Once again, the prosecution is proving that Alex Murdaugh is nothing more than a judicial terrorist; and his lawyers will stop at nothing to carry out his orders. True Sunlight Co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell discuss the South Carolina Attorney General’s response to Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin’s motion for Alex to get a new murder trial. For the past two months, the headlines have all but celebrated Dick and Jim’s claims of jury-tampering. Now, a fiery response to that motion — filled with Big Creighton Energy — shows just how wrong the accusations are. A lot of you have asked how you can get signed copies of Blood on their hands and now we have answers. There is a very limited supply of signed copies available at Mandy's event at USC in Columbia, SC presented by the School of Information & Communications this Monday at 7pm.  This will be the ONLY opportunity to buy a book a day early and get it signed after the show. And for Premium Members only, we'll be at the Roasting Room in Bluffton, SC for a special Premium Member appreciation event Thursday November 16th at 7pm.

On this 23rd episode, True Sunlight Co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell catch you up on the latest drama in the Alex Murdaugh cases — and whoa, what a week it has been. In an act of utter shamelessness, Alex’s brother Randy, his former law partner Johnny Parker and law firm PMPED have officially jumped in line to take what they claim is their share of Alex’s $1.8 million in known assets … and, based on their requests, they think it all belongs to them. Dick and Jim have officially asked the Court for a new trial in the murder case. And — in one of the lowest of low-down dirty moves — they’ve asked the state Supreme Court to remove America’s Judge — Judge Clifton Newman — from all cases involving Alex. Plus, what’s up with Alex’s bestie Chris Wilson? We'll dive into all of that!

Are Dick and Jim STILL trying to get at Alex Murdaugh’s assets? True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell discuss Team Murdaugh’s latest filing with the state court of appeals over the $160,000 in fees they’re seeking from the receivership. Also, the Court of Appeals is deciding whether Cory Fleming even has the right to appeal his plea deal with the state. Plus lawyer-lawmakers in the South Carolina Legislature got a big wakeup call this week when more than half the state’s top prosecutors signed a letter calling for Rep. Todd Rutherford and others to be barred from choosing judges. Tonight, October 26th at 4pm ET, Mandy will be speaking to supporters and students at the College of Charleston about her new book Blood on their Hands and her journey to get to where she is today. It will be a talk about not only the Murdaugh investigation, but the struggles she faced during this 4-year investigation and how a little kitchen table podcast overcame the odds to make it to No. 1.

True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell celebrate the beat-down given to Team Murdaugh in their latest legal loss. Also on the show, did someone set up Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill? Plus why prosecutors need to stand their ground in Alex’s quest for a new trial. And the wannabe Circuit Court judge who is behind at least two shady, closed door deals. On this episode, Mandy and Liz celebrate the beatdown given to Team Murdaugh in their latest legal loss.

Despite the past four years of basically becoming Murdaugh scholars, True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell still find themselves shocked when they see "good ole boyism" at work in South Carolina. On today’s episode, there’s a very frustrating update in the Bowen Turner case, plus they discuss yet another prisoner that lawyer-legislator Todd Rutherford was able to secure a secret early-release deal for. Also on the episode, there appears to be a coordinated effort to remove Lowcountry judge Bentley Price from the bench. What’s going on there? Finally, they take a good look at one of the funniest filings Dick and Jim have ever made in their efforts to get Alex Murdaugh a better deal. The Judicial Merit Selection Committee is accepting complaints about David Miller until Oct. 23 - you can voice your opinion here: https://bit.ly/3RW9JJt Stay tuned for details on dates and times to catch Mandy in person and virtually in Charleston (Oct 26), Columbia (early November), Bluffton (Mid-November) and Hilton Head (December & January) in the coming weeks.

