The Adelson Family Fallout: What Did Harvey Know & Who's Next to Face Justice? With Donna Adelson convicted and Wendy under growing scrutiny, one question remains: what about Harvey Adelson? The patriarch of the family sat silently through his wife's trial, his face betraying little. But how much did he know about the plot to murder Dan Markel? And how much responsibility does he bear for the fallout now consuming his family? In this segment of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Bob Motta joins to explore Harvey's role and the broader implications for the Adelson family. Was he a passive bystander, or did he knowingly enable the conspiracy? Did he simply turn a blind eye to his wife and children's actions, or was he part of the planning from the beginning? The conversation also examines the devastating impact on the Markel family, who continue to fight for access to Dan's children, as well as the systemic issues exposed by the case. The Adelson saga is not just about on e murder — it's about power, control, and the lengths some families will go to in order to maintain both.

 Is Wendy Adelson Next? Damning New Evidence in the Dan Markel Murder Plot With Donna Adelson convicted, attention is shifting to her daughter, Wendy. For years, Wendy has been at the center of speculation in the murder of her ex-husband, Dan Markel. Now, new testimony and text messages presented in court have raised even more questions about what she knew — and when. In this segment of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Bob Motta analyzes the evidence that could put Wendy in the crosshairs of prosecutors. From Luis Rivera's testimony tying her closer to the plot, to her suspiciously timed drive-bys of the crime scene, to her immunity agreements on the witness stand — the pieces are stacking up. The panel debates whether prosecutors now have enough to move forward with charges against Wendy. Is she a co-conspirator, or was she shielded by the actions of her family? And what role will her prior sworn testimony play if she's brought to trial? This case is far from over. With each new trial, more evidence surfaces, and Wendy's actions look increasingly difficult to explain away.

Ellen Greenberg Mystery & Donna Adelson Verdict: Shocking True Crime Revelations In this powerful edition of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels, we dive deep into two of the most disturbing and high-profile true crime cases in America today. First, we revisit the mysterious death of 27-year-old Philadelphia teacher Ellen Greenberg. Found with 20 stab wounds, including multiple to the back of her neck and head, Ellen's death was inexplicably ruled a suicide. We walk through her final day, analyze her fiancé Sam Goldberg's infamous 911 call, examine the suspicious door lock evidence, and highlight the shocking failures in the police investigation — including the lack of fingerprinting and the rushed apartment cleanup. With political pressure and prosecutorial pass-offs stretching this case out for 14 years, the Greenberg family is still demanding the justice that's been denied to them for more than a decade. Then we turn to Florida, where the Adelson family saga has rocked the true crime world. Donna Adelson has now been convicted in the murder-for-hire plot that ended the life of Florida State law professor Dan Markel. With the guilty verdict in place, the spotlight shifts to her daughter Wendy and husband Harvey. Were they active participants, silent enablers, or simply too close to walk away? Defense attorney and podcaster Bob Motta joins the discussion to analyze Donna's trial, Wendy's damning testimony, and Harvey's passive presence as the family unravels under the weight of the conspiracy. From Philadelphia to Tallahassee, these stories reveal what happens when justice is delayed, when evidence is ignored, and when family power and connections are wielded against the truth. Join the conversation, share your thoughts, and demand accountability with us.

Donna Adelson GUILTY: Inside the Verdict That Rocked the Markel Murder Case After years of speculation and investigation, Donna Adelson has been found guilty in the murder-for-hire plot that ended the life of Florida State law professor Dan Markel. Prosecutors argued that the Adelson family conspired to eliminate Markel so Donna's daughter, Wendy, could relocate her children to South Florida. In this segment of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, defense attorney and podcaster Bob Motta joins to unpack the verdict. What evidence sealed Donna's fate? How did the jury interpret her courtroom demeanor? And why did her defense strategy collapse in the face of overwhelming circumstantial evidence? From wiretapped conversations to incriminating text messages, the prosecution built a powerful narrative that placed Donna at the center of the conspiracy. The courtroom strategy to dress her as a “sweet grandmother” failed, as her behavior came across to jurors as manipulative rather than sympathetic. This verdict is a milestone in the long-running Markel case, but it may also open the door to further prosecutions. With Donna convicted, all eyes now turn to Wendy and Harvey Adelson. Will they be next?

