The Murdochs Are Not Like My Best Friend

The state is one of several media outlets whose reporting has repeatedly favored the Murdochs and the good old boys. The story was written by likely their oldest reporter, John Monk.

A single inquiry from a journalist can change the course of would-be corruption. It is a journalist job to shine sunlight wherever they think the vampires are.

Episode notes

A motion filed last week by John T. Lay and Peter M. McCoy Jr. — the two attorneys who were appointed as co-receivers in November 2021 to tally Murdaugh’s assets — revealed even more shocking and unheard of banking practices at Palmetto State Bank.

It’s yet another layer of this story that shows us how powerful institutions treated Alex Murdaugh differently and therefore, potentially played a role in his alleged crimes.

In this episode, Mandy, Liz, and fan favorite attorney Eric Bland explain the new information uncovered by the receivers and what we know about what happened to the money.

Also this week, the State newspaper published an interesting piece about Chris Wilson — the third attorney on the infamous Omaha flight. Will Wilson be a witness IF murder charges arise?

*episode edited 11-30-2022 to correct error - Cory Fleming was alleged to be on the flight to Omaha, not Russell Laffitte.
