Law enforcement 'destroyed' evidence that could clear Alex Murdaugh, and relied on the 'expert' opinion of a retired police officer with no scientific credentials to tie him to the murders of his wife and son, the disgraced legal scion's lawyers claim.The claims were made in a filing by Murdaugh's attorneys in Collecton County Court on Wednesday, and obtained by DailyMail.com. It asserts that South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) destroyed the white T-shirt that Murdaugh was wearing on the night he claims he found the bodies of Maggie, 52, and Paul, 22, by dog kennels on the family's hunting estate.In addition to the murders, the disgraced former attorney faces nearly 100 additional criminal charges, ranging from a botched 'suicide for hire plot' to several alleged instances of money laundering and embezzlement.
