Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell have spent the past year preparing for Charleston-area good ole boy Michael Colucci to be tried again for the 2015 murder of his wife, Sara-Lynn Moore Colucci.  Twice a retrial was scheduled. And twice it didn't happen. On Tuesday, after the jury had been seated, South Carolina Judge Roger M. Young quashed the indictment of Colucci and dismissed what was to be a two-week trial and the end of what had become the oldest open murder case in the state. For 10 years, Sara-Lynn's family, including her mother and her only daughter, Bishop, who was a child at the time her mother died, have had to sit silently time and time again as the justice system continued to fail them. What didn't help matters? Original prosecutor and current public official Megan (Burchstead) Burleson's surly and defensive behavior on the stand on Tuesday…

Investigative journalists and co-hosts of True Sunlight Podcast Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland discuss the heinous details contained in court documents about what suspended South Carolina Representative RJ May has been accused of doing and why it was important for the U.S. Attorney's Office to get so graphic.  Over the course of five days in 2024, RJ May is accused of sharing 220 different child-sex abuse videos — including videos of babies being raped, bestiality with children and sex acts between toddlers and grown women and men. He shared those videos 479 times with other “like-minded pedophiles,” according to court records.  Even more stunning is that while the FBI conducted its investigation, RJ May remained a lawmaker and even got re-elected — despite the powers that be allegedly being aware of the nature of that investigation. RJ May's case should serve as a wake-up call for everyone.  Also on the show, Michael Colucci's retrial is this week. Mandy, Liz and Eric talk about the incredible accusations made in the motion to dismiss that Colucci's team filed Friday, accusing SLED and South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson's Office of sitting on “conclusive evidence” that Michael's wife, Sara-Lynn Colucci — whom Michael is accused of killing — had plans to hang herself.  ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References “Will RJ May be expelled from SC House?

Are all UFO/UAP encounters the result of deception and disinformation created by the U.S. government? Such claims have been made many times in the past 75 years and have recently been resurrected from the dusty archives of the DoD's UFO Library. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp discuss the latest attempts by former Defense Department insiders to cast doubt on all UFO cases, incidents, photos, videos, witnesses, and even the testimony of future whistleblowers who have not yet gone public. Can journalists pierce the veil of secrecy and lies? Sometimes. One way to circumvent psyops and outrageous cover stories is to present compelling evidence that the public can evaluate for itself. A video recorded by a military sensor over a conflict zone has been hidden for years. The huge disc-shaped mystery object was seen as it slipped in and out of clouds, abruptly changed direction, and was labeled by the military as a “UAP.” This is the first time the public has been able to see the massive “disc” as it zips into cloud cover, then reverses itself.

On February 11, 2022, David Shier disappeared from his home in Trinidad, Colorado. That morning, his wife, Rosemarie, saw him around 11 a.m. before she left home to run some errands. When she returned later that day, David was gone. She tried calling him, but he didn't answer. She also reached out to friends and family, but no one had seen or heard from Dave. As the hours passed and Dave failed to return home, the family decided it was time to report him missing.Dave's truck was still parked at home, so it was assumed that he may have left on foot, possibly heading to his workshop in the neighboring town of Starkville. Deputies went to the shop and gave the area a quick look, but there was no sign of him there. They combed the path between his home and the workshop, but still no clues. Later, it was discovered that a neighbor's trail camera captured Dave walking away from his property on the day he vanished, but it wasn't enough to tell where he was going or what may have happened next. Despite extensive searches of the surrounding area, not a single trace of David Shier was ever found.For a while, it seemed like the case had gone cold. But about a year later, something unexpected happened, something that brought David's name back into the spotlight. The county coroner came under scrutiny by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation after being accused of improper secret burials, misuse of funds, and shocking misconduct.At first, it sounded like a completely unrelated scandal, but something shocking and unexpected happened that prompted the investigation. While exhuming the body of one man, investigators found a second body buried in the same grave. A body that wasn't supposed to be there. For the Shier family, the possibility that it could be Dave was chilling. The mystery surrounding Dave's disappearance only deepened, leaving his loved ones with more questions than answers.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of David Shier, please contact the Las Animas County Sheriff's Office at 719-846-2211.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

