Summary

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell are back and we begin today’s episode revisiting (01:02) how Scott Spivey was shot to death in his vehicle by Weldon Boyd and Bradley Williams in September 2023. A significant development comes in the form of a "legal filing", an "absurd 9-page motion to stay" by Bradley Williams' attorney, Robert E. Lee… yup, that’s the name he prefers… We’ll also share a disturbing, but pertinent call between Weldon and his granny discussing the incident. Then (23:00) we share updates on the 'updated' sentence of suspended Hilton Head Island attorney Peter Strauss, the as-yet-unscheduled sentencing for Russell Laffitte, Michael Colucci’s retrial scheduled for June 16th and Lee Gilley’s Houston status hearing on June 4th for his murder trial. As our primary focus, (25:06) Mandy and Liz critically examine the 2025 Horry County Police investigation into the 2021 death of Chris Skinner, husband of JP Miller's alleged mistress, highlighting discrepancies between the official ruling of accidental death and video evidence suggesting something else. We’ll share police interviews with Chris Skinner's friends, noting the friend's belief the death was a suicide possibly influenced by JP Miller, and questioning the wife's inconsistent statements and demeanor. Ultimately, we are advocating for truth and justice in all these cases. Lots to cover, so let's dive in... 🥽🦈 Thank you to the Hampton County Building & Planning Department and Hampton County Sheriff Anthony Russell for helping us with the July 12th “Walking with Stephen” Event 💚 Walk Registration is Live Soon!

0:00.0	I don't know what is going on with J.P. Miller's girlfriend, Susie Skinner. But after reviewing
0:09.2	the recent investigation files re-examining her husband Chris Skinner's 23 death, I think someone is
0:17.5	hiding something. And we know, now more than ever, that we cannot rely on local
0:23.6	police to figure out what that is. My name is Mandy Matney. This is True Sunlight, a podcast
0:35.3	exposing crime and corruption, previously known as the Murdoch Murders podcast. True Sunlight, a podcast exposing crime and corruption, previously known as the Murdoch
0:39.4	murders podcast. True Sunlight is a Luna Shark production written with journalist Liz Farrell.
0:50.0	Hello, hello, and we are back, baby, with the 101st episode of True Sunlight Podcast.
0:56.6	We're feeling hydrated, rested, and ready to roll on the cases we have been covering.
1:02.0	Thankfully, and I mean this from the bottom of my soul, there were no major updates
1:07.5	while we were gone, and our team was allowed to truly detach and rest up for the
1:12.3	busy season ahead. There were a few updates in the Peter Strauss, Kaluci, J.P. Miller, and
1:18.8	Krista Bauer-Gilley cases, but I want to start with the Spivey case. As a reminder,
1:24.7	in September 2023, Scott Spivey was shot to death in his vehicle by Weldon Boyd and Bradley Williams following a road rage incident.
1:34.1	The sketchy, Ory County Police investigation claimed that the shooting was in self-defense, even after Boyd admitted to following Spivey for miles.
1:45.1	The case has quickly grown into a massive public safety issue in South Carolina,
1:51.5	as Sled the Attorney General's Office and the governors in action in the case
1:56.7	has sent a strong message that South Carolina is not a safe place for visitors.
2:03.5	Because apparently our leaders are cool with raging country boys following people for nine miles
2:09.7	and shooting them to death in the name of Stand Your Ground.
2:13.4	I'll say this again for the listeners.
2:15.8	ORI County is not a safe place to visit.
2:19.1	If you want to go somewhere where you feel protected by law enforcement, go somewhere else.
