Previously known as the Murdaugh Murders Podcast, which inspired Hulu's Original Series 'Murdaugh: Death in the Family', True Sunlight is the intersection of true crime, journalism, and systematic corruption. Celebrated journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell expose the truth wherever it leads, giving voice to victims like Mica Francis, Sara Lynn Colucci, and Christa Bauer Gilley, while still pursuing justice for all the victims you've met so far like Stephen Smith, Dallas Stoller, and others. True Sunlight values accuracy over 'access journalism', sheds light with empathy rather than exploitation, and was created as a matter of public service, not just entertainment.

TSP #151 [Part Two] - 'Celebrities', Sour Grapes & Flying Pigs - Weldon Boyd Sues Mark Tinsley 06.06.2026 42minBreak out the tin foil hats, movie theater popcorn, and lots of pins — this one's a doozy. In Part Two, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell break down one of the strangest lawsuits they've ever seen: Weldon Boyd, the man who shot and killed Scott Spivey, is suing attorney Mark Tinsley. The claim? That Tinsley manufactured a "false narrative" and chased media attention for his own "celebrity status" and "self-aggrandizement" (a phrase used nine times, for the record). With a June 10 motions hearing looming, we unpack Tinsley's motion to dismiss, a bizarre Netflix subpoena for a documentary that doesn't exist, and a fishing-expedition motion to compel naming nineteen people — including the governor and… Mandy, Liz & Beth. Sound familiar? We connect the dots between this case and the coordinated legal war launched against LUNASHARK® in November 2025. Because if we've learned anything in five years, it's that there are no coincidences.

TSP #151 [Part One] - Scott Spivey Investigation: The Case of the Missing Crime Scene Log 04.06.2026 57min[Part One of Two] In Part One of this two-part episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell begin sharing their reporting on the Horry County Police Department’s internal affairs investigation into the what went down during the (shockingly corrupt) Scott Spivey case. In September 2023, 33-year-old Scott Spivey was shot to death on Camp Swamp Road in Loris, South Carolina, by North Myrtle Beach business owner Weldon Boyd and Weldon’s friend Bradley Williams. After calling his mama and his lawyer from the scene, Weldon made another call before police arrived: to Horry County Deputy Chief Brandon Strickland. On this episode, we break down the investigation within the investigation. It’s not enough that Horry County police repeatedly broke protocol to help protect Weldon from being held accountable for Scott’s death, seasoned investigators on the scene completely mismanaged one of the most basic things to an investigation: the crime scene log. Was it sloppy police work? Or was it yet another way to help a buddy?

TSP #150 [Part Two] - Revealing The Receipts On How 'Egg Lady' Was Removed From Murdaugh Jury 29.05.2026 58min[Part Two of Two] How does a pro–Alex Murdaugh troll theory end up in The New Yorker? In Part Two of Episode #150, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell trace exactly that. James Lasdun's May 26 New Yorker story leaned into a years-old lie: that LUNASHARK®, Clerk Becky Hill, and attorney Mark Tinsley conspired to plant an "anonymous" email and get the “Egg Lady” booted from Murdaugh's jury. None of it is true — and this week, the receipts come out. For the first time, Mandy and Liz reveal the full story of whistleblower Christine Avery: the real timeline, what the team actually told her, demonstrating how the "Plan A / Plan B" framing falls apart. They expose the "narrative washing" that smuggled Christine's name onto a “Beach v. Greg Parker” witness list, the felon's Ai-generated "slop" and the lazy reporting that let a manufactured theory go national. As South Carolina barrels toward Murdaugh 2.0, this is how disinformation gets dressed up as journalism — and how we plan to punch back.

