The Murdaugh murders case shed light on another homicide that took place in South Carolina in 2015. Nineteen-year-old Stephen Smith was found dead in the middle of the road in Hampton County. Investigators recently ruled Stephen’s death a homicide. Prior to this ruling, internet rumors about Buster Murdaugh and his family’s unfounded involvement in Stephen’s death spread. The surviving Murdaugh recently broke his silence and publicly denounced the claims, stating the media has been issuing “defamatory” statements about him. The Law&Crime Network’s Jesse Weber and Sidebar host Angenette Levy discuss the potential for a defamation case with attorney Benjamin Chew, a partner at the Brown Rudnick law firm and the lead attorney who represented Johnny Depp in his high-profile defamation trial against Amber Heard.
