Alex Murdaugh murder saga lands right back where it started before next Lowcountry courtroom battle
The South Carolina Supreme Court has sent Alex Murdaugh’s murder case back to a lower court for retrial, marking the official start of what could become another lengthy courtroom battle in the Lowcountry.
A new court docket entry lists the filing as a "Remittitur" for Richard Alexander Murdaugh, dated May 29.
The remittitur sends the case back to the trial level, where prosecutors, defense attorneys and the court will now begin navigating the new murder proceeding. That process will likely include scheduling hearings, revisiting pretrial motions, handling evidence disagreements and setting a possible new trial date.

Murdaugh, the disgraced former South Carolina attorney whose family once held enormous legal power in the state’s Lowcountry region, was previously convicted in the 2021 murders of his wife, Maggie, and younger son, Paul, at the family’s rural hunting estate in Colleton County.
In May, the South Carolina Supreme Court ordered a retrial in the murder case, upending one of the state’s most closely watched convictions.
The formal return of the case to the lower court does not mean a retrial is imminent.
South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson previously told Fox News Digital that he hopes to retry the notorious case "quickly."

Wilson said his office is aiming to bring the case back to court within the next year, though he admitted that the timeline is not guaranteed.
"Look, I'm being aspirational when I say this, but we would like to try to get this case up before January 2027. That would be our goal," he said.

Murdaugh's lead defense attorney, Dick Harpootlian, has said the defense plans to seek a venue change, attorney-led jury questioning and potentially sequestration of jurors.
"We now have the ability to get people's social media, their Instagrams, all of that," he previously told Fox News Digital. "And we'll scour that before they ever get a chance to appear."

Murdaugh's retrial comes after the state's Supreme Court unanimously reversed the disgraced lawyer's convictions in the killings of his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, ruling that Colleton County Clerk of Court Rebecca "Becky" Hill improperly influenced jurors during the six-week trial.
Though his murder convictions and subsequent life sentences were overturned by the South Carolina Supreme Court on Wednesday, he remains in prison to serve sentences for his financial crimes.
Oregon cop shot, several dead as gunman barricades himself inside home: 'Unimaginable loss of lives'
An Oregon police officer was shot multiple times Sunday while responding to a domestic disturbance that left several people dead, authorities said.
Officers with the Sandy Police Department and Clackamas County Sheriff's Office rushed to the 39000 block of Evans Street in Sandy — about 30 miles east of Portland — just before 4 p.m. after reports of a domestic disturbance and shooting.
As officers arrived, gunfire broke out. Police returned fire, and one officer was struck multiple times.
The wounded officer was airlifted to a hospital by Life Flight and is expected to survive, according to the Sandy Police Department.
3 UTAH POLICE OFFICERS SHOT RESPONDING TO ‘DISTURBANCE’ CALL; SUSPECT IN CUSTODY
"The officer is in stable condition, and I'm extremely thankful that I can tell you that they are expected to survive," Sandy Police Chief Patrick Huskey said at a brief news conference on Sunday. "There are multiple victims deceased at this time."
Authorities have not released the number of victims or how they died.
The suspect barricaded inside the home, triggering a massive response from multiple law enforcement agencies and prompting shelter-in-place orders for nearby residents.
After several hours, the suspect surrendered shortly before 8 p.m. and was taken into custody without injury, police said.
The deaths are being investigated as a homicide, according to the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office.

"Our thoughts are with the recovering officer, the homicide victims, their families, the entire Sandy community," the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office said in a statement. "We are also thinking of the first responders who faced significant danger on Sunday."
The agency added that it is providing full support to the Sandy Police Department as investigators work to navigate the aftermath of the incident.
Following the suspect's arrest, authorities lifted the shelter-in-place order and said there was no ongoing threat to the community.
In a statement, Sandy Mayor Kathleen Walker called the shooting an "unimaginable loss of lives" and urged residents to support victims' families and first responders.

"This tragedy reaches beyond the neighborhood where it happened. It reaches the families and friends of the victims, and the neighbors who witnessed the shootings and aftermath," Walker said.
"We honor our city police officers who answered the call, and the officer that was wounded. It shakes our community to its core."
Sandy Police told Fox News Digital they had no additional information to share.
