Casey Manning: The Kevin Bacon of Everything That Is Wrong With the State's Justice System

True Sunlight co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell go down the rabbit hole on South Carolina Judge Casey Manning, who is perhaps most famously known for his role in the secret release of convicted murderer Jeroid Price, who remains on the run.

Mandy and Liz break down a 2019 case involving the brutal murder of a South Carolina mom of five by her ex-boyfriend. Judge Manning’s behavior during the trial was reportedly so egregious and awful that it now threatens to overturn the man’s conviction.

In sharing yet another example of South Carolina’s broken justice system, True Sunlight continues to bring attention to the world that created a monster like Alex Murdaugh. You’ll also hear a quick Stephen Smith update and plans for future cases.

And since we need a break - we’re taking the week of July 4 OFF!! That means no Cup of Justice and No True Sunlight episodes next week. 

And if you want to go down a deep dive with us, we'll be sharing 500 pages of Jeroid Price's prison record with our LUNASHARK Premium members that we'll review with all premium members when we get back. 

And Starting July 1st, Premium Members will be able to visit lunasharkmedia.com to get access to searchable case files, written articles with documents, case photos, episode videos and exclusive live experiences with our hosts - all in one place. 

I’m so excited about this and so thankful for the members who support us and are helping us rekindle a love of journalism for so many. This work you are supporting is so important. 

Thank you so much for your understanding and we'll see y'all in two weeks!

 - Mandy and the LUNASHARK team
