The 44 Checks That Could Convict Donna Adelson | Hidden Paper Trail Exposed How do you pay a woman who doesn't work for you? Easy—just write forty-four checks after a murder. In this explosive episode, Tony Brueski and legal expert Eric Faddis unravel the damning paper trail linking Donna Adelson directly to Katherine Magbanua, the alleged go-between in the murder-for-hire plot that ended Dan Markel's life. Every single check was personally signed by Donna. Every single payment came after Dan's murder. And they all mysteriously stopped after an FBI undercover sting operation. Coincidence? Not likely. Eric Faddis dissects the legal impact of this financial evidence, how prosecutors frame it as consciousness of guilt, and whether the defense can realistically claim Donna was just being generous or blindly signing off on shady bookkeeping. This is more than just check fraud—this is motive with a memo line. Follow the money, and you just might follow the conspiracy straight to the top.

Donna Adelson Trial Preview — Defense & Prosecution Tactics The trial of Donna Adelson — matriarch of the family linked to the murder of Florida State law professor Dan Markel — is about to begin, and it's already shaping up to be one of the most dramatic courtroom battles of the year. In this Hidden Killers special, Tony Brueski and defense attorney/former prosecutor Eric Faddis combine two hard-hitting conversations to examine both sides of the legal fight: Donna's startling consideration of testifying in her own defense, and the prosecution's likely strategy to convict her. First, we explore why Donna might be willing to take the stand — a move most defendants in major murder trials avoid. Is it a bluff? A calculated attempt to control the narrative? Or simply Donna's belief that she can persuade a jury better than anyone else? Eric explains the legal risks, how the defense might try to limit her exposure on cross-examination, and what the prosecution will be ready to hit her with — from financial records to coded phone calls to her one-way ticket to Vietnam. Then, we shift to the state's playbook. With three co-conspirators already convicted, prosecutors will likely lean heavily on the money trail to Katherine Magbanua, Donna's deep involvement in the custody dispute with Markel, and the infamous $1 million “relocation offer.” We discuss how the state will frame motive, means, and opportunity, and how the defense might counter by portraying Donna as an over-involved grandmother rather than a mastermind. #DonnaAdelson #DanMarkel #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #EricFaddis #TrialStrategy #ProsecutionPlan #WitnessStand #FloridaCrime #MurderTrial Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Inside the Prosecution's Case Against Donna Adelson With three co-conspirators already convicted in the Dan Markel murder case — including her son Charlie — Donna Adelson is now the next alleged link in the chain to face trial. Prosecutors will need to convince jurors that the 73-year-old wasn't just aware of a conspiracy to kill Markel, but actively participated in it. In this Hidden Killers episode, Tony Brueski and Eric Faddis discuss what the prosecution's strategy might look like: leveraging hard-to-explain financial transactions to convicted co-conspirator Katherine Magbanua, highlighting Donna's deep involvement in the custody dispute with Markel, and presenting the $1 million “relocation offer” as evidence of her willingness to go to extreme lengths. Eric outlines how prosecutors may also use jail calls with coded language, the Vietnam one-way ticket, and the established conspiracy convictions of other players to strengthen their case. At the same time, the defense will likely push to frame Donna as a peripheral, sympathetic figure caught up in family turmoil. #DonnaAdelson #DanMarkel #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #EricFaddis #MurderTrial #ProsecutionStrategy #AdelsonFamily #TrialTactics #FloridaCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Why Donna Adelson Might Take the Stand in Her Murder Trial As jury selection begins in the Donna Adelson trial, one of the biggest pretrial bombshells is her reported willingness to testify in her own defense. The 73-year-old matriarch of the Adelson family faces charges of first-degree murder, conspiracy, and solicitation in connection with the killing of FSU law professor Dan Markel — and testifying could expose her to devastating cross-examination. In this Hidden Killers segment, Tony Brueski and defense attorney/former prosecutor Eric Faddis dissect what this decision could mean. Is it a strategic bluff? A calculated move to control the narrative? Or simply Donna's belief that she can charm or talk her way through the jury's doubts? Eric explains the risks, the limited control defense counsel has over a client's choice to testify, and how prosecutors will be ready with a paper trail of payments, coded phone calls, and the one-way Vietnam trip to challenge her credibility. The