MMP Remastered #11 - Was Alex Murdaugh Actually Shot? Part One
from True Sunlight · host LUNASHARK
On the remastered 11th episode of the Murdaugh Murders Podcast, journalists Liz Farrell and Mandy Matney revisits the chaotic days following Alex Murdaugh’s alleged roadside shooting — a moment that exposed the cracks in the powerful lawyer’s web of lies and manipulation.Through exclusive reporting and sharp skepticism, Mandy questions whether the “suicide-for-hire” story ever made sense, unraveling contradictions between what Alex’s attorneys claimed and what evidence actually showed.This episode also captures how media outlets were misled by Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin’s PR spin — and why challenging their narrative became a defining moment for independent journalism.Revisiting this episode now, it’s clear this was when the Murdaugh myth began to crumble publicly, revealing not only a desperate man but a culture (and legacy media) that long protected him.Episode References“Accused of misappropriation of funds, Alex Murdaugh resigns from law firm and enters rehab” - Hampton County Guardian, Updated Sept 7, 2021“Lawyer Shot After Wife and Son Were Killed Had Been Pushed Out of Law Firm” - New York Times, Sept 6, 2021🔗 Watch Murdaugh: Death in the Family — now streaming on Hulu and Disney+ 🔗 Watch the MDITF Official Companion Podcast featuring interviews with the cast, crew, and creators behind the series on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ or listen to extended audio episodes wherever you get your podcasts. hulumurdaughpod.com.