FOLLOW-UP TO THE #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER 22 MURDERSThe truth about the deadliest criminal incident in Canadian history has remained untold—until now.Investigative journalist Paul Palango's 22 Murders examined the April 2020 shooting spree committed by Gabriel Wortman that began in Portapique, Nova Scotia, and ended thirteen and a half hours later when Wortman was shot dead by RCMP officers. The episode left numerous serious questions in its wake—most especially why was the killer able to evade police in such limited geography for so long?Since then, the government called a public inquiry into the massacres—the Mass Casualty Commission. Though Palango unearthed a treasure trove of evidence pointing to the possibility that Wortman or someone close to him was acting as a police agent, the commission evaded all the big questions and let the RCMP off with a slap on the wrist. To this day, no one has been held accountable.In his new book, Palango continues to crack the case, delving deeper into the evidence and testimonies of the witnesses who have been ignored. Drawing on his vast experience as an investigative reporter, he has mined the thousands of pages of commission documents to reveal the wall of secrecy and deceptions constructed by the RCMP and the criminal justice system, exposing new facts that may alter the public's perception of what really happened.A tour-de-force of reportage, Anatomy of a Cover-Up accomplishes what the commission set out to do—uncover the truth about the Nova Scotia massacres and bring long overdue justice to its victims.

There are many lingering questions about the two-day killing spree by Gabriel Wortman that killed 22 people in 2020 in Nova Scotia, even after a joint federal/provincial commission wrapped up its inquiry. Investigative journalist Paul Palango joins Brian to discuss why he thinks all signs point to RCMP covering up that Wortman was working undercover for them before his rampage, as he exposes in his new book, Anatomy of a Cover-Up. He explains that it's why police did nothing about reports that Wortman had illegal guns, and why the story of Wortman's eventual killing by cop, and the account of his girlfriend, don't line up with the evidence. If he's right, then Canadians have been fed a lot of lies by officials — and we finally deserve the truth. (Recorded June 12, 2025) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of The Guilty Files: Revisited, Brian and Dani pull back the heavy velvet curtain on one of the South's most chilling and misunderstood cases: The Corpsewood Manor Murders.Set deep in the remote woods of Georgia, the brutal killings of Dr. Charles Scudder and Joseph Odom in 1982 were far more than a simple robbery gone wrong.Brian uses his law enforcement and investigative background to walk us through the crime scene, the suspects, and the tragic chain of events that led two killers to this secluded sanctuary. Meanwhile, Dani peels back the layers of fear, rumor, and societal judgment that surrounded Corpsewood Manor—examining the cultural anxieties of the Bible Belt, homophobia, Satanic Panic, and the dangerous intersection of isolation and rumor-fueled hysteria.Together, they explore the media myths, police missteps, and moral panic that still linger around this case, asking hard questions about justice, bias, and the way small-town narratives can distort the truth. Was Corpsewood a true den of evil as some claimed? Or were Scudder and Odom simply unconventional victims in a deeply intolerant time?It's a case filled with shocking details, cultural complexities, and moral gray areas—and one that hits very close to home for Brian in more ways than one.

He had made plans to go hunting with a friend, but never showed up at their meeting spot. When he failed to report to work the next day, concern quickly turned into alarm.Ian's family and friends launched a desperate search across the rugged terrain of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest along Washington's Cascade Mountains. Exhausted and running on adrenaline, they scoured the wilderness for any sign of him.Then, something surreal happened. Ian's FJ Cruiser came barreling down the mountain. But Ian wasn't driving. A brief, tense encounter with the man behind the wheel ended with him fleeing into the forest, and a chase that didn't last long.That encounter triggered a massive manhunt for an armed and dangerous fugitive, and it raised even more questions about what really happened to Ian Eckles.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form: http://www.thevanishedpodcast.com/case-submission/.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramTwitterPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Leveraging an attorney's health in court to benefit defendants … and further hurt victims?  Also on the show it's been four years since Alex Murdaugh murdered his wife and son … and why phrasing it that way matters.  Plus churchy business bro “Pastor” JP Miller marries his alleged longtime mistress Suzie Skinner in a highly public (but still dumpy) beach ceremony.

