New Filings: Accused Killer Michael Colucci Pleaded the Fifth 100 Times After Skipping Two Depositions

About this episode

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell take a break from the Alex Murdaugh retrial drama this week to revisit one of the most devastating cases they’ve covered in their careers: the 2015 death of 38-year-old Sara Lynn Moore Colucci. Nine years after Sarah Lynn Colucci's mother Barbara Moore filed a wrongful death lawsuit, accused killer Michael Colucci finally sat for his deposition — after skipping two of them — and pleaded the Fifth roughly 100 times, refusing to answer everything from the color of his tie to his own birthday. We break down the devastating questions he wouldn't answer about the autopsy findings, his shifting stories, and his financial troubles — and why Barbara’s new motion for summary judgment asks the judge to apply adverse inferences to 28 of them. They also expose the staggering double standard of South Carolina justice: Colucci was fined just $1,283.00 for blowing off two depositions, while Mandy was ordered to pay $176,500.00 in a case she isn't even a party to. Plus, an exciting announcement: COERCED: The Devotion & Death of Mica Francis Miller, the first LUNASHARK® “Drop-Feed”, launches Friday. Let's Dive In… 🥽 🦈 Join
