Eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner died aboard a cruise ship. Her sixteen-year-old stepbrother has been identified as the suspect — not by police, not by the FBI, but through explosive court filings in a custody battle. The family acknowledges it. Witnesses describe aggression, chokeholds, and a dynamic the adults claim they never saw. And still: no charges. So what does this silence actually signal? Former prosecutor Eric Faddis explains why federal investigations move slowly, why cruise-ship deaths fall under complex jurisdictional rules, and what benchmarks investigators need before they pursue homicide charges involving a minor. We examine the digital trail (key-card logs, surveillance, onboard data), the fracture within the family, and how contradicting statements influence a prosecutor's strategy. Eric also walks through what a defense attorney would be doing right now behind the scenes — protecting a juvenile client, anticipating transfer hearings, and preparing for the moment charges finally drop. We discuss why custody documents are revealing more than the FBI, why investigators might be intentionally delaying charges, and what it means when a case hinges on both forensic evidence and family testimony. This case is quiet — too quiet — and Eric breaks down exactly what silence means in federal law. #AnnaKepner #CruiseShipCase #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #TonyBrueski #FederalInvestigation #LegalAnalysis #JusticeForAnna #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

2150 Proven You CAN Change I talk about a study with Psilocybin on mice brains proving that the brain can be rewired. I have long believed and in fact proven to myself that the human brain can be rewired without drugs if one has enough sincere motivation towards wanting to change as opposed to simply paying it lip service or wanting to take some sort of convenient effort-free shortcut.

Eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner died on a cruise ship. Her sixteen-year-old stepbrother is the suspect. Now the public is hearing two competing narratives: the parents describing a picture-perfect blended family, and outside witnesses describing aggression, chokeholds, and tension adults insist never existed. In this interview, former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke breaks down how investigators read these conflicting accounts. What signals truth? What signals narrative-protection? And how do you tell the difference between a family genuinely blindsided — and a family rewriting history? We explore the grandparents' “everything was fine” statements, the ex-boyfriend's drastically different perspective, the minimized reports of chokeholds, and the strange detail that sleeping arrangements were handled through a travel agent rather than the teenagers themselves. Stacy presses an important question: what does that say about the family's communication — and who was actually being considered? This is a breakdown of behavior, messaging, and the subtle cues investigators look for when tragedy fractures a family story. #AnnaKepner #CruiseInvestigation #RobinDreeke #FamilyDynamics #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #BehavioralAnalysis #JusticeForAnna #CrimeBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Eighteen thousand children are waiting for assessments to be carried out. Children's Minister Norma Foley has announced changes to tackle the back log. To discuss this Sinn Féin Spokesperson on Health David Cullinane.

Christian Cowan's journey to the top of the fashion world is anything but traditional. He opens up about applying to Central Saint Martins with a literal soup can instead of a standard portfolio and explains how a childhood obsession with insects helped him understand high fashion structures. He also shares the wild story of receiving a commission from Lady Gaga at just 18 years old while he was still a first-year student who barely knew how to ship a package. Now making his Broadway costume design debut with The Queen of Versailles, Christian discusses the challenge of translating high glamour into durable stage wear. He reveals details about touring Jackie Siegel's massive closet which features a stripper pole and round bed, and breaks down the technology behind the 3D printed vases on his Marie Antoinette costume. We also geek out over his love for animation, his collaboration with The Powerpuff Girls, and his desire to design for sci-fi films. Christian Cowan is a British fashion designer known for his vibrant and sculptural aesthetic. He launched his eponymous label in 2017 and has dressed global icons including Lady Gaga, Cardi B, and Miley Cyrus. He was a finalist for the CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund and has collaborated with brands like Cartoon Network and Adobe. The Queen of Versailles marks his Broadway debut as a costume designer.

Eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner was found dead aboard the Carnival Horizon — hidden under a bed, wrapped in a blanket, and partially covered with life vests. But the most shocking part of this case isn't what was found in that cabin. It's everything happening outside of it. Tonight on Hidden Killers, we dig into the emotional, chaotic, and deeply fractured family dynamics that defined Anna's life long before that cruise. What's emerging now is a portrait of a young woman caught between two households locked in years of conflict, resentment, secrecy, and trauma — a reality her friends and family say she never escaped. Anna's biological mother, Heather, released a raw and unfiltered TikTok video describing her struggles with addiction, depression, and the painful distance between her and her daughter. Her grandmother and uncle publicly accuse members of the paternal home of withholding the truth. Her ex-boyfriend claims Anna feared a stepsibling — the same 16-year-old who is now being referenced by major outlets as a suspect. The stepmother has invoked her Fifth Amendment rights. Custody filings are unraveling. The family is fracturing in real time. And Anna's father — the central figure across three marriages — remains virtually silent. This is not a simple tragedy. It's not a single incident. It's a collision of long-standing fractures, hidden tensions, competing narratives, and relatives taking their stories public as investigators try to cut through the noise. Every person close to Anna seems to be telling a different version of who she was, what she feared, and what really happened on that ship. Tonight, we step back and examine the full picture — the emotional landscape, the allegations, the clashing accounts, and the patterns investigators are now forced to untangle if they hope to understand the final hours of a teenage girl who never should have ended up hidden under a bed at sea. This is the story behind the story. This is the case everyone is talking about — and the one no one can agree on. #HiddenKillers #AnnaKepner #CarnivalCruise #TrueCrime #TonyBrueski #Investigation #FamilyDynamics #FBI #CruiseShipDeath #MaritimeCrime #Stepfamily Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner didn't just die on a cruise ship — she was killed. Her death certificate now confirms “mechanical asphyxia by another person(s),” with the manner officially ruled a homicide. Tonight, I break down the timeline of exactly what happened on the Carnival Horizon, how the evidence lines up, and why investigators are closing in on one specific window of time — and one specific person. In this deep-dive monologue, we cut through the noise, the family drama, the online chaos, and the TikTok meltdowns to focus on what the evidence actually says. Anna was placed in a cabin with a 16-year-old stepsibling she reportedly feared. Hours later, she was dead — wrapped, hidden under a bed, and covered with life jackets. This isn't speculation. This isn't rumor. This is the documented reality of the case. We walk through the decisions that led up to that night, the ignored red flags, the emotional collapse of the main suspect, the forensic truth of mechanical asphyxia, and the concealment behavior that tells investigators more than any interview ever could. This is the timeline as it stands now — what we know happened inside that cabin, how investigators are reconstructing the moments leading up to Anna's death, and why this case is tighter than the public realizes. Anna fought for her life. The evidence shows it. And soon, the truth will too.

Eighteen-year-old Natalee Holloway vanished during a senior trip to Aruba, a disappearance that captured international attention and reshaped the island overnight. Her family fought for answers with a level of visibility most grieving families could only dream of. But more attention doesn't always mean more truth. In Part 1 of our two-part deep dive, we revisit the night Natalee went missing, the investigation that unraveled almost immediately, and the media storm that turned her case into a global spectacle. This episode examines what the spotlight illuminated, and what it obscured, in a family's desperate search for their daughter. Want early access to every episode, all at once?

Thanksgiving dinner made it to the Quartermaine table--briefly--but then was whisked off to GH in the true holiday spirit. Although, it didn't look like there was enough food for more than five or six people. Luckily, Portia and Isaiah didn't want to fill up on food before they got down to business in her office, so that meant more turkey for everyone else. Meanwhile, Marshall and Stella have caused Trina to lose her appetite. Well, Curtis and Jordan could also be to blame for that. But the best news of the day is that Ned has recovered and is home! And Leo made an appearance!

Today's teens face a serious and growing danger when it comes to drugs. As parents, it's essential to talk openly with your children about the risks of drug use and the heartbreaking reality that a single bad decision can be fatal.

Eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner boarded the Carnival Horizon with her father, stepmother, and two stepbrothers for a Caribbean family vacation. It was supposed to be a week of sunshine and easy memories. But on the final morning of the trip, a housekeeper entered the teens' cabin and made a horrifying discovery. Anna was found dead under the bed, wrapped in a blanket and covered with life jackets.Investigators immediately began examining every detail of the family's final hours on board. Public reports have highlighted complex family dynamics, including claims from Anna's former boyfriend about a late-night video call before she died. Court documents also revealed that the FBI is actively reviewing evidence, but no one has been charged, and authorities have not publicly identified any suspect.Anna's paternal grandparents, who were on the cruise with the family, told ABC News that Anna and her 16-year-old stepbrother were extremely close and that he appeared devastated after her death.As investigators continue to piece together what happened inside that cabin, the case remains wide open. Was this a tragic accident, a moment of conflict, or something far more deliberate? With the FBI involved, answers may be coming, but for now, the mystery only deepens.What is your theory about Anna's final hours?

