What do those depositions say? Has he shared them with SLED?

In this powerful and eye-opening episode of Cup of Justice, journalist Mandy Matney and attorney Eric Bland sit down with Darryl Burton, a man who was wrongfully convicted of murder and spent almost a lifetime – – in prison before finally being exonerated. Darryl shares his harrowing journey from a young man in inner-city St. Louis to facing a capital murder charge despite having a strong alibi – he was across the country in Washington state at the time of the crime. Darryl recounts the shocking details of his trial, including the ineffective assistance of his public defender and the devastating impact of jailhouse snitch witnesses who were incentivized by the prosecution to allegedly lie under oath. Darryl vividly describes the brutal realities of life inside the infamous Missouri State Penitentiary, once described as the "bloodiest 47 acres in America", and how he maintained hope despite the overwhelming odds and a prison environment that encouraged despair. Learn about his relentless fight for freedom, including writing hundreds of letters seeking help, and his eventual connection with Centurion Ministries , the organization that finally took on his case and fought for his exoneration. Today, Darryl is a co-founder of Miracle of Innocence , an organization dedicated to helping other wrongfully convicted individuals. He shares his powerful insights into the flaws of the justice system, particularly the dangers of snitch testimony and the vast disparity in resources between prosecution and defense. Learn more about Darryl's story in his book, " Innocent: A Second Look ," available at TheDarrylBurton.com and MiracleMan.net, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting Miracle of Innocence.

South Carolina’s thrice-accused rapist — and the crowned prince of trying to buy his way out of accountability — is once again being accused of violating the terms of parole … and breaking yet another promise to a justice system that continues to reward him with just one more chance. How many more times will we all be forced to talk about Bowen? When will there be accountability for those who gave him the sweetheart plea deal?

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.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell sat down with Mica Francis’ divorce attorney Regina Ward of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, to talk about Mica’s case and the dozens of lawsuits JP Miller has now filed against protesters and content creators. In the interview, Regina talked about Mica’s request for a restraining order against JP and why it was dismissed — PLUS she revealed that at the time of Mica’s death Mica was awaiting her second restraining order hearing to stop JP from allegedly harassing and stalking her. Also on the show, Regina discussed her newest case … representing former Solid Rock Ministries church member Sam Rickman in his countersuit against JP. Last week, Regina filed an EXPLOSIVE response to one of the dozens of lawsuits now filed by JP and his cohorts. In his typical chaotic way, JP Miller has opened a Pandora’s Box and he’s not going to like what awaits him in court… Premium Members get additional discussions on the inadequate support for domestic violence victims in Horry County, South Carolina, highlighting the defunct Casa organization and the insufficient funding for a new shelter despite abundant resources allocated elsewhere. We'll also pivot to the legal strategies deployed by Regina in Rickman's defense and counterclaim, specifically in magistrate court, to challenge the pastor's claims of financial damages and the questionable evidence presented. Regina is bringing a full bore legal battle exposing the pastor's potentially frivolous lawsuits, emphasizing the importance of proper evidence and procedure within the legal system...

After Myrtle Beach Pastor JP Miller files more than a dozen complaints against protesters and creators seeking Justice for Mica, we were left scratching our heads but not at all surprised. What is JP up to and why did he choose Magistrate Court, where the most damages he could win tops out at $7,500? How can the protesters/creators defend themselves? And will Judge Christopher John Arakas — who isn’t a member of the South Carolina Bar Association and doesn’t appear to have ever been a lawyer — be fooled by JP’s claims?

Just over a year ago, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell from “ True Sunlight Podcast ,” watched the hit Netflix documentary “American Nightmare” about Denise Huskins and Aaron Quinn, the California couple who were immediately dubbed “LIARS” by police — and the media — after reporting a home invasion and the subsequent kidnapping and rape of Denise in 2015. Mandy and Liz were blown away by the documentary, and especially by the work of a woman named Misty Carausu . After months of being scolded and vilified in the headlines — which affected their careers and relationships — Denise and Aaron found vindication in the form of Misty, who at the time was a brand new criminal investigator from a police agency 40 miles south of where they lived. Misty wowed audiences of “American Nightmare” with her tenacity and devotion to her job. And she showed what can happen when police come from a place of BELIEVING victims instead of treating victims like suspects. After helping investigate a home invasion in her jurisdiction, Misty discovered a connection between the suspect in her case and Denise and Aaron’s case, proving that Denise and Aaron were telling the truth all along. Today, we're diving deeper to discover more beneath the surface of this harrowing story and how we can inspire more women like Misty to Protect and Serve. 🥽 Let's Dive In... 🦈 Find More From Misty Here: instagram.com/misty_carausu Real Crime Profile: Victim F Part 8 - Sergeant Misty Carausu Episode Resources Lt.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland talk about the horrors of the Los Angeles wildfires and how Big Insurance, as well as systemic failures in government preparation have made a catastrophic situation even worse. Closer to home, the three talk about the success of Luna Shark's billboard blitz in the hopes of seeking answers in the Stephen Smith case (not to mention Sandy Smith’s decision to increase the reward to $50,000 for information leading to arrests in her son’s murder case). Also on the show, a federal jury found Cory Fleming liable for his part in Alex Murdaugh’s scheme to steal millions from Gloria Satterfield’s family, but is HE the biggest loser to emerge from the Nautilus trial? Or did the insurance company waste untold amounts of time and money in launching an easily predictable losing battle over something that may ultimately be their own fault? Plus, the latest in the Mica Francis case: Emails and texts show that JP MIller — and his right hand woman Tricia Ross — accused an Horry County Police Department officer of being at fault for Mica’s death.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — and attorney Eric Bland — are BACK and ready to take on the New Year. This 112th episode of COJ covers a range of topics, starting with a look back at the holidays. Premium members get a special discussion on Liz's snow day adventures, Mandy's aversion to winter, and Eric's past commuting woes in Philadelphia…and we’ll touch on the dangers of public transportation in New York. This week Alex Murdaugh’s best friend and co-conspirator Cory Fleming is back in federal court for the Nautilus case … but why? What defense could he possibly offer the insurance company that says Alex and Cory swindled them out of $3.8 million in the Satterfield scheme? Last week, Alex ended Nautilus’ claim against him with a confession of judgment worth $14.8 million … meaning, things could get really bad for Cory. And yet he’s still going for it. We also delve into the confusing aspects of the case, such as the role of the insurance companies and their handling of the initial claim and the potential for other co-conspirators to be revealed, especially if Cory Fleming or Alex Murdaugh provides testimony. Finally, the hosts shift gears to discuss the controversy surrounding Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, including Lively's initial complaint and Baldoni's defamation lawsuit. We’ll dive into where the three land on who “the bad guy” is here. Plus, Sandy Smith plans to increase the reward in the search for her son’s killers as more people take notice of the Stephen Smith billboards that LUNASHARK has funded throughout South Carolina.