Will Donna Adelson's Testimony BURN THE WHOLE FAMILY DOWN? Most defendants avoid the witness stand. Donna Adelson is running toward it. Even before her trial began, word spread that Donna intends to testify in her own defense. That's almost unheard of — and almost always dangerous. Because once you're in that witness box, you lose control. Prosecutors get to ask the questions. Jurors get to scrutinize your every move. For Donna, the risks are massive. The state has: Her airport arrest with one-way tickets to Vietnam, a non-extradition country. Recorded calls with her son Charlie after his conviction, dripping with consciousness of guilt. A narrative that every other conspirator has already been convicted, leaving Donna as the final piece. So why testify? Maybe it's overconfidence. Maybe it's control. Maybe it's Donna being Donna — the same woman who, in emails, told her grown daughter how to live her life and fought to keep her grandchildren close at any cost. Defense attorney Bob Motta explains why this decision is so high-stakes. Could Donna connect with jurors and humanize herself? Or will arrogance, control, and desperation bleed through and sink her case? This is the moment that could define the entire trial. Because when jurors remember this case, they won't just recall the charts or the witnesses — they'll remember Donna on the stand, trying to talk her way out of being branded the mastermind behind Dan Markel's murder.

Check Out The SHOCKING Emails That Could Convict Donna Adelson: EXPOSED! Donna Adelson walks into court in a cardigan, playing the role of a sweet grandmother. But prosecutors say her own words tell a very different story. The emails Donna sent to her daughter Wendi during the custody battle with Dan Markel reveal a matriarch obsessed with control. They show her pushing strategy, telling Wendi how to act, even floating a $1 million offer to convince Dan to allow relocation of the children. When that didn't work, prosecutors argue, Donna turned to something far darker. This is why those emails are devastating in court. They strip away the act and show jurors the Donna behind the mask: A mother inserting herself into every fight. A woman gathering money to bend outcomes. A family orbiting around her will. Defense attorney Bob Motta explains why these communications matter so much. Unlike witnesses, emails don't lie, they don't fumble, they don't spin under cross-examination. They just sit in black and white, revealing a decade-long pattern of manipulation. The Adelson trial is about murder, yes — but it's also about power. How one woman's grip extended over her children, over their lives, and ultimately, prosecutors say, over the decision to eliminate Dan Markel. In this segment, we break down how prosecutors will use Donna's own words to show motive, control, and conspiracy — and how the defense can possibly fight back. This isn't just about a grandmother in court. This is about the matriarch of a family prosecutors say turned loyalty into leverage, and control into tragedy.

Why It Took 11 Years To Bring Donna Adelson To Justice: The SHOCKING TRUTH REVEALED The road to the Donna Adelson trial has been long — 11 years long. Dan Markel was murdered in 2014, and since then, we've seen every other player in the conspiracy convicted: the hitmen, the middlewoman Katherine Magbanua, and Donna's son Charlie. So why did it take more than a decade for Donna herself to finally face a jury? Prosecutors needed time. They had to lock down the other convictions, secure sworn testimony, and build the kind of airtight case you only get when every piece of the puzzle is in place. And now, just as Donna faces trial, her defense tried a bold move: subpoenaing her own daughter, Wendi Adelson, to testify. Wendi's lawyers fought back, and the judge quashed it. Wendi will not be forced to testify for her mother's defense. The symbolism here is powerful: Wendi refuses to take the stand for Donna. Charlie, already convicted, still wants to testify for his mother. Jurors will see that split. A daughter keeping her distance, a son with nothing left to lose still showing loyalty. It raises a haunting question: what does silence say when it comes from your own blood? Defense attorney Bob Motta joins to break down the legal chess match behind this decision. What did Donna's team hope to gain by forcing Wendi on the stand? Why did Wendi fight so hard to avoid it? And how will jurors interpret the fractured family dynamic that's been dragged into the open before opening arguments even begin? This trial is about more than evidence — it's about loyalty, silence, and survival.

