The COURT DECISION that's Dividing Families The families of the Idaho 4 murder victim's are unsatisfied with the plea arrangement made by prosecutor Bill Thompson. The Goncalves family felt that more information could've been obtained from Bryan Kohberger. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Bryan Kohberger is now fighting restitution payments to the families of the Idaho murder victims — claiming they already got their money from GoFundMe donations. The convicted killer's defense argues that because the families received public support, they've “suffered no economic loss” and that Kohberger, serving four life sentences, has no means to pay. We'll break down: Kohberger's latest court filing and strategy The families' response and what Idaho law allows Why this could spark public outrage New updates from inside prison The arrogance, the argument, and the aftermath — all right here on Crime Talk with Scott Reisch.
In his recent testimony before Congress, former Labor Secretary and ex–U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta doubled down on his long-criticized defense of the 2008 non-prosecution agreement that allowed Jeffrey Epstein to dodge federal sex-trafficking charges and serve barely a year in a cushy county jail. Acosta told the House Oversight Committee that at the time, he believed a federal trial would have been a “crapshoot” because of what he called limited cooperation from victims and thin evidence — a claim that directly contradicts later Justice Department findings showing that dozens of victims were ready to testify. He also denied having any knowledge that Epstein would be granted work-release, despite extensive records showing the arrangement was approved during his watch. His tone was clinical and detached, as if the systemic betrayal of dozens of trafficked minors was just another bureaucratic footnote.Lawmakers on both sides were incensed, with Democrats accusing Acosta of rewriting history and showing “zero remorse” for enabling one of the most notorious predators in modern American history. Even some Republicans privately admitted that his testimony came off as evasive and self-serving. Acosta tried to shift blame to subordinates and state prosecutors, but his own department's inspector general previously concluded that he exercised “poor judgment” and gave Epstein a sweetheart deal that “violated the spirit of the law.” For the victims who have spent years fighting for justice, Acosta's congressional appearance only confirmed what they already knew — that the powerful protect their own, even when it means selling out the powerless.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:House committee releases more Jeffrey Epstein documents | Fox News
Before the families could speak, Hollywood did. In a stunning October 2025 announcement, Lifetime confirmed that actor Miles Merry will play Bryan Kohberger in an upcoming dramatization of the Idaho student murders. The film, part of the network's long-running “Ripped From the Headlines” series, is already deep in pre-production — casting finalized, production crew set, and a release date likely locked. But the families of the victims? They were never asked. Never consulted. Never warned. This is Lifetime's formula: turn tragedy into prime-time content. They did it with Amanda Knox, Gabby Petito, and Chris Watts — all criticized for exploiting real people's pain. But the Kohberger case stands apart. There was no trial, no testimony, no motive revealed under oath. Kohberger pled guilty in July 2025, receiving four consecutive life sentences without parole. The record is silent — and into that silence, Lifetime will now write fiction. That's what makes this story so unsettling. Without verified facts, screenwriters must invent them: imagined conflicts, fictional flashbacks, emotional arcs, and even dialogue for the killer himself. None of it comes from evidence or sworn testimony — yet millions will watch and remember those scenes as if they were true. Alivea Goncalves, sister of victim Kaylee Goncalves, called it “really angering.” The families weren't informed. They learned from the headlines. To them, the victims are not characters, and their grief is not a plotline. This isn't about one network being evil — it's about the moral cost of entertainment that blurs the line between truth and storytelling. Because when a true crime story gets rewritten for television, it doesn't just distort memory — it replaces it. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #LifetimeMovie #TrueCrimeNews #KayleeGoncalves #XanaKernodle #MadisonMogen #EthanChapin #TrueCrimeCommunity #JusticeForTheVictims Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Why did Bryan Kohberger suddenly plead guilty after nearly two years of pretrial warfare? The answer might be more personal—and more psychological—than legal. In this breakdown, we explore how the revelation that Kohberger's sister, Amanda, was on the prosecution's witness list may have triggered a collapse in his carefully controlled defense. For a man driven by dominance, image, and manipulation, the prospect of family testifying against him may have cut deeper than any courtroom battle. We unpack: • The timeline between Amanda being listed and Kohberger's plea • What his control-obsessed behavior says about the psychology of his decision • How avoiding a trial may have spared his family—and preserved his own narcissistic narrative • The legal pressures: failed suppression motions, damning DNA rulings, and an inevitable death penalty trial • The psychology of narcissistic collapse and what it looks like when the mask slips Was it guilt, fear, or one last act of ego-driven control disguised as mercy? This is the deeper story behind Kohberger's plea—and what it says about him. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #KohbergerGuilty #CriminalPsychology #TrueCrimeBreakdown #KohbergerFamily #ControlAndCollapse #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalProfile #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

