The Price of Covering Alex Murdaugh, a Body on the Tracks & Chuck Wright's Federal Countdown | WIR

FITSNews' Week in Review (WIR) returns with a vengeance. Founding editor Will Folks and research director Jenn Wood break down the latest developments in the Alex Murdaugh appeal, with a decision from the S.C. Supreme Court now imminent. What happens if the justices -- as widely expected -- reverse Murdaugh's convictions and remand his case back to the circuit court? FITSNews.com has answers, while Will has some blunt words for the powerful interests who have sought to intimidate this news outlet into backing away from the inconvenient truths at the heart of this case. Will also sat down with FITSNews chief photographer and researcher Andrew Fancher to discuss the long-awaited sentencing date announcement in the federal case against former Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright. Fancher also previewed Devil's Right Hand, an investigative series into the disgraced former lawman. Also on this week's program: an update in the mysterious death of Daniel Reed “DJ” Smith, whose body was found on a remote stretch of railroad tracks nearly seven years ago.
