  • Criminal Probe Delays Ethics Hearing on Becky Hill’s Alleged Misconduct in Murdaugh Trial
    Nov 12 2024
    A highly anticipated ethics hearing into Becky Hill, the former Colleton County clerk of court who gained national attention during Alex Murdaugh's murder trial, has been postponed indefinitely due to a pending criminal investigation. The S.C. Ethics Commission, which had scheduled the hearing for Dec. 19, cited the investigation by the South Carolina Attorney General's office as the reason for the delay. The ethics hearing was expected to shed light on 76 alleged violations, which the commission had found probable cause for in May. These include accusations that Hill misused her position for personal gain and to promote her book about the Murdaugh trial, "Behind the Doors of Justice." Hill’s legal team requested a postponement in light of the investigation, and commission staff did not object. The Attorney General’s office and the Ethics Commission declined to comment. A legal source familiar with the Ethics Commission explained that pausing proceedings during a criminal probe is standard practice. “It prevents an accused official from having to give up their right against self-incrimination in an ethics hearing while potentially wanting to invoke it during a criminal investigation,” the source said. Hill resigned from her $101,256-a-year position in March, several months after releasing her book, which provided a behind-the-scenes look at Murdaugh's six-week trial. In February 2023, Alex Murdaugh was convicted of murdering his wife, Maggie, and son Paul, and is now serving two life sentences. The ethics charges against Hill include multiple instances of alleged self-enrichment. In September 2022 and March 2023, she purportedly awarded herself $2,500 bonuses. Hill is also accused of negotiating with a media company to use the Colleton County courthouse in exchange for promoting her book. Additional accusations involve misusing county funds to buy office decorations, gifts, and meals for courthouse staff and directing payments to a company with which she had a business relationship. Hill's conduct during the Murdaugh trial has also come under fire. Murdaugh’s lawyers, Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin, have claimed Hill tried to influence the jury to reach a quick guilty verdict, allegedly to boost her book sales. While Hill denied these allegations, they led to a court hearing in which Circuit Judge Jean Toal determined that, although Hill’s comments to jurors were improper, there wasn't enough evidence to prove they affected the verdict. Hill's reputation took another hit last December when she admitted to plagiarizing parts of her book from an unpublished BBC report on the Murdaugh case. The book was subsequently pulled from publication, and Hill’s co-author denied any knowledge of the plagiarism, which, although not a crime, is widely regarded as a severe breach in the literary community. Despite these controversies, Hill had initially emerged from Murdaugh’s trial as a helpful, well-regarded presence. Even South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson, who attended the trial, publicly praised her, affectionately calling her “Becky Boo.” Due to Wilson’s ties to Hill, Rick Hubbard, the 11th Judicial Circuit Solicitor, and his deputy Suzanne Mayes were assigned to assist in the case, though Wilson’s office maintains oversight. Hill's legal and ethical troubles have tarnished her once-strong reputation. The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division confirmed it is investigating allegations of jury tampering and misuse of office. With the ongoing criminal investigation, the postponed ethics hearing marks another twist in the complex saga surrounding Becky Hill’s role in one of the most high-profile murder trials in recent history. **#BeckyHill #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #SCPolitics #LegalNews #EthicsInvestigation #SCAttorneyGeneral** Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