It’s been another wild week in the world of Alex Murdaugh. True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell give a breakdown of what happened at Alex’s federal plea hearing last week and the vicious dealings that have occurred since then. What is Alex’s larger plan? Also on the show, Cory Fleming appeals his sentencing in South Carolina Circuit Court and Russell Laffitte is reporting to prison … in Florida. Plus an exploration into how Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin are being paid and why recent subpoenas seeking information about their entertainment deals are important. For some reason, we didn’t expect to still be stuck in Murdaugh land this fall. We were admittedly in denial thinking these cases would wrap up quietly and we could move on to other victims who need help shining the sunlight. But here we are, another week with an episode full of updates and important information on the never-ending Murdaugh saga.  While there is so much more to talk about today, we'll start off by talking about Crime Con and the concept of accountability.  We can’t rely on those who police lawyers in our state to do anything about Dick’s gun-pointing in court or Jim breaking prison rules for his propaganda documentary, but we can remind our millions of listeners and thousands of Luna Shark Premium Members of who these men really are and why they don’t deserve to be celebrated and that is a big deal. Lots to chat about, so let's get into it! And a fun update: Mandy will be on Court TV Thursday night September 28 at 8pm ET with Sandy Smith and Eric Bland to make a special announcement.

Convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh is headed to federal court to plead guilty for the first time in any of his criminal cases. True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell take a look at the timing of this plea deal and how his motion for a new trial — with his bombshell accusations of jury-tampering — fit into Team Murdaugh’s larger plan. Update: Murdaugh did plead guilty in federal court today as Mandy and David live chatted the event to Premium Members on Discord. Sentencing will occur at a later date. Keep in mind: the SC AG currently has custody of Alex as “primary custodian” for life sentences but promised to deliver/loan him to any federal hearings and in essence Alex didn’t object to that back in May. And when sentenced federally, the bureau of prisons / federal judge can execute/order sentence to be consecutive or concurrent to state sentence… but he’ll serve it in the care of primary custodian. We’re back on the Murdaugh roller coaster this week so.. buckle up. Speaking of roller coasters, Mandy has been recording the audio version of her book Blood On Their Hands: Murder, Corruption, And The Fall of the Murdaugh Dynasty and it’s been so emotional for her saying out loud the parts of this story she kept so tight for so many years.  We are shamelessly asking you, our loyal listeners who have stuck by us for more than 100 episodes, to pre-order Blood On Their Hands hard copy, digital or audiobooks, which will be available in book stores near you on November 14th! Learn more or Pre-order your copy at lunasharkmedia.com/book. Premium members will also get access to a ton of new content matched with each chapter when the book releases in November.  Thursday night, Luna Shark Soak Up The Sun Premium members will get access to a very special PRE-recorded happy hour with "BOTH" co-author Carolyn Murnick and Mandy. We recorded ahead of time it because David and Mandy are attending Alex's federal hearing in Charleston, which we will talk about later in this episode. The Happy Hour will answer a lot of questions y'all have about the book PLUS Carolyn and Mandy will be joining the LIVE chat so they can answer your questions as we all watch together Thursday 9/21/23 at 7 pm. Premium Members also get access to searchable case files, written articles with documents, case photos, episode videos and exclusive live experiences with our hosts on lunasharkmedia.com all in one place. CLICK HERE to learn more: https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE. But for this episode, it seems like Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin are continuing to burn South Carolina’s justice system to the ground — all to help a man who ruined so many lives — but so far not one of their plans has worked. Will this be the one time they’re actually on the mark? Let's get into it. We all want to drink from the same Cup Of Justice — and it starts with learning about our legal system.

At the end of an epic three-part hearing Thursday, South Carolina Judge Clifton Newman sentenced Alex Murdaugh’s former best friend and co-conspirator Cory Fleming to 20 years in state prison for his role in helping Alex steal millions from the Satterfield and Pinckney families. True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell break down that dramatic hearing, plus they discuss what went down in two other hearings that happened in this same courtroom: One for Alex and one for Russell Laffitte. Liz and Mandy have also spent days dissecting those documents as the accusations against Becky were very serious. Last week, things spiraled into chaos again when Dick and Jim filed a long and shocking motion accusing clerk of Court Becky Hill of jury tampering.  We also spent a lot of time rereading Becky Hill’s book. Did we find concerning things? Yes. Do we think there is a chance of a new trial with this? Not at all.. unless we hear new information that wasn’t included in that motion. Which could happen... We will do a deep dive on all of that in a future episode. But today we need to talk about the very big deal… Cory Fleming was sentenced from 10-20 years (learn why there is such a gap on this episode too). Let's get into it...

