Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell continue their in-depth, real-time reporting on the Scott Spivey shooting case (aka the Horry County Police Department public corruption case).
On this week’s episode: Was Heather Weisz from South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson’s office working as a prosecutor or Weldon Boyd and Bradley William’s free defense attorney?
Also on the show, the first part of True Sunlight’s deep dive into the so-called star witness for Weldon and Bradley. Other than Weldon, Witness No. 1 is the only other person who called 911 to report Scott for driving erratically and allegedly pointing a gun at people. Does Witness No. 1’s account hold up after looking at the evidence? Photos taken by the shooters, surveillance footage, Weldon’s recorded calls, body camera footage and a second by second breakdown of what happened on Camp Swamp Road tell a different story.
Plus! We’re sharing part of our Premium Dive on Jury Duty from LUNASHARK Librarian Kate Thomas. Kate’s episode is chock-full of info on why Jury Duty is so important, though flawed at times, and also features an interview with Jim and Meredith Bannon from the Bannon Law Group - our first advertisers and our besties.
