Summary

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell have had enough with mainstream media. After a South Carolina judge dismissed Michael Colucci’s murder charge last week in the strangulation death of his wife in 2015, Mandy and Liz noticed a trend … members of the media seemed to be deviating from the facts of the case in favor of carefully coddling Michael by pushing his narrative for him. But for Sara-Lynn Colucci, they did no such thing. Instead they were careless with their words and grossly mischaracterized what her state of mind was in the weeks leading up to her death. After a special episode of Cup of Justice this week with Sara-Lynn’s daughter, Bishop Venters, in her first public interview, the mission became clear. Bishop is ready to fight for justice for her mom. And she’s going to need an army behind her to get S.C Attorney General Alan Wilson to focus on his job and present Michael’s case to the grand jury again for a reindictment. Also on today’s show, we found YET ANOTHER moment on Horry County Police Department body cameras where Weldon Boyd got help from an officer at the crime scene with Scott Spivey’s body sitting 30 yards away, shot to death by Weldon and his buddy Bradley Williams. We’re diving deep into assembling the timeline… Lots to cover so let’s dive in! 🥽🦈 Episode References “Walking With Stephen” Information and Registration Links 🎟️ JusticeforSaraLynn.com ⚖️ Alan Wilson’s Campaign Announcement on Facebook & Instagram📣 After His Murder Indictment Was Dismissed, Michael Colucci Chats With Dateline NBC Producer Carol Gable Dateline’s “True Crime Weekly” podcast episode 🎧 “SLED agent grilled at Murdaugh trial botches Michael Colucci murder case.
