A man convicted twice of murdering his girlfriend's husband on the beach in Myrtle Beach back in 1998 will have his appeal heard before the South Carolina Supreme Court Tuesday.
John Boyd Frazier was given a life sentence when he was first convicted in 2000 of murdering 24-year-old Brent Poole as Poole and his wife Renee walked on the beach.
Prosecutors said Frazier and Renee Poole were having an affair and planned her husband's murder.
Frazier appealed, and in 2004 the SC Supreme Court said Frazier didn't get a fair trial because the judge didn't allow the defense to present certain evidence.
The new trial was held in 2005 and frazier was again convicted, this time sentenced to 30 years.
Renee Poole is serving a life sentence for her husband's murder.
