TSP #68 - Legal Bullying From JP Miller and Greg Parker + Russell Laffitte Appeal + A Bestiality Accusation?

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell take on the Good Ole Boys once again, starting with lawyers who knowingly file frivolous lawsuits. Last week Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller and his attorney Russell B. Long filed a defamation complaint against a paralegal who said he called her law office in search of a divorce attorney who could “destroy” his wife, Mica Francis, whose body was found in a North Carolina swamp last April.

Not only is it laughable that JP believes this hurts his already-bad reputation, the complaint doesn’t articulate that anything the paralegal stated as fact is untrue. Also on the show, a newly released report from Horry County Police Department shows that JP Miller was accused of bestiality this past June. What?!?! We'll share all that we know about this public document and our ongoing fight with Horry County to release all that can be according to SC state law.

And Mandy and Liz take a look at the checkered past of Mica Francis’ psychiatrist … Dr. Duchesne... the one who seemed to take JP’s narrative as fact. Note: Mandy and Liz both pronounce Dr. "Duchesne" as they interpreted/researched it but its the same person...

Plus, an update on Russell Laffitte’s Federal Appeal Hearing and another South Carolina judge’s conduct is raising questions in the Beach case.  

So much to get into... so let's dive in...
