Judge Clifton Newman will screen the fourth batch of potential jurors in the trial Tuesday morning. Newman interviewed three other panels Monday morning, asking potential jurors how much they know of the events surrounding the Murdaugh murders. They were asked whether they know Murdaugh, or if they have any connection to the Murdaugh dynasty.
Outside the Colleton County Courthouse, observers were still waiting for the true-crime fanatics that many expect to overwhelm Walterboro.