Donna Adelson's Crazy VS 12 SANE Jurors: What Happens Next? The Donna Adelson trial is finally here — and before the first witness takes the stand, the most important part of the entire case is already happening: jury selection. Prosecutors call it voir dire, the process of questioning potential jurors to uncover bias, prejudice, or hidden agendas. Defense attorneys call it their single best chance to shape the outcome of a case. In a trial this high-profile, with more than a decade of media coverage and multiple family members already convicted, finding an impartial jury is close to impossible. Florida's sunshine laws have made this process transparent in a way most trials never are. Cameras are rolling. The public can watch attorneys on both sides trying to pick 12 strangers who will decide whether Donna Adelson — accused of orchestrating the murder of her former son-in-law, Dan Markel — will spend the rest of her life in prison. What makes this even more fascinating is the broader context: Dan Markel's murder (2014) sparked years of trials. The hitmen are already serving time. Katherine Magbanua, the go-between, is behind bars. Charlie Adelson, Donna's son, is serving life. Now, it's Donna's turn. But everything begins here, with the jurors who will weigh the evidence. Defense attorney Bob Motta (host of Defense Diaries) breaks down why voir dire matters, what strategies both sides are using, and how transparency could change the dynamic in ways nobody expects. This isn't just jury duty. This is 12 strangers deciding the fate of the matriarch prosecutors say held the family together — and tore Dan Markel's life apart.

The Delphi Case They Don't Want You to See Richard Allen's Legal Battle The Delphi murders remain one of the most haunting true crime cases in America — but the conviction of Richard Allen is not the end of the story. In this unflinching conversation with defense attorney and Defense Diaries host Bob Motta, we examine every layer of the case: the appeal process, the prison conditions that pushed Allen to the brink, the questionable evidence presented at trial, and the personal toll on his family. We explore why “bridge guy” may not be the killer, how witness descriptions don't match the defendant, and why the “unspent round” ballistic evidence could be one of the weakest links in the state's case. We dig into the role — and absence — of Kathy Allen at trial, the strategic decisions that shaped the defense, and the broader implications for justice when high-profile cases become political pressure cookers. This is the Delphi case without the sound bites — a deep dive into the facts, the legal strategy, and the human cost. Whether you believe Allen is guilty or innocent, the details here will challenge what you think you know. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #BridgeGuy #TrueCrime #JusticeSystem #AppealProcess #BobMotta #KathyAllen #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Human Cost of the Delphi Case: Kathy Allen Speaks Out Richard Allen's conviction in the Delphi murders didn't just send him to prison — it sent him hundreds of miles away, to Oklahoma, far from his wife and legal team. Officially, prison transfers happen for many reasons. Unofficially, they can make mounting an appeal much harder. In this conversation, we focus on Kathy Allen — the woman who's been cut off from her husband for years, who appeared in the recent documentary to humanize a man many have already condemned. Defense attorney Bob Motta explains why she was never called to testify, and why he believes her presence could have made a difference in the jury's perception. This is the human side of the Delphi case — the part where the legal fight intersects with personal loss, where strategy meets heartbreak, and where the ripple effects of a conviction extend far beyond the defendant. #DelphiMurders #KathyAllen #RichardAllen #PrisonTransfer #TrueCrime #JusticeSystem #HiddenKillers #AppealProcess #BobMotta #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Delphi's Most Controversial Evidence — Unpacked by Bob Motta For years, the image of “bridge guy” has been the face of the Delphi murders — a grainy figure walking toward the victims, captured in the final moments of their lives. But how sure are we that bridge guy is the killer? And how certain is the state that he's Richard Allen? In this discussion, Bob Motta and I break down the witness descriptions, none of which mention Allen's most obvious physical trait — his short stature. We dig into the “unspent round” ballistic evidence, the missing chain of custody documentation, and the questionable science used to link it to Allen's gun. From the audio claims (“gun racking” sounds) to the absence of physical proof tying bridge guy to the crime, this segment challenges the core evidence in the state's case. If these points don't hold up under appellate review, the implications for the Delphi conviction are huge. #DelphiMurders #BridgeGuy #RichardAllen #TrueCrime #Ballistics #UnspentRound #WitnessTestimony #JusticeSystem #AppealProcess #BobMotta Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Coerced Confessions in Delphi: Bob Motta Weighs In Richard Allen's so-called “confessions” in the Delphi murders weren't made in a police interrogation room. They were made after months of extreme isolation, cut off from his wife, under conditions that defense attorney Bob Motta describes as “passive coercion.” In this segment, we explore the reality of those prison conditions — 23 hours a day in a cell, relentless verbal harassment, and the kind of mental strain that can push anyone toward a breaking point. We discuss how Allen's mental state deteriorated to the point where he made bizarre, contradictory statements — including admitting to crimes that never happened. Motta explains why these conditions matter in the appeal process, how courts evaluate whether a confession is voluntary, and why isolation tactics are so dangerous in pretrial detention. This is a sobering look at how “protective custody” can blur into psychological punishment, and what that means for justice in a high-profile case like Delphi. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #PrisonConditions #CoercedConfession #TrueCrime #MentalHealth #JusticeSystem #AppealProcess #HiddenKillers #BobMotta Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Next Chapter in Delphi Appeal Deadlines, Errors & What's Coming The Delphi murders shocked the nation, but the story is far from over. Richard Allen may have been convicted of killing Liberty German and Abby Williams, but his legal fight is only beginning. In this exclusive interview, defense attorney and Defense Diaries host Bob Motta takes us inside the appeal process — the deadlines, the legal filings, and the strategy his team believes could turn this case on its head. We cover what a “motion to correct errors” really means, why “harmless error” is the state's favorite shield, and how appellate lawyers decide which trial mistakes are worth fighting over. This is the inside look at the post-conviction legal battlefield that most true crime coverage ignores — the part that happens after the cameras leave the courtroom. If you think a conviction means the case is closed, think again. We dig into the possible grounds for appeal, from pretrial rulings to evidentiary exclusions, and explore whether the court's decisions denied Richard Allen a fair trial. Whether you believe he's guilty or innocent, the stakes in this appeal couldn't be higher — because if the verdict doesn't hold up, the entire case could be back in play. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrime #JusticeSystem #BobMotta #AppealProcess #CourtCase #LegalStrategy #TrueCrimeCommunity #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