TSP #150 [Part One] - How Does a Pro-Alex Murdaugh Troll Theory End Up in The New Yorker? 28.05.2026 1h 1min[Part One of Two] In Part One of this two-part episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell break down James Lasdun's Becky Hill piece and explain why it reads less like journalism and more like the latest brick in Team Murdaugh's three-year 'narrative-laundering' project. From the recycled "pizza conspiracy" to the false claim that Mark Tinsley has known Christine Avery since 2020, this is what happens when a writer for the New Yorker wanders onto a Murdaugh chessboard perhaps without realizing he's a playing piece. Mandy and Liz connect the dots between Dick Harpootlian's subpoena-power threats, Greg Parker's attorneys, the Egg Lady juror's book written with a convicted felon, and the recycled smears designed to discredit the credible voices standing between Alex Murdaugh and an acquittal at his retrial.

TSP #149 [Part Two] - Alex Murdaugh Madness 2.0: Suing the Hand That Got Him A New Trial + Death Penalty On The Table? 22.05.2026 46min[Part Two of Two] Read this with a Film Noir voice in your head (Think Maltese Falcon or China Town) 🙂 It all came down at ten a.m. on the thirteenth of May. Five to nothing. A murder conviction, vanished like smoke through a cracked window. And just like that, the Murdaugh circus rolled back into town led by capital city Dick and bow-tie Jim, hitting every television set in America, peddling the same tired song: no motive, no weapon, holes like Swiss cheese. Then they filed a curious little lawsuit in federal court, suing the very clerk who handed their client, Alex Murdaugh, his second act. Funny business all around, but not a paycheck in sight. The Attorney General talks death penalty; everybody hollers politics. Somewhere a mysterious juror cooks collard greens and the Egg Lady wants the records unsealed… and let the record show, so do we. Meanwhile, shady lawyers keep circling Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell, hoping to silence the dames who won't stop talking. The dust hasn't settled. The shadows run long.

TSP #149 [Part One] - Will Accused Murderer Lee Gilley Actually Get Asylum After Creating An International Diplomatic Debacle In Italy? 21.05.2026 1h 19min[Part One of Two] As Houston, Texas accused murderer Lee Gilley awaits word on his fate after fleeing to Milan, Italy, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell are on the case. Will Italy grant him asylum, or treat him as a criminal to be extradited back to the United States? New details have emerged about Lee's plan to escape his Houston trial for allegedly killing his wife, Christa Bauer Gilley, and their unborn child in October 2024. Lee's brother, Matt Gilley, testified that he didn't help Lee flee on May 1, but said Lee looked different at their mother's deathbed in April — heavier, bearded, with long hair. Matt's Zoom testimony came in an emergency custody hearing for Lee and Christa's two young children. Christa's family fears Lee's relatives will take the kids to Europe, yet a Harris County judge ordered the children returned to Texas. Meanwhile, two of Lee's attorneys move to withdraw and we dig into the 1983 US–Italy Extradition Treaty while Lee’s Italian attorney Monica Grosso says that Lee is exhausted from all his recent travels.

TSP #148 - Alex Murdaugh to Get New Trial in Murders of Wife and Son + Mandy & Liz Break Down the 5-0 Reversal 14.05.2026 1h 16minIt 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.

TSP #147 [Part Two] - Latest Lawsuit Against HCPD: Retaliations, Coverups and Suspicious Promotions for Scott Spivey Investigators 11.05.2026 37min[Part Two] Join us May 15 at 10am in York, SC for Mandy’s Beach v. Parker non-party contempt hearing — wear pink. And we start with wild BREAKING DEVELOPMENTS about Lee Gilley’s flight to and detention in Turin, Italy as Texas Judge Peebles orders he forfeit his $1M bond. Then on On Part Two of #147, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell dig into a stunning new lawsuit filed by former Horry County Police Captain Danny Furr — yes, that Danny Furr, the detective who arrested JP Miller's pastor daddy Reginald Wayne Miller back in 2006. Represented by attorney Jonny McCoy, Furr's 35-page complaint paints HCPD as a sloppy, retaliatory, good-old-boy operation that punishes anyone who tells the truth. We unpack the bizarre "un-arrest" of Harold Worley's son-in-law Thomas Wade Long, the suspiciously timed promotions of officers tied to the Scott Spivey investigation, Chief Chris Leonhardt's hiring of his childhood friend as captain, secret internal affairs investigations launched in retaliation, and the moment Furr was allegedly banished from county property after going to county council.

