Before the fentanyl, prosecutors say there was fraud. Nearly half a million dollars allegedly siphoned from Eric Richins through forged signatures, unauthorized credit lines, and misdirected tax payments — all while Kouri Richins ran her own real estate business and closed multi-million-dollar deals.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers to examine the psychology of financial exploitation when the "victim" narrative doesn't match the evidence. The forensic accounting shows money flowing one direction: from Eric to Kouri. Yet testimony suggests she framed herself as trapped by their prenuptial agreement.That disconnect — between documented financial freedom and apparent perception of victimhood — is exactly what this episode unpacks.The alleged escalation is striking: smaller transactions around 2015-2016, then a $250,000 home equity line prosecutors say was opened with a forged signature in 2019, then misdirected tax payments, credit cards maxed in Eric's name, and eventually alleged life insurance fraud.Eric discovered the fraud in September 2020. Prosecutors say Kouri admitted it. Promised to pay it back. Allegedly never did. He talked to divorce attorneys but stayed.What happens when a partner's decision to stay gets interpreted as permission to continue? How does accountability dissolve when consequences never arrive?The forensic accountant painted a grim picture of Kouri's real estate business: $170,000 in revenue over five months while debt service exceeded $250,000. Prosecutors allege falsified bank statements, bad checks written to herself, and Eric's business letterhead used to secure loans.Shavaun Scott breaks down the psychology of entitlement, self-deception, and doubling down when everything is failing.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Tucker Carlson has been vocal in recent days about the escalating U.S.-Israeli military strikes on Iran, meeting multiple times with President Trump in the Oval Office to warn against the operation. According to The New York Times, Carlson cautioned Trump on risks to U.S. troops, energy markets, and regional allies, arguing that Israel's push for action was driving U.S. decisions, but Trump overruled him and authorized the campaign, which began with the killing of Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei and targeted nuclear sites and leadership. In fresh commentary covered by Dawn News and ARY News, Carlson revealed that Qatar and Saudi Arabia arrested alleged Mossad agents last night plotting bombings there amid the war, claiming Israel seeks to harm not just Iran but also Gulf states like Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, and Kuwait—rivals it wants destabilized—calling Dubai a "luxury brand" now hurt by the chaos. He heavily criticized Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, stating Israel aimed to "diminish the Gulf" and sow disorder among America's closer allies.On his Tucker Carlson Network, Carlson continues releasing episodes pushing back on government secrecy, with a recent interview of Rep. Tim Burchett on UFOs, insider trading, and institutional trust drawing strong conservative support while sparking backlash from progressives over his immigration and protest coverage. The platform's subscription model and fundraising for "patriotic capitalism" ventures are expanding his independent media empire, as noted by business journals.Reactions highlight fractures: Laura Loomer accused him of pro-Islamic bias, and the ADL criticized his hosting of Nick Fuentes, calling it sympathetic to white supremacism without pushback. No new legal issues have emerged, but his influence shapes right-wing debates on U.S. foreign policy and media ethics.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Part 1 of "Surviving the Fog"—a five-part psychological examination of coercive control patterns, using the Kouri Richins case as a framework.How did Eric Richins not see what prosecutors allege was happening? $4.5 million in debt. A boyfriend. Allegedly buying fentanyl. All while he thought he had a marriage.The answer is documented in abuse research: love bombing.This episode breaks down the psychology:LOVE BOMBING: The overwhelming early attention that feels like finally being seen. The intensity that feels like fate. These personalities don't stumble into relationships—they select targets, study vulnerabilities, and become exactly what you've been missing.TRAUMA BONDING: The neuroscience of addiction to a person. Intermittent reinforcement—affection, withdrawal, affection—creates the same dopamine patterns as gambling. You're not weak. Your brain has been hijacked.THE MASK: The person you fell in love with may have never existed. The early days weren't a phase to get back to. They were a hook.RED FLAGS THAT LOOK GREEN: Moving fast. Constant contact. The sad backstory. The soulmate narrative. All romantic on the surface. All strategic underneath.If you felt chosen in a way you never had before—you weren't lucky. You were targeted.We're not diagnosing Kouri Richins with any condition. We're examining behavioral patterns that prosecutors have alleged and that researchers have documented extensively.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

