    DEEP DIVE: THE EPSTEIN FILES, PART 4

    Another week of chipping away at the iceberg. Today we’re diving into the Gislaine sighting in Canada, Bill Gates admitting to affairs with two Russian women, Trump releasing the alien files (anything but release the Epstein files we guess), Epstein’s FedEx account being used after his death, and apparently Epstein’s autopsy findings (apparently the dude can grow new body parts?).

    Episode 392: The Au Pair Catfish

    On a quiet February morning in an upscale Virginia suburb, a 911 call shattered the quiet. An au pair reported an intruder. A federal agent said he fired his weapon to protect his family. By sunrise, two people had lost their lives. At first, it sounded like a tragic act: a heroic husband trying to protect his wife, Christine. But as investigators began pulling at the threads, the story started to unravel.In episode 392 of The First Degree, Jac and Alexis walk you through the double murder that gripped northern Virginia — and the arrogance, betrayal, and devastating choices that left a child without her mother and two families forever changed. 🎟 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: KEITH GENTRY

    On November 9, 2005, a husband and father is shot while he sleeps inside his family’s Texas home. His wife calls 911 just after sunrise, reporting an open back door, missing guns, and what appears to be a home invasion gone wrong. But when police arrive, there are no signs of forced entry. No ransacked rooms. And no clear evidence that anyone from the outside ever came in. As investigators begin processing the scene, they uncover physical evidence that doesn’t quite fit the story being told. What first looks like a random act of violence slowly shifts into something far different. In this episode, Jac and Alexis examine the murder of Keith Gentry, the investigation that divided a family, and the evidence that ultimately led to a conviction.

    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.
