But he's also dropped specific claims that suggest he knows more than he's saying. He told this show that the Murdaugh family may have known something about Stephen's death. He's hinted at relationships Stephen may have had with someone powerful. And he's been pressing SLED for information about what triggered the reopening of the case during the Murdaugh murder investigation. On Hidden Killers Live, Bland goes further than he has anywhere else. He addresses the sealed autopsy, the Buster Murdaugh defamation settlement with Warner Bros., and whether SLED is waiting for the retrial to play out before making a move on Stephen's case. He also answers the question Sandy Smith has been living with for more than a decade — whether any mechanism exists for her to access new evidence or testimony that the retrial process might produce. This isn't a recap of what's publicly known about Stephen Smith. This is the family's attorney assessing whether the Murdaugh retrial opens a door that's been closed for eleven years — and whether anyone on the other side is willing to walk through it.