Eighteen years, a 14-metre-deep crater, a rebuilt brick façade, and a glass dome set to redefine Copenhagen's skyline Denmark's new Natural History Museum is almost ready.  In this episode, Michael Booth meets architect Claus Pryds, who was barely out of architecture school when he unexpectedly won the competition for the country's next great museum. What followed was a marathon of design, engineering and sheer perseverance that stretched across nearly two decades.  Michael and Claus dive into the wild story behind the museum: the setbacks, the breakthroughs, the impossible holes in the ground — and the thrill of watching a once-in-a-lifetime project finally rise to the surface. Opening in 2027, the museum will feature new worlds dedicated to Danish nature and Greenland and rumoured to have everything from dinosaurs to a Blue Whale skeleton.  Guest: Claus Pryds Host:  Michael Booth  Let's Talk Architecture is a podcast by Danish Architecture Center.

Eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner was found hidden under a bed on a cruise ship — in a cabin she shared with her own family. A younger sibling asleep feet above her. A stepbrother now designated a suspect. A stepmother invoking the Fifth Amendment. And a biological mother recording a viral thirteen-minute meltdown online, blaming everyone but herself. This isn't one tragedy — it's the implosion of two families at the exact moment investigators are trying to reconstruct what happened in that tiny cabin. Tonight, we break down what authorities are really dealing with: — What it means when a minor is labeled a suspect. — How keycard logs, cabin cameras, and Wi-Fi tracking narrow the timeline faster than anyone expects. — Why concealment done quietly — while people slept — tells investigators something very specific. — Why a parent invoking the Fifth raises red flags behind the scenes. — And how constant public accusation from family members can contaminate witnesses and confuse the case. To help us cut through the noise, we bring in retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer to walk through interview protocols with child witnesses, the meaning of a Fifth Amendment invocation in a juvenile death, and what investigators truly care about — evidence, not emotion. This case is still evolving, but one thing is clear: the truth inside that cabin is going to come out.

Eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner was found dead aboard the Carnival Horizon — concealed under a bed, wrapped in a blanket, partially covered with life vests. But as shocking as those details are, the real story of this case goes far beyond a single cabin on a cruise ship. In this extended deep dive, we unravel the complicated, chaotic, and emotionally explosive family dynamics surrounding Anna — a young woman caught between two deeply fractured households, each carrying years of turmoil long before the tragic events at sea. Anna's biological mother, Heather, took to TikTok in a raw, unfiltered emotional video, speaking openly about addiction, depression, distance from her children, and her years-long struggle to maintain a relationship with Anna. Meanwhile, Anna's grandmother and uncle publicly accuse members of the paternal household of withholding the truth. Her ex-boyfriend claims Anna was afraid of a stepsibling. And that stepsibling — a 16-year-old boy — is now described by major outlets as a suspect. The stepmother has invoked her Fifth Amendment rights. Custody filings are unraveling. The family is splintering in real time. And the father at the center of all three marriages remains nearly silent. This is not a simple story. It is not a clean tragedy. It is a case where every branch of Anna's family tree is cracking under the weight of years of conflict, unresolved trauma, and allegations made publicly by family and friends who say she was never truly safe. Tonight, we look at the family chaos that shaped Anna's life, the voices now shouting from every side, and the patterns investigators are forced to sift through as they work to uncover what really happened on that cruise ship. This is the full picture — the story behind the story. #HiddenKillers #AnnaKepner #CarnivalCruise #TrueCrime #TonyBrueski #Investigation #FamilyDynamics #FBI #CruiseShipDeath #MaritimeCrime #Stepfamily Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Is having boyfriend embarrassing? Are we living in an era of "heteropessimism"? Are women over marriage? These questions have gone viral in recent weeks as the country continues to grapple with changing gender norms and the effect the right wing radicalization of men has had on women's' attitudes toward marriage and child bearing. This week, a new study showing that, for the first time, female high school seniors were less interested in marriage than male seniors provoked an online debate about whether this was a consequence of growing male conservatism, or alternatively, whether men were facing "bigotry" from women who were making broad and essentialist claims about men. Eighteen year old Zohran volunteer deemed "hot girl for Zohran" by the New York post found herself on one side of the argument, while Drop Site news journalist Ryan Grim found himself on the other. Bad Faith brought them together to hash it out: Whose fault is the male loneliness epidemic, and if the root of the problem is economic, how should the left express sympathy for victims of the root cause without lacking sympathy for the female victims of misogyny?   Subscribe to Bad Faith on YouTube for video of this episode.

