In this San Francisco investigative podcast episode, I dive into the snitch tapes and the suspet lineup,and discuss implications for the Gary Murphy case. The tapes are part of the case file from the June 12, 1998 murder of the ex-con biker. It's a rare true crime murder podcast. Police seemed to have overwhelming evidence against Murphy's enemy in a child custody case, the grandmother of Murphy's then 6-year-old daughter. Murphy had been winning in family law court against grandma at the time of his death. An informant arrested in a notrorious Piedmont home invasion rape told police that the grandmother had hired the hitman and the getaway driver through grandma's then boyfriend. The tapes in the San Francisco murder investigation reveal the desperation of the informant to try to get out of custody before giving police a more detailed statement. The two San Francisco detectives grilled the informant, the gunman, the driver, and grandma's boyfriend but they could not get a confesstion out of the suspects. Police would later lose the phone records and no one was ever arrested or charged with Murphy's murder.