They kill. Then they smile for cameras, clock in for work, or go grocery shopping. In this chilling Hidden Killers investigation, we explore “The Performance of Normal” — the haunting calm that follows murder. Starting with Bryan Kohberger, who prosecutors say was seen casually shopping hours after the brutal Idaho student murders, we dive deep into the psychology behind that eerie stillness. Why do some killers seem completely composed after committing horrific crimes? From John List, who ate lunch next to his wife's body before vanishing for 18 years… To Dennis Rader (BTK), who left a Boy Scout camp to murder and came back by morning to flip pancakes for the troop. To Chris Watts, who went to work just hours after killing his pregnant wife and daughters. To Stephen McDaniel, who gave a TV interview about his “missing” neighbor — the same woman he had just murdered. To Colonel Russell Williams, a respected Canadian military commander smiling for charity photos days after taking a life. To Tyler Hadley, the Florida teen who killed his parents, then threw a party with their bodies hidden in the next room. To Susan Smith, the mother who tearfully begged for her children's return after drowning them herself. And Ian Huntley, the school caretaker who joined the search for two girls he had already murdered. This episode examines the psychology of composure — how killers weaponize calmness, and why society so often mistakes it for innocence. It's not just what they do. It's what they don't. Because sometimes, evil doesn't look like rage. It looks like control. It looks like “normal.”

Julia Cowley, a retired FBI profiler and the host of The Consult podcast, and I set out to discuss the University of Idaho murders and the killer of four college students, Bryan Kohberger. But something strange happened when we began discussing the survivors who were in the house.It was during a week when a beloved podcaster, friend, and researcher for this podcast died. In this emotionally charged bonus, we explore grief, trauma, and the importance of kindness within the true crime community and in life. Our conversation touches on how loss, children and age have changed the way we view true crime stories.NOTE: In July 2025, those roommates, Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke, broke their silence at Kohberger's sentencing in the murders of 20-year-olds Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, and 21-year-olds Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen.

The scientific report on the effects of media coverage on prospective jurors in Latah County examined the impact of pretrial publicity on the jury pool for the Bryan Kohberger case. Kohberger, accused of murdering four University of Idaho students, has been the subject of extensive media coverage, which has raised concerns about the potential bias among jurors.Key points from the report include:Media Influence: The report highlighted how pervasive media coverage can shape public perception, often leading to preconceived notions of guilt or innocence. This is particularly problematic in high-profile cases like Kohberger's, where intense media scrutiny can taint the jury pool.Survey Findings: A survey conducted by a trial consultant on behalf of the defense indicated that the more someone knew about the case, the more likely they were to believe Kohberger was guilty. This survey included questions that incorporated both true and false information to gauge the extent of misinformation and its effect on potential jurors.Pretrial Publicity: The report underscores the difficulty of finding unbiased jurors in Latah County due to the saturation of media coverage. It suggests that prospective jurors exposed to extensive pretrial information are more likely to have formed opinions about the case.Defense Strategy: The defense team used the survey data to argue for a change of venue, claiming that an impartial trial would be difficult to achieve in Latah County. They contended that the media coverage had created a presumptive bias against Kohberger, necessitating the trial to be moved to a different location to ensure fairness.Judicial Response: The court acknowledged the potential impact of media coverage on jurors and temporarily halted the survey to review its methodology and ensure compliance with non-dissemination orders. The defense argued that continuing the survey in other counties was crucial for a comparative analysis to determine an appropriate venue for the trial.These findings reflect the complex interplay between media coverage and the judicial process, emphasizing the need for careful consideration to maintain the integrity of the legal proceedings.(commercial at 7:41)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protomail.comsource:072224-Memorandum-Support-MCoV.pdf