One thing that I'll always remember about the end of my daily show experience is that one accompanying factor was the start of a war. It can be hard to keep at things when you're feeling down, and war had broken out in the Middle East the day I broke my streak of over 100 daily episodes. That's on my mind again because today's Cardinal is of Palestinian descent, and another war broke out today. So before we move on, I want to endorse both working for peace  and praying for peace. Goodness knows we need to do all we can, and that we need all the help we can get.  Also, before we get into things, please note that this episode was basically the one that sealed the deal on me going into my most recent hiatus. It took more research than expected because of the number of serious accusations adjacent to the story of our Cardinal of the day. Arguably I *could* have told most of future Cardinal Chomalí's story without getting into the Karadima case and subsequent Barros controversy, but that would have taken a lot of intentional sidelining of topics that unfortunately need to be front and center regardless of how controversial they are. Dozens of times we've seen the consequences of downplaying or sidelining such things, and I don't intend to contribute to that. If Cardinal Chomalí goes to the next round, I promise more of the focus will be on his own life and less on the dung he found himself shoveling. And now for the official warning: please note that this episode includes extensive discussion of scandal caused by the sexual abuse of minors and coverups. Listener discretion is advised. Today we're looking at our fifth bishop from the list of new Cardinals Pope Francis elevated on December 7th 2024–his last consistory for the creation of new Cardinals. Fernando Natalio CHOMALÍ GARIB, who describes himself as a descendent of a Palestinian, was born on March 10, 1957 in Santiago, Chile, the capital and largest city basically in the middle of the almost comically long country along South America's Pacific coast. Fernando is one of our late blooming vocations–his first degree was in Civil Engineering, though admittedly it was from the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, which does host a seminary, though presumably our civil engineer didn't go through that side of things. Instead, when Fernando did decide to go to seminary and study theology and philosophy and such, it was through the Pontifical Major Seminary of Santiago, a storied institution in the suburbs. Enter the B plot for today, because in 1984, the same year Fernando entered seminary, a group of parishioners reported the “improper conduct” of another I cannot emphasize enough quite different Fernando, Father Fernando Karadima. The report was made to the Archbishop of Santiago, a man whose name I will not trouble you with because this is going  to be an episode with a lot of names as-is and he'll get his own episode in time. Allegedly the letter containing the report was “torn up and thrown away”, in any event nothing came of it at the time. The Archbishop's secretary, Juan Barros, possibly already Father Barros by this stage, was a protege of Karadima and would later wind up accused of helping cover up Father Karadima's crimes, and this is not the last time we will see him, so keep that name in mind. To recap, we have Father Karadima, a powerfully connected child rapist, potential Father Barros, a fan of Father Karadima and an alleged enabler, and not-yet Father Chomalí, our Cardinal of the day, who isn't connected to our B-Plot yet, so let's move his side of things forward and see how this plays out. In 1991, after seven years of study on top of his engineering degree, Franando Chomalí was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Santiago de Chile. After two years of yet further study, he then obtained a licentiate in Moral Theology from the Gregorian in Rome, followed a year later by a doctorate in Sacred Theology from the same storied institution in 1994. I did see some reference to pastoral work, but considering we're like five degrees deep and he still isn't done studying–hello masters in bioethics from the John Paul II Institute in Rome–it's not going to surprise you that Father Chomalí mainly followed the academic route, serving in bioethical and theological posts at the Major Pontifical Seminary of Santiago and the Pontifical University of