to pressure jurors into ruling against Alex Murdaugh and even disqualifying a juror who she believed might rule in his favor. She obviously was interested in pushing a quick trial and a guilty verdict so that she could rake in cash on a book deal. Hill’s actions disgraced South Carolina’s justice system and completely violated Alex Murdaugh’s civil right to a fair trial.

The Daily Beast

Narrative B

Rebecca Hill has an outstanding sense of ethics and would never disgrace her elected position just to profit off a book deal. Murdaugh’s attorneys have ignored key facts about Ms. Hill’s book and the context behind it. This is a reckless legal move.