If you came expecting a neat keynote, you were in for something else entirely.What he gave us instead in fourteen minutes was part sermon, part therapy, and part existential gut check for anyone shaping the future.Here's what stuck:“This isn't a rehearsal.”Fred opened with vulnerability: standing in front of his peers, in a room that lives and breathes venture, ready to say the uncomfortable things.He asked us to zoom out—to consider the power we hold as people who don't just fund companies but shape the narratives that shape the future.“We sit in the cockpit alongside the founders. That's where creation happens now. That's our canvas.”But with that power comes disorientation. Because the world we're building into? It's fragmented. Conflicted. Loaded with moral confusion.On Truth, Power, and the Collapse of Shared NarrativesFred pulled no punches.“Historically, we had shared systems for truth. Religion. Philosophy. Math. But now? Everything's been deconstructed. Lived experience replaced truth. Everything's power.”Welcome to the legacy of critical theory. Foucault, Derrida—ideas that once helped explain systems of oppression have now left us with... nothing to agree on.“We're left in a nihilistic landscape. Everything is a power struggle. There's no shared center.”And it's not just academic. It unfolds in cycles of outrage, weaponized identities, and moral ambiguity. Tech doesn't escape this, it amplifies it.The Algorithm Doesn't Care About Truth“We thought more information meant more truth. It doesn't.”Truth, Fred reminded us, is costly. Outrage is cheap. And platforms optimize for what's fast, not what's real.“A four-second tweet can destroy someone's life. Investigative journalism takes months.”Now, enter AI. Beautiful, powerful—and deeply destabilizing.“We're staring at it like it's the sun or a cobra. We don't know what it is yet. But it's changing the rules faster than we can track.”The Danger of Playing Games We Don't Know We're InA warning:You may think you're being righteous. You may think you're being helpful.“But maybe you're playing a social game. Maybe you're being used. And maybe you don't even know it.”In a world where narratives shift daily, we often end up reinforcing the very dynamics we oppose.“You want to call out a Nazi salute online? Be careful. You might just normalize the thing you hate.”So Where Does That Leave Us?In a word: Stewardship.Fred closed with a challenge:“This is the most powerful tool mankind has ever created. What the fuck are we doing with it?”We're not just funding innovation. We're authoring meaning. In an anxious world, that's a profound responsibility.One Last Question (That Stuck With Us All)“What is the quality of the conversation we're having?”With ourselves. With each other. With our founders. With the world.Because if we don't ask that, the rest doesn't matter.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell encountered something new on the JP Miller beat over the past week and it might just be his villain origin story. Myrtle Beach churchy-business bro “Pastor” John-Paul Miller — who stands accused of stalking and harassing his estranged wife Mica Francis and allegedly contributing to her death in April 2024 — got married this past weekend to his rumored longtime paramour Suzie Skinner — the widow of a quadriplegic man who was found dead at the bottom of his community pool in September 2021 (two weeks after he allegedly told JP to stay away from his wife and kids). The beach wedding appeared to be hastily pulled together and none of their combined seven children were seen at the wedding, according to sources. The big question everyone has on their minds after Sunday's nuptials: What are these two up to? Also on the show Mandy and Liz share more recordings in the Scott Spivey case (aka the Horry County Police Department corruption case). Turns out North Myrtle Beach businessman Weldon Boyd got even more help from police officers after he and his friend Bradley Williams shot and killed Scott on Sept. 9, 2023. LUNASHARK reporter and researcher Beth Braden discovered that about an hour after Scott was killed, HCPD Officer Kerry Higgs advised Weldon to stop talking because he might have to walk his story back later. Higgs told Weldon to wait for detectives to get to the scene because they would give him the timeline and chronology of events (presumably so Weldon could shape his narrative around it).  Meanwhile a detective with HCPD — the one who interviewed the only witness to see what Scott did (didn't do) in the very last moments of his life — filed a report mixing up the order of events in a way that only served to help corroborate Weldon's account … directly contradicting the witness' 911 call and his video interview.  Plus, we'll give an update on surprising news out of Houston, TX connected to the (2:32) Christa Bauer Gilley case.

