[Part Two of Two]

In Part Two, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell break down exactly how Parker's attorneys weaponized a judge's old-fashioned notions of what a scared woman looks like — and why South Carolina's appointed judiciary has no reason to care what you think about it… Demand better!

Attorneys for a billionaire gas station owner allegedly billed $310,000 (allegedly because the invoices are secret) — the cost of approximately two murder defenses — in secret billings – to punish a journalist for wanting to feel safe at her own deposition. A deposition that was attempted in March and happened in April.

Judge R. Keith Kelly obliged them, ordering Mandy to pay $171,500 in attorneys fees and a $5,000 fine to coerce a deposition that already happened back in April. We believe that Mandy’s constitutional rights were violated and it makes us worry for all of us.

The contempt charge brought by attorneys who represented Alex Murdaugh's convicted co-conspirators and decided by the same judge who lets Gregg Roman continue to dodge his deposition… the lesson is clear: EVADE SERVICE at all costs and skate free. Cooperate to your best ability: and they’ll ruin your life in return.
