Attorney Eric Bland built the financial crimes case against Alex Murdaugh. He represented the Satterfield family. He represents Sandy Smith in the Stephen Smith investigation. He's been inside the Murdaugh universe longer than almost anyone — and the Supreme Court just tore the case open again. In this full-length interview, Bland covers all of it. He responds to the Supreme Court calling his clients' testimony legally worthless. He breaks down whether the prosecution overplayed the financial crimes evidence he helped expose. He explains what the defense might actually have when Harpootlian says they've uncovered new evidence and Griffin points to unknown DNA under Maggie's fingernails. Then he turns to Stephen Smith — the cold case that SLED reopened because of the Murdaugh murder investigation and that has produced a homicide ruling, a sealed autopsy, a fifty-thousand-dollar reward, and zero arrests in eleven years. Bland addresses what he knows about why the case was reopened, whether he's seen the autopsy results, and whether someone in the Lowcountry is protecting the person responsible for Stephen's death. This is the only interview where one attorney connects the overturned conviction, the retrial strategy, and the unsolved case that has haunted Hampton County for over a decade. Eric Bland holds pieces of this story that nobody else has — and he's putting them on the table.
