Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland now have a fuller picture of the #SquiresGate case in Hilton Head Island after it went viral last week.  On today's episode, the gang talks about what it took to get the Beaufort County Sheriff's Office to fire off-duty deputy Master Sgt. Billy Squires after video emerged of him pointing his service weapon at four teenagers in his neighborhood on a Sunday evening while allegedly intoxicated and wearing part of his uniform over his regular clothes.  A shocking video depicts the kids begging for their lives and one of them calling out his mom had people across the spectrum and all over the world calling for justice. It took five days for the sheriff's office to terminate Squires even though many of his 11 policy violations were immediately apparent.  Mandy, Liz and Eric talk about what it took to pressure the good ole boys into holding one of their own accountable.  *Since recording this episode, Live 5 News Reported SLED Chief Mark Keel said, “At this time, there is no evidence to indicate the fire was intentionally set. SLED agents have preliminarily found there is no evidence to support a pre-fire explosion.” Referring to Circuit Judge Diane Goodstein's house fire.  ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References “Deputy fired for ‘multiple' policy violations, Beaufort County sheriff says” - Live5 WCSC, Updated Oct 4, 2025

Abortion Has Just ChangedADF Attorney Denise Burke on the Show TodayA decision recently from the U.S. Supreme Court allows states to redirect taxpayer dollars away from abortion facilities like Planned Parenthood. In Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys represented the director of the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. The high court's ruling means that the state can direct Medicaid funding—funds intended to help low-income individuals obtain necessary medical assistance—to comprehensive health care rather than entities that exist primarily to perform abortions.What that means in Alaska is complicated by the fact that the Supreme Court here, one of the most radical in the country, has consistently manufactured a "right to abortion" in our State Constitution. That being said, there is still a road map to protecting unborn and their mothers. The Medina case provides great leverage for employing strategies to redirect the State portion of Medicaid, which is a Federal/State collaborative program, toward real community health care centers that outnumber Planned Parenthood in Alaska 88 to 2. Don't believe the lies about less access to healthcare. What this really means is less access to abortion.On the Legislative front, the Big Beautiful Bill, that narrowly passed the U.S. Senate with a tie-breaking vote from Vice President J.D. Vance, has, for the first time in history, stripped Planned Parenthood of some $500 million. The BBB still has to go back to the U.S. House for a vote on the changes made by the Senate. The provision, originally proposed as a ten year measure to defund the abortion giant, was modified to just one year but it is a phenomenal first step in redistributing Federal funds to the more than 8,800 federally qualified community health care centers around the nation.Today, I have the pleasure of chatting with Denise Burke at Alliance Defending Freedom on these two critical measures that have changed the pro life landscape. As senior counsel Denise is a member of the Center for Public Policy at ADF. In this role, her efforts are directed toward protecting life from conception to natural death and defending the conscience rights of healthcare professionals.Prior to joining ADF, Burke served as vice president of legal affairs for Americans United for Life, where she routinely advised legislators, policy groups, and state attorneys general on life issues. I hope you can tune in.Support the show

Will Mundhenke is a State Naturalist with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, Chair with the South Carolina Native Fish Coalition, and leads multiple programs through the state to get new anglers introduced to their plentiful fisheries.

We also talk about the Black Bass Slam, a challenge to catch all four species of bass in the state, which is a great opportunity to see the diverse habitats that support fishing around South Carolina. A note from Will regarding his use of the terms “spotted bass” and “Alabama bass” in the episode: "According to the South Carolina Hunting and Fishing Laws and Regulations Guide, the four black bass species in the state officially include the Spotted Bass. However, the agency is conducting genetic research to determine whether or not this is in fact an Alabama Bass instead of the previously named Spotted Bass."

On today's True Sunlight Podcast, Co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell talk to South Carolina Victims Assistance Network attorney Sarah Ford and Karl Stoller, a father who continues to seek justice for his daughter's sexual assault, about the latest arrest of Bowen Turner. Bowen — who was accused by three girls in three separate counties of rape — avoided prison time for those sexual assaults after he received a sweetheart plea deal in 2022, which his lawyer-legislator was able to secure because of his implied influence over the prosecution and the judge.

Antonio Sadler grew up in a tight knit family where his dad was a marine corps vet with a bit of a reputation as a tough guy. Through elementary school, Antonio showed great promise, even participating in several extra curricular academic programs. He was bullied as he entered junior high, which motivated him to “borrow” a weapon from his dad's closet, resulting in an arrest and expulsion from school, leading him down a path of trouble. For many years he constantly battled internally between the good and bad decisions he was making, until a wrongful arrest and subsequent convition landed him in the state penitentiary. Listen as he describes how his transformation, empowered by a forward-thinking warden and some true corrective opportunities provided by the South Carolina Department of Corrections, set him on a path of change and service that he continues to follow today.Antonio's early life 2:15Facing the law 9:30The allure of bad decisions 24:00Stopping himself through withdrawals 37:00Getting out of that world 43:00Help from a higher power 56:00“I saw my daughters and I realized how much I failed them.

Host Bob St.Pierre is joined by Quail Forever's Program Manager Andy Edwards for a conversation focused on the upcoming bobwhite quail hunting season in the Southeast. Michael Hook, small game program coordinator for South Carolina Department of Natural Resources and chair of the National Bobwhite and Grasslands Initiative – Technical Committee and Tim Caughran, PF & QF's director of field operations in the South Region, roll through a highlight reel of hunting opportunities across southern bobwhite quail states.

He also explains his day-to-day responsibilities as a small game program coordinator. • Caughran touches on Virginia, Florida, Arkansas and Louisiana, while stressing the importance of being willing to venture deeper into the places other folks aren't willing to go when in search of public land bobwhites. • Edwards highlights Georgia and touches on ways to use onX Hunt and your knowledge of quail habitat to seek out new areas to hunt this season. Check out Quail Forever's full state-by-state quail hunting forecast for more details.

Co-hosts Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Eric Bland have a field day unpacking all the nonsense from The Fall of the House of Murdaugh, Fox Nation's three-part series told from Alex Murdaugh's and Buster Murdaugh's perspectives. From Buster's claims about worrying the “real killers” are still out there to Alex's jailhouse diary to straight-up lies about what happened the night of the boat crash, the docu-series is yet another horrible idea from lawyers Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin, who can't seem to stop doubling-down. Last week was jam-packed with even more nonsense from the Murdaugh camp — both good and bad.  One good thing that came out of last week was that the South Carolina Department of Corrections announced its prosecution of Alex for violating two prison rules. One rule was broken when he read his so-called diary over the phone so Jim Griffin could record it and give it to Fox Nation. The second rule was broken when Alex used another inmate's code to make phone calls. Anyway, obviously Liz, Eric and I had a lot to say about ALL of these things. Let's get into it!
