Summary
What happens when a high school sociology teacher hands his students a decades-old cold case instead of a textbook? Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell sit down with Alex Campbell — the Elizabethton, Tennessee high school teacher behind the Prime Video docuseries Murder 101 — whose classes have spent eight years working the Redhead Murders, a string of killings of women found along Southern highways in the 1980s and written off for decades, along with other true crime cases. Campbell tells the story of the case that started it all, we get into the FOIA scene Mandy couldn't stop texting about, explore why teenagers can see things detectives can't, and what it means that Tracy Walker got her name back. ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Join LUNASHARK Premium on Patreon Support Our Legal Defense GoFundMe: Help Journalist Mandy Matney Fight $176,500 Contempt Order Or support our reporting: https://lunashark.supercast.com/donations/new Lawyers & Judges: Send legal suggestions or offers for Pro Hac / Pro Bono representation to [email protected] Episode References “‘Murder 101’: Get to Know Alex Campbell, the Teacher Trying to Solve Serial Killer Case” - TV Insider, July 13, 2026 📰 Listen to Murder 101 Podcast on your favorite podcast player 🎧 Watch “Murder 101” on Amazon Prime 🎞️ “Tennessee High Schoolers Solved a Nearly 40-Year-Old Serial Murder Mystery” - The 74, Jan 24, 2024 📰 Support Alex Campbell’s classroom by purchasing “Driven by Rage, Fueled by Diesel” 📖 Read Alex Campbell’s book “Ten Lessons That Will Get You Fired: (But You Must Teach Immediately)” 📖 NamUs - National Missing and Unidentified Persons System 🌐 Kitty Genovese Overview on History.com 🌐 Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ LUNASHARK Premium on Patreon get ac…