Chile–both of these, you might recall, being institutions that he had personally attended. In 2001, presumably in part due to his bioethics credentials, he was added to the Pontifical Academy for Life for life, which, yes, I'm repeating myself because not only is “for Life” part of the name, but apparently it was a lifetime appointment. Unfortunately in 2016 Pope Francis shook things up so there are no more appointments to the Pontifical Academy for Life for life. In 2003, our B plot shows back up, with a successor Cardinal Archbishop of Santiago getting more reports of Father Karadima's monstrosities. You'll be pleased to know that at this point the Chilean Bishop's Conference had new processes in place and you'll be furious to know that those new processes were basically ignored while the Cardinal told the complainant that he was praying for him. Nothing was done, hashtag thoughts and prayers. The next year the same cardinal received another report, and you'll be pleased to know that this time the case wound up referred to a specialist, who determined the allegations were credible and recommended action. You'll then be *again* furious to learn that the Cardinal proceeded to ignore the determination and dismissed the case anyways. You'll hear more about all this in *that* cardinal's episode, for now let's get back to Fr  Chomalí, whose phone is ringing. His white phone. It's Pope Benedict, calling to make him Auxiliary Bishop of Santiago and Titular Bishop of Nola because you apparently just can't be an auxiliary bishop without a little patch of North Africa to theoretically but not practically call your own. Anyways, that all went down in 2006. In 2010, the Karadima case became international news for the first time when victims filed a criminal complaint in Chile's courts, twenty-five years after that first 1985 letter to Church authorities. The civil courts did not prove more helpful, dismissing the lawsuit due to the time having passed since the events in question, which really has me wanting to flip some tables. For what it's worth, the presiding judge made it clear that she thought Karadima was guilty as sin. The accusations now being public apparently stirred the Church into action. Suddenly the stonewalling Cardinal–reminder that's not Chomalí but another prelate we'll discuss in time–sent a reportedly 700 page file over to the Vatican, which in 2011 found Karadima guilty of abusing minors and sentenced him to a "life of prayer and penitence”. The by then 80 year old Karadima would continue protesting his innocence and by some accounts flaunt his ban from ministry, saying Mass for his followers, which, yes, he definitely *still* had followers. Also in 2011, our Cardinal of the Day Bishop Chomalí became Archbishop Chomalí when Pope Benedict made him Archbishop of Concepción, a bit south of Santiago, which was his first time really serving outside the capital apart from his studies in Rome. And with the Karadima case casting a shadow over the Church across the country, Archbishop Chomalí had his work cut out for him, with trust in the Church as an institution plummeting from 61% in 2010 to just 36% a year later according to polling data. Incredibly, Archbishop Chomalí managed to *increase* church membership in these conditions, probably aided by the broadly popular election of Pope Francis in 2013. Pope Francis wasn't magic though, and it's time to talk about one of his bigger mistakes. Remember Juan Barros, the Archbishop's secretary who was accused of helping protect his mentor Father Karadima? Well, he had been made a bishop back in the 90s, and in 2015 against the advice of basically everyone everywhere, Pope Francis decided to give Barros a new post as Bishop of Osorno. One of the voices against the appointment was Archbishop Chomalí, who was serving as Apostolic Administrator of Osorno at the time and so had front row seats to just how poorly it was coming across, and urged Pope Francis to reconsider. In addition, about half the clergy of the diocese publicly opposed the move–coming out in public against the guy who is set to be your boss is pretty gutsy–and even the politicians got involved, with 51 members of Chile's National Congress signing a letter opposing the move. Pope Francis carried on undaunted, and Bishop Barros was installed in a rather poorly attended ceremony, that is, poorly attended unless you count the hundreds of protestors who stormed the Cathedral. Bishop Barros came over to Osorno from the post he had held as the Military Ordinary for Chile. With that spot now vacant, you guessed it, Archbishop Chomalí was tapped to administer things for Chile's military, which, it's worth noting, grants him the rare privilege of being associated with Antarctica on GCatholic's database, thanks to the Chapel of St. Mary Queen of Peace in