Is local court part of the us court system?

Although law professionals will tell you it is a separate system, it is not. The US Supreme court has ruled that these systems are separate in so much as they are bound by the State constitution, and the Federal constitutions as well as the rulings of the US Supreme Court. State courts cannot divert from a Federal Court ruling; if they do the US Federal Court system will overturn the ruling.

No. The US Supreme Court only exercises appellate jurisdiction over criminal cases originating in the state and federal court systems; they do not hold trials. The federal court of original jurisdiction (trial court) for a murder case would be the US District Court overseeing the territory in which the crime occurred.
