    Episode 391: Danny Rex Harris

    On October 26, 2007, a 55-year-old military veteran was found murdered in his home on the outskirts of Memphis, Tennessee. The family of the father of four was heartbroken. They, along with investigators, wondered who could be responsible for the brutal beating. Within days, the perpetrators were identified, charged, and eventually convicted. But for at least one family involved, something was amiss.  Soon,  cracks in the investigation revealed that someone had been wrongfully convicted while the real killer  walked free; it sets Stephanie Tinsley on an unrelenting quest to expose the truth. In episode 391, Jac and Alexis detail the haunting murder of Danny Harris, and Stephanie’s journey towards the truth, which she chronicled in her hit podcast, Everything They Missed. 🎟 Catch up to FOUR bonus episodes per month plus full video episodes over on Patreon: patreon.com/thefirstdegree 📸 Instagram: instagram.com/thefirstdegree 🕺 TikTok: tiktok.com/@thefirstdegreee 👤 Facebook: facebook.com/thefirstdegree 📓 Substack: http://thefirstdegree.substack.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    EXCLUSIVE: ANNA LISA RAYMUNDO

    On November 8, 2002, a 32-year-old pharmaceutical researcher is found stabbed to death inside her waterfront condo in Stamford, Connecticut. A frantic 911 call reports a man entering her apartment, but when police trace the call, nothing adds up. There are no signs of forced entry. No obvious suspect. And the person who claims to have witnessed the killer seems to vanish. As investigators dig deeper, they uncover a secret relationship, a hidden marriage, and an obsession that refuses to fade. What first appears to be a random act of violence slowly reveals something far more calculated. In this episode, Jac and Alexis examine the murder of Anna Lisa Raymundo, the years-long investigation that followed, and how jealousy, deception, and fixation ultimately led to a conviction.

    On September 28, 2015, a young mother is found beaten to death inside her remote home in Caton, New York, while her two small children are just upstairs. Her husband says he was away at a poker game, and at first, investigators believe the crime may have been the work of an intruder. But as detectives begin pulling at the threads of the case, troubling details emerge, stories start to unravel, and a murder-for-hire plot comes into focus. In this episode, Jac and Alexis examine the murder of Kelley Stage, the investigation that led to two life sentences without parole, and how a carefully constructed alibi began to fall apart.
