COJ #110 - Cups Up from Hollywood! + Alex Murdaugh’s Long List of Grievances + Cory Fleming’s First Prison Photo Is Out
Live from Hollywood! This week attorney Eric Bland asks investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell about their visit to to 'La La Land' and the writers’ room of Hulu’s upcoming scripted series based on the Murdaugh Murders Podcast.  As always, there was a lot to talk about (including Eric’s connection to the Luigi Mangione case?!). Last week, Alex Murdaugh filed a 132-page initial brief for his consolidated appeal in front of the South Carolina Supreme Court and … it’s A LOT. Team Murdaugh went full Team Misdirection and added a number of new grievances while leaving out a lot of old context (no surprise there). Mandy, Liz and Eric talk about Alex’s chances at getting a new trial and what his latest strategy seems to be. Also on the show, the first prison photo of Cory Fleming has emerged and, let’s just say, Hot Summer Cory is officially over. Accountability is coming in all forms…  🥽 Let's Dive In... 🦈 Premium Members also get access to episode videos, case files, live trial coverage and exclusive live experiences with our hosts.

COJ #109: Four More Trials For Alex Murdaugh’s Banker Buddy? + What Shook Us About The CEO Assassin Suspect

COJ #109: Four More Trials For Alex Murdaugh’s Banker Buddy? + What Shook Us About The CEO Assassin Suspect
Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — and attorney Eric Bland — discuss the first post-prison court appearance of Alex Murdaugh’s alleged co-conspirator Russell Laffitte. On Monday, Russell was looking like a different and defeated man when his whiny attorneys — Mark Moore and state Rep. Todd Rutherford — tried to postpone his state court date to “Never” and asked the court to unfreeze his $10 million to $12 million (!) fortune so they can get paid.  The biggest news to come out of the courtroom Monday was that Russell could end up having THREE state trials, in addition to his federal one.  Also on the show, Mandy, Liz and Eric talk about the arrest of Luigi Mangione — aka the alleged “CEO Assassin” — and his unlikely (and questionable) rise to folk hero. The murder of UnitedHealth CEO Brian Thompson has led to a cultural shift, where people took to social media to share their horror stories with health insurance companies. Will that conversation stop now that an arrest has been made? 🥽 Let's Dive In... 🦈 Episode Resources Eric Bland's New Book!!! Mandy's Book in Paperback!!

COJ #108 - 'Tis The Season For True Crime Grifting? How the Jamie Lee Komoroski Reminded Us Of Murdaugh + Eric Bland’s New Book
In light of how a TikTok creator posts a video admitting she spent every penny she raised in the name of helping Mica Francis’ family on booze and her mortgage... investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — and attorney Eric Bland talk about how the laws need to change to hold people accountable for this type of true crime fraud and how to protect yourself from getting scammed in these seemingly well-meaning fundraisers for victims of crime. We also talk about the release of Eric’s new book, “Anything But Bland” and its reception on social media. Plus the Jamie Lee Komoroski case goes to trial this week in Charleston County. Jamie Lee is accused of driving at three times the legal limit for alcohol — while going 65 mph in a 25 mph zone — and crashing into a golf cart carrying a couple coming back from their wedding reception in 2023.  At the end of the episode, EB walks us through selected segments of his book.