The Dark Truth About Kohberger's Plea Deal Nobody Tells YouJoin Police Off the Cuff as they provide an in-depth analysis into the criminal psychology of suspects like Bryan Kohberger, diving deep into the complexities of each true crime story. This true crime episode will explore the details of the Idaho 4 case and more, fostering a deeper understanding within the true crime community. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Why did Bryan Kohberger suddenly plead guilty after nearly two years of pretrial warfare? The answer might be more personal—and more psychological—than legal. In this breakdown, we explore how the revelation that Kohberger's sister, Amanda, was on the prosecution's witness list may have triggered a collapse in his carefully controlled defense. For a man driven by dominance, image, and manipulation, the prospect of family testifying against him may have cut deeper than any courtroom battle. We unpack: • The timeline between Amanda being listed and Kohberger's plea • What his control-obsessed behavior says about the psychology of his decision • How avoiding a trial may have spared his family—and preserved his own narcissistic narrative • The legal pressures: failed suppression motions, damning DNA rulings, and an inevitable death penalty trial • The psychology of narcissistic collapse and what it looks like when the mask slips Was it guilt, fear, or one last act of ego-driven control disguised as mercy? This is the deeper story behind Kohberger's plea—and what it says about him. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #KohbergerGuilty #CriminalPsychology #TrueCrimeBreakdown #KohbergerFamily #ControlAndCollapse #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalProfile #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Bryan Kohberger is reportedly facing major challenges inside Idaho's maximum-security prison — but that's not the only controversy. Steve and Alivea Goncalves, father and sister of victim Kaylee Goncalves, say they're outraged over Lifetime's upcoming film Ripped From the Headlines, which dramatizes the University of Idaho murders without the families' consent. They call it “deeply upsetting and exploitative,” saying their loved ones are “not headlines or entertainment.” Meanwhile, reports suggest Kohberger is “struggling” behind bars, reportedly vocal about his rights and clashing with prison life.

This is the deeper story behind Kohberger's plea—and what it says about him. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #KohbergerGuilty #CriminalPsychology #TrueCrimeBreakdown #KohbergerFamily #ControlAndCollapse #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalProfile #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

