Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland cover a lot of ground in this latest episode, starting with the death of Pope Francis, a religious leader who routinely called for justice and spoke out against hypocrisy. What will the future of the church look like now? Also on the show, Alex Murdaugh’s co-conspirator Russell Laffitte appeared in court last week to finally admit his guilt. Is this the end of the road for the federal cases in the Murdaugh saga, or will there be more charges filed against yet-unknown players? Plus, three years after Eric Bland and First Circuit Solicitor David Pascoe filed complaints with the South Carolina Judicial Conduct Committee against Judge Carmen Mullen, they finally have an answer from the mysterious and secretive committee: There’s nothing to see here. In other words, Judge Mullen will not face any disciplinary action for her role in Alex Murdaugh’s theft from the Satterfields. And the CoJ team is fired up about it! Finally, Mandy, Liz and Eric talk about the disturbing details that are emerging from the Scott Spivey case in Horry County — specifically the calls that one of Scott’s shooters made in the aftermath of Scott’s killing. This case is about to blow the lid off corruption inside Horry County Police Department, SLED and the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office. ⚖️ Cups Up!! ☕ Episode Resources “This is hypocrisy.” - Pope Francis 🗣️ “Russell Laffitte Pleads Guilty to Conspiracy, Wire Fraud, Bank Fraud, and Misapplying Bank Funds” - United States Attorney’s Office Press Release, April 18, 2025 📰 Judge Carmen Mullen Episode - MMP 65 🎧 “Message to would-be rapists in Beaufort County: You’ll probably get away with it” by Liz Farrrell, The Island Packet, May 10, 2017 📰 SC Commission on Judicial Conduct Public Member Application Form 📄 About the Office of Disciplinary Counsel (ODC) Website 🌐 “Rep.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland get a dose of breaking news mid-episode when the warrant for Angie Solomon’s “murder for hire” arrest comes in, raising all-new questions. In 2020, Angie’s 18-year-old son Grant was killed in a strange set of circumstances while outside a gym while his father, Aaron Solomon, was present. Since then, Angie sought justice for her son — as well as for her young daughter, who has accused Aaron of sexual abuse. Was Angie really trying to hire someone to kill Aaron? Or was she set up? Also on the show, a discussion of the “Gone Girls” documentary about the Long Island serial killer. Would you open the door to a stranger in distress? And what are Rex Heuermann’s connections to South Carolina? Plus, a double dose of breaking news as Eric gets a call from Creighton Waters in the middle of the recording about Russell’s federal and state charges. He’s pleading GUILTY and saving us all the trouble of watching him squirm in court. And finally, it’s finally been announced! Actress Brittany Snow — known for her roles in “Pitch Perfect” and “John Tucker Must Die” — has joined the cast of Hulu’s “Murdaugh Murders” series in the role of … Mandy!
