Summary

Before the wedding this weekend, Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Eric Bland took a moment to discuss the big surprise that Russell Laffitte dropped on Palmetto State Bank last week — that he has recordings proving the bank’s board was aware of what he was doing. Does this mean Russell secretly suspected he was being set up as the fall guy? How many more recordings does he have? Could Russell Laffitte bring down his family’s bank in an effort to avoid prison time? We all want to drink from the same Cup of Justice — and it starts with learning about our legal system.

Happy Wednesday, MMP fans, and yes, it is wedding week for us, finally.

0:09.6

We are so excited and thankful for all of the kind words we've been getting from fans.

0:15.7

Because y'all have been on this journey with us for the past 15 months, and several of

you asked, we will be sending out a link to all sunscribers if you want to watch the

couple weeks, Liz, Eric and I got together to chat about the latest updates in this never

0:42.8

ending story that we've committed ourselves to covering. So here it goes.

Russell Lefeats Criminal Trial The first criminal trial in all of the Murdock cases

0:53.5

is just weeks away. And as we get closer to the November 7th date, things are getting

that Russell acted alone, particularly when he used the bank's money to pay PMPED

1:37.8

back for half of the $1.3 million that Eric allegedly stole from Arthur Badger. So just

1:45.6

when you think these cases couldn't get any more dramatic, here we are.

1:52.4

So if you're Russell, let's just put ourselves in his brain space for a second here. A bank

1:57.4

is an institution that takes money from other people and then lends it to...

2:02.7

No, they don't take money. They take custody and deposits and they're supposed to preserve
