United StatesAlex Murdaugh, a disgraced South Carolina attorney previously convicted of murdering his wife and son, now faces a retrial after his convictions were overturned. His legal team is seeking assistance from Othram Inc., a Texas-based forensic DNA firm, to analyze unknown male DNA found under his wife's fingernails. Murdaugh's lawyers argue this could exonerate him, while prosecutors claim prior tests showed only a partial DNA profile insufficient for identification. Othram has previously aided in solving high-profile cases such as the 2022 Idaho murders and the 2023 Maryland killings.