As the authorities investigating the case continue to rule people and circumstances out as being part of what happened to Kaylee, Ethan, Xana and Madison, one alleged scenario continues to be part of the conversation: The Stalker theory.In this episode, we hear from Kaylee's dad who says that law enforcement told him that one of the roommates was targeted in the attack, but didn't specify which one. When you add all of this up, including who has been ruled out, it would seem that the investigators are seriously pursuing the stalker theory.Let's dive in!(commercial at 8:22)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/police-tell-idaho-victims-family-only-one-of-the-slain-students-was-the-target/ar-AA14xlKx?li=BBnbfcL
The scientific report on the effects of media coverage on prospective jurors in Latah County examined the impact of pretrial publicity on the jury pool for the Bryan Kohberger case. Kohberger, accused of murdering four University of Idaho students, has been the subject of extensive media coverage, which has raised concerns about the potential bias among jurors.Key points from the report include:Media Influence: The report highlighted how pervasive media coverage can shape public perception, often leading to preconceived notions of guilt or innocence. This is particularly problematic in high-profile cases like Kohberger's, where intense media scrutiny can taint the jury pool.Survey Findings: A survey conducted by a trial consultant on behalf of the defense indicated that the more someone knew about the case, the more likely they were to believe Kohberger was guilty. This survey included questions that incorporated both true and false information to gauge the extent of misinformation and its effect on potential jurors.Pretrial Publicity: The report underscores the difficulty of finding unbiased jurors in Latah County due to the saturation of media coverage. It suggests that prospective jurors exposed to extensive pretrial information are more likely to have formed opinions about the case.Defense Strategy: The defense team used the survey data to argue for a change of venue, claiming that an impartial trial would be difficult to achieve in Latah County. They contended that the media coverage had created a presumptive bias against Kohberger, necessitating the trial to be moved to a different location to ensure fairness.Judicial Response: The court acknowledged the potential impact of media coverage on jurors and temporarily halted the survey to review its methodology and ensure compliance with non-dissemination orders. The defense argued that continuing the survey in other counties was crucial for a comparative analysis to determine an appropriate venue for the trial.These findings reflect the complex interplay between media coverage and the judicial process, emphasizing the need for careful consideration to maintain the integrity of the legal proceedings.(commercial at 7:41)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protomail.comsource:072224-Memorandum-Support-MCoV.pdf
Why did Bryan Kohberger suddenly plead guilty after nearly two years of pretrial warfare? The answer might be more personal—and more psychological—than legal. In this breakdown, we explore how the revelation that Kohberger's sister, Amanda, was on the prosecution's witness list may have triggered a collapse in his carefully controlled defense. For a man driven by dominance, image, and manipulation, the prospect of family testifying against him may have cut deeper than any courtroom battle. We unpack: • The timeline between Amanda being listed and Kohberger's plea • What his control-obsessed behavior says about the psychology of his decision • How avoiding a trial may have spared his family—and preserved his own narcissistic narrative • The legal pressures: failed suppression motions, damning DNA rulings, and an inevitable death penalty trial • The psychology of narcissistic collapse and what it looks like when the mask slips Was it guilt, fear, or one last act of ego-driven control disguised as mercy? This is the deeper story behind Kohberger's plea—and what it says about him. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #KohbergerGuilty #CriminalPsychology #TrueCrimeBreakdown #KohbergerFamily #ControlAndCollapse #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalProfile #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

They kill. Then they smile for cameras, clock in for work, or go grocery shopping. In this chilling Hidden Killers investigation, we explore “The Performance of Normal” — the haunting calm that follows murder. Starting with Bryan Kohberger, who prosecutors say was seen casually shopping hours after the brutal Idaho student murders, we dive deep into the psychology behind that eerie stillness. Why do some killers seem completely composed after committing horrific crimes? From John List, who ate lunch next to his wife's body before vanishing for 18 years… To Dennis Rader (BTK), who left a Boy Scout camp to murder and came back by morning to flip pancakes for the troop. To Chris Watts, who went to work just hours after killing his pregnant wife and daughters. To Stephen McDaniel, who gave a TV interview about his “missing” neighbor — the same woman he had just murdered. To Colonel Russell Williams, a respected Canadian military commander smiling for charity photos days after taking a life. To Tyler Hadley, the Florida teen who killed his parents, then threw a party with their bodies hidden in the next room. To Susan Smith, the mother who tearfully begged for her children's return after drowning them herself. And Ian Huntley, the school caretaker who joined the search for two girls he had already murdered. This episode examines the psychology of composure — how killers weaponize calmness, and why society so often mistakes it for innocence. It's not just what they do. It's what they don't. Because sometimes, evil doesn't look like rage. It looks like control. It looks like “normal.”
New court documents show a bombshell twist in the Bryan Kohberger case: his sister Amanda Kohberger appearing on the prosecution's witness list just days before he accepted a plea agreement. Did the revelation force his hand? In this video, we dissect the timing, the strategy, and the family dynamics behind one of the most controversial legal turns in recent memory. We'll break down: The witness lists (prosecution + defense) and what they reveal Amanda's role and the 2014 incident involving her cell phone Why Kohberger's plea came so fast after the unsealing Reactions from the victim families and legal analysts

In the early morning hours of November 13, 2022, someone entered a house just off the University of Idaho campus in a brazen home invasion that left four University of Idaho students — Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves — dead.