But where achieving reductions in emissions is impossible or expensive, an alternative is to try and arrange for carbon to be taken out of the atmosphere instead. The markets have thrived on linking buyers of carbon offsets - big firms, and even governments - to development projects in poorer countries, where land and labour for tree planting are cheap.But can these projects be safely verified and measured? Are local communities being exploited to try and make the maths add up?

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell are back and we begin today's episode revisiting (01:02) how Scott Spivey was shot to death in his vehicle by Weldon Boyd and Bradley Williams in September 2023.  A significant development comes in the form of a "legal filing", an "absurd 9-page motion to stay" by Bradley Williams' attorney, Robert E. Lee… yup, that's the name he prefers… We'll also share a disturbing, but pertinent call between Weldon and his granny discussing the incident.  Then (23:00) we share updates on the 'updated' sentence of suspended Hilton Head Island attorney Peter Strauss, the as-yet-unscheduled sentencing for Russell Laffitte, Michael Colucci's retrial scheduled for June 16th and Lee Gilley's Houston status hearing on June 4th for his murder trial.   As our primary focus, (25:06) Mandy and Liz critically examine the 2025 Horry County Police investigation into the 2021 death of Chris Skinner, husband of JP Miller's alleged mistress, highlighting discrepancies between the official ruling of accidental death and video evidence suggesting something else.

More than two thirds of guns recovered at Mexican crime scenes originate in the U.S. For decades, Mexico has struggled with staggering levels of gun violence fuelled in large part by weapons trafficked across its northern border. Now an investigation published by The Conversation has arrived at a new estimate of the scale of this illicit gun trade between the U.S. and Mexico in 2022: 135,000 guns. Investigative journalist Sean Campbell and Topher McDougal, a professor of economic development at the University of San Diego, spent a year combing through multiple databases and court documents and conducting interviews to understand how the flow of guns works. Their investigation reveals where in the U.S. the guns are coming from, what impact these American guns are having in Mexico, and how difficult it is for American law enforcement agencies to prosecute those trafficking guns across the border.This episode of The Conversation Weekly was written and produced by Mend Mariwany and Gemma Ware.

They dissect the charges against Hill, clarifying that she faces misconduct, obstruction and perjury allegations... but not for jury tampering, despite Team Murdaugh's narrative. The hosts reveal how Hill seemed to embrace the attention, and how 'Backstage' Becky's actions, like charging high fees and allegedly showing sealed photos of victims' bodies to media at a party, raised all sorts of alarms. Did the Murdaugh defense team see Hill as an "easy target" to base an appeal on and what was the role of attorney Joe McCulloch, present throughout the trial for... a screenplay? And what was the complicity of media members who viewed sealed evidence... Will there be consequences? We hope so.  Despite these issues, we strongly believe Alex Murdaugh received a fair trial, and question the credibility of anyone alleging that jury tampering occurred.  Plus, we address the P.

