À propos de cet audio
Host/private eye Mike Spencer airs parts of the tapes from the case file. These interviews have never been heard by the public. Spencer won the tapes in 2025 after a five-year battle with the San Francisco Police Department. The tapes are part of the case file from the June 12, 1998 murder of the ex-con biker.
Police seemed to have overwhelming evidence against Murphy's enemy in a child custody case, the grandmother of Murphy's then 6-year-old daughter. Murphy had been winning in family law court against grandma at the time of his death. An informant arrested in a notrorious Piedmont home invasion rape told police that the grandmother had hired the hitman and the getaway driver through grandma's then boyfriend.
The tapes reveal the desperation of the informant to try to get out of custody before giving police a more detailed statement. The two San Francisco detectives grilled the informant, the gunman, the driver, and grandma's boyfriend but they could not get a confesstion out of the suspects. Police would later lose the phone records and no one was ever arrested or charged with Murphy's murder.