conversation also explores how the defense might try to limit her exposure on the stand and frame her as a protective — if over-involved — mother rather than a conspirator. #DonnaAdelson #DanMarkel #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #EricFaddis #TrialStrategy #WitnessStand #DefenseTactics #MurderTrial #TestifyingRisks Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Bryan Kohberger Targeted in Prison — Could It Last Forever? Bryan Kohberger's life behind bars is shaping up to be as tense and volatile as his upcoming trial. In this Hidden Killers special, Tony Brueski and defense attorney/former prosecutor Eric Faddis combine two in-depth conversations to reveal the full scope of Kohberger's prison reality — from organized harassment through the ventilation system to the looming possibility of spending the rest of his life in solitary confinement. We examine reports that fellow inmates at Idaho Maximum Security Institution have been using the facility's ventilation to direct threats and taunts straight into Kohberger's cell — allegedly in shifts, around the clock. Eric explains how common (and legal) this kind of targeting is, the Eighth Amendment questions it raises, and why prison staff rarely intervene unless credible threats of violence are imminent. From there, we dive into the long-term outlook: how high-profile inmates like Kohberger become permanent targets, why crimes against young women carry a special stigma behind bars, and the dangerous incentives for other inmates to attack someone with his level of notoriety. Could solitary last forever? Who decides when it ends? And what happens if Kohberger is moved into general population? We also explore the limited legal recourse once the courts are done, the survival strategies inmates sometimes attempt, and why, for Kohberger, there may be no “safe” option at all. #BryanKohberger #Idaho4 #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #PrisonLife #EricFaddis #SolitaryConfinement #HighProfileInmates #PrisonPolitics #PrisonHarassment Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Could Kohberger Ever Be Safe in General Population? Solitary confinement can be a temporary measure — or a permanent sentence within a sentence. For Bryan Kohberger, accused of killing four University of Idaho students, the decision to keep him in protective isolation or move him into general population could mean the difference between survival and a quick, violent end. In this Hidden Killers segment, Tony Brueski talks with defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis about how long solitary can last, who makes that decision, and the prison politics driving it. Eric explains why crimes like Kohberger's — especially those involving young female victims — carry a permanent target inside prison, and how some inmates see taking out a high-profile prisoner as a path to infamy, respect, or revenge. We examine survival strategies in this environment, from gang alliances to exploiting mental health vulnerabilities, and why certain “outs” — like transfers or mental health unit placement — can actually increase the danger. The conversation also touches on the limits of legal intervention once a case is closed, and the bigger question: what does it say about our system that inmate safety decisions are made almost entirely behind closed doors? #BryanKohberger #Idaho4 #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #SolitaryConfinement #PrisonPolitics #EricFaddis #PrisonSurvival #HighProfileInmates #PrisonLife Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Bryan Kohberger Targeted 247 Through Prison Vent System High-profile defendants face dangers behind bars that most of us can't imagine — and for Bryan Kohberger, accused of the Idaho college student murders, those dangers are already here. In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski talks with defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis about reports that inmates at Idaho Maximum Security Institution are using the prison's ventilation system to direct threats and taunts straight into Kohberger's solitary confinement cell — around the clock, in shifts. We break down how common — and how legal — this kind of organized harassment is, what protections prisons are obligated to provide, and where the line is between “prison life” and “cruel and unusual punishment.” Eric explains the realities of limited staffing, inmate ingenuity, and the Eighth Amendment considerations that come into play when harassment tips toward credible threats of violence. We also explore whether Kohberger's defense has any realistic options to address the situation, the parallels to other notorious inmates, and the uncomfortable truth that for many, Kohberger's discomfort is more satisfying than concerning. #BryanKohberger #Idaho4 #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #PrisonLife #EricFaddis #SolitaryConfinement #PrisonVentSystem #LegalAnalysis #PrisonHarassment Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

