On the remastered 11th episode of the Murdaugh Murders Podcast, journalists Liz Farrell and Mandy Matney revisits the chaotic days following Alex Murdaugh's alleged roadside shooting — a moment that exposed the cracks in the powerful lawyer's web of lies and manipulation.Through exclusive reporting and sharp skepticism, Mandy questions whether the “suicide-for-hire” story ever made sense, unraveling contradictions between what Alex's attorneys claimed and what evidence actually showed.This episode also captures how media outlets were misled by Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin's PR spin — and why challenging their narrative became a defining moment for independent journalism.Revisiting this episode now, it's clear this was when the Murdaugh myth began to crumble publicly, revealing not only a desperate man but a culture (and legacy media) that long protected him.Episode References“Accused of misappropriation of funds, Alex Murdaugh resigns from law firm and enters rehab” - Hampton County Guardian, Updated Sept 7, 2021“Lawyer Shot After Wife and Son Were Killed Had Been Pushed Out of Law Firm” - New York Times, Sept 6, 2021
In Broken Trust and the Unseen Villains, journalists Liz Farrell and Mandy Matney revisit one of the most emotionally charged and revealing chapters in the Murdaugh saga. Recorded during the heated birth of the Beach Family / Mark Tinsley / Parker's Kitchen civil conspiracy battle (which is still not adjudicated as of November 2025), this episode exposed the powerful network of influence working to silence victims and harass those who sought the truth. Mandy and Liz reflect on the online trolling, intimidation tactics, alleged ethical breaches, and those who seemed to target Mandy and Liz for reporting the truth — and how empathy from listeners countered the cruelty. On this 57th episode we dissected revelations about Greg Parker's private investigators, the Wall Street Journal's coverage, and the media manipulation at play.

Originally released in June 8, 2022, Means, Motive & Opportunity: Who Killed Maggie & Paul? Part Four marks the moment when journalists Liz Farrell and Mandy Matney pieced together the strongest early case against Alex Murdaugh using credible inside sources and relentless investigation.This episode details the mounting forensic and circumstantial evidence — including video placing Alex at the crime scene, financial pressures closing in, and the unraveling power networks that long protected the Murdaugh family.With trademark precision, the journalists break down how opportunity, motive, and means collided on June 7, 2021, leading to two brutal murders that shook South Carolina.2025 Mandy and Liz also talk about the emotional toll of reporting under immense pressure, the public backlash they endured, and how truth-telling in a climate of corruption became both their calling and their survival.
Originally released in April 2022, Who Killed Maggie & Paul? Part Three marked a critical point in the Murdaugh Murders investigation.In this episode, journalists Liz Farrell and Mandy Matney reveal the first major breakthrough: physical evidence linking Alex Murdaugh directly to the Moselle crime scene through high-velocity impact spatter found on his shirt. The team unpacked how this discovery—and Alex's shifting alibi—transformed public perception and intensified scrutiny of law enforcement's handling of the case. The episode also connected the dots between Alex's crumbling finances, the upcoming Beach lawsuit hearing, and the mounting pressure that preceded the murders. This remastered edition revisits that pivotal reporting, pairing sharp analysis with haunting 911 call audio and expert forensic insight. It captures the moment when rumor gave way to reality—and the truth about the Murdaugh family's empire of deceit began to unravel in full view of the world. “FOX Carolina's exclusive interview with Murdaugh attorney Jim Griffin: Part One” - Fox Carolina, Oct 12, 2021

Whiny Bitches, Keek Shit Herself, Let Them Judge and Another One Bites the Dust
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. Is Weldon anticipating criminal charges? Plus a rundown on the history of Horry County Police Department's shady beginnings.So much to cover, so let's dive in!
Episode 77 of She Said It First is part comedy special, part group therapy session, and part reminder that self-love is the real plot twist. Jerrilyn Lake (aka Indeskribeabull) and Lynee’ Monae start off with What Irritated Me the Most This Week, where they admit they’re too tired to even be mad, but still find the strength to drag the 5 a.m. trash collectors who treat their neighborhood like a monster-truck rally. In Girl, What Happened, things turn from funny to felony as the ladies talk about the epidemic of people popping up unannounced. From exes showing up at nail salons to surprise visits that belong in horror movies, they make it clear. If your name isn’t Amazon Prime, don’t deliver yourself to their door. Jerrilyn and Lynee’ unpack the deeper issue of boundaries and safety, reminding listeners that sometimes closure just means blocking them on everything. They then dive into relationships, self-worth, and the wild realization that sometimes we fall in love with how we make someone feel, not who they really are. The hosts get real about outgrowing situationships, “pretty punishment” (when men try to humble confident women), and why the only person you should be chasing this season is yourself Finally, in Girl Talk , they hilariously talk about girl trip etiquette and traveling with bad friends, as well as smart devices that listen too much, proving once again that Jerrilyn and Lynee can turn even chaos, creeps, and conspiracy into catharsis—and a good laugh.