TSP #147 [Part One] - Accused Murderer Lee Gilley Uses ‘Fake’ Belgian Passport to Flee Country Ahead of Trial, Feds Say 07.05.2026 55min[Part One] Lee Gilley — the Houston man accused of murdering his wife Christa Bauer Gilley and their unborn baby — has fled the country… to Milan, Italy! On today's episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell break down how a capital murder defendant out on $1 million bond cut off his ankle monitor on a Friday night, flew to Canada, then to Milan on fake documents under the alias "LeJeune Jean Luc Olivier," and is now begging Italy for asylum to dodge a death penalty Texas wasn't even seeking. How did Harris County pre-trial services miss this for three full days? Why did prosecutors barely fight bond in the first place? And what does it mean that Lee hired Dick DeGuerin — the lawyer behind the defenses of Robert Durst and David Koresh?

TSP #146 [Part Two] - The Strange Similarities between the Deaths of Dr. Randy Beallis’ 2nd and 3rd Wives 01.05.2026 57minOn today's episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell share their latest reporting on the Charity Beallis case out of Bonanza, Arkansas. In December — just a day after her final divorce hearing from Dr. Randy Beallis — Charity was found dead in her home next to her two 6-year-old twins, Maverick and Eliana. Dr. Beallis denied any involvement in the deaths of his soon-to-be ex-wife. And information about the investigation has not only been sparse … It's bizarre. Today — as they continue to seek answers in Charity’s case — Mandy and Liz look at the 2012 death of Shawna Beallis, Dr. Beallis’ second wife who also died of a gunshot wound. Shawna’s death was ultimately ruled a suicide. A look in the case file, however, raises serious questions about how the investigation into her death was conducted.

TSP #146 [Part One] - The (Very Messy) ‘Green Sea 14’ Sex Scandal at Horry County Police and the Polygraph that Blew It All Up 30.04.2026 53minOn today's episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell have to share a little warning first: What you’re about to hear today is NOT for kids’ ears. Which is sad to say because it’s about law enforcement officers and what they do at the workplace. In October 2020, an Horry County Police Officer, applying to work for Highway Patrol, was given a polygraph test as part of a pre-employment screening at South Carolina Department of Public Safety. The results of the test turned out to be so shocking that officials there reached out to the Horry County Police Department to let them know that they had a problem — problems that included sexual misconduct of officers, masturbation at work, drunk driving, sexting photos of genitals while in uniform and even potential child abuse. According to several sources close to the situation, this polygraph is what led to the outing of what is referred to among current and former officers as the Green Sea 14 — a group of officers, plus firefighters, who were having sex on duty and at police facilities. As Mandy and Liz continue to dig into what Green Sea 14 means, who was involved, how far up in ranks the officers went and why it seemed to be swept under the rug by leadership, today they share what they found in the investigation file of one officer and what they think it says about the department as a whole, as well as those with the power to fix the problems.

First, they take you inside the April 21 Horry County Council meeting, where former officer Kevin Suggs and Jennifer Spivey Foley asked council members to return law enforcement authority to a sheriff who answers to voters — and where Chairman Johnny Gardner compared a historically corrupt police department to… litter on Highway 501…? Then (21:00), they unpack the bombshell Harris County prosecutors dropped in the Christa Bauer Gilley case: alleged affairs, an alleged Reddit post seeking a college-age M4F, DDF, FWB hookup, alleged plans to flee to Mexico, alleged homophobic slurs hurled at his own child, and a chilling theory from prosecutors that Lee Gilley may have tried to poison Christa months before her death. Christa’s medical and autopsy records may be the key to everything at the June trial and we plan to be there exposing all we can to sunlight.

