In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," defense attorney Bob Motta discusses Buster Murdaugh's lawsuit against Warner Media, Netflix, and others for accusing him of involvement in the death of Stephen Smith in their documentaries. Motta defends Buster, arguing that he's a victim of his family's dark legacy, particularly his father Alex Murdaugh's crimes. Motta finds the accusations against Buster baseless and likens them to the unfounded allegations against Victoria Heuermann. He suggests that the lawsuit could uncover more information about Stephen Smith's murder through depositions, which provide civil attorneys with greater leeway to question witnesses than criminal investigations. Motta hopes the suit will clear Buster's name and refocus the investigation on finding the true culprit.
