Cup Of Justice

The Mica Francis Case

The Mica Francis Case

This week on “Cup of Justice” join investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell as they sit down with former OJ Simpson prosecutor Marcia Clark, who is host of the “Informants: Lawyer X” podcast now on Wondery. “Informants: Lawyer X” tells the (unbelievably wild and very true) story of an Australian defense attorney — Nicola Gobbo — who played both sides of the criminal justice system. Gobbo represented some of Melbourne’s biggest (alleged) criminals while also serving as a top informant for law enforcement. In other words, Gobbo was defending her clients while also telling on them. Mandy and Liz talk to Marcia Clark about what makes the Gobbo case so egregious and so unlike any other ethical lapses involving attorneys that we have ever seen. They also discuss the Menendez Brothers case, as well as the OJ Simpson case and how that case might have played if it happened in the age of podcasts and TikTok.  Also on the show, Mandy and Liz talk about what they’re seeing in the Christa Bauer Gilley case out of Houston, as well as thrice-accused rapist Bowen Turner, who is expected to be released from prison on Halloween.  Premium Members also get a discussion on the Menendez brothers' re-sentencing and the broader implications for abuse victims.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland — talk about Mandy’s wild encounter with an Uber driver who was a law enforcement officer in Marion, Kansas, and who … didn’t think the police raid on The Marion County Record and the related death of its editor’s 90-year-old mother were problematic or illegal? Good thing, quick-thinking David thought to record the conversation.  Also on the show, the Diddy case keeps getting more twisted as more victims come forward. How did it get this far without anyone stopping him? Were his lawyers complicit in the abuse? And who else was involved? It’s time to name them all and shame them all. They also touched on the importance of public trials and the role of cameras in courtrooms, highlighting the need for transparency and accountability.  Premium members also get a conversation updating us on Buster's defamation case as the defendants continue to fight back and discredit his claims.

On our 101st Cup of Justice podcast episode we tackle how the insurance and legal systems are rigged against consumers in the wake of disaster, how this benefits certain parties (like insurance companies and lawyers), and how the Murdaugh family and their associates exploited these systems for their gain. Specifically, the case of Hampton County, South Carolina, and its reputation for large settlements and verdicts, potentially due to corruption and the influence of powerful figures like the Murdaughs. It raises the question of whether the county's legal system is truly a "hellhole" for those seeking justice. We also look at the role of John Grantland, Alex Murdaugh's attorney in the Satterfield case, who admitted to smelling a trap but proceeded with the settlement anyway. It raises questions about Nautilus' actions and in the scheme - especially now that they are pursuing Alex to get their 3.8 million dollars back... about which we are skeptical to say the least.