THIS Legal Failure Is Putting Your Kids at Risk! Why YOU NEED To Demand Change NOW! How does a man like Andrew McGann move from district to district, facing red flags and disturbing allegations, only to land in another classroom? How does he end up the suspect in a brutal double homicide just days before he was scheduled to start teaching again? And how is that story not rare? In this full-length conversation, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski on Hidden Killers to break down what's gone catastrophically wrong in our nation's school systems. Across four deep segments, we expose the legal cracks, cultural cowardice, and systemic failures that allow predatory teachers to keep slipping through. We start with the collapse of mandatory reporting, where laws exist but accountability doesn't. Then we pull the curtain back on how districts “pass the trash”—quietly pushing out problematic employees with no record or warning. Faddis explains how internal investigations are used not to protect children, but to protect institutions from lawsuits. We explore the liability-first culture that paralyzes schools from acting even when patterns emerge. And we close with the reforms that must happen if we're ever going to stop seeing headlines like the one out of Devil's Den. This is not a conspiracy. This is happening — in your state, in your district, maybe even in your kid's school. If you care about transparency in education, this conversation is essential. Watch the full breakdown and share it — because silence is what keeps these predators protected. Subscribe for the full Classroom Cover-Up series and ongoing true crime analysis with real experts.

We explore the liability-first culture that paralyzes schools from acting even when patterns emerge. And we close with the reforms that must happen if we're ever going to stop seeing headlines like the one out of Devil's Den. This is not a conspiracy. This is happening — in your state, in your district, maybe even in your kid's school. If you care about transparency in education, this conversation is essential. Watch the full breakdown and share it — because silence is what keeps these predators protected. Subscribe for the full Classroom Cover-Up series and ongoing true crime analysis with real experts.

Reform or Repeat — What Needs to Change NOW To Protect Kids From Dangerous Teachers We've exposed how predators get passed from district to district, protected by law and apathy. Now—it's time to fix it. In our final segment, Eric Faddis turns the lens on reform. What policy changes, laws, and protections can break the cycle? We explore proposals like: Mandatory national misconduct database for educators Timely cross-state reporting of resignation or misconduct Criminal penalties for administrators who conceal abuse Mandatory visual documentation in classrooms for transparency We also confront the cultural resistance: fear of teacher shortages, union backlash, and budget constraints. Eric argues that real change requires legal accountability, community outrage, and public pressure that outlasts headlines. If you're ready for solutions—not more excuses—this episode lays them out in sharp, actionable detail. Then we close with the hard truth: until the system is restructured around kids, not careers, we're just preparing the ground for the next tragedy.

Liability vs. Justice — Why Schools Protect Predators Over Students! By now you know the cracks in the system. But what drives schools to ignore them? Hint: it's not protecting kids. In Part 3, Eric Faddis dives deep into the culture of liability protection that empowers cover-ups. Districts prioritize image and insurance premiums, not student safety. Internal investigations become bureaucratic buffers instead of truth-seeking safeguards. Talent gets rehired; adults get protected; kids get endangered. Explore how union contracts, reputation fears, and well-meaning—but compromised—administrators contribute to systemic failure. Eric also discusses how these self-protective practices discourage staff from reporting misconduct and exclude accountability. We break down why this isn't just administrative inertia—it's baked into the legal incentives. When risk outweighs righteousness, kids lose every time. If you're fed up with excuses and want to understand exactly why the system shields predators, this episode cuts straight to the truth.