Last week, we brought you Part 1 of Larry Riegel's story. You learned about Larry's life, career, and sudden disappearance from Yakima, Washington, around Christmas in 2009. On Christmas morning, Larry spoke with his mother, and around 4 PM that afternoon, he had a conversation with his son, Brian. But when Brian called back later that evening, Larry didn't answer. Larry had planned to visit his family the day after Christmas, but when he failed to show up for their annual holiday gathering on the evening of December 26, they knew something was wrong. Larry would never have missed the family celebration, especially without letting them know. At the time, Larry was living with his girlfriend, Ladena. Family members contacted Ladena to inquire about Larry, but they were met with a series of contradictory, shifting stories. Ladena claimed Larry had left for the coast, even though Larry hated traveling there. This was another red flag for Larry's family.Determined to find answers, Larry's sister, Susan, went directly to Ladena. Susan was met with a confusing mix of bizarre and inconsistent tales that didn't seem to lead anywhere. Susan couldn't make sense of it at the time, but over the years, some of those details began to take on new meaning.The family launched their own search, trying to find anyone who had seen or heard from Larry. Despite their efforts, no solid leads emerged. As weeks passed, Larry's family only felt more desperate. In January, they decided to report Larry missing. However, when one of Larry's sisters tried to file the report, she was told she couldn't report Larry missing. Larry's sisters were shocked to learn that on January 5, many days after Larry's Christmas disappearance, Ladena had gone to the police, claiming that Larry returned to their home and assaulted her on January 4. That accusation dramatically altered the perception of Larry's character and disappearance. Authorities believed he was on the run. To those who knew Larry best, none of this added up.Years later, frustrated by the lack of progress and the mounting inconsistencies, Larry's family demanded a meeting with the police chief. That meeting marked a pivotal moment in the case. A new investigator, Nolan Wentz, was assigned to take a fresh look at the evidence.For years, it seemed like Larry's case had been left to gather dust, forgotten and cold. But now, with a new investigator on the case, there was hope that the truth would finally be uncovered. With fresh eyes and new determination, what was once a dead-end investigation started showing signs of life.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Larry Riegel, please contact the Yakima Police Department at (509) 575-6200 or the Yakima County Crime Stoppers at (800) 248-TIPS.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — and the whole LUNASHARK team — are celebrating 100 episodes of True Sunlight Podcast, the show that emerged from their relentless pursuit of justice in the highly acclaimed Murdaugh Murders Podcast (which, of course, is the basis for the star-studded Hulu scripted series currently filming in Atlanta).  What better way to celebrate two years of post-Murdaugh reporting than with an old throwback … breaking Murdaugh news on a Wednesday! Former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill was arrested and charged with four felony counts — two misconduct in office charges, an obstruction of justice charge and perjury.  Though three of the charges are related to Alex Murdaugh's murder trial they are NOT related to Dick and Jim's claims of jury-tampering. Two of the charges are specifically related to photos of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh's dead bodies, which were allegedly leaked to a "news" agency during the trial and later distributed to random people following the Murdaugh case. Hmmm... But will these charges affect Alex's chances at getting a new trial?  Also on the show, an update in the (18:49) Jane Doe lawsuits against Myrtle Beach “pastor” John-Paul Miller.  Plus, our continuing coverage of (34:17) the Weldon Boyd Calls. From the second North Myrtle Beach businessman opened his truck door after shooting 33-year-old Scott Spivey of Tabor City, North Carolina, to death in September 2023, Boyd began his search for the perfect narrative — one that would explain his presence on Camp Swamp Road and fit the definition of the Stand Your Ground law; that would explain why Scott was shot to death in the back and in his truck; one that integrated the emerging bits of information Weldon appeared to be getting from the shadows of the so-called investigation by Horry County Police Department.  Lots to cover, so let's dive in...

It was Christmas 2009 when 57-year-old Lawrence Riegel vanished from Yakima, Washington. Larry had plans to visit his family the day after Christmas, but he never showed up, which was completely out of character for Larry. He was known for always arriving with his famous peach pie in hand. At the time, Larry was living with his girlfriend, Ladena, who told the family that Larry had left town and headed for the coast. That explanation didn't sit right with his loved ones. Larry didn't like traveling to the coast and would never have missed Christmas, especially without calling to let his family know.Ladena later said that Larry returned in early January, and the two got into a physical altercation. Larry supposedly walked out and was never seen or heard from again. This new story raised even more questions. No one else has reported seeing or hearing from Larry since Christmas Day. Though Ladena's account has long been viewed with suspicion, Larry's disappearance remains unsolved more than 15 years later.Today, Larry's family is pushing for a renewed effort to reexamine his case, hoping to uncover new information that will lead them to Larry.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Larry Riegel, please contact the Yakima Police Department at (509) 575-6200 or the Yakima County Crime Stoppers at (800) 248-TIPS.
