COJ #21: Randy Murdaugh Hits the Reset Button and Russell Laffitte Has Bills to Pay

One week after Alex Murdaugh was sentenced to life for killing his wife and son, Murdaugh Murders Podcast co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — and everyone’s favorite attorney Eric Bland — take a look at the questions surrounding a juror’s connections to a witness, the problems with the judicial selection process in South Carolina and the need for reform and Russell Laffitte’s overdue bills. It’s been over a week since Alex Murdaugh was sentenced to two consecutive life terms for killing his wife and son, and there hasn’t been a break in the news. On Monday, federal Judge Richard Gergel denied Russell Laffitte’s motion for a new trial. Now his case moves to the appeals phase, which Russell will go through without the help of his original attorneys Bart Daniel and Matt Austin because on Thursday Bart and Matt filed a motion to dump Russell. Apparently Alex’s co-conspirator hasn’t paid the balance of his legal bill at Nelson Mullins. According to our amazing co-host Eric Bland, Russell will be sentenced in May or June of this year and, after reading Judge Gergel’s scathing order Monday, we’re all expecting he’ll receive a significant punishment. We have a really interesting show for you today. We talked about the unwarranted criticism surrounding James the Juror and his connection to the Colleton County Sheriff’s Office, Dick Harpootlian’s Good Ole Boy fragility and the need for judicial reform in this state. We all want to drink from the same Cup Of Justice — and it starts with learning about our legal system. What questions do y’all have for us?

TSP #135 - State Grand Jury Impaneled in Scott Spivey Case And Can SC Trust AG Alan Wilson Not to Interfere?

Investigative Journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell provide context around the announcement that Prosecutor Barry Barnette impaneled a state grand jury surrounding events of Scott Spivey’s 2023 killing... and alleged police coverup. On today’s episode Mandy and Liz explore Alan Wilson’s motivations in deciding to not initially prosecute Spivey’s killers and whether he can be trusted not to interfere with Barnette’s decisions. Also on the show, former South Carolina legislator and current pedophile RJ May is appealing his 17-year sentence for distributing child sexual abuse material. May — who pleaded guilty as part of a plea agreement — is claiming ineffective assistance of counsel… another good ole boy who refuses to face consequences and has no problem spending taxpayer money doing so.

COJ #107 - Amanda Knox On Trauma, True Crime Storytelling and Ethical Reporting

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell sit down with Amanda Knox to talk about true crime, journalism, media ethics and finding clarity in a world where facts aren’t enough to persuade someone of the truth. In 2007, Seattle resident Amanda Knox was a 20-year-old studying abroad in Perugia, Italy, when the worst happened: A man broke into the apartment she shared with three other women and brutally raped and murdered her roommate: British student Meredith Kercher. The town’s unscrupulous police agency immediately — and wrongly — put all their energy into making Amanda into a suspect no matter how many times the evidence told them otherwise. To make matters worse, they colluded with a tabloid reporter to paint Amanda out to be a “femme fatale” and fed the reporter made-up stories about what happened the night of Meredith’s murder. And the public was only too happy to take part in the resulting frenzy that was almost entirely born out of these men’s sexual fantasies about Amanda. Though she’s since been acquitted on appeal and completely exonerated by Italy’s high court, Amanda continues to grapple with backlash from those who have trouble accepting her innocence. But her focus isn’t on them. It’s on finding clarity amid the chaos and the injustice. Amanda, who is now a journalist, hosts the “Labyrinths” podcast with her husband, author and poet Chris Robinson. She is a mom of two, an author and an advocate for the wrongfully accused. Her latest book, “Free: My Search for Meaning” is available for pre-sale and will be released in March 2025. Her book Waiting To Be Heard, a NYT best seller, tells the full story of her harrowing ordeal in Italy—a labyrinthine nightmare of crime and punishment, innocence and vindication—and of the unwavering support of family and friends who tirelessly worked to help her win her freedom. Between 2007 and 2015, she spent nearly four years in an Italian prison and eight years on trial for a murder she didn’t commit. She has since become an advocate for criminal justice reform and media ethics. She sits on the advisory council for the Frederick Douglass Project for Justice and serves as an Innocence Network Ambassador. 🥽 Let's Dive In... 🦈 Learn more about Amanda Knox: Labyrinths with Amanda Knox Pre-Order Free: My Search for Meaning, by Amanda Knox AmandaKnox.com @amandaknox On Twitter / X @amamaknox On Instagram Episode Resources: Amanda Knox Documentary on Netflix Labyrinths #64 - Blood Money - Part 1: One Bloody Thing After Another Monster Unknown, A Series by Liz Farrell Stillwater Movie Call Her Daddy Podcast Featuring Amanda Knox: “I didn’t fucking do it.” (FBF) The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion by Jonathan Haidt Alerts: And Eric Bland's New Book Anything But Bland is available now!!

