 Previously known as the Murdaugh Murders Podcast, True Sunlight is the intersection of True Crime, journalism and systematic corruption. Celebrated journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell are taking their style of reporting beyond Alex Murdaugh and his co-conspirators. We expose the truth wherever it leads giving voice to victims like Mica Francis, Sara Lynn Colucci, and Christa Gilley, while still pursuing justice for all the victims you've met so far like Stephen Smith, Dallas Stoller, and others. True Sunlight is the antithesis of True crime. True Sunlight values accuracy over "access journalism". True Sunlight is shed with empathy — not exploitation. True Sunlight was created as a matter of public service — not just entertainment. While the name of the podcast has changed, our mission, values and team have not. We are simply expanding our horizons while continuing to shine a much needed bright light on crime and corruption wherever it appears. Ranked #1 and #2 globally in 2021 and 2023 respectively as the Murdaugh Murders Podcast, True Sunlight provides unmatched insight into the crimes and criminals exposed on MMP and dives deep into new instances of where crime meets corruption across the US. We empower listeners to understand their legal and judicial systems through investigative journalism while providing tools to hold agencies and public figures accountable in order to change those systems for the better.

    TSP #103 - How Weldon Boyd Embedded His ‘Self-Defense’ Narrative with Police and Witnesses + 10 Things to Know about Michael Colucci's Retrial
    Jun 12 2025
    Is Michael Colucci finally going to trial for allegedly murdering Sara Lynn Colucci in 2015? Why does Weldon Boyd claim witnesses back up his story in the Scott Spivey shooting? Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell discuss two separate but related cases in South Carolina that highlight obvious systemic failures within the justice system. First, we focus on the upcoming retrial of Michael Colucci for the murder of his wife, Sara Lynn Moore Colucci, emphasizing red flags in his 911 call, his ‘gathering storm’ of financial and stress leading up to her death, and the volatile nature of their relationship. Then we examine the alleged wrongful death of Scott Spivey, critically analyzing Horry County Police Department's investigation, the inconsistencies in witness testimonies, and the actions of Weldon Boyd, exposing a potential cover-up and lack of thorough inquiry by authorities. What does it take to achieve greater transparency and accountability in South Carolina's legal processes, particularly in cases involving influential men…?

  • TSP #102 - Third Horry County Cop Caught on Video Helping Weldon Boyd at Shooting Scene + JP Miller Married Suzie Skinner

    TSP #102 - Third Horry County Cop Caught on Video Helping Weldon Boyd at Shooting Scene + JP Miller Married Suzie Skinner
    Jun 5 2025
    Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell encountered something new on the JP Miller beat over the past week and it might just be his villain origin story. Myrtle Beach churchy-business bro “Pastor” John-Paul Miller — who stands accused of stalking and harassing his estranged wife Mica Francis and allegedly contributing to her death in April 2024 — got married this past weekend to his rumored longtime paramour Suzie Skinner — the widow of a quadriplegic man who was found dead at the bottom of his community pool in September 2021 (two weeks after he allegedly told JP to stay away from his wife and kids). The beach wedding appeared to be hastily pulled together and none of their combined seven children were seen at the wedding, according to sources. The big question everyone has on their minds after Sunday’s nuptials: What are these two up to? Also on the show Mandy and Liz share more recordings in the Scott Spivey case (aka the Horry County Police Department corruption case). Turns out North Myrtle Beach businessman Weldon Boyd got even more help from police officers after he and his friend Bradley Williams shot and killed Scott on Sept. 9, 2023. LUNASHARK reporter and researcher Beth Braden discovered that about an hour after Scott was killed, HCPD Officer Kerry Higgs advised Weldon to stop talking because he might have to walk his story back later. Higgs told Weldon to wait for detectives to get to the scene because they would give him the timeline and chronology of events (presumably so Weldon could shape his narrative around it). Meanwhile a detective with HCPD — the one who interviewed the only witness to see what Scott did (didn’t do) in the very last moments of his life — filed a report mixing up the order of events in a way that only served to help corroborate Weldon’s account … directly contradicting the witness’ 911 call and his video interview. Plus, we'll give an update on surprising news out of Houston, TX connected to the (2:32) Christa Bauer Gilley case.

Excellent reporting and good delivery. She's not a voice actor or radio personality, but how many people are? I'm looking forward to more episodes.

I have never been a big listener of podcasts, but I am obsessed with the Murdaugh Murders Podcast. I read about the Murdaugh family in the news and found this podcast. Mandy Matney and her team go above and beyond tracking down accurate information and continue to hold officials’ feet to fire to tell the truth. Absolutely well done!!

Blown Away… Phenomenal!!!

I am from Pac NW and don't know the Southern ways of controlling and dispensing power. I thank you for filling in all the gaps in the story with important little details you glean from locals. Alex was angry with Paul because he was such a spoiled brat who looked to amount to nothing but a drunk bully and an embarrassment. Certainly not a silver-tongued lawyer, the only career worth a damn in that family.

This case is mind-blowing. William Faulkner couldn't have written a more intriguing Southern saga.

All I can say is wow!!! This team digs deep into the corruption of southern law and politics. I hope when this is over that SC leads the way in reforming the political climate throughout the south.

Excellent investigative Journalism

FitsNews as a source for the "truth." I have no words... Disgusting disrespectful fake news.

FitsNews? SC's equivalent of The National Enquirer
