    COJ #82 - How The Mica Miller Case Shows Dangers of Divorce Laws While Kicker's Comments Add Context
    May 21 2024
    Cup of Justice co-hosts Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Eric Bland — talk about Chiefs Kicker Harrison Butker’s controversial convocation speech, in which he essentially told women graduates that they have been told a “diabolical lie” about pursuing an existence beyond being wives and mothers. These comments and those that support them add context to the Mica Miler case out of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and shows the challenges of divorcing but also the dangers of divorce laws. Mandy, Liz and Eric talk about all the ways women in abusive marriages are pummeled by the law — and the system. Premium Members get an extended conversation about Taylor Swift, the NFL and the pressure that still exists to be the kind of woman Harrison Butker says women should be. Let’s get into it...

  • COJ #81 - Special Guest: Court TV’s Julie Grant Talks Victims-First Journalism and What She’d Change About the Justice System

    COJ #81 - Special Guest: Court TV’s Julie Grant Talks Victims-First Journalism and What She’d Change About the Justice System
    May 14 2024
    Investigative journalist Liz Farrell — and everyone’s favorite attorney Eric Bland — sit down with lawyer (and journalist!) Julie Grant, host of Court TV’s “Opening Statements,” to talk about everything from Alex Murdaugh’s lies to Bill Cosby’s very worst behavior outside the courthouse to the emotional impact of the Colucci trial postponement. The three also discuss vicarious trauma and how that can affect reporters, what law school is REALLY like, as well as Julie’s unusual path to her well-deserved career and what aspect of the justice system she’d change if she had a magic wand. Julie is a journalist, a lawyer — and a trial court expert. Above all, she’s an advocate for victims. We really admire Julie’s work because of how she chooses to keep victims’ perspectives and their stories at the forefront of highly publicized national cases. Julie is a big advocate of therapy for everyone — not just lawyers and journalists — and she was the perfect guest for us to have during Mental Health Awareness Month because that’s such an important message. Plus, Premium Members get an additional segment when Julie introduces her new French bulldog puppy to Liz and Eric…So pup’s up to Julie! Let's get into it... If you are in crisis, please call, text or chat with the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988, or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting TALK to 741741.

    COJ #80 - The Red Flags in Mica Miller’s Death + Sandy Smith Meets with Investigators, Colucci Trial is Almost Here
    May 7 2024
    For starters, Cup of Justice has a new Instagram account @COJPOD so be sure to follow for all the updates on exciting new guests, the Colucci case, and more. Cup of Justice co-hosts Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Eric Bland — talk about what went down when Eric and Sandy Smith met with investigators to talk about where things stand in the Stephen Smith case. Also on the show, turns out accused killer Michael Colucci IS on an ankle monitor. Why is it so hard in South Carolina for victims to get a straight answer about a defendant’s bond conditions and whether they’re violating those terms? Also, on the show, the very strange death of 30-year-old Mica Miller. Was it a suicide? Or is there something else happening here altogether? In the weeks leading up to her death and in the wake of filing for divorce, Mica — whose husband John Paul Miller is pastor of a Myrtle Beach church — lived in fear of getting killed by John Paul. Now her family is fighting for law enforcement to listen. Plus, Premium Members will get a primer on what it means to sign a liability waiver and whether they can cross off the parts they don’t want to agree to. Let's get into it...