We dig into the possible grounds for appeal, from pretrial rulings to evidentiary exclusions, and explore whether the court's decisions denied Richard Allen a fair trial. Whether you believe he's guilty or innocent, the stakes in this appeal couldn't be higher — because if the verdict doesn't hold up, the entire case could be back in play. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrime #JusticeSystem #BobMotta #AppealProcess #CourtCase #LegalStrategy #TrueCrimeCommunity #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Father Who Saved Daughter From Repeated Predator In Arkansas Is Charged By State Description: In a state that claims to protect families and value justice, a father now finds himself facing a murder trial for doing what the courts failed to do: protect his child. Aaron Spencer acted when no one else would—when the predator who had been accused of sexually abusing his 14-year-old daughter was not only released but allegedly came back for her. And for his actions, the state of Arkansas is charging him with second-degree murder. Defense attorney Bob Motta returns to outline why this case matters far beyond one family or one courtroom. In this conversation, we explore how this case has exposed systemic failures—from weak bail policies to baffling prosecutorial decisions. We look at Arkansas's stand-your-ground and defense-of-others laws, and why they should apply. And we ask the deeper question: is this prosecution about justice—or about protecting a broken system from scrutiny? With public outrage growing and the Arkansas Supreme Court already forced to strike down a sweeping gag order, the spotlight is now on a DA's office that seems more concerned with silencing criticism than seeking truth. If a predator walks free and a parent gets charged for stepping in, what does that say about the values of the people making these decisions? This episode pulls no punches. The facts are shocking. The implications are terrifying. And if justice doesn't course-correct soon, it's not just Aaron Spencer who stands to lose—it's every family who still believes the system is supposed to protect them. #AaronSpencer #ArkansasJustice #BobMotta #TrueCrimeAlert #ChildSafety #HiddenKillers #FatherVsSystem #SelfDefenseLaw #DAOverreach #PublicOutrage Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Arkansas DA Is Protecting Child Predators By Prosecuting A Father Who Took Out Daughter's Attacker Description: What happens when the people who are supposed to prosecute predators instead turn their attention to the parents trying to stop them? In this explosive episode, we examine the disturbing implications of the case against Aaron Spencer, the Arkansas father who shot and killed Michael Fosler—the man accused of sexually assaulting and kidnapping his daughter. Defense attorney Bob Motta argues that this isn't just an overreach by prosecutors—it's a betrayal of public trust. Fosler had already been arrested on 43 felony counts including rape, grooming, and child pornography involving Spencer's 14-year-old daughter. Yet he walked out of jail on a $5,000 bond and went right back to contacting her, ultimately leading to her disappearance the night Spencer tracked down and fatally confronted him. Instead of thanking Spencer for saving his daughter, the Arkansas DA charged him with second-degree murder. Bob breaks down why this prosecution feels less like justice and more like protection for predators. He outlines the legal mechanisms that could—and should—shield Spencer under Arkansas's self-defense and stand-your-ground laws. And he asks a hard question the state doesn't seem eager to answer: why are they more invested in punishing a desperate father than preventing the next victim? If you're angry, you should be. If you're confused, you're not alone. This is a case where the system looks broken—and very few seem willing to fix it. #ProtectKidsNotPredators #AaronSpencer #TrueCrimeNews #ArkansasDA #HiddenKillers #BobMotta #StandYourGround #JusticeSystemFailure #ProsecutorialInjustice #ChildProtectionNow Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