In this gripping psychological breakdown, we go beyond the headlines and into the behavioral blueprint of Bryan Kohberger—the man convicted of murdering four University of Idaho students. Was he a psychopath? A narcissist? Or something more complicated? Join Tony Brueski on Hidden Killers as we pull apart the clinical language behind the internet's most overused labels. “Psychopath” and “narcissist” aren't just insults—they're technical profiles, rooted in years of forensic and psychological study. And in Kohberger's case, the question isn't just what he did… but why. What does his academic obsession with criminology reveal? What do prosecutors say about his movements before and after the crime? And what does his eerie silence in court actually mean—remorselessness or just legal strategy? We examine documented facts from court filings, affidavits, and verified reporting: • The infamous knife sheath with DNA • Cell phone records showing surveillance and signal gaps • Prosecutors' theory of forensic planning • Kohberger's alleged superiority complex and behavioral coldness Through the lens of expert frameworks—including the Hare Psychopathy Checklist and diagnostic criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder—we'll explore the traits the public finds chilling, and what they really mean. This isn't a character assassination. It's a forensic dissection of behavior, motive, and risk—delivered in Tony's signature style: fact-driven, emotionally grounded, and built for audiences who want more than just true crime drama. No speculation. No sensationalism. Just what the public record shows—and what psychology helps us understand.

**Escucha los episodios de Terrores Nocturnos de Octubre en exclusiva en Amazon Music www.amazon.es/terroresnocturnos Aquella madrugada de noviembre de 2022, el pequeño pueblo de Moscow, en Idaho, se convirtió en escenario de una pesadilla. Cuatro estudiantes universitarios fueron encontrados sin vida en su propia casa. No había señales claras de forzamiento, ni testigos, ni una explicación lógica. Durante semanas, la policía y la comunidad vivieron sumidos en el miedo y la confusión. Las redes sociales se llenaron de teorías. Se señalaba a compañeros, vecinos, incluso a desconocidos. Pero nadie imaginaba que el responsable estaba más cerca de lo que parecía. Bryan Kohberger, un joven estudiante de criminología, se convirtió en el principal sospechoso tras una serie de errores y rastros que él mismo dejó atrás.

In the face of unthinkable tragedy, Stacy Chapin, the mother of slain University of Idaho student Ethan Chapin, chose a path of grace over vengeance. This deeply moving commentary from Hidden Killers explores her powerful decision to not let Bryan Kohberger—the accused killer—define her or her family's story. Instead of focusing on the crime, Stacy and her family have channeled their grief into a powerful legacy, establishing scholarships and writing a book to honor Ethan's life. This episode is a tribute to the strength of the human spirit. It's about what happens after the crime—the difficult journey of healing, the importance of reclaiming a victim's memory, and the radical act of choosing peace in a world that demands outrage. We'll examine this unique approach to grieving and the profound impact it can have on survivors. This is a story of resilience, love, and the enduring power of a family's legacy.

What does life look like for Bryan Kohberger now that he's off the front page and locked inside one of Idaho's most restrictive prisons? In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we go inside the Idaho Maximum Security Institution—home to death row, long-term restrictive housing, and now, Bryan Kohberger. This is not general population. This is J Block. And the reality of Kohberger's existence there is bleak. We break down every confirmed detail of his day-to-day life: • 23 hours a day in a single cell • One hour of solo outdoor rec • Showers every other day • Movement only in full restraints • Commissary as his only “task” of the week • Surveillance on all calls, messages, and mail • Visitation through glass, if allowed at all Using official records from the Idaho Department of Correction and verified reporting, this is a deeply researched, fact-driven look at the institutional monotony, isolation, and psychological erosion that defines Kohberger's life today. This isn't a story of redemption, revenge, or rehabilitation. It's the slow, bureaucratic erasure of a man from public view—no longer a suspect, no longer a student, no longer in control. Tony Brueski guides you through this haunting portrait with the signature Hidden Killers voice: sharp, emotionally grounded, and relentlessly focused on truth over spectacle.

