TSP #115 - RJ and the Dorkus: Who Is Helping Former SC Legislator RJ May In His Child Sex Crime Case?

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell weren’t surprised to learn last week that former South Carolina Rep. RJ May has asked to be his own lawyer. May — who faces 10 federal charges of distributing child sexual abuse materials — is that kind of guy. Just ask his father, whose post-arrest advice to May was “Humility, Robert John. You’ve got to have humility in all this.” But is RJ May truly representing himself? Or is he getting behind-the-scenes help from friends? On today’s episode, Mandy and Liz share RJ May’s texts and phone calls from Edgefield County Detention Center, and piece together why they think RJ fired his public defense team in favor of his own skills … as a non-lawyer. Are the same people who stood by RJ after the raid on his house still standing by him now? PLUS!!! Inspired by shocking actual events...