TSP #145 [Part One] - Does Mica’s Law Stand a Chance in the Hands of South Carolina’s Male Lawmakers? 23.04.2026 1hInvestigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell are hopeful that South Carolina will pass a law criminalizing coercive control abuse … eventually … maybe. Ugh. After the tragic death of Mica Francis in April 2024, we all got a crash course in the horrors of coercive control abuse because of what Mica’s estranged “Pastor” JP Miller is accused of doing to her during the final 18 months of her life. Mica repeatedly sought help from the Horry County and Myrtle Beach Police Departments in JP’s alleged stalking and harassment of her, but over and again the police told her there was nothing they could do. In the meantime, three coercive control bills continued to languish in the General Assembly, which is almost 90 percent men. Last week a hearing was held in subcommittee to discuss the latest iteration of the bill, dubbed Mica’s Law. Liz and Mandy talk about how that went and what they think will happen next. Needless to say, South Carolina’s women should be angry … again.

TSP #144 - Mandy Faces Cruel Courtroom Ambush by Billionaire Greg Parker’s Legal Team in Conspiracy Case 16.04.2026 1h 15minLast week, investigative journalist Mandy Matney showed up in Cherokee County Courthouse in Gaffney, South Carolina, for a hearing related to her request that her deposition in the Mallory Beach civil conspiracy case be held in the offices of her lawyers or Beaufort County Courthouse — somewhere secure. But when the hearing began, the attorneys of billionaire gas station owner Greg Parker — who is a defendant in the case — AMBUSHED Mandy, a non-party in the case. Instead of the court hearing arguments in favor of each side’s motions, Debbie Barbier immediately called Mandy to the stand in a highly unusual and confusing move that was clearly meant to intimidate, silence and berate a journalist whose opinions Greg Parker doesn’t like. Debbie, by the way, is not only one of Greg Parker’s many attorneys in this case but also the attorney for Alex Murdaugh co-conspirator Cory Fleming. Interesting how that came around, right? On today's episode, investigative journalist (and Mandy’s co-host of True Sunlight) Liz Farrell gives a rundown of what happened in the courtroom and shares her thoughts about Debbie’s invasive and dishonest questioning of Mandy and Greg Parker’s continued retaliatory use of the court system, which … South Carolina just allows it, if you’re rich enough.

Premium Preview: Girl Talk (Liz & Mandy's Version) - Two Beers? One Pharmacologist. Zero Relevance! Lets Learn About Steroids 09.04.2026 42minA lot happened in the last three days and we are immensely grateful for the support we have received. We are alive. We are safe... But we are not ready to talk about what happened in court yet… so we're going to bring some joy back into the mix... Today we're sharing joy from the "Girl Talk" (Liz & Mandy's Version) archives usually only available on LUNASHARK Premium as a 'Soak Up The Sun' Member. In this mashup from GT 37 then GT 36 our dynamic duo revisits their March 8th deep dive into the Spivey immunity hearing — including a hilarious breakdown of the defense's star pharmacologist, a.k.a. "Dr. Bird Brain," whose courtroom debut was as baffling as his THC-and-songbird research. Then, from February 12th, Mandy and Liz take stock of the national news overload, confess to their reality TV escapes (Suddenly Amish, anyone?), and weigh in on the possibility of a new Murdaugh trial.

TSP #143 - Thrice-Accused Rapist Bowen Turner Getting Out of Prison AGAIN + Recording Reveals HCPD Disrespect for Spivey Family 02.04.2026 56minOn today's episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell share updates in their ongoing caseload, including the John-Paul Miller trial, the latest on thrice-accused rapist Bowen Turner, Bradley Williams’ attempt at getting the judge to change his mind on Stand Your Ground immunity and Horry County Police Department’s horrible treatment of Scott Spivey’s family. Nearly two years to the date of Mica Francis’ strange death in a remote North Carolina swamp, her estranged husband — now remarried to his former mistress — is expected to be in federal court where his trial is set to begin with jury selection on April 21 for a cyberstalking charge related to Mica’s death. Also today’s episode marks True Sunlight’s annual “Bowen Turner is getting released from prison again (again again AGAIN)” update. Will this time stick? Plus Scott Spivey co-killer Bradley Williams shifts his argument slightly while standing firmly in Weldon’s footprints as he once again seeks the court’s sympathy as “Weldon’s passenger.” And finally, recordings of Horry County Police Detective Alan Jones show the level of contempt he had for the Spivey family as they sought answers in Scott’s death.

