True Sunlight Podcast co-hosts Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and everyone’s favorite attorney Eric Bland — talk about the potential damage caused by a TikTok lawyer from South Carolina who appears to have been leaked at least one of the ethics complaints filed against Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill in July. Also on the show, a discussion about why Becky’s credibility might factor into the decision to grant Alex Murdaugh a new trial. Plus, if Alex is granted a new trial, what does this mean for the sanctity of the jury process moving forward.

On today’s show we also talk about the different types of defamation that exist and what South Carolina’s oath of civility means in terms of how lawyers are expected to conduct themselves in and out of the courtroom. One thing we’re discovering behind the scenes is that just about every aspect of what’s happening to Becky Hill is tied to a Murdaugh associate in some way — either directly or indirectly.

This surprises us zero, obviously. And we'll talk about the why's in this episode. 

Let's get into it...