Steve's journey was marked by sheer graft and some brutal personal blows. His first five years were, in his own words, madness. Eighteen to twenty hour days, six days a week. Then came a messy divorce, COVID and throat cancer. The Founder Dependency Trap Like many founders, Steve found himself in the classic trap. Everyone relied on him to make every decision. He sought help because his sales team was struggling and he realised he needed to learn how to step out of the way so his business could run without him. The Uncomfortable Mentorship: Facing the Tormentor Steve brought in Marcus and very quickly discovered this was not a cosy training course. He describes it as counselling for sales, full of uncomfortable moments, direct questions, and role plays that forced him to confront his own habits. The turning point came when he learned to challenge and filter prospects properly. At first he thought it was rude to push back or walk away. In reality, detaching from the outcome stopped him wasting hours on buyers who were never going to buy. The Measurable Transformation The discomfort paid off. In spades. Efficiency: He went from putting in 100 percent effort to about 25 percent, yet was selling four times as much. Asset Growth: Between 2020 and 2024, while battling both COVID and cancer, the company's net worth grew from £750k to £2.5m. Profitability: Pre tax profit rose from nearly £200k to just under £500k. Final Win: He closed his career with a £1.7m order. As he puts it, he started selling paper yachts and ended selling a battleship. Personal Return: The negotiation skills he picked up even saved him hundreds of thousands in his divorce settlement. The Outcome: Freedom When he sold in February 2025, Steve felt absolutely floating. The win was not just financial. He had finally proved the business could run without him. If you are a founder trying to build a saleable asset and escape founder dependency, Steve's story is well worth your time. It is honest, hard won, and full of lessons for anyone walking a similar path.   Contact Steve on Linkedin

Some ghost stories chill you. Others make you question reality itself. t begins with a listener who nearly died as a child—her body still, her mind floating toward a blinding white light. When she finally gasped for air six minutes later, something inside her changed forever. From that moment on, she saw things others couldn't: phantom footsteps, bathroom doors that opened themselves, and a haunting that may have begun the night her grandfather died in her bed. Then—Laura from Halifax recalls a summer day camp unlike any other. One quiet, pale boy sat talking to empty air… until she asked who he was speaking to. What followed—his sudden trance and whispered answers, “Eighteen… nineteen…”—left her paralyzed with fear. From out-of-body experiences to ghostly déjà vu, from possessed children to eternal road accidents—these aren't campfire tales. They're proof that sometimes, the line between life and death is only a heartbeat long. #RealGhostStories #HauntedHighway #GhostChild #PossessionStory #ParanormalPodcast #TrueGhostStory #CreepyEncounters #HauntedCanada #PhantomRider #AfterlifeProof #SupernaturalExperiences #GhostStoriesOnline Love real ghost stories?

The people of Stillwater, Oklahoma, have had enough. Hundreds gathered outside the Payne County Courthouse demanding accountability after Judge Susan Worthington allowed a violent sexual predator to avoid prison. Eighteen-year-old Jesse Butler, charged with eleven felonies including rape, attempted rape, and strangulation, received no prison time under Oklahoma's Youthful Offender Law. Despite partial video evidence and one victim requiring neck surgery, Judge Worthington ruled that Butler qualified for rehabilitation instead of incarceration. The potential 78-year sentence vanished, replaced by a single year of supervision, therapy, and a curfew. The decision ignited outrage across the state. Tribal victim services, survivors, parents, and students rallied together on the courthouse steps, chanting for justice and calling for Judge Worthington's removal. State lawmakers labeled the ruling “unacceptable” and vowed to review how the system failed so catastrophically. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, Tony breaks down the story that's shaken Stillwater to its core — how a judge's compassion turned into negligence, how leniency for violent predators endangers every community, and why the public's outrage might finally force real reform. We'll examine the judicial system that let this happen, the decades-long ties that bind small-town power networks, and the growing call to close legal loopholes that allow violent offenders to hide behind “youthful offender” status. This isn't about politics. It's about safety. Because when the system starts protecting predators instead of people, it's not justice anymore — it's failure in a robe. Watch the full breakdown and join the conversation in the comments.

A family's day at Sydney's Luna Park ended in flames when a Ghost Train fire killed seven people—including six children—but the last photograph taken before the tragedy has sparked theories of something far more sinister than an accident.IN THIS EPISODE: Some of the most unsettling of urban legends can take place in some of the happiest places on earth. Ghostly children swinging in a playground, phantom-like warriors coming out at night in beautiful Hawaii, but there's one I never heard of until just this morning that I had to look up… it has to do with a boy, a theme park, and a man with horns, (Damien and the Horned Man) *** In 1944 Dorothy Forstein came home from shopping and was attacked by an intruder, beat within an inch of her life.

(The Disappearance of Dorothy Forstein) *** SETI, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence is continually scanning the heavens on the lookout for life elsewhere in the universe.
