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 #118 - ‘Squires-Gate’ Children at Gunpoint: Teen Victims & the Sheriff’s Posse Gone Wild

    TSP #118 - ‘Squires-Gate’ Children at Gunpoint: Teen Victims & the Sheriff’s Posse Gone Wild
    Oct 2 2025
    Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell shine a light on the viral incident now known as Squires-Gate where kids were held at gunpoint by a cop on Hilton Head Island When off-duty Beaufort County Sheriff’s Deputy Billy Squires pulled a gun on a group of teens and dragged them across the street, uproar led to silence from officials. Sheriff P.J. Tanner has not addressed the misconduct, and the system seemed more interested in protecting its own than protecting children. Mandy and Liz walk listeners through the chilling footage, the sheriff’s troubling response, and the tangled web of “good ole boy” networks that have kept the Lowcountry under the grip of unchecked power for decades. But beyond the headlines and hashtags, this episode centers the victims — the terrified teenagers whose trauma has been met with indifference by those sworn to serve and protect. Plus a little update from Horry County on (38:58) Weldon Boyd....

  • TSP #117 - Weldon Boyd’s ‘Celebration Call’ to His Co-Shooter in Spivey Case Reveals a Whole Lot + South Carolina Men Push Bill To Control Women

    TSP #117 - Weldon Boyd’s ‘Celebration Call’ to His Co-Shooter in Spivey Case Reveals a Whole Lot + South Carolina Men Push Bill To Control Women
    Sep 25 2025
    Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell dissect newly uncovered evidence in the Scott Spivey case—a disturbing “celebration call” between Weldon Boyd and his co-shooter Bradley Williams that raises serious questions about the investigation and South Carolina’s justice system. Mandy and Liz expose the shocking phone call that reveals just how far Boyd—and the good ol' boys—will go to twist the truth and pervert the justice system to protect one of their own. Mandy also shares horrifying details of SC Senate Bill 323, a dangerous proposal that threatens women’s health and safety under the guise of “protection.” This is not just about a highly contentious politically dividing issue—it’s truly about how corruption and unchecked power continue to endanger lives in South Carolina. Corruption, coverups, and cruelty—welcome to South Carolina’s good ol’ boy playbook. But there is hope… This episode is a call to action: for Scott, for women, and for every victim failed by the system.

Lots of great info. Rooted in keeping the drama rational while acknowledging the potential for it to go all wrong.

Keeping it all based on Facts

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.

Most informative

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

Exceptional but ads brought down rating

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!!!

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.

Very Interesting
