COJ #117 - The Power of Pettiness, Diss Tracks and Why Russell Laffitte Is Now a Double-’Doofus’

  • Summary

  • Get ready for a jam-packed episode where we dive deep into the ridiculous, the infuriating, and the downright fascinating! This week, we're covering it all, from the bizarre energy of the Super Bowl to the petty world of legal filings and everything in between. Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell, and attorney Eric Bland — talk about the latest filing from Alex Murdaugh’s twice-alleged co-conspirator Russell Laffitte as he seeks a jury pool that goes beyond the Lowcountry. Turns out the big doofus doesn’t like being called a “doofus” … or a “cockroach.” At least not by Mandy and Liz. Russell’s attorney Mark Moore finally got the opportunity to flex his petty muscle as he unloaded years of pent-up rage into what Eric says might be a $25,000 motion — once you account for all the time Team Doofus spent listening to Cup of Justice and True Sunlight podcast and scrolling through Mandy’s, Liz’s and Eric’s social media. But the last laugh is — as always — on Team Doofus. There is no bigger compliment to pay than seeing your jokes about the Murdaugh villains appear in a federal court filing. Also on the show, the latest in JP Miller’s frivolous lawsuit scheme. ☕ Cup's Up! ⚖️ Episode Resources Serena Williams’ Instagram Post about Super Bowl Halftime Show “Taylor Swift ‘feels used’ by Blake Lively, wishes actress didn’t drag her into Justin Baldoni lawsuit” - Page Six, Feb 6, 2025 “Drake & Kendrick Lamar’s Rocky Relationship Explained” - Billboard, Feb 10, 2025 Russell TV Episodes Mandy’s Doofus Tweet - Nov 14, 2024 Liz’s Cockroach Tweet - Aug 11, 2023 “Alleged Murdaugh accomplice Laffitte requests statewide jury selection or change of venue” - Greenville News, Feb 5, 2025 “Former Myrtle Beach lawyer Brunty pleads guilty to conspiracy charge” - The Island Packet, June 16, 2014 Beth Braden’s FB Post about JP Miller’s Magistrate Court Lawsuits - Jan 31, 2025 Premium Resources Russell Laffitte’s Motion for District-Wide Jury Panel - Feb 3, 2025 Sam Rickman’s Counterclaim - Jan 27, 2025 Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Premium Members also get access to episode videos, case files, live trial coverage and exclusive live experiences with our hosts.
