Description

A recently released deposition has revealed troubling accusations about a powerful judge who is at the helm of criminal and civil procedures in the Lowcountry.   If her involvement in the Gloria Satterfield case was as intentional as the depositions say, then the South Carolina justice system – where judges are pretty much untouchable – has a huge problem on its hands.  In this episode, Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell pick apart Chad Westendorf's deposition led by Eric Bland.
