In this gripping episode of Cup of Justice... investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell, and attorney Eric Bland — dive deep into the second Jane Doe lawsuit against JP Miller, revealing shocking details of alleged sexual abuse in an unaccredited religious school.

The lawsuit details how Miller's father, Wayne Miller, mishandled the initial report, placing the victim with the alleged assailant. The conversation also touched on the broader issues of church and school regulation, the challenges of pursuing civil and criminal cases, and the impact of media coverage on public perception.

The team explores the systemic failures that allowed predatory behavior to continue, discussing the challenges victims face when reporting assault and the complex legal landscape of pursuing justice.

Highlights include:

  • Explosive new allegations against JP Miller

  • Insights into the challenges of reporting sexual abuse

  • Behind-the-scenes details of the upcoming Murdaugh Murders Hulu series

  • Expert legal analysis from Eric Bland on civil litigation strategies

With their trademark blend of investigative reporting and candid conversation, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in true crime, legal insights, and equal justice for all.

Also! Big Congrats to Liz who appeared on Julie Grant's CourtTV show Friday, and catch EB on Anderson Cooper discussing a separate legal matter involving Nancy Mace.