The Multnomah County Sheriff's Office and the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
Twice-deported illegal immigrant accused of firing toward Texas homes during neighborhood dispute
A twice-deported Mexican national with a prior attempted homicide conviction was arrested in Texas over Memorial Day weekend after authorities say he fired dozens of rounds at neighbors during a standoff that ended with a SWAT team taking him into custody.
Juan Ayala Montero, 60, was arrested May 24 in Montgomery County and charged with felony deadly conduct involving the discharge of a firearm.
According to the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, Ayala was armed with a long gun and actively firing rounds at multiple people in the Kings Colony neighborhood when deputies responded to the scene.
When a large law enforcement presence arrived, Ayala retreated into his home and barricaded himself inside, authorities said.
REPEAT OFFENDER FREED AFTER SWAT STANDOFF TIED TO THREE SHOOTINGS IN ONE MONTH: REPORT
The standoff ended after the arrival of the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office SWAT team, at which point Ayala surrendered and was taken into custody without further incident.
Investigators recovered approximately 31 shell casings from the scene and said evidence showed multiple rounds were fired toward homes and residents.
Witnesses told investigators they attempted to de-escalate the situation and convince Ayala to put down the weapon, but he continued firing, authorities said.
TEEN SUSPECT TIED TO 12 ATTACKS IN CHAOTIC AUSTIN SHOOTING SPREE IDENTIFIED AS ILLEGAL ALIEN
Initial 911 calls indicated there were multiple victims. Investigators later determined only one person, a 17-year-old male, had been struck by gunfire. The teenager was treated and released from a local hospital.
Authorities said the shooting stemmed from an altercation between Ayala and the teenager.
The juvenile was later charged with making a false report to a peace officer after investigators determined information he initially provided to law enforcement was untruthful and hindered the investigation.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced Monday that Ayala is also the subject of an immigration detainer and federal detainer after authorities determined he was in the country illegally.
Ayala, a Mexican citizen, had previously been deported from the U.S. twice and illegally reentered the country multiple times.
He was convicted of attempted homicide and criminal trespass while living in the U.S. illegally.
ICE ARRESTS ILLEGAL MIGRANT ACCUSED OF ENTERING THE COUNTRY 6 TIMES
An immigration judge ordered him removed on Aug. 31, 1999, and he was deported to Mexico on Aug. 30, 2000.
After allegedly returning illegally, he was encountered again by immigration officials following a 2006 arrest by the Dallas Police Department. He was transferred into ICE custody and removed to Mexico that same day.
Authorities allege Ayala illegally entered the U.S. for a third time on an unknown date before his most recent arrest.
EXCLUSIVE: FOX TOURS ICE DETENTION FACILITY; MANAGER HOPES TO 'DISPEL' 'FALSE NARRATIVES'
Montgomery County jail records show Ayala is being held on an $80,000 bond on the deadly conduct charge. The records also show an ICE hold and federal detainer have been lodged against him.
Authorities credited the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office's participation in ICE's 287(g) program with helping quickly identify Ayala's immigration status and secure a detainer.
"The arrest and placement of an immigration detainer on this violent criminal illegal alien is another example of the positive impact that the 287(g) program has on increasing public safety in our local communities," ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Houston Acting Field Office Director Gabriel Martinez said in a statement.
"By participating in the program, it provides our state and local law enforcement partners with another tool to prevent dangerous criminal illegal aliens like Ayala from being released back into the community where they will likely reoffend," Martinez added.
The next frontier: Washington grapples with its latest space oddity
Isaac Asimov famously declared that he didn’t believe in "flying saucers." Asimov countered that he believed in "evidence" and "observation."
"I’ll believe anything, no matter how wild and ridiculous, if there’s evidence for it," Asimov said. "The wilder and more ridiculous something is however, the firmer and more solid the evidence should be."
The Trump administration released another batch of UFO files recently. This is part of making good on a promise to release videos and documents related to UAP, unidentified aerial phenomena. Bipartisan lawmakers pressed President Donald Trump to make good on this promise back in March. This release is the second group of material publicized by the government.
And what’s in it?
NEW UFO FILES REVEAL STARTLING REPORTS
A space oddity. Some 57 years in the making.
"They thought it was something, you know, penetrating the spacecraft, if you know what I mean," said Apollo 12 Command Module 12 pilot about what he and his colleagues saw in outer space in late 1969. That’s one snippet of audio which is now public.
