LIVE! Alex Murdaugh: Could New DNA Evidence Change the Case? GiGi McKelvey Reports from Court

Josh Ritter is joined by GiGi McKelvey of ‪@PrettyLiesAndAlibis‬ to break down today's first hearing in Alex Murdaugh's new murder trial proceedings. Murdaugh was back in court for the first time since being granted a new trial, as his attorneys argued for additional DNA testing, a change of venue, and other key pretrial issues. GiGi was inside the courtroom and joins Josh to discuss what happened, the legal significance of today's arguments, and what stood out from inside the hearing. Josh and GiGi break down the biggest developments from today's hearing, including the defense's push for DNA testing, the battle over where the retrial should be held, and what today's rulings could mean as the case moves toward trial. Plus, Josh will break down today's federal hearing involving Luigi Mangione. A judge addressed scheduling and jury selection ahead of Mangione's federal trial, while the defense continues navigating parallel state and federal prosecutions. Josh explains what happened in court today, what it means for the road ahead, and the legal issues likely to shape both cases. 0:00 - Intro 3:13 - Welcome GiGi 3:47 - Alex Murdaugh 42:07 - Goodbye GiGi 45:07 - Luigi Mangione 50:22 - Chatrie v United States 1;00:39 - Announcements About Joshua Ritter: Joshua Ritter is a criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor providing legal commentary and analysis on the nation's biggest true crime cases.
