True Sunlight #156 [ Part One ] - A Dark Day At The House Of True Sunlight After $176,500 Contempt Sanction
from True Sunlight · host LUNASHARK
[Part One of Two] Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell react to a stunning contempt ruling ordering Mandy to pay a $5,000 fine and $171,500 for billionaire Greg Parker's legal fees — a sum greater than what many murder defendants pay for their entire defense, and a penalty whose line-item breakdown has been sealed from Mandy and the public. Mandy argues the ruling has nothing to do with a missed deposition and everything to do with punishing a journalist who refused to stay quiet. David Moses reads directly from South Carolina contempt law to expose how the order may exceed its own legal authority. Then Liz breaks down the bigger picture: the evidence connecting Greg Parker to Gregg Roman, the photos of Mallory Beach's dead body, and the documentary that used them — a puzzle hiding in plain sight while Parker's attorneys keep everyone focused on Mandy. This is a fight for the First Amendment for a woman's safety. And it's just getting started.