The baffled astronauts tried to unravel a cosmic conundrum when they spotted weird beams of light bouncing around their spacecraft more than half a century ago.
"The streaks I saw were ones that I saw on the horizontal," said Apollo 12 Lunar Module Pilot Alan Bean. "The horizontal streaks were always a little bit above the center."
These were clips of audiotape the government recently dumped. Tales from tape never heard before about what some of humankind’s first space explorers experienced and observed when they slipped the surly bonds of Earth.
The president pledged to publicize as much unexplained material as possible.
"It's been in the minds of people for a long time," said President Trump in late April. "And I think some of it's going to be very interesting to people."
It’s a document dump that is out of this world. But it’s hard to quantify and understand exactly what it all means. Let alone if it provides "evidence," as Asimov would say, "which explains something, which to some, could be "ridiculous."
No one knows exactly what these videos and documents reveal. Especially when it comes to demonstrating that UFOs exist or that there are visitors to Earth from another planet.
But that doesn’t mean that the information isn’t remarkable.
EX-PENTAGON OFFICIAL SAYS UAP FILES REVEAL 'TREASURE TROVE' OF INTELLIGENCE DATING BACK TO THE 1940S
"Virtually speechless!" is how one military pilot characterized strange "orange orbs" which materialized near his helicopter during a flight last year.
Then there was a stationary pill-shaped object in the Middle East zipping off at ludicrous speed.
Then there was a celestial trinity of objects synchronously hovering over water in Iran.
One lawmaker who has long called for UAP transparency isn’t starstruck at the releases. Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., was skeptical before the Pentagon put out the latest tranche of information.
"The stuff they're dropping right now is just Deep State classic," said Burchett. "They won't show us some of the stuff that we've seen. They're going to show stuff that is easily identifiable."
But this information is far from easy to identify, quantify or even understand. The government can explain some weird sightings. At a 2022 House hearing on UAP, the Pentagon demonstrated how light refracting through certain military visual aids created an optical illusion. But the stories are legion about what can’t be explained or defined. The difference now is that Congress mandated the Pentagon create an office to document and study UAP.
And the government either can’t – or doesn’t want to explain a lot of what’s out there.
"We have been stonewalled. We have been blocked. We have had witnesses intimidated," said Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., on Fox. She asserted that former workers at the Pentagon UAP office were even "attacking" some witnesses and whistleblowers who have come forward.
But here’s the other challenge: understanding exactly what documents and videos the government has in its possession.
"This is not an easy thing to do. There's not one huge repository of all of these documents and videos and photos," said Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Mo., on Fox.
Burlison is now suggesting the government "reverse engineer" what they find at certain "crash locations" or where people have discovered weird physical material here on terra firma.
"The White House and the DNI (Director of National Intelligence) is now looking at places to go investigate," said Burlison on Fox.
So people sift through the files in a quest to unearth evidence that is definitely un-Earth. But more information often yields more questions. And that’s to say nothing of the other-worldly expectations set the pending release of files and information. The bar is high. And while the release of information is intriguing, no one quite knows what it all means.
If you wanted proof of ET or revelations of a government conspiracy, you’re better off watching an old VHS tape.
We just don’t know what these files mean. And, in many cases, even are.
The document dump isn’t a nothing-burger. But a something-burger. Still, that doesn’t sate the appetite for those who are on a quest for the truth. And it likely just angers those who are convinced the government has something to hide.
TRUMP ADMIN RELEASES HIGHLY ANTICIPATED FILES DOCUMENTING UFOS, 'EXTRATERRESTRIAL LIFE'
On Fox, Burlison said he "personally" experienced "frustration" about declassifying information. But Burlison cautioned the Trump Administration against holding material back.
"I’ve seen those kind of videos," said Burlison. "I’m telling the administration through you at this moment that if they don’t release those, then I have the capabilities of getting those videos released."
In the meantime, people are sorting through the recently released material, trying to decode it.
"There's a whole bunch of big ones out my window now. It's just bright. Looks like the Fourth of July out around the window," exclaimed one astronaut in a just released soundbite.
So we’re accumulating a lot of "evidence" and "observation." Kind of what Isaac Asimov was looking for. But signs of life from other worlds? Not necessarily. This is why the Pentagon says there’s no evidence that the videos reveal something from outer space. But the military concedes that it can’t explain everything.
