Episode 2: Our Town, Her Crime: Thoughts On Susan Smith

  • Summary

  • In this episode of The Lawmas Podcast, Lauren & Lacey, from Union, South Carolina, discuss the Susan Smith case from their unique hometown perspective. They were young children when Smith murdered her two sons, Michael and Alex, by driving her car into John D. Long Lake in 1994. They share personal memories from that time, including the community's initial belief in Smith's fabricated story about her children being kidnapped by a man at a traffic light in Monarch, and the fear that gripped their small town before the truth emerged just days later.

    Lauren & Lacey delve into the legal aspects of the case, explaining how Smith's actions led to South Carolina establishing true life sentences without parole. They discuss her upcoming parole hearing and share insider perspectives, including Lauren's mother potentially being called as a witness due to knowing Smith when she was a candy striper at the local hospital. Listen to learn their perspectives!