TSP #142 - Fair Is Fair: A Tail of Two Greg(g)s, a Trail of Dead-End Excuses and The Deposition Double Standard in the Beach v. Parker Case 26.03.2026 1h 22minNew motions have been filed in the Mallory Beach civil conspiracy case — and they expose a glaring double standard that should make everyone pay attention. Gregg Roman, the man directly linked to confidential photos of Mallory Beach's body ending up in a documentary sizzle reel, is fighting tooth and nail to avoid a deposition — claiming journalist privilege, Israeli AND Philadelphia residency, and even a potential Israeli military obligation? Greg Parker's attorneys have been paid royally from Parker’s fried chicken sales, dragging Mandy and Liz through costly legal battles over depositions they never should have faced — and denied them the same accommodations offered to this "Middle East Policy Expert" at the center of the civil conspiracy allegations. On today's episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell break down who Gregg Roman really is, his paid connection to Greg Parker, and why the South Carolina Supreme Court now holds the key to the simplest question in this case: Who gave Gregg Roman those photos? Note: A federal jury ruled against Roman’s accuser on her Title VII and Pennsylvania Human Relations Act claims, specifically finding she had not been subjected to sexual harassment by Roman. It also rejected Roman’s abuse-of-process counterclaim.

TSP #141 - Charity Beallis’ Best Friend Speaks Out + Weldon Boyd’s Witness Gets Arrested 19.03.2026 1h 20minInvestigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell continue their coverage of the Charity Beallis case with a look at what divorce court records say about her marriage and life with Dr. Randy Beallis. Charity was found dead by gunshot along with her 6–year-old twins just one day after her final divorce hearing on Dec. 3, 2025, in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Based on the hearing transcript Mandy and Liz share their opinions about what was going on in Charity’s relationship with Randy. Also on the show, Charity’s lifelong best friend Kayla talks about who Charity was as a friend, a mom and a woman struggling in an allegedly controlling relationship — as well as Charity’s surviving son’s search for a legal team to help with his mom’s investigation (and potentially pursue legal action). As the Sebastian County Sheriff’s Office and prosecutor’s office continue to operate in the dark, Charity’s son, John Powell, is taking on the fight to get justice for his mother and his siblings.

TSP #140 - Charity Beallis Was Shot Twice, Sources Say. Did She Really Die By Suicide As Police Claim? 12.03.2026 1h 18minWhy did police in Arkansas lie about Charity Beallis’ final divorce hearing in their latest press release in the case? After the Sebastian County Sheriffs Office released a strange statement indicating that Charity died by suicide and her 6-year-old twins died by homicide, investigative Journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell dug into the records to find out exactly what happened in that hearing hours before Charity and her children died. Sources say that Charity was shot twice on the evening of Dec. 2 in Bonanza, Arkansas. A new investigation reveals turmoil between the sheriff’s office and Charity before the murders and connections that make us suspicious of corruption. While a police press release attempts to absolve Randy Beallis from the crime — which he has never been named a suspect of and says he was not responsible for the deaths of his family members — we still have questions.

TSP #139 - New ‘Becky Files’ Reveal Shocking Media Misconduct in Murdaugh Trial 05.03.2026 1h 18minInvestigative Journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell finally have the full SLED investigation file on former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill — and it's worse than anyone imagined. Becky quietly pleaded guilty in December to misconduct, obstruction, and perjury in exchange for community service and probation. Now, Mandy and Liz comb over 113-pages of newly FOIA'd "Becky Files" that expose a pattern of shameless self-dealing— all while Becky allegedly declared, "I'm the Damn Clerk of Court, I do what I want." SLED's investigation files show how Becky allegedly hosted an after-hours “sealed evidence jamboree” inside the courthouse during the Murdaugh trial and allowed fitsnews’ Will Folks, to photograph sealed crime scene exhibits in what Folks described as a virtual assembly line. These photos were later distributed by fits’ employee Jenn Wood. Actions have consequences… and apparently someone forgot to tell South Carolina.