So the evidence will pile up.
Figuring out what it means is not the final frontier. But the next frontier.
Soros-backed nonprofit accuses NJ Gov Sherrill of spreading 'MAGA propaganda' on ICE detainees
A Soros-backed nonprofit organized a demonstration outside of New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill’s office on Monday afternoon, saying the Democratic governor is spreading "MAGA propaganda" and not doing enough for the migrants detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at Delaney Hall in Newark, N.J.
The protest reflected the backlash that Sherrill is facing by far-left members of her own party. On its donation page, Cooper River Indivisible directs donors to the politically powerful Indivisible Project, a 501(c)(4) nonprofit group that has been very active in backing Democratic politicians.
They work closely with Indivisible Civics, their 501(c)(3) sister organization.
Indivisible receives money from the Open Society Action Fund, a 501(c)(4), which is backed by notorious Democratic donor George Soros.
MEET THE FAR-LEFT GROUPS FUNDING ANTI-DOGE PROTESTS AT GOP OFFICES ACROSS THE COUNTRY
"WE ARE HEADING TO MIKIE SHERRILL'S OFFICE — to demand that she answer for the mess that she has made," the event’s sign-up page reads on the Mobilize.us platform.
"Governor Sherrill's response has caused serious harm inside and outside of Delaney Hall. Peaceful protestors and journalists have been arrested, injured, and had their constitutional rights violated, all while GeoGroup Guards and ICE continue to retaliate against strikers," the announcement continued.
The group is calling on Sherrill to meet with illegal migrants who are detained at the Delaney Hall ICE facility and release young, old or sick detainees. "GeoGroup Guards" is a reference to the security personnel hired by the government contractor, Geo Group Inc., that is running the facility as part of its national contract with ICE.
SOMETHING TO HIDE? ICE UNDER FIRE FOR SUBSTANDARD CONDITIONS AT FOR-PROFIT DETENTION CENTER
Cooper River indivisible also accused Sherrill of "inciting violence by siccing the police on peaceful protestors" and said she is spreading "MAGA" propaganda after more than a week of protesting at the ICE facility.
In 2023, Open Society Foundations, through the Open Society Action Fund, issued a two-year grant of $3 million to the Indivisible organization. The grant was "to support the grantee's social welfare activities," according to the Open Society Foundations’ website.
Indivisible has also played a lead role in the organization of the "No Kings" protests.
ASRA NOMANI: THE $2.1 BILLION MACHINE BEHIND 'SPONTANEOUS' ANTI-TRUMP PROTESTS
According to the Open Society Foundations' website, Soros "has given away more than $32 billion of his personal fortune" to the foundations. His son Alex Soros serves as chairman of the board.
"We support a wide range of independent organizations that work to deepen civic engagement through peaceful democratic participation, a hallmark of any vibrant society and a right protected by the Constitution," a spokesperson from Open Society Foundations told Fox News Digital. "Our grantees make their own decisions about their work, consistent with the law and the terms of their grant agreements."
Protests at Delaney Hall have exploded over the past week. Contrary to the allegations by the demonstrations, local law enforcement hasn’t been involved in arresting agitators or squashing often violent riots but New Jersey State Police did arrest rioters on Friday night.
On Saturday morning, Sherrill said that state police were present at the riot to protect the agitators from ICE agents, but the violent battle that took place the night before was mainly between local law enforcement and the rioters, according to first-hand witness by Fox News Digital.
State troopers, including some on horseback, deployed heavy riot control tactics on Friday night, including noise bombs, tear gas grenades, pepper spray and riot shields in an attempt to disperse the mob. The police had established barriers for the zone earlier in the afternoon, which rioters commandeered to fight back against police.
"My top priority is keeping New Jerseyans and our communities safe – and an increased ICE surge in the area outside of Delaney Hall is a threat to public safety," Sherrill posted to X Saturday morning. "We know that lives would be at risk were that to happen. And I will not accept that risk."
By Saturday afternoon, the New Jersey governor held a press conference, issuing a list of demands to the Department of Homeland Security, including visitation for families and medical care for the sick and vulnerable.
A source at DHS told Fox News Digital that the department wouldn’t accept her demands, and that visitation was only suspended due to the violent riots. The source also said that ICE operations will continue as normal now that Delaney Hall is secure, allowing visitations to resume.