MMP Remastered #8 - Who Shot Alex Murdaugh? Part One

Whether you’re revisiting the story or discovering it for the first time, prepare for a revealing, uncompromising look at power, justice, and the pursuit of answers. Alex Murdaugh, a prominent South Carolina attorney whose wife and son were murdered in June, claimed he was shot in the head on September 4, 2021.Nearly three months after his wife and son were murdered, Alex Murdaugh called 911 to report that he himself had been shot... however... In this gripping episode of the Murdaugh Murders Podcast, investigative journalist Mandy Matney breaks down the shocking alleged shooting of Alex Murdaugh and questions the headline-grabbing and murder investigation-diverting narrative. His attorney Dick Harpootlian told the press that he Alex was pulled over to repair his vehicle along Salkehatchie Road in Hampton County en route to Charleston when a motorist opened fire toward Murdaugh's 2021 Mercedes SUV. However, the lead investigating agency, SLED, had not confirmed those details. This special episode explored all the available details on the incident. The timing of the shooting coincides with recent unfavorable headlines for Murdaugh, and his family's attorney's statements have us questioning all of these narratives....

TSP #121 - Unhinged Deputy Finally ARRESTED, But Where are the Rest of the Charges? + JP Miller Loses AGAIN In Court (Again!)

Investigative journalists ⁠Mandy Matney⁠ and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠ peel back the latest layers of South Carolina’s two-tier justice system — where accountability seems to stop at the badge... After a viral video showed fired Beaufort County Deputy Billy Squires holding teenagers at gunpoint in a Hilton Head neighborhood, it took an entire month — and mounting public outrage — before SLED finally charged him and his neighbor. Mandy, Liz, and producer David dissect the weak charges, the troubling omissions in the affidavits, and what this case reveals about how law enforcement protects its own.Then, the team pivots to another jaw-dropping courtroom saga (19:33): JP Miller’s latest failed appeal. Liz unpacks the judge’s scathing 10-page ruling, JP’s manipulative “Faith First Academy” contracts, and the continued fallout surrounding Mica Francis’ death.And finally, we're examining a little known financial arrangement for lawyer legislators to pay private attorneys HUGE sums of public tax money for what seems to us like little to no good reason...

Investigative journalists ⁠Mandy Matney⁠ and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠ have a Spidey sense and it’s telling them that karma is coming for Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, pastor John-Paul Miller. (3:33) JP, who is currently facing two lawsuits accusing him of sexually assaulting two teen girls at his father’s Christian school, has been under investigation by the FBI for quite some time. In fact, it was just over a year ago that the FBI sent a cavalry to raid his house. After asking his congregation at Mercy Church to pray and fast for him in a “life or death” situation this past weekend, it seems something has this churchy business bro scared. Could it be handcuffs? Also on the show North Myrtle Beach businessman (16:54) Weldon Boyd files a bizarre and laugh-worthy lawsuit against Mark “Zero Dark” Tinsley aka Tiger Tinsley, claiming that Mark’s “self-aggrandizement” and desire to be “famous” is preventing Weldon from getting a fair trial.

Dick and Jim Strike Again… But Will Their Scheme Work?