In this very special episode of True Sunlight, we continue our mission of getting the story straight and giving voice to victims. Eric Alan Daume reports from the Blue Ridge mountains of South Carolina and digs into the deaths of April Jones and Kevin Craig, and the disappearance of Faith Roach. There are so many similarities between Eric Alan’s investigation into "A Mountain Mystery", the Murdaugh saga and the Solomon case, all cases that need a whole lot of sunlight on them. ** And just a warning, todays episode has some course language and graphic descriptions. Today, Liz Farrell gives a brief update on the new shenanigans in the Murdaugh saga, but we are not going to let their nonsense get in the way of highlighting Eric Alan Daume's investigation into "A Mountain Mystery" and what happened to April Jones, Kevin Craig and others in this in-depth investigation. If you're a Luna Shark Premium Member, you've seen Eric Alan in the trial chats, and on camera. You might recognize some of his footage, which we use to make our own video versions of MMP and TSP episodes. He covered the Murdaugh trial and covers other cases as well on his YouTube channel - click here to learn more: https://www.youtube.com/@Eric-Alan. Eric is an incredibly talented documentarian and we are proud to partner with him by sharing his talents with all of you — our amazing audience.  If you listened to this week’s COJ you know that Mandy and David are in Europe so Eric Alan’s episode allows them to enjoy some time away and it gives me a little much-appreciated downtime as well. Learn more about Eric Alan's mission on his YouTube page here: https://www.youtube.com/@Eric-Alan   The craziness in the Murdaugh saga is (as-always) heating up so tune into Eric Bland, Beth Braden and possibly a special guest this Thursday's Luna Shark Premium Happy Hour, September 7th at 6:30pm ET. And don't forget Premium Members get access to searchable case files, written articles with documents, case photos, episode videos and exclusive live experiences with our hosts on lunasharkmedia.com all in one place. CLICK HERE to learn more: https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE.

Every single time one of the boys “goes down” or we think they’re down, two more sprout from the surface showing their beady little eyes and empty souls. We've said this many times but our team is definitely experiencing Murdaugh fatigue. But we’ve noticed that the second we back off the story a little, shenanigans that need sunlight start up again.  But what a difference a week makes! After his federal sentencing, Alex Murdaugh’s best friend and co-conspirator Cory Fleming found himself in a much less friendly courtroom this week where he pleaded guilty to 23 state charges. True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell talk about the dramatic hearing and unpack what might have been prosecutor Creighton Waters’ best performance yet. We'd also like to dedicate today's episode to Joan Meyer, of Marion, Kansas. The full video of her stand against the illegal search of her home many attribute to her death can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e50NOlm6dkI&t=1s And just reiterating our big announcement about Blood On Their Hands - Mandy's new book which will be available in book stores near you on November 14th!

The first co-conspirator of Alex Murdaugh is finally behind bars! True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell attended Cory Fleming’s sentencing hearing this week in Charleston, South Carolina, where they watched Fleming — a former attorney who took advantage of Gloria Satterfield’s family — throw himself on the mercy of the court. The two share highlights from the hearing and explore new questions, such as: Was this a real display of remorse? Or did this just get worse? Did the federal government get played by Alex Murdaugh’s former best friend? As mentioned on Cup Of Justice, Fleming will serve 46 months in federal prison and pay $102,221 in restitution for his involvement in the scheme to steal millions from the Satterfield family. Moments after Judge Richard Gergel announced his sentence on August 15, Fleming voluntarily surrendered and was escorted out of the U.S. District Court in Charleston by U.S. Marshals.

True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell take a deeper look at Judge Gergel's sentence for convicted felon Russell Laffitte and zoom in on who the $3.55 million restitution will be paid to. It was appalling to hear again how much pain Russell has caused the Plylers and Pinckneys and how their old wounds won’t close because of what Russell did.  We reflect on the powerful testimonies and why its such a loss to public interest that these victims voices will not be heard by the public. Throughout the day, all signs from Judge Gergel indicated that his sentencing would be severe and send a message that this type of complex crime that requires years of bad decisions will not be tolerated. However, 7 years in federal prison just doesn’t feel fair when it comes to the “cruel” and “complex” crimes described in court.... The question is… why… and will this ever change if not now...?