Fox News Digital reached out to Indivisible and Sherrill but did not receive responses.
Fox News Poll: 'Resilient discontent' defines the US mood at 250th anniversary
As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, American voters remain attached to the country, even as a majority describe it in negative terms and many believe Americans are more divided by their values than united by them.
That’s according to the latest Fox News national survey released Monday.
When asked what one word best describes the United States today, two-thirds of voters choose a negative word such as "failing," "divided," "struggling," or "corrupt." That includes nearly twice as many Democrats as Republicans.
Only about one-quarter of voters suggest a positive word, such as "freedom," "great," "powerful," or "strong," and more than four times as many Republicans as Democrats use those terms.
FOX NEWS POLL: VOTERS SEE AI REGULATION AS URGENT, RANK SAFEGUARDS AHEAD OF INNOVATION
By a 16-point margin, a larger number of voters believe Americans are mostly separated by different values (58%) than bound by shared values (42%). Majorities of Democrats (62%) and independents (65%) think Americans are separated by different values, while views among Republicans are split (49% shared vs. 50% different values).
Even so, the survey finds broad agreement on some fundamental American principles. When describing the U.S., more than 8 in 10 voters say it’s important to emphasize national unity and shared values (85%) as well as U.S. democratic principles (83%). Three-quarters (77%) prioritize highlighting the country’s multiculturalism and diversity. Of the three, there’s relatively wide partisan disagreement on multiculturalism, with 88% of Democrats viewing it as an important descriptor of the country compared to 67% of Republicans — a 21-point gap.
And while national attachment remains strong, it has noticeably eroded compared to two decades ago when 93% said they would rather live in the U.S. than any other country. Today, that number is 81%, while 19% say they would rather live elsewhere — a share that has more than tripled since 2004 and 2005.
The desire to leave is especially pronounced among voters under age 30 and Democrats, as about 3 in 10 of each group would rather live outside the U.S. By contrast, almost all Republicans (96%) and most voters ages 45 and over would stay in the U.S. (86%).
Enthusiasm about the country’s upcoming 250th anniversary clearly reflects the partisan gap: more than twice as many Republicans (74%) as Democrats (35%) are excited about the milestone. Fully 84% of MAGA Republicans are excited compared to 57% of non-MAGA Republicans. More than half of veterans (55%), White men without a college degree (63%), and White evangelical Christians (70%) are also excited.

"These findings suggest a national mood best described as ‘resilient discontent,’" says Republican pollster Daron Shaw, who conducts Fox News surveys with Democratic counterpart Chris Anderson. "The growing share who would rather live elsewhere combined with stark partisan differences in enthusiasm for the country's anniversary, suggests commitment to the nation is becoming less automatic and more conditional."
Conducted May 15-18, 2026, under the direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R), this Fox News survey includes interviews with a sample of 1,002 registered voters randomly selected from a national voter file. Respondents spoke with live interviewers on landlines (109) and cellphones (635) or completed the survey online after receiving a text (258). Results based on the full sample have a margin of sampling error of ±3 percentage points. Sampling error for results among subgroups is higher. In addition to sampling error, question wording and order can influence results. Weights are generally applied to age, race, education, and area variables to ensure the demographics are representative of the registered voter population. Sources for developing weight targets include the most recent American Community Survey, Fox News Voter Analysis, and voter file data.

Group of teenage campers stalked by a group of Sasquatches in Idaho over Memorial Day Weekend
A group of 10 teenagers, almost all of them 18, from Parma, Idaho, took the two-hour or so trip to Payette National Forest in McCall, Idaho, to go camping for Memorial Day weekend. While there, they claimed to have had encounters with, and some of them even witnessed, several Sasquatches.
The witness who submitted the claim to The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization, Kyera, says that the first sighting came on Friday night when her friend Abi had seen a tall, dark figure just a couple of yards behind their friends Daniel and Baylee’s tent.
Abi kept this information to herself until Monday morning "because she didn’t want to freak anybody out. She didn’t know it at the time, but the weekend was only going to produce more encounters with the suspected group of Sasquatches.