Before Episode Six of Hulu's “Murdaugh: Death in the Family” releases this week, we're taking a moment to revisit one of our most pivotal episodes — MMP #84, first published on March 15, 2023 when our Luna Shark team was still reeling from the aftermath of Alex Murdaugh's double-murder trial. Yet, even then, we knew the story wasn't over. This episode marks a reminder that accountability journalism doesn't end with a verdict… it begins there.Co-hosts and journalists Liz Farrell and Mandy Matney 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. Plus, you'll hear about the renewed fight for justice in Stephen Smith's case. This is a story about hope and heartbreak — about a community that refused to look away, and a mother, Sandy Smith, whose determination continues to inspire all of us.Lots to cover, so let's dive in...
In this powerful remastered episode, journalists Liz Farrell and Mandy Matney revisits Sandy Smith's 2016 letter to the FBI — the desperate plea of a mother who refused to let her son's death be forgotten. With new commentary, Mandy exposes how systemic neglect and media exploitation compounded Sandy's pain, even as she fought for the truth about Stephen's suspicious death. This episode tracks the turning points that brought new allies into Sandy's fight — attorney Mike Hemlepp's compassionate advocacy, SLED's renewed investigation, and the community's rallying support. Mandy also reflects on how Hulu's Murdaugh: Death in the Family gives global voice to Stephen and Sandy's story, transforming private grief into public demand for justice.

Producer David Moses reflects on episode published back in September of 2022 and shares his opinion on the persistent failures, lost evidence, and political fear that have stalled justice for nearly a decade. Listen to Cup of Justice #124 to learn more about the mysterious calls Eric Bland received from Randy Murdaugh and an anonymous 'journalist'. In this episode, journalists Liz Farrell and Mandy Matney confront the institutional cowardice that allowed a young man's murder to be buried under rumor and silence—and honor Sandy Smith's relentless fight for truth. With comments from Sandy's former attorney Mike Hemlepp, this episode connects Stephen's unsolved homicide to the broader collapse of trust in South Carolina's justice system. As dramatized in Hulu's Murdaugh: Death in the Family, Stephen's story is no longer just about corruption—it's about courage.Lots to cover, so let's dive in...
In this haunting installment from November 10, 2021, journalist Mandy Matney revisits the 2015 death of Stephen Smith, exposing how South Carolina's Highway Patrol let the case go cold—and we ask why. Mandy's new commentary reveals how incompetence blurred into intentional avoidance and how political pressure protected the powerful. In this episode, we revisit the December 7, 2015 anonymous tip to South Carolina Highway Patrol, examine the December 9, 2015 alternative theory presented by Hampton law enforcement, and the eventual interview six months later which concluded the SCHP investigation into Stephen's brutal death. Stephen's story is no longer a rumor whispered down rural roads—it's a call for accountability.Lots to cover, so let's dive in...
When The Murdaugh Murders Podcast first released this episode on November 3, 2021, Mandy (and David) were just beginning to unravel the financial rot behind Alex Murdaugh's crimes.This pivotal chapter revisits the moment Eric Bland, Mark Tinsley, and even (Team Dick's) Joe McCulloch filed for a groundbreaking receivership motion — freezing Murdaugh's assets and setting the stage to expose the scale of his deception. This episode marks the turning point where the podcast stopped chasing headlines and started demanding accountability — connecting the courtroom, the cash, and the culture that protected Alex Murdaugh for decades. On Tuesday, November 2, 2021 Judge Daniel Hall appointed two outside parties — attorney John T. Lay Jr. and former U.S. attorney Peter M. McCoy Jr. — to have control over Alex and Buster Murdaugh's assets, which is known as “receivership” in the court.Lots to cover, so let's dive in...

When Murdaugh Murders Podcast first released Episode 45 on May 18, 2022, it marked a turning point in exposing South Carolina's deep-rooted legal corruption.In this remastered edition, journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell revisit how Alex Murdaugh's lies and influence weaponized the justice system — from the manipulation of insurance payouts to the silence of the South Carolina Bar Association. We received new information from the attorneys and insurance companies who investigated Gloria Satterfield's death. Not only do these new details raise more questions about what happened at Moselle the day of her alleged “trip and fall,” the new information highlights one of the major problems in this state: lawyers helping lawyers. Through reflection and renewed context, this episode underscores why reform in the Palmetto State remains urgent — and why Gloria Satterfield's story continues to shine a light on truth, accountability, and systemic failure.Lots to cover, so let's dive in...

