  • Summary

  • In light of how a TikTok creator posts a video admitting she spent every penny she raised in the name of helping Mica Francis’ family on booze and her mortgage... investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — and attorney Eric Bland talk about how the laws need to change to hold people accountable for this type of true crime fraud and how to protect yourself from getting scammed in these seemingly well-meaning fundraisers for victims of crime. We also talk about the release of Eric’s new book, “Anything But Bland” and its reception on social media. Plus the Jamie Lee Komoroski case goes to trial this week in Charleston County. Jamie Lee is accused of driving at three times the legal limit for alcohol — while going 65 mph in a 25 mph zone — and crashing into a golf cart carrying a couple coming back from their wedding reception in 2023. At the end of the episode, EB walks us through selected segments of his book.
