The Fall Line: True Crime

The Fall Line® focuses on cold cases that need attention. We cover missing persons cases, unsolved homicides, and unidentified remains (John and Jane Does) with thorough research and deep respect for those affected. We speak with families, detectives, victim advocates, and forensic experts to understand what happened—and why these cases remain unsolved. Every episode centers the victims, not the drama. We're looking into decades-old disappearances, following up on unsolved murders, and exploring why certain cases don't get the coverage they deserve. From small towns to major cities, we tell these important stories. Real cases. Real families. Real justice—that's what matters in every episode of The Fall Line®.

    Everything They Missed: The Wrongful Conviction of Andrew Hayes

    Danny Harris, a 55-year-old Air National Guard veteran, was murdered in his Tennessee apartment in 2007. Andrew Wayne Hayes, a man with an intellectual disability, confessed after a 27-hour interrogation and was sentenced to life in prison. But podcaster Stephanie Tinsley believes the wrong person is in prison. Her investigation "Everything They Missed" has uncovered confession contradictions, untested DNA evidence, and investigative failures pointing to other suspects. Stephanie discusses her real-time investigation and her theory about who really killed Danny Harris, her introduction to the Tennessee Innocence Project, and the world of wrongful convictions.

    The Disappearance of Mary Shotwell Little - A New Investigation

    Mary Shotwell Little vanished from Lenox Square mall in Atlanta on October 14, 1965. The 25-year-old newlywed's car was found the next day with blood evidence and unexplained mileage, launching one of the city's most intensive searches. Now, a decade-long investigation by civilian researchers has uncovered previously unseen FBI files and identified new leads in Mary's cold case. The new documentary THE VANISHING: The 60-Year Unsolved Disappearance of Mary Shotwell Little reveals their discoveries and explores fresh theories about what happened to the Atlanta bank secretary. Season 24 of The Fall Line covers missing persons, unsolved homicides, and unresolved deaths across the United States.
