Murdaugh Retrials & The Scream Murders with Matt Murphy
About this episode
Heather McDonald discusses the Murdaugh retrials and the Scream Murders with former prosecutor Matt Murphy.
I am so excited to be joined once again by everyone’s favorite former prosecutor and surfing DA turned bestselling author, Matt Murphy, for another episode of Juicy Crimes. Matt is currently in the middle of writing his second book—this one diving into the minds of psychopaths and serial killers—so he had the perfect perspective for the cases we tackled today. We started by breaking down the latest major turn in the Alex Murdaugh case, discussing why his double murder conviction was overturned due to jury tampering by a court clerk and whether he stands a chance in a retrial. Then, we took a deep dive into the chilling 2006 "Scream Murders" in Idaho, where two teenagers, Brian and Tori, obsessed with horror films, brutally murdered their friend Cassie Jo Stoddart. We examined the haunting video evidence they left behind and discussed the heartbreaking reality for parents when their children commit such unfathomable evil. -If your glasses are overdue for a refresh, now is the time with Zenni.
