## Resource

Investigative journalists ⁠⁠Mandy Matney⁠⁠ and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠⁠ and attorney Eric Bland analyze everything that went down when Mandy (and Eric) took the stand last week during the absurd contempt proceedings. Why did Parker's team show up with four partner-level attorneys, two binders, and zero affidavit? And why was Debbie Barbier demanding Luna Shark's private financials in open court — before any finding of contempt? Then... the Murdaugh retrial gets a no-nonsense new judge. Judge Debra McCaslin sets an April 5 trial date, shuts down the laptop request, and puts Dick Harpootlian on notice — continuances aren't on the menu. ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References Mandy’s reaction to her civil contempt hearing 🌐 Toyota of Florence, Inc. v.
