COJ #147 - SC Judge Bragged About Raping Babies, Feds Say. Why wasn’t he caught earlier?

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland thought they would never read anything quite as horrible as the descriptions of Child Sexual Assault Material contained in former South Carolina Rep. RJ May’s court records. But they were wrong.  On Monday, the United States Government filed a brief arguing that Charleston County Judge — and South Carolina’s latest elected official accused of being a pedophile — James B. “Skip” Gosnell should be kept behind bars until his trial because he is not only one count of possession of Child Sexual Abuse Material.  He is also being accused of admitting to some of the most unthinkable abuse on babies. Naturally, Mandy, Liz and Eric have questions … who are the legislators and lawyers who helped Judge Gosnell behind the scenes to help keep him on the stand for decades despite a long history of racist and ethically corrupt behavior? And is this just the beginning? Will more powerful men in South Carolina be exposed for pedophilia? ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References “Charleston County Magistrate Charged with Possessing Child Sexual Abuse Material” - U.S. Attorney's Office, District of South Carolina, Sept 16, 2025 📰 “Feds work to ID possible child sex crime victims of Charleston County magistrate” - Live5 News, Sept 22, 2025 📰 Meet Bryan P.