Chile's Antarctic zone. The controversy over Bishop Barros came to a head a few years later, when Pope Francis visited Chile. To be clear, the visit *didn't* calm things down–the word “firebombings” comes to mind–and Pope Francis didn't make a conciliatory gesture during the trip. Quite the opposite in fact. Pope Francis wound up defending his choice to appoint Bishop Barros and keep him in place, stating that the case against Barrros was baseless slander, committing that if he ever received evidence, he would respond. With the gauntlet thrown, the evidence apparently came, such that within months Pope Francis was apologizing for his stance, and the *entire* Bishops' Conference of Chile offered their resignations to the Pope, which might give a sense of the magnitude reached here. In the end, most of the bishops, including Archbishop Chomalí, were allowed to carry on, resignations not accepted, though Bishop Barros and three others were sacked as part of the reckoning. Later in the year, presumably as additional fallout from the visit and the subsequent fresh round of investigations, Karadima himself was laicized. *Mr.* Karadima would die in 2021. In October of 2023, Pope Francis appointed Archbishop Chomalí as the fourteenth Archbishop of Santiago de Chile. He became President of the Episcopal Conference of Chile at the same time, which I imagine was no coincidence, though there have been times recently when the two posts are held by different people. He had been the Conference's Vice President since 2021. Given his influential post in Chile's capital, Archbishop Chomalí's inclusion in Pope Francis's last batch of new Cardinals was hardly a surprise. Even though Pope Francis didn't heed his advice at the time, it's likely that Chomalí's advice against one of the biggest mistakes of Pope Francis' papacy was on both their minds as Francis made him a Cardinal. Shortly after Cardinal Chomalí was elevated, The Pillar, which is becoming something of a go-to source for church news, published a series of short interviews with several of the new Cardinals, including Chomalí. And so as we prepare to wrap things up for today, I'd like to offer you a short quotation from that piece so you can get a bit of flavoring from him rather than from the  various dumpster fires he was tasked with putting out: “Christian anthropology says that if we want to be happy, we have to give ourselves to others. And secular anthropology tells us that we have to seek happiness by our own means. But things end up badly for us that way because we find ourselves in a society that competes but doesn't find itself. And that is precisely where conflicts arise.” Along with his brother cardinals, Fernando Natalio Cardinal CHOMALÍ GARIB participated in the recent election of Pope Leo. Just before the conclave, Cardinal Chomalí shared a video of himself hand-washing his shirt as part of his preparations, and of course you can catch that exciting link in the show notes. Cardinal Chomali will be eligible to participate in future conclaves until he turns 80 in 2037. Today's episode is part of Cardinal Numbers, and we'll be talking about another one of the new cardinals next month. Or well, later this month, since this episode is a bit late. Thank you for listening, God bless you all! Thanks, Joe!

Why murder instead of divorce? That's the question the Kouri Richins case forces us to confront.Prosecutors allege Kouri Richins poisoned her husband Eric with fentanyl, that she made multiple attempts before the one that killed him, and that she stood to gain nearly two million dollars in life insurance while carrying on an affair. But financial motive doesn't explain the psychology. Plenty of people want out of marriages with money at stake. What makes someone decide killing is the answer?Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines the internal logic of partners who allegedly choose murder over leaving. With over three decades working with both victims and perpetrators of violence, Scott breaks down what makes this choice feel rational to the person making it.We analyze the language prosecutors allege Kouri used—feeling "stuck" and "trapped," believing it would be "better if Eric died." We examine what that framing reveals about how someone in this mindset perceives their options and their spouse.We look at the method. Poisoning requires sustained deception, repeated attempts, watching suffering without intervening. It's not impulsive—it's calculated. Forensic experts call this "proactive staging" where the murder method becomes the alibi. What type of personality chooses this approach?And we examine the alleged performance that followed. Writing a children's book about grief. Appearing on television as a mourning mother. Performing widowhood publicly while allegedly knowing the truth.