OUTRAGE In Arkansas: DA Says Dad Who Saved His Daughter From Predator THEY RELEASED Is Murderer! Description: The outrage is real—and it's growing. In this jaw-dropping installment, defense attorney Bob Motta returns to break down how an Arkansas District Attorney is prosecuting Aaron Spencer, a father who intervened when his teenage daughter was allegedly abducted by a 67-year-old predator the state had already arrested once—and then released. The same man accused of grooming, sexually abusing, and repeatedly contacting Spencer's daughter was allowed to walk free. And now that father is the one facing trial. We dig deep into the DA's logic—or lack thereof. Why would prosecutors target the parent trying to stop the cycle of abuse instead of the predator? What message does this send to every other family trying to trust the system? Bob explains how the charges appear to be not just legally misguided, but morally bankrupt. He also details how the facts of the case support a clear legal defense: Aaron Spencer acted in defense of another, as protected under Arkansas law. This episode is a rallying cry. A warning. And a reminder that when justice fails this badly, it's not just one family at risk—it's all of us. If Aaron Spencer can be prosecuted under these circumstances, no one who defends a child is safe from becoming the state's next target. #AaronSpencer #BobMotta #ArkansasDA #HiddenKillers #JusticeFailed #PredatorProtected #TrueCrimeNews #ProsecutorialOverreach #ChildSafety #SelfDefenseLaw Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Why Is Arkansas Charging A Father Who Saved His Daughter From Kidnapper With Murder? Description: When a 67-year-old predator with a history of sexually abusing a minor walks free on a low bond—and then reoffends—the system is supposed to protect the victim, not punish the parent. But in Arkansas, Aaron Spencer is now facing second-degree murder charges after confronting and fatally shooting Michael Fosler, the man who allegedly abducted and assaulted his 14-year-old daughter. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins us to unpack why the state of Arkansas is going after a father who did what most would consider heroic: saving his child's life when no one else would. In this episode, we examine the moment everything changed for the Spencer family. We break down the facts of the case, Arkansas's stand-your-ground and self-defense laws, and the alleged predator's criminal history. Fosler was facing 43 felony charges related to the sexual abuse and grooming of Spencer's daughter. Released on a mere $5,000 bond, he continued contacting her, ultimately leading to the confrontation that ended his life. So why is the state treating Spencer like a criminal instead of a parent pushed past his limit? Bob Motta explores the prosecutorial overreach, the legal strategy, and the glaring double standard at play. If justice is supposed to serve the innocent, this case raises serious concerns about whose side the state is really on. #AaronSpencer #ArkansasJustice #BobMotta #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeTalk #StandYourGround #JusticeForFamilies #ChildPredator #FatherVsSystem #SecondDegreeMurder Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Case Against Bryan Kohberger Legal Truth, Psychological Breakdown & the End of a Fantasy Stargazing. That was Bryan Kohberger's alibi. Not a streaming timestamp. Not a witness. Just... stargazing. In this final installment of our 4-part conversation with defense attorney Bob Motta, we go deep into the absurdity of the defense strategy, the overwhelming weight of the forensic evidence, and how Ann Taylor ultimately did what she was hired to do: save a life, not sell a fantasy. Bob dissects what would've happened had the case gone to trial with only the sheath as evidence. Could it have introduced reasonable doubt? Maybe. But with GPS data, phone pings, Amazon purchases, and Kohberger's own inconsistencies — that doubt collapsed. This wasn't a case with one smoking gun. It was a case with an entire arsenal. We also explore how one reckless early statement from Ann Taylor — calling her client “factually innocent” — fueled months of conspiracy theories and gave pro-Kohberger supporters just enough to cling to. Bob explains why that move may have done more harm than good. And finally, we reflect on where this leaves the families — especially Alivea Goncalves, who Bob predicts may one day become a major force in victim advocacy. Because sometimes tragedy births purpose. This episode is the closure. The full circle. The final nail in the defense fantasy.

