The mother of Stephen Smith, a Hampton County teenager found dead in the middle of a road in July 2015, raised more than $60,000 in a week to fund the exhumation of her son’s body and a second autopsy. A pathologist classified Stephen’s mysterious death as a “hit-and-run” despite no vehicle debris being found at the scene. The Law&Crime Network’s Angenette Levy talks with Sandy Smith and her new lawyer, Ronnie Richter, about her son and the work it’ll take to build an investigation as Buster Murdaugh denies any involvement in the death of his former high school classmate.

  1. Struck by a car? I don’t think so, the young man could’ve run out of the way. It’s pretty hard to get struck by a car unless it’s chasing you down. Nice try no dice! I see this in my vision this boy was dead killed by someone’s hand. And they will most assuredly be answering for it it!!

  2. I know a lot of people don't believe in this kind of stuff but…on The Afterlife Interview with Maggie and Paul Murdaugh, Paul says that Buster and his friends did this. it is at 18:47 in the Part 2.

  3. R.I.P Steven Smith. Has the police worked out when the Murdoch's turned up at the scene because i heard the 911 call the guy made saying there was a body in the road. Now he doesn't add up to me because if that road was that dark why didn't the 911 caller stop in front of Steven Smith (R.I.P) and protect him. And am i right in saying that after that creature AM was convicted didn't the police say there was no need to exhume Stephen (R.I.P) because they ruled it a homicide. ?🇬🇧

  4. Does anyone else notice the light around Sandy like he's standing surrounding her with Love. I'm sure he's Blessed that his moms going to get justice for him. Imo his Spirit is surrounding his mom.

  5. What a handsome young man, sounds like he was intelligent too. Sandy lost her son, the public potentially lost a kind and knowledgeable doctor. I hope justice is finally given to Stephen and his family ❤

  6. It seems too much of a coincidence that in the Boat accident it seemed to be Paul Murdaugh that was responsible, then Buster Murdaugh in the Steven Smith case, any of the murdaughs for the worker, and then Alex Murdaugh for his wife and son. I guess I could see why people would hate them as it does look very suspicious, I guess either they are an awful family or they are really hated. I guess the money situations clarified people wanted justice, but did some want revenge enough to kill and frame them.

  7. As a Mother of a child who has also passed, I truly hope she’s able to learn what did happen & that she can handle the truth. There’s more to this story & I don’t believe the Murdaughs were involved at all in it. He was sneaking out to meet someone off the internet or something to that, perhaps in the community, & may or may not have been caught. The fact that the lawyer of hers current acknowledges that “even if someone did strike him with a vehicle, they failed to render aid”, tells me that it’s very plausible he very well believes himself that this was a hit and run by all the evidence available to him. This family deserves answers and the cause of death to be finalized, if it hasn’t already been done. I’m so over hearing it’s been now ruled a homocide as it’s always been classified a vehicular homicide by hit and run, so the news needs to report the news and not opinion. They need a lot of proof to have a Judge to reopen a case as even the lawyer says that SLED did a full investigation & the Judge isn’t going to take theories into evidence or false unproven facts.

  8. Due to the lack of evidence and any real physical evidence of a point of impact with a human body and a vehicle, and the fact that I’ve never heard of any drag marks being left on the victims body it looks like a staged crime scene to make it look like a hit and run. A poor attempt at best.

  9. Eric, good work so far as I understand it. Hope you're doing well after the surgery. Hope you're able to stay away from addictive drugs. We all know why! Best of luck! Best wishes!

  10. Well you know Alex had something to do with it he will kill anyone to get his way an if his son did he needs to be right beside his dad money makes people do crazy things even killing your on family, friends an house keeper's it's so sad he got hung up with that killer POS I wonder who was his secret lover Alex or his son because anyone that gets close to that family gets killed..🙏🙏🙏 for the mom..🙏🙏

  11. My heart hurts for stevens mom but shatters for his twin sister. I am not a twin I just know I would be broken without my sister and brother. I hope this family gets justice.

  12. R.I.P. Stephen Smith❤ And bless you Sandy Smith for your love for Stephen and patience in having the truth revealed after 8 years. The medical examiner and each and everyone of the investjgators
    Should be re-interrogated to see how they proceeded. Why was it put on "hold" for so long? Someone didn't do their job.

  13. I hope they will find out what happened to Stephen. I wouldn't be surprised if the Murdaughs have something to do with it.
    RIP, Stephen 🕊️🕊️🕊️
    ~~~
    Justice for Stephen! 📢

  14. You better keep his phone in a secure spot. It will tell a lot just like it did with big daddyalex. And who did he go fishing with.

  15. Thank you for doing this. Stephen deserve justice🙏and now its time. I pray for the truth🕯🙏❤️RIP Stephen.

  16. Interesting why His wallet was still at car if he was walking for gas makes me think he was picked up from car and taken , killed and dumped in middle of road. Praying for Justice for this Poor Man and some truth for his Mom . God Bless her . Love you Sandy. He was a wonderful man that wanted to work in the health care as I was a nurse for 40+ years . God bless.