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell have learned over the years that taking a week off from True Sunlight means only one thing: the Good Ole Boys will go back to Good Ole Boying. And last week we had mostly good things, starting with people's love for “Murdaugh: Death in the Family.” The series is a No. 1 hit on Hulu or Hulu on Disney+, and the Official Companion Podcast, as well as True Sunlight and event the legacy feed of remastered Murdaugh Murders Podcasts, are all burning through the charts. Woo-hoo!!! On today's episode, Mandy and Liz look at South Carolina Alan Wilson's decision to finally hand over the Scott Spivey/Horry County Police Department Corruption case to a special prosecutor. It's an interesting decision from a man whose office told the Spivey family they couldn't ethically or legally charge Weldon Boyd and Bradley Williams for Scott's death. Plus, an update on Charleston County Magistrate Judge James “Skipper” Gosnell's child sexual abuse material case. And it's been almost four weeks since Squires held local teenagers at gunpoint in a terrifying display of police misconduct and, according to sources, the SLED investigation is finished. So what's the hold up? Finally, an update in the (48:16) Jane Doe No. 2 case accusing Wayne Miller of following her home. So much to cover, so let's dive in!
On this episode of The She Said It First Podcast, Jerrilyn Lake aka Indeskribeabull and Lynee’ Monae discusses various topics and entertain the listening audience. Episode 75 of She Said It First, titled “Not Looking for Love, Looking for Lunches,” is peak funny girl fall energy. Jerrilyn Lake (aka Indeskribeabull) and Lynee’ Monae kick things off with What Irritated Me the Most This Week, and it’s giving “you had one job.” Jerrilyn’s photographer fumbled her whole meet-and-greet photoshoot by cutting off her shoes — the most expensive part of the outfit. Lynee’ doubles down with her own rant about people (and politicians) who can’t seem to do their one assignment either, sliding smoothly from bad angles to bad elections. It’s equal parts relatable, ridiculous, and just the right dose of righteous. In Girl, What Happened, cuffing season takes center stage as the ladies admit they might’ve wasted their summer and missed their shot at a winter roster. But don’t get it twisted — they’re not looking for soulmates, just soul food. The duo hilariously breaks down where to find “plush” partners for the colder months — hint: try Wingstop, the buffet line, or the big and tall store (Ziplock suit optional). Their motto? “We’re not looking for love, we’re looking for lunches.” Between cozy talk, cuffing strategies, and Boston Market confessions, it’s a full buffet of comedy. Finally, Girl Talk dives into everything from viral content boundaries to defending your mama in public (and almost going to jail over it). They cap things off with a passionate debate about tipping culture — when it’s deserved, when it’s not, and why asking for a tip on the card reader feels like robbery with a smile.

When this episode first aired in November 2021, it marked a defining moment in the Murdaugh investigation — and in the evolution of The Murdaugh Murders Podcast. For the first time, journalist Liz Farrell joined Mandy Matney, transforming what had begun as a one-woman pursuit of truth into a powerhouse partnership built on trust, tenacity, and shared purpose. On Friday, November 19th, 2021 we learned that prosecutors issued 27 additional felony charges against Alex Murdaugh bringing the total possible jail time to over a hundreds years and our sources believe that could be just the beginning. In this special edition we'll review the 27 new counts and expand on the implications as we introduce our new partner in true crime. Liz was there when Mandy first discovered inconsistencies in the only document recorded in the Satterfield settlement which blew the lid off a saga like no other.You'll also hear a moment between Mandy and Eric Bland in which he explains all the dominos that had to fall in order for Murdaugh's litany of crimes to come to light. Listen now to the episode that changed everything — the moment The Murdaugh Murders Podcast became a movement for truth and justice. Lots to cover, so let's dive in...
In this remastered episode of the Murdaugh Murders Podcast, producer David Moses revisits the fall of 2021 — a turning point for the investigation and for the people demanding accountability in South Carolina's Lowcountry. In this episode, listeners rediscover how Gloria Satterfield's case cracked open the Murdaugh empire and set the stage for a national reckoning.Mandy Matney's original reporting and Eric Bland's fiery pursuit of justice unfold alongside reflections on how these moments inspired Hulu's original series Murdaugh: Death in the Family.It's not just a look back — it's a reminder of why persistence, community, and a little bit of “pesky” journalism still matter.Let's dive in...
The chaos was real in the fall of 2021— threats, sleepless nights, and a story too important to stop. In this remastered episode, Mandy Matney and producer David Moses revisit the moment Eric Bland stormed into the Murdaugh universe with a voice loud enough to advocate for his clients while he was knocking on doors to demand accountability. As the Gloria Satterfield case gained national attention, Episode 12 marked a turning point — when facts, fraud, and fear collided. This remastered edition features new commentary from producer David Moses reflecting on how fear turned into defiance, and journalism became personal. Gloria Satterfield died suspiciously in 2018 following an alleged “trip-and-fall” incident while working at one of the Murdaugh family homes. In this episode we explored the new developments brought about by her sons and their righteous pursuit for justice.Attorney Eric Bland explains that a $4.3 million settlement was diverted, with Murdaugh ultimately receiving the funds. Bland and Richter were working to hold all involved accountable, including the Murdaugh law firm known now as PMPED (later the Parker Law Group) and various banks.Through new insights and raw emotion, they revisit the moment justice began to stir — and the human cost of exposing corruption in plain sight.
Before Murdaugh: Death in the Family became a Hulu Original Series, there was a podcast — and one episode that changed everything.In this remastered edition of Episode 10: “What Happened to Gloria Satterfield — Part One,” investigative journalist Mandy Matney exposes how a decades-long pattern of deception surrounding the Murdaugh family reached a heartbreaking turning point. What began as a mysterious “trip and fall” at the Murdaugh home unraveled into a shocking financial conspiracy — one that stole from a grieving family and revealed the first cracks in a powerful Lowcountry dynasty.With new commentary from producer David Moses and never-before-heard reflections, this remaster revisits the moment when Mandy's relentless reporting shifted from true crime storytelling into a fight for systemic accountability. Featuring the first-ever interview with attorney Eric Bland, this episode marked the beginning of a collaboration that would help bring sunlight to South Carolina's “good old boy” network — and ultimately inspire Hulu's Murdaugh: Death in the Family.As Mandy says, “I don't know…” — the phrase that opened every episode — wasn't just a hook; it was a declaration of truth-seeking in real time. This is the story that made the world see the Murdaughs not as a mystery, but as a mirror reflecting corruption, loyalty, and betrayal.Let's dive in...
So many things have happened to me and here is an update of what's been going on. Just some girl talk and of course some advice.