The Appeal Myth & Legal Reality of the Kohberger Plea Is there any way Bryan Kohberger could appeal his guilty plea and sentencing? Defense attorney Bob Motta says flat out: no. In this detailed breakdown, we cut through the noise, debunk the social media myths, and break down the cold, hard legal truth about what happens after a plea — and what doesn't. Kohberger waived his right to appeal. That matters. And while technically post-conviction filings could still come years down the line, they're unlikely to go anywhere. Motta explains the difference between direct appeals, post-conviction relief, and what's actually possible under Idaho law — especially given the state's unusual restrictions on insanity defenses. We also dive into the strategic moment when Ann Taylor, Kohberger's lead attorney, likely shifted her focus from “prove innocence” to “save his life.” Because when you're staring down a mountain of evidence — DNA on a sheath, phone pings, online purchases — your job as a defense lawyer is no longer to fight the inevitable. It's to keep your client off death row. This segment is essential for anyone still wondering “what if?” about Kohberger's sentence. Spoiler: there's no magic exit ramp.

Kohberger's Family, the Fallout & the Unchosen Victims What happens when the accused killer is your child? In this sobering segment, defense attorney Bob Motta joins us to talk through one of the least-discussed — but most devastating — aspects of the Kohberger case: the collateral damage to his family. We examine the heartbreak of Kohberger's parents and siblings — not to excuse, but to understand what it means when your loved one becomes a national symbol of evil. Bob walks us through other cases where families were blindsided by unimaginable crimes, and what it does to a parent who once held hope for their child — only to watch them become a monster. We also explore Kaylee Goncalves' mother's powerful recognition that even Kohberger's family has been destroyed. Because when someone commits an act this horrific, the stain doesn't stop at the courtroom door. It follows bloodlines. It ruins lives far beyond the immediate crime. From there, we tackle the overwhelming reach of this tragedy — not just on the victims' families, but on friends, classmates, teachers, and a nation that still can't wrap its head around why. And as Bob reminds us, there is no “why” that will ever make sense. This episode is for those grappling with the human cost of unthinkable crimes — and what happens to the families left behind, on both sides of the aisle.

Alivea Goncalves's Statement & Kohberger's Cold Demeanor In this gripping segment, defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down the moment that stopped the courtroom cold: Alivea Goncalves's searing victim impact statement directed at Bryan Kohberger. Coming after deeply emotional remarks from other families, Alivea's words stood out as defiant, personal, and soul-shaking — taking back power from a man who tried to strip it away. Motta dissects not only the legal parameters surrounding victim impact statements, but also what makes Alivea's address unique: it wasn't just cathartic, it was tactical. She spoke directly to Kohberger, something not always permitted under Idaho law. And as Bob notes, Judge John Judge let it ride — and the impact was undeniable. We also explore Kohberger's demeanor throughout sentencing — how he sat emotionless, eerily calm, even at times smirking during moments of unimaginable grief. What does that reveal about who he is? And what does it say about how people like him process human pain? Bob pulls from decades of experience, including insights from his own father's representation of John Wayne Gacy, to explain why men like Kohberger — like Gacy — simply don't break. They don't feel. And they never explain why. If you're looking for analysis that cuts through the courtroom optics and straight into the psychological rot underneath, this conversation delivers.
