Summary
Attorney Eric Bland tells investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell why he is fired up — and for good reason. Eric discusses twelve ODC complaints from a convicted felon and a looming all-day interview about his conduct from Murdaugh-related complaints filed by Parkers attorneys and Dick Harpootlian… from as early as 2021! The team also takes a hard look at what the ODC actually is, who it protects, and who it's used against. Mandy breaks down why she's fighting her deposition subpoena in the Parker civil conspiracy case tooth and nail, what it means that Liz sat for eight hours and it still wasn't enough, and why Mandy may ultimately decide to sit — on her own terms. Then: a masterclass in fighting back from an unlikely source. Afroman's defamation trial win against Adams County, Ohio Sheriff's deputies teaches the crew about the Streisand Effect, probable cause, and the power of sunlight. ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References How to file a complaint with SC ODC 🌐 “A Convenience-Store Magnate, Teen Drinking and a Fatal Boat Crash: The Legal Case Shaking South Carolina” - WSJ, Aug 13, 2022 📰 “Jury gives verdict in Afroman trial” - WCPO 9, March 18, 2026 🎞️ Afroman’s Lemon Pound Cake (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) 🎞️ Streisand Effect - Brittanica 🌐 Follow Julie Grant to see where the road takes her next 📍 Premium Episode References Mandy's Motion to Quash Denied Order - Feb 5, 2026 📄 Mandy’s Motion to Reconsider Denied Order - March 16, 2026 📄 Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Premium Members also get access to all new bonus episodes, video episodes, case files, live trial coverage and exclusive live experiences with our hosts.