Attorneys Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin have gone even lower in their quest to get convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh a new trial. This time by blowing up the career of Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill. True Sunlight Podcast Co-hosts Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Eric Bland — discuss whether the accusations against Becky amount to jury-tampering, as well as the chances that one of Dick and Jim’s strategies might actually work. On today’s episode we break down Dick Harpootlian’s and Jim Griffin’s latest strategy — a motion for a new trial, which they’re basing on juror allegations that Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill tampered with the jury that found Alex guilty of murdering Maggie and Paul. We cover a lot of ground in this episode — including what a clerk of court does, what the accusations against Becky look like and whether we think this might be the one time Dick and Jim see a win. For premium members, we’ve included a conversation about what it was like working with Becky Hill during the murder trial last winter and our observations about her behavior.For enhanced episodes with additional content, virtual happy hours with our hosts, articles, documents and more, consider joining our Luna Shark Premium Membership community to help us SHINE THE SUNLIGHT!

Deconstructing Alex Murdaugh 2.0: A Look at the World’s Most Bizarre Sentencing Hearing

True Sunlight Podcast co-hosts Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and everyone’s favorite attorney Eric Bland — unpack Alex Murdaugh’s psychotic and bizarre performance at last week’s sentencing hearing for his financial crimes. Alex’s 50-minute statement to the court was a reminder of how this dangerous man was able to leverage his family’s power to steal from so many for so long. Also on the show, what it’s going to take to break down and rebuild South Carolina’s highly corrupt judicial system once and for all. And thank you to all the amazing fans who came out to The Co-Op Hillsboro Village in Nashville on Sunday. We had a blast - big shout out to Mandy the dog and her parents. Even after almost five years of covering this man, we still find ourselves with jaws on the floor constantly learning that even when we think we’ve seen the worst of this murdering thief, he’s always ready to show us that he’s just getting started. Last week was also a difficult one for the South Carolina justice system. Not only did we have to deal with Alex’s sick 50-minute performance at the hearing, we learned that the Judicial Merit Selection Commission NOMINATED David Miller … the 2nd circuit assistant solicitor who made his name helping lawyer-legislators like Rep. Todd Rutherford and Sen. Brad Hutto strike dangerous and practically off-books deals for their clients. Like we say in today’s episode, we are at war and it’s time put sunlight on the JMSC the likes of which they’ve never seen before. Let’s get into it.... On this episode, Luna Shark Premium Members get a couple super exclusive tidbits from EB about what Dick and Jim did immediately after the sentencing and a scoop about what's next for Judge Newman.

TSP #108 - Clocking That Tea: Unmasking the Spivey Case Lies Told By The Attorney General’s Office

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell can’t wrap their heads around the patchwork logic behind the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office’s decision not to file charges against North Myrtle Beach businessman Weldon Boyd and his friend, Bradley Williams — the two men responsible for killing 33-year-old Scott Spivey in September 2023. And there’s a reason why Mandy and Liz can’t grasp it … it’s because the so-called logic is absurd. In April 2024, assistant attorney general Heather Weiss met with Scott’s family — including his mother, Deborah, and his sister, Jennifer Spivey Foley — to explain her reasoning in deciding against pursuing a criminal case against Weldon and Bradley. The meeting exposed just how little Heather Weiss understood the case — specifically the evidence that she appears not to have taken a look at…In today’s episode, Mandy and Liz take a closer look at what went down at that meeting and why the Attorney General’s Office seemed to do its very best to find a nice and soft landing spot for Weldon and his friend.

TSP #74 - JP Miller’s Mystery Apology and His Big Night in Jail + the Latest in the Christa Bauer Gilley Case

After investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell wrapped up last week’s episode — in which Mandy wondered when we’d ever see Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller in handcuffs — they got their wish. JP spent one glorious night in jail after a physical confrontation between him and a female protester. And the drama didn’t end there... On today’s episode we look at what went down between JP and the protester as well as everything that was revealed in a May 2 recording of JP talking to his business partners about Mica Francis’ death days earlier. Also we look at what Mica’s medical records tell us about the three years after her alleged first suicide attempt. Plus, updates in the Christa Bauer Gilley case in Houston Heights, Texas, including the quest for Lee Gilley’s jailhouse phone calls and a look at his newest attorney …. whose name is Dick. But not that Dick! Star criminal defense lawyer Dick DeGuerin, who defended the likes of David Koresh and Robert Durst, has joined Lee’s defense team, in what’s turning out to be another example of a wealthy man trying to buy his way out of accountability.