Things have gone way too far, and it’s time to take action. True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell look at the organized efforts online to silence victims, journalists, bloggers and other influencers … people who are using their voices for good. In this episode they talk to Rae Andreacchio, a Mississippi mother who has been attacked and defamed as she seeks answers about how her son Christian died in 2014. Andreacchio stood up to the bullying and took her case to federal court. Also in this episode, the story behind Dooce blogger Heather Armstrong’s death and what might have contributed to her decision to take her own life.  Want to look at the documents referenced in this episode and others?

True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell go down the rabbit hole on South Carolina Judge Casey Manning, who is perhaps most famously known for his role in the secret release of convicted murderer Jeroid Price, who remains on the run. Mandy and Liz break down a 2019 case involving the brutal murder of a South Carolina mom of five by her ex-boyfriend. Judge Manning’s behavior during the trial was reportedly so egregious and awful that it now threatens to overturn the man’s conviction. In sharing yet another example of South Carolina’s broken justice system, True Sunlight continues to bring attention to the world that created a monster like Alex Murdaugh. You’ll also hear a quick Stephen Smith update and plans for future cases. And since we need a break - we’re taking the week of July 4 OFF!! That means no Cup of Justice and No True Sunlight episodes next week.  And if you want to go down a deep dive with us, we'll be sharing 500 pages of Jeroid Price's prison record with our LUNASHARK Premium members that we'll review with all premium members when we get back.  And Starting July 1st, Premium Members will be able to visit lunasharkmedia.com to get access to searchable case files, written articles with documents, case photos, episode videos and exclusive live experiences with our hosts - all in one place.  I’m so excited about this and so thankful for the members who support us and are helping us rekindle a love of journalism for so many. This work you are supporting is so important.  Thank you so much for your understanding and we'll see y'all in two weeks!  - Mandy and the LUNASHARK team  Want to look at the documents referenced in this episode and others?

True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell revisit the Bowen Turner case as new details emerge from a victim’s family. After bringing much needed sunlight to the secret plea deal being struck between a lawyer-legislator and the prosecution, the family of Dallas Stoller went suddenly quiet. They said they were told to stay out of the media so Dallas’ case could be reopened. Also, we expose a sexual assault case involving a football star named David Bennett Galloway III that looks like it was handled a lot like Turner’s case.

True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell go down a new rabbit hole that leads them to a story not yet told about the world of Alex Murdaugh. After two Beaufort County teenagers are arrested for allegedly creating a fake Instagram account to impersonate a former teacher of theirs, Mandy and Liz discover that a little-known law exists that leaves the door open for abuses of power.

Despite Dick and Jim’s insistence that their client has been cooperating with federal investigators, Beth Braden, a journalist from Tennessee who now works with Luna Shark, attended Alex's arraignment Wednesday and reported that Alex Murdaugh entered a plea of Not guilty to the 22 federal charges.  Alex Murdaugh's Not Guilty plea in U.S. District Court, brings his ability for nonsense to a new low. True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell discuss the latest drama in Murdaugh’s federal case and his best friend Cory Fleming’s attempts to get off lightly. They also share an update from South Carolina state prosecutor Creighton Waters.  Consider joining our Luna Shark Premium Membership community to help us SHINE THE SUNLIGHT!

Welcome to the new face of MMP. True Sunlight is the antithesis of True crime. True Sunlight values accuracy over access journalism. True Sunlight is shed with empathy — not exploitation. True Sunlight was created as a matter of public service — not just entertainment. While the name of the podcast has changed, our mission, values and team have not. We are simply expanding our horizons while continuing to shine a much needed bright light on Alex Murdaugh and his web of misdeeds.  The U.S. Attorney’s Office’s decision to indict Alex Murdaugh and his (former?) best friend and alleged co-conspirator Cory Fleming this week raises more questions. Will Alex get to spend the rest of his two life sentences in “Club Fed”? Will Cory’s expected plea deal result in more big names getting exposed in this unprecedented web of deception? True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell take a look at the latest twists in this never-ending story of crime and corruption.

