Investigative Journalist Mandy Matney discusses the Stephen Smith case, highlighting the 2194-day wait for justice and the reopening of the investigation by the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) in 2021 after alluding to finding new evidence in their investigation of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh's murders. Smith was found dead on July 8, 2015, on Sandy Run Road, with no apparent evidence of a vehicle accident.

On today's episode, you'll also hear from Stephen's mom Sandy about the kind person he was and listen to police interviews that take several wild turns.

From early recordings at journalist Mandy Matney's kitchen table to a global sensation ranked #1 on apple with a scripted series on Hulu, the Murdaugh Murders Podcast exposes the truth from a tangled web of deceit, theft and murder. In these first 93 MMP episodes, we give voice to victims and gets the story straight amidst the noise then continue coverage of other cases on True Sunlight Podcast... same feed, same great mission. On this very first episode Mandy Matney discusses the Murdaugh family's history and recent tragedies, including the 2019 boat crash involving Paul Murdaugh, the 2015 death of Stephen Smith, and the 2018 death of Gloria Satterfield. We detail the double homicide of Paul and his mother Maggie on June 7th 2021, noting the involvement of SLED due to potential conflicts of interest with local law enforcement. At this point in time, Alex Murdaugh, the family patriarch, is a person of interest but provided an alibi that would later implode due to good police work and some dogged reporting holding those agencies accountable. In order to understand the double homicide investigation of Paul and Maggie Murdaugh, we need to understand the Murdaugh family, their power in South Carolina and the three mysterious deaths tied to them...

Follow all the breaking news and current Murdaugh retrial coverage on the True Sunlight Podcast.

While there are a number of victims connected to this saga, we want to remind everyone that Mallory Beach was a bright young lady who lit up every room she walked into. On this 5th episode of the Murdaugh Murders Podcast, investigative journalist Mandy Matney looks at newly released evidence from SCDNR and other agencies we expose what went wrong in that investigation to ensure law enforcement agencies are doing everything they can to achieve justice for all the victims connected to this saga.

All Murdaugh breaking news coverage is first published to the True Sunlight Podcast feed and this MMP feed is updated only with major alerts or activity. It happened on a Wednesday… Investigative Journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell break down the 27-page Alex Murdaugh murder conviction reversal that essentially boils down to two words: Blame Becky. They wrestle with the uncomfortable truth that money seems to help a defendant's chances at the state's highest court — while sticking to their belief that the evidence still points to one person who went down to the kennels and lied about it. In a unanimous 5-0 decision, the South Carolina Supreme Court reversed Alex Murdaugh's double-murder conviction, ruling that Colleton County Clerk Becky Hill "placed her fingers on the scales of justice." They also unpack the court's new guardrails on financial-crimes testimony at retrial, including the gutting decision to call Tony Satterfield's words unfairly prejudicial. Plus: reactions from Eric Bland, Mark Tinsley, AG Alan Wilson, and AG candidate David Pascoe. Same case. Same evidence. Same liar. Round Two starts now.
