Investigative journalist Mandy Matney is still processing — but she’s not shrinking.
In Part Two, Mandy begins the episode reflecting on how Greg Parker’s scorched-earth legal campaign was supposed to scare her into silence and instead flipped a switch.
Then David delivers a blistering First Amendment Moses Moment, calling out Parker’s attorneys for using the court as a weapon against a non-party journalist — asking what she was wearing, how many Instagram followers she has, and why she dared to eat dinner in public.
And Liz Farrell breaks down Parker’s desperate venue transfer motion, which weaponizes LUNASHARK’s own Crowd the Courthouse 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 posts as evidence of jury contamination.
Then we roll the tape: Debbie B. Barbier’s closing argument, Judge Kelly’s bench remarks, and the moment the courtroom turned. The billionaire’s lawyers claim billings in the hundreds of thousands of dollars for the failed deposition. But Parker still can’t buy or force Mandy’s silence.
