Summary

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell sit down with Stephanie Tinsley to turn up the mic—and the spotlight—on Stephanie’s ‘Everything They Missed’, a new, true-crime podcast series that reopens a murder case that should’ve never been closed. Everything They Missed is a new series retracing the cold case of Danny Harris—a father, veteran, and Tennessean whose murder became a case study in how quickly justice can be closed off. Through a cinematic, document-rich narrative, Stephanie raises crucial questions about the choices investigators made, voices dismissed, and evidence overlooked. Her work is a vivid reminder: justice isn't just about what’s easy to see, but what requires the courage to investigate the inconvenient. But here’s the real twists: its the railroading cops, missing fingerprints, and page-flip detective work that just doesn't add up. Stephanie’s method? Relentless digging, unheard voices, and questions no one else dared to ask. We're unpacking where this case went wrong—and why none of us can look away.☕ Cups Up! ⚖️Episode References Follow Stephanie Tinsley on Instagram and X Give “Everything They Missed” a listen on your favorite streaming service! 🎧 Stone Phillips from Dateline 📺 “Police identify body found in east Memphis apartment” - Action 5 News, Oct 31, 2007 📰 Premium Resources Rewatch Premium Happy Hour with Liz Farrell and Mark & Stephanie Tinsley - July 27, 2023 🎞️ Watch our next Pesky Picks show “The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox” on Hulu 🎞️ Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Premium Members⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ also get access to all new bonus episodes like the corruption watchlist, Girl Talk (Liz & Mandy's Version), Premium Dives series, Q&A Episodes and more.

0:00.0	Hello and happy Tuesday.
0:09.4	I knew I liked Stephanie Tensley from the moment her husband Mark introduced her outside of
0:16.3	the Elyke Murdoch trial in 2023.
0:19.4	I could tell immediately that Stephanie understood the important
0:22.9	aspects of the story, not just the sensational parts. And any woman married to Mark Tensley
0:29.5	had to be strong-willed, morally grounded, and brilliant. Stephanie is all of those things and more.
0:36.7	We were thrilled to learn this year that Stephanie was working on a true crime podcast of her
0:42.3	own.
0:43.3	She said that she felt motivated after the Murdoch trial to find a story that she could
0:48.0	make a difference in exposing and investigating.
0:51.7	And boy, she found it.
0:53.8	Stephanie has spent the last year of her life investigating the 2007 murder of 55-year-old
1:00.2	Danny Harris in Memphis, Tennessee, in the subsequent prosecution of Andrew Hayes.
1:06.3	Like the Murdoch story, as Stephanie investigated the investigation, she unraveled hidden secrets, corruption,
1:12.6	and a case that was suddenly very much active. We are so honored to be joined by Stephanie Tinsley
1:19.5	today on Cup of Justice. Listen and subscribe to Stephanie's podcast, everything they missed,
1:25.9	wherever you get your podcast, or click the link
1:29.3	in the description.
1:30.9	Okay, let's dive in.
1:36.4	Well, Cups Up, Stephanie Tensley is joining us today, and I'm so excited.
1:41.7	Cups up, everybody.
1:42.7	Cups up.