Okay, so President Trump spoke for basically two business days, and Miranda, Ben Ferguson, and Salena Zito are here to translate what mattered and what was just… noise. They hit the economy, tariffs, taxes, housing, healthcare, and whether any of this is going to change what you feel at the grocery store next week. Then it gets spicy: the Olympics discourse spiral, why people are over politics infecting everything, and the right's very messy civil war over Candace Owens. Also, Miranda may or may not have accidentally taken out Karen Bass with a cold. Allegedly. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Kouri Richins trial raises a question that goes beyond the courtroom: why would someone allegedly choose murder when divorce is always an option?Prosecutors allege Richins poisoned her husband Eric with fentanyl, that she made multiple attempts before succeeding, and that she stood to collect nearly two million in life insurance while having an affair. The facts are damning if proven. But the psychology is what makes this case resonate—the internal logic that allegedly made killing feel like the rational choice.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers Live to break down the psychology of partners who choose murder over leaving. With thirty years of experience working with violent offenders, Scott examines what makes this choice feel justified to the person making it.We analyze the language prosecutors allege Kouri used in describing her marriage—feeling "stuck" and "trapped," believing things would be "better if Eric died." What does that framing reveal about perception and justification?We examine the method. Poisoning isn't rage—it's calculation. It requires planning, patience, and the ability to watch suffering without stopping it. Multiple alleged attempts means multiple decisions to continue. What psychology sustains that pattern?And we look at the performance prosecutors allege followed: the children's book, the TV appearances, the public grief. How does someone perform mourning for a death they allegedly caused?Join us live for expert psychological analysis of one of the most disturbing aspects of domestic homicide—the mindset that makes murder feel like a solution.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Caleb Flynn, 39, a former worship pastor and American Idol contestant from Tipp City, Ohio, has been charged with the murder of his wife, Ashley Flynn, 37, following a multi-agency investigation that includes the FBI and Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation.Ashley Flynn was found shot twice in the head in the master bedroom of the couple's home on Cunningham Court in the early hours of February 16th, 2026. Her husband called 911 reporting a home invasion. Police deployed K-9 units and a drone searching for a suspect. No suspect was found.According to the criminal complaint, prosecutors allege Flynn shot Ashley with a 9mm handgun and staged the scene to mislead officers — leaving the garage door open, the center console of his truck open, and creating what investigators described as deliberate misdirection. A key detail in the affidavit: the side door to the garage that an alleged intruder supposedly used was blocked by a large refrigerator that would have required physical movement to open.Flynn was arrested February 19th and charged with one count of murder, two counts of felonious assault with a deadly weapon, and two counts of tampering with evidence. He pleaded not guilty at his February 20th arraignment and was held on $2 million bond with no contact ordered with his minor children.Ashley Flynn was a seventh-grade volleyball coach, substitute teacher, and deeply active member of the Tipp City faith community. She was eight days from her 38th birthday. Her family released a public statement expressing confidence in the arrest. A GoFundMe for her daughters surpassed $96,000 in 48 hours. A planned public celebration of life was replaced by a private service after Flynn's arrest.The preliminary hearing is set for February 26th.

