It was another huge week in the ‘ Murdaugh Murders ’ crime and corruption saga as prosecutors and defense attorneys for disbarred lawyer/ accused killer Alex Murdaugh faced off in a courtroom in Florence County, South Carolina – debating several key motions in advance of a scheduled January 2023 trial. The hearing revealed significant new information related to the double homicide at the heart of...

In this heavily caffeinated edition of the FITSNews Week In Review we dove right into recent bombshell Murdaugh crime and corruption saga developments. For months informed speculators – ourselves included – have posited it is highly unlikely a few ‘lone wolves’ could have successfully executed the complex financial crimes Alex Murdaugh , Cory Fleming , and Russell Laffitte stand accused of committ...

It was a blustery edition of our popular ‘ Week In Review ’ program as we filmed the show during amid the arrival of Hurricane Ian – which made landfall near Georgetown, South Carolina on Friday afternoon as a strong category one storm. With the exception of some intense coastal flooding and the destruction of the Pawleys Island pier, Ian’s impact on the Palmetto State paled in comparison to the d...

Last week, two of my kiddos stopped by the set of our ‘ Week In Review ’ program. This week, we were graced by the presence of their beautiful mother – who happens to be the chief executive officer of this news outlet. A Prussian princess raised on 9 Mile in Eastpointe, Detroit, Katrina Folks brings the accountability to FITSNews – enabling us to hold those in power accountable for their actions (...

Last week, I predicted the mushrooming Rockstar Cheer scandal was going to wind up being an even bigger story than the ‘ Murdaugh Murders ’ crime and corruption saga. Turns out I had no idea how much bigger … Rockstar Cheer went national this week on the strength of a huge federal lawsuit filed by attorneys with the Columbia, S.C.-based Strom Law firm. This lawsuit – filed in U.S. district court i...

The FITSNews team was in full plague mode this week, with multiple members of the Folks brood catching a nasty case of Covid-19. Despite this, we were able to provide stellar coverage of the multiple Murdaugh developments, abortion legislation debate, a FOIA smackdown, and much more. I begin the show by breaking down the Murdaugh developments from this week. Alex Murdaugh faces a new round of stat...

Last week, the ‘ Murdaugh Murders ’ crime and corruption saga got bumped to the “C-block” – or third section – of our increasingly popular ‘ Week in Review ’ program. This week the story roared back with a vengeance … and appears poised to produce even more revelations next week. As you can see from our show notes ( below ), it was a huge week for Murdaugh-related news – with multiple breaking sto...

It was another incredibly busy week here at FITSNews – beginning with the bombshell we dropped on South Carolina via our exclusive interview of former Charleston sex worker Lindsey Edwards . Where is Lindsey’s story headed from here? I delved into that in the first block of this edition of the ‘ Week In Review .’ Our show also updated readers on the latest developments in the William Timmons ’ aff...

Our founding editor Will Folks is back in the chair for this Saturday’s edition of the FITSNews Week in Review! In this episode, we treaded dangerously close to Real Housewives of Greenville territory – delving into the cast of characters tied to the sex scandal surrounding U.S. congressman William Timmons. Missed that drama? Well, “it started with a whisper …” and yes, Will quoted (and even tried...

Happy weekend! In this week’s episode we finally put the partisan primaries in the rear-view mirror, we talk about Joe Cunningham’s struggle to find a female running-mate of color and end with the criminal proceedings that Alex Murdaugh associate Curtis Edward Smith is currently facing. Krystle Matthews won the democratic run-off and is now the party’s nominee to run for U.S. Senate. Before voters...

Its been lonely here at FITSNews HQ this week with our founding editor Will Folks soaking up the rays (and possibly grease from fried fish). Easy, ladies  In Will’s absence we’ve pulled out all the stops to put together a great show for you. I’m most excited for you to see the special report put together by our researcher extraordinaire Jennifer Wood on the potential for federal involvement in the...

Between this week’s partisan primary elections, a visit from Wesley Donehue and our receipt of dozens of Alex Murdaugh ‘s Jailhouse phone calls – this week has been busy. Luckily, Will breaks it all down for us in this episode of the Week in Review. Nancy Mace ‘s victory in the first congressional district was the biggest news of Tuesday night, and was a major win for former S.C. governor Nikki Ha...

We have been doing the ‘ Week in Review ’ for nearly half a year now and (incredibly) I have avoided saying anything overtly offensive or cancel-worthy. Until this week … In a failed attempt to insult Reddit users, I wound up doing a patently offensive imitation of Apu from The Simpsons – which is ironic because I was trying to imitate a Farsi accent, not a Hindi one. Either way, the complaint dep...

You asked for it so here it is... Our full interview with attorneys Eric Bland and Ronnie Richter
