Thanks, Kent. I didn't see either of those, but I watched some of the trial and read a lot of the coverage.

CNN was the only major media outlet that gave substantial attention to this aspect. And from my perspective as a journalist, it made a strong case that the gay teenager was murdered, perhaps by a Murdaugh or someone hired by one of them.

I can't fathom why the LGBTQ+ community isn't demanding answers, unless it's that the episode has had too little coverage for people to know about it. This looks like a cover-up of the real reasons why an absolutely innocent gay teenager died.