It doesn't leave bruises. It doesn't leave evidence a prosecutor can photograph. It leaves something worse — marks on how you think, how you see yourself, and whether you trust your own mind. Millions of people are living inside this right now. Most of them don't have a word for it.According to witnesses who spoke with investigators, Michael McKee allegedly threatened to kill Monique Tepe, allegedly strangled her, and allegedly forced sex on her during their seven-month marriage. There is not a single police report. No documented complaint. No restraining order.In the first of a 5-part educational series, we define coercive control — the pattern of domination that millions of people experience without bruises, without documentation, and without anyone on the outside recognizing what's happening. We break down the mechanisms: isolation, surveillance, financial control, weaponized intimacy, and the systematic erosion of identity. We explain why victims don't recognize it while it's happening. And we explain why most U.S. states still don't treat it as a crime.This series uses the Tepe case as connective tissue — but the real subject is every person listening who recognized themselves in this episode.#TrueCrimeToday #CoerciveControl #MoniqueTepe #MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #TepeCase #DomesticViolence #InvisibleAbuse #TrueCrimeNews #AbuseRecognitionJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Colin Gray is on trial for second-degree murder — not because he pulled a trigger, but because prosecutors say he put the weapon in his son's hands and ignored every warning that followed. His son, Colt Gray, allegedly walked into Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia on September 4, 2024 and opened fire, killing two students and two teachers and wounding nine others in the deadliest school shooting in Georgia history. Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts and up to 180 years in prison.The prosecution's case is built on a timeline that is difficult to look away from. An FBI-flagged threat investigation in 2023 where deputies warned Colin to keep his son away from firearms. A Christmas gift months later — a Sig Sauer M400 AR-style rifle, along with ammunition, tactical accessories, and unrestricted bedroom access. A shrine to the Parkland shooter found in the teenager's room. A counseling request where Colin described his son as volatile and angry. A text from Colt to his father weeks before the shooting that allegedly read: "Whenever something happens, just know the blood is on your hands." And when law enforcement arrived at Colin's home after the shooting, prosecutors say he met them in the garage and said two words without being prompted: "I knew it."This case follows the landmark Crumbley convictions in Michigan — the first time parents were held criminally responsible for a mass school shooting carried out by their child. But Colin Gray's charges go further. Second-degree murder, not manslaughter. A legal theory built on cruelty to children resulting in death. If a Georgia jury convicts, it won't just continue the Crumbley precedent — it will fundamentally escalate it. This episode breaks down the case, the timeline, and what this trial means for parental accountability in America.#ColinGray #ColtGray #ApalacheeHighSchool #ApalacheeShooting #SchoolShooting #ParentalAccountability #CrumbleyPrecedent #WinderGeorgia #TrueCrime #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two versions of the same family. One told to a judge. One allegedly lived by the girl who's now dead.On November 7th, 2025, Anna Kepner—an 18-year-old cheerleader from Titusville, Florida—was found dead under a bed on the Carnival Horizon cruise ship. Wrapped in blankets. Covered with life vests. Her death was ruled mechanical asphyxiation. Her 16-year-old stepbrother, who shared that cabin, is now the sole suspect.Under oath, Anna's stepmother described the three teenagers sharing that room as "best friends" and "the Three Amigos." But Anna's ex-boyfriend told reporters a different story: he claims the stepbrother was obsessed with her. He alleges that nine months before the cruise, the stepbrother climbed on top of Anna during a FaceTime call and ran when confronted.Custody hearings revealed the stepbrother had been in therapy for over a year. A travel advisor recommended separate rooms for the step-siblings. That recommendation was apparently overruled. On the night before Anna's body was found, her ex-boyfriend alleges the youngest sibling in that cabin was locked out—and heard yelling, chairs thrown, and the stepbrother screaming at Anna.The adults' cabin was directly across the hall. Shauntel Hudson testified she last saw the teens at 7:30pm. Nearly sixteen hours passed before anyone checked on Anna.This episode examines the psychological traps of blended families—the pressure to present harmony, the confirmation bias that filters out concerning behavior, and why children often suppress their own distress to avoid breaking the family narrative. People outside the household allegedly saw patterns. The custody-battling father raised alarms. The ex-boyfriend reported obsessive behavior. But the family sailed off on vacation anyway.The stepbrother appeared in sealed federal juvenile proceedings on February 6th, 2026. Anna's father confirmed he was arrested and released to a guardian. He told reporters he was "pissed off."Anna was supposed to graduate in May. She planned to join the Navy. She got a night no one checked on her until it was too late.#AnnaKepner #CarnivalHorizon #CruiseShipDeath #BlendedFamilyDynamics #FBIHomicide #TrueCrime #CustodyHearing #RedFlags #CarnivalCruise #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