On Saturday around midday, an argument between two of the friends caused another of the ten friends, Colton, to walk into the tree line to get away from the arguing. Kyera decided to go look for him and as she wandered through the trees she heard what "sounded like something was walking with me in the tree line and whistling at me in different directions to get me lost in the forest."
NEW EVIDENCE SURFACES IN NORTHEAST OHIO BIGFOOT FLAP INCLUDING ALLEGED TRACKS AND UNEXPLAINED HOWLS
After a few minutes of looking for Colton, she turned back only for her to run into him and find out that he had gone back to camp not long after walking into the tree line. At the time, she thought the whistling she heard was just her friend.
Later that night into early the next morning, a group of four was sitting around the campfire when they heard branches breaking behind one of them. They then heard coyotes howling and decided that the coyotes must have been what they heard making the noise in the forest.
At around 3 a.m. on Sunday, while everyone was sleeping, one of them heard what sounded like someone trying to start their car. That was followed by "really aggressive and rhythmic knocking," which they wrote off as a woodpecker. If only they had known that there was likely a group of Bigfoot in the area.
Then, later in the day on Sunday, Daniel "saw a figure on 2 legs." He had gone to use the bathroom when he came in contact with a 9-foot-tall creature "with blank reflective eyes" that was walking toward him.
He ran back to get a couple of his buddies. One of them was Kyera’s boyfriend, Colton, who had packed a rifle for the trip. They set out to find the 9-foot-tall creature.

"They let off warning shots and returned to camp and said they were heading to our friends’ camp down the way because they heard the ‘person’ run that direction. They headed to our friends’ camp and later stated they were circled by 3 or more creatures in the woods," Kyera wrote.
"Our friends, Dillion and Sabrina, were camping off an abandoned road. They later returned and Daniel and Colton said they saw three creatures that stood 9 feet tall with dark fur and standing on 2 legs with blank reflective eyes. They described it as a human looking animal that was too tall to be a person and too fast to be human. They stated the creatures knew how to hide behind the trees and were circling them and trying to separate them from each other. Colton then stated he shot one of them, and then shot off 5 warning shots."
They heard more knocking. They found handprints on a couple of the vehicles and footprints around their camp. They also claim to have found, before packing it up and calling it a weekend, broken trees "put together as sideways crosses all in a wide circle with what appears to be teepees made out of trees."
BFRO Investigator Matthew Moneymaker spoke with two of the witnesses by phone and concluded that "They are telling the truth. The only question is whether it was a misinterpretation."
He added that four out of the 10 on the camping trip had visual sightings in the daylight around their camp. The rest heard sounds at some point and, given that there is a history of Bigfoot activity in the area, Moneymaker said, "it is pretty obvious some sasquatches were there, at least three of them."
At least three of them, indeed. It’s this level of confidence that got me into Bigfoot in the first place. The lack of any real evidence shouldn’t deter anyone from making definitive statements like these. Believe them or not, they know what they saw and what they heard.
Police hunt suspect after recent business school graduate killed in downtown shooting
A bright young man who recently graduated from Indiana University's Kelley School of Business Indianapolis had his life cut short when he was murdered Thursday.
Brett Scrogham, 23, is the victim of the crime. He planned to join his family for an Indianapolis Indians baseball game downtown last week when he parked his car inside a public garage, according to WXIN.
Witnesses heard a gunshot and saw a man running from the garage. Police then found a wounded Scrogham.
He died from his injuries Saturday, police said.
Indianapolis authorities have not issued a formal description of the suspect, but said in a statement to Fox News Digital that they are "making meaningful progress in this investigation."
Scrogham was honored as a top 100 undergraduate student by Indiana University Indianapolis last year, according to a post on his LinkedIn page.
"Honored to be recognized among such great peers! I’ve been blessed to be surrounded by so much experience and knowledge at the Kelley School of Business, and I look forward to the opportunities IUI continues to offer!" he said on the platform.
According to his LinkedIn page, he was a development analyst at a commercial real-estate firm.
MASS SHOOTING NEAR INDIANA UNIVERSITY INJURES 9, NO ARRESTS MADE YET
"He was extremely intelligent," a friend of Scrogham's who knew him through college and their faith lives told Fox News Digital. "I figured he'd be running a company in a couple of years. He seemed to know everyone, [was] friends with everyone."
The last time Stewart saw Scrogham was at his recent wedding.
