• TSP #111 - A New Trial for Alex Murdaugh? Good Luck with That! + Worst Is Yet to Come for Weldon Boyd’s Co-Shooter

  Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell were pleasantly surprised last week to find out how much power the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office’s packed with its punch back to Alex Murdaugh and his increasingly embarrassing attempts at getting his murder conviction overturned.  Six attorneys at the AG’s office — including Creighton “BCE” Waters himself — compiled a nearly flawless 182-page response to Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffith’s arguments in favor of an appeal. Let’s just say, BCE and Co. ate and left no crumbs.🍪 But! It's high time for SC Attorney General Alan Wilson to start focusing on getting justice in other cases … like Alex’s unindicted co-conspirators, bringing the Michael Colucci case in front of the grand jury again and re-examining the need for criminal charges in Scott Spivey’s killing.  PLUS (27:46) we continue our look into North Myrtle Beach businessman Weldon Boyd’s co-shooter Bradley Williams and things aren’t looking good for him...Let’s dive in! 🥽🦈Episode References Therapist Alexandra Armas Tuck’s Website 🌐 Sunlight on Scott Spivey Spotify Playlist 🎧 Horry County Officer Writes “ACT LIKE A VICTIM - CAMERA” on Note to Homicide Suspects 🎞️ Premium ResourcesAlex Murdaugh’s Initial Brief of Appellant - Dec 10, 2024 📄 State of SC’s Initial Brief of Respondent - Aug 8, 2025 📄 Justice Toal’s Order Denying Alex Murdaugh a New Trial - April 4, 2024 📄 Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Learn more about Premium Membership at ⁠⁠⁠⁠lunashark.supercast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ to get bonus episodes like our Premium Dives, Corruption Watchlist, Girl Talk, and Soundbites that help you Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight ⁠⁠⁠⁠Premium Members ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠also get access to ad-free listening, searchable case files, written articles with documents, case photos, episode videos and exclusive live experiences with our hosts on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠lunasharkmedia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ all in one place. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to learn more: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

• TSP #110 - Did Months-Long Obsession Have Weldon Boyd Primed for a Fight the Day He Killed Scott Spivey?

  Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell continue to connect the dots in the Scott Spivey shooting case as they impatiently wait for South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster to appoint a special prosecutor to revisit what has turned out to be one of the most corrupt police investigations in state history.  On this week’s episode: Did shooter Weldon Boyd’s months-long obsession over his ex-fiancé have him in a fighting-mood on the day he and his friend Bradley Williams killed Scott? In SLED’s download of Bradley’s phone there were 60 screenshots of text messages between Weldon and the mother and grandmother of his son, showing Weldon’s increasing anger over his inability to control and manipulate his former fiancé. Those messages, along with court records, recorded phone calls and social media posts reveal that Weldon wasn’t just momentarily upset about his broken engagement the afternoon of Sept. 9, 2023, when he encountered Scott on Highway 9 in Horry County…   Mandy and Liz share their new timeline on Weldon’s potential state of mind as he tousled with Scott on the road, along with Weldon’s tactical messages, seemingly crafted to create a paper trail for the narrative he wanted everyone around him to believe.  Let’s dive in! 🥽🦈 Episode References Statement from the Office of South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson on the shooting of Scott Spivey - Aug 6, 2025 📄 SC’s Stand Your Ground and Citizen's Arrest laws (Circumstances when any person may arrest a felon or thief.) 🌐 SC Attorney General Alan Wilson says he is prepared to lead as governor 📰 Alan Wilson for Governor Campaign Website 🌐 Premium Resources AG Office’s Letter to SLED - April 3, 2024 📄 Spivey, Scott – 2023, Sept 09 – Horry County PD Shooting CAD Report📄 Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Learn more about Premium Membership at ⁠⁠⁠lunashark.supercast.com⁠⁠⁠ to get bonus episodes like our Premium Dives, Corruption Watchlist, Girl Talk, and Soundbites that help you Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight ⁠⁠⁠Premium Members ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠also get access to ad-free listening, searchable case files, written articles with documents, case photos, episode videos and exclusive live experiences with our hosts on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠lunasharkmedia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ all in one place. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to learn more: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

• TSP #109 - Did Weldon Boyd Record Video of Scott Spivey Shooting? + SC Attorney General Alan Wilson Has a Reason to Keep People Afraid…

  Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell share part three of their look into how the family of Scott Spivey was treated by the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office. In April 2024, Prosecutor Heather Weiss  tried to explain why she felt there was “insufficient evidence” to charge North Myrtle Beach man Weldon Boyd and his friend Bradley Williams in Scott’s shooting death.  Why would Heather Weiss’ boss, Attorney General Alan Wilson, want to open the door to all-out vigilantism in South Carolina? Why would he want it to be legal for people to chase each other with guns and just be able to say the dead man started it with no meaningful investigation into that claim? Oh right. His brother Julian Wilson co-owns the private equity firm JJE Capital Holdings which owns the state’s biggest weapons and ammunition retailer: Palmetto State Armory. How else can you explain why Alan’s office continues to sit on their hands and do NOTHING when it comes to taking another look into the appropriateness of criminal charges against Weldon and Bradley?  Also on the show, did Weldon Boyd … record a video of himself killing Scott Spivey? At that April 2024 meeting with prosecutor Heather Weiss, Scott’s family asked her if she was aware of this video. Surprise, surprise she wasn’t. And SLED Agent Nathan Poston assured the family that no such video existed … We are guessing he didn’t look at the evidence either.  Let’s dive in! 🥽🦈 Episode References “Man identified as Murdaugh drug dealer sentenced after guilty pleas”- Live5 News, July 28, 2025 📰 “AR rifle used in Trump shooting from company with winding history, campaign visit” - USA Today, July 16, 2024 📰 "Gunman Shane Tamura used Palmetto State Armory AR-15 in massacre at Midtown skyscraper" - New York Post, Updated July 29, 2025 📰 Alan Wilson for Governor Campaign Website 🌐 “North Myrtle Beach warns planner as St. Patrick’s Day pub crawl ‘escalated to a parade’” - The Myrtle Beach Sun News, February 24, 2021 📰 Referenced Episode: MMP 60 🎧 Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about Premium Membership at ⁠⁠lunashark.supercast.com⁠⁠ to get more Premium bonus episodes like the Corruption Watchlist, Girl Talk, and Soundbites that help you Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight ⁠⁠Premium Members ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠also get access to ad-free listening, searchable case files, written articles with documents, case photos, episode videos and exclusive live experiences with our hosts on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠lunasharkmedia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ all in one place. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to learn more: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

• TSP #108 - Clocking That Tea: Unmasking the Spivey Case Lies Told By The Attorney General’s Office

  Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell can’t wrap their heads around the patchwork logic behind the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office’s decision not to file charges against North Myrtle Beach businessman Weldon Boyd and his friend, Bradley Williams — the two men responsible for killing 33-year-old Scott Spivey in September 2023. And there’s a reason why Mandy and Liz can’t grasp it … it’s because the so-called logic is absurd.  In April 2024, assistant attorney general Heather Weiss met with Scott’s family — including his mother, Deborah, and his sister, Jennifer Spivey Foley — to explain her reasoning in deciding against pursuing a criminal case against Weldon and Bradley.  The meeting exposed just how little Heather Weiss understood the case — specifically the evidence that she appears not to have taken a look at…In today’s episode, Mandy and Liz take a closer look at what went down at that meeting and why the Attorney General’s Office seemed to do its very best to find a nice and soft landing spot for Weldon and his friend.  Let’s dive in! 🥽🦈 Episode References “Hampton Co. community walks to bring awareness to Stephen Smith cold case, searches for answers” - WTOC, July 12, 2025 📰 “Attorneys discuss admissible evidence, testimony ahead of Camp Swamp Road shooting hearing” - ABC4 News, July 10, 2025 📰 Sunlight on Scott Spivey Spotify Playlist 🎧 Citizen’s Guide to FOIA - South Carolina Press Association ℹ️ “Gun Ownership in America” - RAND Corp ℹ️ South Carolina’s Code of Laws: Citizen’s Arrest and Protection of Persons and Property Act (Stand Your Ground/Castle Doctrine) ⚖️ Referenced Episodes: TSP ⁠102⁠ & ⁠106⁠ 🎧 Premium Resources Order for Independent Exam of Biological Samples - July 15, 2025⁠ 📄 ⁠AG Office’s letter to SLED declining to prosecute Weldon Boyd - April 3, 2024⁠ 📄 ⁠Jimmy Richardson’s Letter to AG Office - Sept 15, 2023⁠ 📄 ⁠Case Law around “Stand Your Ground”⁠ ⚖️ Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about Premium Membership at ⁠lunashark.supercast.com⁠ to get more Premium bonus episodes like the Corruption Watchlist, Girl Talk, and Soundbites that help you Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight ⁠Premium Members ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠also get access to ad-free listening, searchable case files, written articles with documents, case photos, episode videos and exclusive live experiences with our hosts on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠lunasharkmedia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ all in one place. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to learn more: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