This is the last episode of the Murdaugh Murders Podcast created by Mandy Matney, written with journalist Liz Farrell and produced by David Moses... but don’t freak out! We are simply changing the name of the podcast next week while the mission stays the same. The podcast will ONLY get better from here — with more stories to cover, more journalists to work with, and WOO, more time to do these podcasts.  This podcast has been much more than work for our whole team in the past two years.  So for this episode, before we start tackling other complicated cases, we want to take some time to reflect on the last two years. To remember the good, bad, ugly and straight up strange things we have revealed on MMP. To remember where we started, how far we’ve come. To remind everyone that if we can do this, you can do it too.  As the Murdaugh Murders Podcast team looks toward a very bright future of shining a light on corruption, co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell reflect on the past two years of uncovering the truth in the dark underworld of Alex Murdaugh. The battle for justice is ongoing but being pesky paid off. In this episode, Mandy and Liz go behind-the-scenes and share the best, biggest and funniest moments of the podcast and the many surprises they encountered along the way.

On Tuesday, about 100 people gathered at the South Carolina statehouse to talk about something really important — victims and how they are often pushed aside in our justice system.  Murdaugh Murders Podcast host Mandy Matney and other victims advocates in South Carolina rallied on the Statehouse steps this week, calling for meaningful change at the legislative level. Victims of violent crime — and victims of Alex Murdaugh — have had enough of this system, which continues to ignore and harm them. In this episode, Mandy Matney and Co-Host Liz Farrell talk about victims rights, the need for judicial reform and how to solve the problem with legislator-lawyers.

Only one person alive knows what really happened to Gloria Satterfield the day she was found bleeding from the head at Moselle in February 2018. And we all know who that is...  Murdaugh Murders Podcast co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell unwind the latest filing from Alex Murdaugh’s attorneys in which the convicted murderer now admits to lying about how Gloria Satterfield died. Also on the show: the boat crash case starts heating up and Dick and Jim beg the court for money.  On Tuesday May 9, Sandy Smith and I will be speaking among several special guests at the Victims Matter Rally at the Statehouse in Columbia South Carolina. As we have talked about time and time again on this podcast, our justice system so often prioritizes the privileged and fails victims of violent crime. And too many of our lawmakers are working for the bad guys.  As we are working on expanding our reach to focus on cases across the nation and maybe eventually the world where Crime Meets Corruption — we want to ensure that the pressure continues right here at home in South Carolina.  We hope to see you at the SC Statehouse on Tuesday... and let's get into it...

Our team has spent the last week diving down different rabbit holes related to the Jeroid Price case. We talked about Price a lot in the last episode, but for a quick reminder, In December 2003, Price was sentenced to 35 years in prison for the 2002 murder of Carl Smalls Jr. After a whirlwind week, the state of South Carolina is sending convicted murderer Jeroid Price back to prison, but the fight against secret back door deals continues.  Murdaugh Murders Podcast co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell talk about the fiery state Supreme Court hearing that ended with an order to rearrest Price, the Supreme Court’s apparent attempt to keep the hearing from being broadcast and what might be driving Alex Murdaugh’s desire to be put in gen-pop at his prison.  Soak Up The Sun MMP Premium Members were able to reconvene as we broadcast today's hearing live and we'll share another link soon with complete audio.

Murdaugh Murders Podcast co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrel take a look at the shocking SECRET release of convicted murderer Jeroid Price, who was allowed to leave prison 15 years before his sentence was over.

In this 88th episode, Co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrel unpack Russell Laffitte’s latest attempt to get a do-over in federal court. They also take a step back to look at the bigger picture of how convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh used Eddie Smith to do his bidding and then threw him under the bus in an effort to escape consequence. Now, Eddie is caught between the state of South Carolina and its two-tiered justice system that continues to treat the powerful much differently.