"He could've been on 'Dancing With the Stars,'" Stewart said. "The way he knew how to swing dance was crazy. The latter half of the wedding he stole the show."
SHOOTING INSIDE INDIANA SUPERMARKET LEAVES 3 DEAD, WITH 2 OFFICERS SUSTAINING INJURIES
"He was really smart, really into his faith," Stewart continued. "Just incredible that he would be the one, of all people, to be a victim of senseless violence."
Meanwhile, violent crime in Indianapolis has become a hotly-debated issue.
"Today, I am saddened to learn of the passing of the victim of last week’s random act of violence. My prayers are with the family of this young man and all who knew him," said the city's Democratic Mayor Joe Hogsett in a statement on X. "Violence anywhere in our community is unacceptable — especially when it claims the life of an innocent person simply enjoying the amenities that make our city great."
He praised the work of local authorities and said detectives will "continue to work diligently to hold the perpetrators of this crime accountable and will not rest until a suspect is in custody."
Hogsett urged the community to come together to share information to help the investigation.

Maclin, Matt and Jeff Hardy, Richard Holliday, Amazing Red, Rich Swann, Megan Bayne and others will also be on the card.
The Hardys released a statement to Fox News Digital last month about their participation.
"My brother and I are both very excited to be headlining Steve Maclin and Deonna Purrazzo's very special Tunnel to Towers event. Tunnel to Towers is a very special organization that helps take care of people who have been injured on the job protecting us - people like the military, first responders and police," the Hardys said. "We are very grateful for all of these people's services and efforts in keeping us all safe and healthy. We look forward to raising as much money as we possibly can."
The event begins at 7 p.m. ET at the Rahway Rec Center.
Five moments that made Odell Beckham Jr one of NFL's most polarizing figures
Odell Beckham Jr. is back with the New York Giants, the team that drafted him 12th overall in 2014 and where he became one of the most polarizing stars in the league.
Just a year after signing a five-year, $95 million extension, Beckham was traded to the Cleveland Browns in 2019. Seven years later, he’s back, and we’ve come up with his five most notable moments in a Giants uniform.
Honorable mentions include saying he was "not having fun anymore" after a personal slow start in 2016, and then all but saying Eli Manning was the problem with the Giants offense in 2018 during an interview alongside Lil Wayne; although he was probably right.

Beckham’s talent was undeniable, but it was constantly put on the backburner as the constant talk around him was mostly about on-field outbursts and questionable comments. But on Oct. 16, 2016, Beckham caught two touchdowns – one for 75 yards in the third, and another for 66 yards with less than 90 seconds left that wound up being the game-winner. His 222 receiving yards from that afternoon are his career high, and that fourth quarter score gave MetLife Stadium one of its biggest pops.
Beckham got a chance to mimic an act that every Giants fan wishes they could do. After scoring a touchdown in Philadelphia against the Eagles in 2017, Beckham got on all fours and lifted his leg, pretending to urinate in the end zone in one of his more odd celebrations. His reasoning? "I’m a dog, so I acted like a dog."
Yes, he was fined.
Beckham had become a rather controversial figure in the game rather quickly thanks to some insane catches and outbursts, but this one may be his most notable. After Eli Manning threw an interception against the Washington Redskins in 2016, Beckham swung his helmet at a kicking net, which returned with a shot in the face.
Two weeks later, in the aforementioned game against the Ravens, he proposed to the kicking net. By his reaction, it said yes.
ODELL BECKHAM JR SIGNS WITH GIANTS IN BIG BLUE REUNION
At the time, Josh Norman was an elite corner for the 14-0 Carolina Panthers, and Beckham was an elite receiver in New York. The two traded barbs all week long and were physical from the jump. When Beckham dropped a wide open 52-yard touchdown, Norman took advantage and got well in Beckham’s head.
Both players were called for plenty of unsportsmanlike conduct calls with punches, tackles, and plenty other extracurricular activities, somehow not getting ejected, and it finished with Beckham headhunting Norman from several yards away.
Beckham got revenge with a game-tying touchdown and an Allen Iverson-like stepover over Norman, but the damage had already been done, as the receiver was suspended for a game.
No questions asked, this is the best catch ever made. He caught a Hail Mary with three fingers for a touchdown while being tackled.
It created the monster and forever changed the trajectory of Odell Beckham Jr. as we know him.
