Summary

Is Michael Colucci finally going to trial for allegedly murdering Sara Lynn Colucci in 2015? Why does Weldon Boyd claim witnesses back up his story in the Scott Spivey shooting? Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell discuss two separate but related cases in South Carolina that highlight obvious systemic failures within the justice system. First, we focus on the upcoming retrial of Michael Colucci for the murder of his wife, Sara Lynn Moore Colucci, emphasizing red flags in his 911 call, his ‘gathering storm’ of financial and stress leading up to her death, and the volatile nature of their relationship. Then we examine the alleged wrongful death of Scott Spivey, critically analyzing Horry County Police Department's investigation, the inconsistencies in witness testimonies, and the actions of Weldon Boyd, exposing a potential cover-up and lack of thorough inquiry by authorities. What does it take to achieve greater transparency and accountability in South Carolina's legal processes, particularly in cases involving influential men…?
