The US vice president says there's evidence Iran ​is ‌trying to rebuild its nuclear program as the Trump Administration threatens the regime while positioning war ships in the region.If the US strikes Iran, it's vowing to hit back and fears of a regional conflict are prompting a warning from the Australian Government to citizens in Israel and Lebanon to leave while they can.The Trump Administration has put new sanctions on Iran, ahead of fresh talks in Geneva later today.The ABC's gained access to a camp in north-eastern Syria housing the wives and children of killed or captured Islamic State fighters.Two young girls have spoken about their desire to go home and buy things like toys and ice cream, as debate rages in Australia about whether to assist them, given the poor conditions in the camp.The Federal Government's insisting it won't do anything to help them come home, even though it can't stop most of them entering the country, if they do make it to Australian shores.A teenager from the New South Wales' Central Coast has become the first Australian confirmed to have died from a tick-induced red meat allergy.Jeremy Webb began having difficulty breathing after eating beef sausages on a camping trip and he later died in hospital.The state's coroner has ruled he died from an anaphylactic reaction to mammalian meat allergy, which triggered an asthma attack.There's only been one other fatal case known of in the world.

The delicious, healthful prune has long had a cross to bear: It's best known for making people poop. In the late 1990s, the California Prune Board set out on a quixotic mission to amend this sales-flattening reputation. It would attempt to rechristen this ancient fruit in the hopes the prune could one day be as unencumbered as an apricot, a raisin, or a fig. In a world where every product and person increasingly believes it's one good rebrand away from changing how they are seen, the story of the prune's attempt to become the “dried plum” is a telling tale about the impossibility of escaping who you really are—and the freedom that comes with self-acceptance.

Four hundred investigators. Twenty-two days. Zero arrests. And the investigation is at a crossroads.ABC News reported Friday that sources inside the Guthrie case believe the operation may soon scale back to a smaller long-term task force. The family has been briefed that certain leads aren't panning out. The DNA at the home is still unidentified. No additional video has been recovered. No vehicle has been connected to the abduction. Two high-profile detentions produced nothing.Meanwhile, if the perpetrator is local — and the January reconnaissance suggests they are — they've spent three weeks watching themselves become the most wanted person in America. The footage is everywhere. Gun shops are being canvassed. Walmart has turned over backpack purchase records. Genetic genealogy is spinning up. CeCe Moore says whoever did this should be "extremely concerned."And investigators aren't ruling out that more than one person was involved.Robin Dreeke spent twenty-one years in FBI counterintelligence running the Bureau's Behavioral Analysis Program. He managed teams under sustained pressure with no wins. He studied how people behave when they know they're being hunted. He built his career on understanding what makes people with dangerous knowledge finally talk.This interview examines every psychological dimension of where the Guthrie case stands right now. What happens inside an investigation when it transitions from surge to sustained? What's happening in the head of whoever did this as they watch the walls close in? What does the contradictory evidence — sophisticated reconnaissance, sloppy exit, ransom notes with no collection mechanism — suggest about whether this was one person or a partnership? And what does it take for someone with knowledge of a crime to finally come forward?The reward is over two hundred thousand dollars. Someone in this perpetrator's life has noticed the stress. Cases like this get solved when someone talks.Robin Dreeke breaks down the investigation's psychology, the suspect's psychology, and the psychology of the break.Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two high-profile detentions that produced nothing.Robin Dreeke spent twenty-one years in FBI counterintelligence running behavioral analysis operations. He breaks down what happens psychologically when an investigation this big hits this stage — when "sustainable" starts replacing "urgent," when institutional friction compounds the pressure, and when the family that cooperated fully gets told the cavalry is slowing down.This isn't about the suspect.

Four hundred investigators. Three weeks. Zero arrests. And now ABC News reports the case may scale back to a long-term task force.The family has been briefed that leads aren't producing results. The DNA at the home is still unidentified. No additional video has been recovered from the security system. No vehicle has been associated with the abduction. Two people detained and released — Carlos Palazuelos and Luke Daley — had no connection to the case.Robin Dreeke ran the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program for years. He's managed teams under sustained pressure when nothing is working. In this interview, he breaks down what happens inside an investigation at this exact stage — the psychological toll on investigators, the institutional traps cases fall into during transition, and what the incoming task force lead needs to prioritize.Former FBI hostage negotiator Rich Frankel told ABC: "You have to at one point move on to a long-term sustainable level of manpower. It is not a closed case." But what does that transition actually look like? And what gets lost when the cavalry slows down?Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In the ABC News 20/20 special about Ghislaine Maxwell and her role in Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking scandal, her brother Ian Maxwell gave an extended interview defending his sister and offering personal context about her life and their family. Maxwell described their upbringing as privileged yet emotionally complicated, noting that his sister was one of nine children of media mogul Robert Maxwell and had been somewhat “spoiled” by their father. He said he met Epstein only briefly and did not know the details of his sister's adult life with him, but insisted that Epstein's crimes and Maxwell's conduct were legally and morally distinct, urging viewers to treat her as “presumed innocent” given that she pleaded not guilty and was entitled to a fair legal process. Maxwell emphasized that the public narrative often conflated Epstein's actions with his sister's and portrayed her unfairly in the media.During the 20/20 interview, Ian Maxwell also recounted his limited personal interactions with Epstein, saying he did not find the financier especially likable and that Epstein's charisma was not something he shared. He pushed back against the sensational media coverage surrounding his sister's arrest and trial, framing her prosecution as overhyped and influenced by the high-profile nature of the case rather than pure legal evidence. Maxwell's remarks were part of a broader effort — also seen in other media appearances — to defend Ghislaine's character, argue that she deserved due process, and differentiate her from Epstein's criminal legacy, even as she faced federal convictions and sentences for her role in the abuse network.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Former Prince Andrew, now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, was arrested by U.K. police on his 66th birthday on suspicion of misconduct in public office linked to Jeffrey Epstein's scandal. The arrest stems from Epstein files revelations that he allegedly shared confidential British trade information with the convicted sex offender during his role as a U.K. trade envoy. While the U.K. has acted decisively by arresting high-profile figures connected to the Epstein list, no prominent Americans from the same documents have faced similar recent arrests in the United States.