In this episode, Tony Brueski breaks down the latest twist in the Bryan Kohberger saga — one that has nothing to do with guilt, innocence, or trial evidence, but everything to do with the system that's supposed to hold everyone accountable. The Idaho Department of Correction has confirmed that the leaked prison video showing Kohberger inside his cell was authentic. The person responsible has been identified and is no longer employed. But the headline that's sparking national debate: Idaho State Police say no criminal charges will be filed. “Insufficient evidence,” they called it. But what does that really mean? In this deep-dive editorial, Tony exposes how this decision isn't just about one rogue employee — it's about the cracks forming in the walls of justice itself. Because when people inside the system start deciding which rules apply and which don't, the system stops being about law and order. It becomes about personal judgment. About vengeance dressed as justice. We'll unpack: Why the act technically didn't qualify as a criminal offense under Idaho law How this legal “gray zone” turns into a dangerous precedent for every inmate — and every citizen Why integrity behind prison walls matters just as much as the integrity of the courtroom The real meaning of “If they can do it to him, they can do it to anyone.” This isn't a defense of Bryan Kohberger. It's a defense of the rule of law. Because when power stops being restrained by principle, it stops being justice. Watch the full breakdown now, and decide for yourself — is this just a technicality, or a warning sign that the system is slipping? #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimePodcast #KohbergerVideo #JusticeSystem #PrisonLeak #IdahoDOC #RuleOfLaw Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

We examine documented facts from court filings, affidavits, and verified reporting: • The infamous knife sheath with DNA • Cell phone records showing surveillance and signal gaps • Prosecutors' theory of forensic planning • Kohberger's alleged superiority complex and behavioral coldness Through the lens of expert frameworks—including the Hare Psychopathy Checklist and diagnostic criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder—we'll explore the traits the public finds chilling, and what they really mean. This isn't a character assassination. It's a forensic dissection of behavior, motive, and risk—delivered in Tony's signature style: fact-driven, emotionally grounded, and built for audiences who want more than just true crime drama. No speculation. No sensationalism. Just what the public record shows—and what psychology helps us understand.
This week on Headline Highlights… There are big developments in Diddy's case as he's denied acquittal just days before sentencing.

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we pull back the curtain on the most misleading—and most dangerous—phase of any major crime story: the first 72 hours. Using the Bryan Kohberger case as a case study, Tony dissects how the earliest reporting on the University of Idaho murders quickly spiraled into misinformation, emotional panic, and public certainty based on little more than vague police statements and internet rumor. From “no threat to the community” to “unconscious person” to the infamous white Hyundai ask—almost everything the public believed in the first three days either changed or was clarified later. But by then, the narrative had hardened. In this longform breakdown, we expose how the fog of breaking news forms, why the media often isn't lying (even when the facts change), and how psychologically we cling to early stories even in the face of hard evidence. We explore the myths that formed—victims tied and gagged, the skinned dog rumor, the DoorDash driver, stalker theories—and show exactly what was reported when and why the facts didn't stick. This is not a hit piece on the press. It's a sharp, fact-driven guide to how public perception gets hijacked during active investigations, and why it matters—especially in a case as emotionally loaded and legally complex as the Kohberger trial. If you followed this case from the beginning, you need to hear this. Because chances are, some of what you still believe was never true to begin with.
The Kohberger case just took another shocking turn. Confidential details from Bryan Kohberger's case files have reportedly been leaked — sparking questions of privacy, legality, and ethics. Scott Reisch breaks down what this means for the defense, the prosecution, and the integrity of the Idaho case.