There has been a TON of buzz in the Stephen Smith case, which is a good thing. Just like they did in the Satterfield case, Eric Bland and Ronnie Richter have done a full-court press ensuring Stephen’s case is front and center in the media.  After eight long years, the family of Stephen Smith is finally seeing momentum in their quest for answers about why he was left to die on a Hampton County road. But challenges remain as DIY detectives on social media spread misinformation about the case and try to paint Stephen’s mother as on a crusade against the Murdaugh family. Mandy Matney and Liz Farrel (And EB!) discuss the latest in the case. To learn more about the planned Independent Exhumation and Autopsy for Stephen, click here: http://bit.ly/3JGacec A private medical examiner must be present from the start of the exhumation through the examination period at a cost of approximately $750 per hour. It is a huge expense, but we are hoping that with your support we can make this happen and finally get the answers we need.

Eight years after 19-year-old Stephen Smith’s body was found on a rural South Carolina road, investigators are finally saying the thing his family has known all along: He was not killed in a hit-and-run... STEPHEN WAS MURDERED. MMP co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell talk to Stephen’s mother Sandy Smith about the latest developments in one of the most heart-breaking cases connected to convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh and his family. And we share key moments from Eric Bland (Co-host of our Cup Of Justice podcast) and partner Ronnie Richter's press conference announcing their representation of Sandy Smith.

Thank you for your patience as this episode is publishing later than usual. As I said on social media, our team is in adjustment mode after the adrenaline and the chaos of the trial slowed down and we’re all still trying to all recenter our focus.  Now that Alex Murdaugh has been convicted in the murders of his wife and son, it’s time to take a look back on all the pieces that had to come together for the jury to deliver that guilty verdict. In the short time since Alex Murdaugh was convicted of murdering his wife and son, a lot has happened in the wake of his sentencing. This week on Murdaugh Murders Podcast, co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell take a look at the latest criticism of the murder investigation and South Carolina Law Enforcement Division — as well as Jim Griffin’s strange post-trial social media presence and Russell Laffitte’s defeats in the courtroom. They also talk with Sandy Smith about the next steps in finding justice for her son, Stephen Smith.

Now that Alex Murdaugh has been convicted in the murders of his wife and son, it’s time to take a look back on all the pieces that had to come together for the jury to deliver that guilty verdict. Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell talk about key testimony in the case and also had a fun chat with South Carolina prosecutor Creighton Waters himself.  Looking ahead, we have big plans to expand our particular style of journalism to other cases across the country — cases that would be solved if not for local corruption in law enforcement and other government agencies, but we still have a lot of work to do with this case. Over the next few months we will be redoubling our efforts into our investigation of the Stephen Smith Case. Sandy, Stephanie and the entire Smith family deserve to see justice in this case, which should have been solved in 2015. So this is a big day — we hope a new day — in South Carolina.  And stay tuned, we are just getting started... Consider joining our MMP Premium Membership community to help us SHINE THE SUNLIGHT!

The trial of Alex Murdaugh is coming to an end and soon the jury will deliver its verdict. Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell break down the best and worst moments of the last week of testimony — including Alex’s big reveal that he was, as we all knew, down at the kennel just minutes before his wife’s and son’s murders. Turns out, Alex’s New Story about what happened that night sounds awfully familiar … not surprising given that it seemed almost entirely based on the evidence and testimony from the past five weeks.

In this first part of a two-part episode, Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and everyone’s favorite attorney Eric Bland talk about the suspicious circumstances surrounding Alex Murdaugh’s one big case as a lead prosecutor; the untouchable “retired” judges who are reluctant to give up the power (and money) that come with the black robes; and the time Eric had to go to Circuit City to buy something to place at the altar of Dick Harpootlian. As we revisit the ONE CASE Alex tried as a lead prosecutor — the Emmanuel Buckner case in 2019 - we talk in depth about that in episode 73 of Murdaugh Murders Podcast. If you haven’t listened to that one yet, we recommend you start there. We also got some really good perspective from Eric on what it is really like out there for young attorneys in South Carolina who weren’t born with the last name Murdaugh.