Join investigative journalist Mandy Matney, as we look back at how the Murdaugh name was brought up more than 40 times during the course of the investigation of Stephen Smith's death in 2015. No suspects have been named to this day... but Mandy's original deep dive into the investigation file is so important to providing context on where the case stands today. As a result of their investigation into the homicides of Maggie and Paul, the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) reopened Smith's 2015 death investigation, and once again publicly linked it to the Murdaugh name. Smith was found dead with severe head trauma, and rumors documented in the police investigation file implicated a connection to Buster Murdaugh and others. In this episode, we'll hear SCHP patrol investigator Todd Proctor interviewing several Hampton Kids about Stephen 's death... and we'll pull at those threads wherever they lead.... Let's dive in...
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.... Let's dive in...
Investigative journalist Mandy Matney looks back at the Murdaugh family's involvement in the 2019 boat crash on Archers Creek near Parris Island that killed Mallory Beach and the subsequent investigation. She shares the challenges she faced while investigating the Mallory Beach case, expresses suspicion over missing evidence, and emphasizes the importance of persistence and listening to sources in investigative reporting. On this episode, we dive into dash cam videos and depositions, that suggest a potential cover-up by law enforcement and the Murdaugh family. Paul Murdaugh's blood test revealed he was 3.5 times over the legal limit. Anthony Cook, a passenger, identified Paul as the driver, but this was not reflected in official reports. The Beaufort County Sheriff's Office and SC DNR's initial handling of the case is criticized for bias. Matney also mentions ongoing legal actions and the impact of the Murdaugh family's influence on the criminal justice system.Lots to cover, so let's dive in...
In the month after Maggie and Paul's murders, there was very little information available about the double homicide investigation. Mandy's sources in law enforcement were extremely careful and tightlipped — so it took months to get enough information about the double homicide that would fill up a podcast episode.On June 7, 2021, Alex Murdaugh called 911 at 10:07 PM, reporting his wife and son were shot. The 911 call was released six weeks later. Paul was shot twice, and Maggie was shot multiple times. SLED took over the case due to potential conflicts of interest with the local sheriff's office. At the time this episode published, no arrests had been made, and speculation surrounded Alex Murdaugh as a person of interest. We look at how the Colleton County Sheriff's office quickly recused itself from the investigation and the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) took over the case.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell shine a light on the viral incident now known as Squires-Gate where kids were held at gunpoint by a cop on Hilton Head Island When off-duty Beaufort County Sheriff's Deputy Billy Squires pulled a gun on a group of teens and dragged them across the street, uproar led to silence from officials. Sheriff P.J. Tanner has not addressed the misconduct, and the system seemed more interested in protecting its own than protecting children. Mandy and Liz walk listeners through the chilling footage, the sheriff's troubling response, and the tangled web of “good ole boy” networks that have kept the Lowcountry under the grip of unchecked power for decades. But beyond the headlines and hashtags, this episode centers the victims — the terrified teenagers whose trauma has been met with indifference by those sworn to serve and protect. Plus a little update from Horry County on (38:58) Weldon Boyd.... So much to cover, so let's dive in!