The School HR Emails You Won't See About "Passing The Trash"! And Why It Matters If a teacher gets caught in an investigation—why can they still get hired elsewhere? Welcome to the epidemic of “passing the trash.” In Part 2, Eric Faddis walks us through the horrifying reality: when allegations surface, many districts quietly let problematic teachers resign under vague terms like “personnel issues.” Because they didn't file formal complaints or mandate reporting, those red flags vanish. The teacher walks into a new district with a clean résumé and no paper trail. Research shows that the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) explicitly prohibits rehire of teachers with known abuse records—but almost 40 states have yet to implement related policies.  Eric explains why administrators choose self-preservation over safety and how, in many states, districts are legally allowed to keep misconduct off official records—so long as no criminal charges were filed. Parents aren't warned, students aren't protected, and predators stay on the move. This is how Andrew McGann, the Devils Den suspect, bounced from district to district with no red flag—until tragedy struck. If you've ever wondered how someone like that wasn't stopped before, this episode lays it bare. Watch, share, and start demanding reform.

System Failure — Why “Mandatory Reporting” Isn't Protecting Our Kids In School You might believe that when a teacher raises alarm, the system responds. But the truth is far darker. In this opening episode, legal expert Eric Faddis exposes why mandatory reporter laws—meant to protect children—so often fail in practice. Across every U.S. jurisdiction, educators are mandatory reporters. By law, they must act the moment they reasonably suspect child abuse or neglect. They're protected from legal consequences if they report in good faith, even if it turns out to be a false alarm. And yet—schools regularly sideline these cases. They "investigate internally" rather than alert law enforcement or Child Protective Services. They treat serious, albeit unproven, concerns as HR issues instead of safeguarding crises. Giving a teacher the benefit of the doubt becomes a shield for predators. This episode peels back the curtain on how internal investigations are weaponized to avoid legal liability and bad press—not to protect students. We ask: what happens when mandated reporting becomes optional by omission? What recourse exists when districts are legally—but not morally—allowed to remain silent? Eric breaks down the difference between policy and enforcement. He explains how fear of reputation damage or lawsuits keeps schools from doing what's legally—and ethically—required. If you're tired of hearing “teachers aren't protected” while seeing kids remain unsafe, hit play—and let's begin pushing back.

The Kouri Richins Case EXPOSED - The Jailhouse Letter and the War Over Narrative Description: She wrote a grief book for her kids. Then prosecutors say she wrote a jailhouse letter to her mom instructing how to lie on the stand. In this episode, Eric Faddis helps us dissect one of the strangest pieces of evidence in the Kouri Richins case—the infamous “Walk the Dog” letter. Was it witness tampering? A poorly executed cover-up? Or, as the defense claims, just a draft of a fictional story? We explore how this single piece of writing could radically shift how jurors interpret Kouri's credibility—and whether it signals guilt or desperation. Faddis brings prosecutorial insight into how this letter fits into a pattern: the narrative of a woman allegedly trying to reframe her husband's death, control public perception, and rewrite reality. We also explore how the court has handled similar “fiction vs. confession” claims in high-profile cases—and what the jury is likely to believe. It's not just about whether she poisoned her husband. It's about whether she tried to script her innocence in real time—and if the jury will see through it.

Is There Enough Solid Evidence To Convict Kouri Richins Of Poisoning Her Husband For Insurance Cash? Description: It's the prosecution's headline claim: Kouri Richins killed her husband to collect a $2 million life insurance payout. But behind that bold narrative lies a big question—does the state have the hard evidence to prove it? In this episode, Eric Faddis, a former prosecutor turned defense attorney, joins Tony Brueski to assess whether the case against Kouri is as airtight as it sounds—or whether it's built on inference, not forensic certainty. We dig into the alleged failed poisoning attempt on Valentine's Day, suspicious Google searches, financial fraud, and the toxicology report that confirmed a lethal dose of fentanyl. But even with all that, is it enough? Faddis explains what jurors need to see to convict someone of first-degree murder—and how the defense might use the complexity of Kouri's financial history, the circumstantial timeline, and a lack of eyewitnesses to argue for doubt. Could this be another media-hyped trial that loses traction in the courtroom? Or is the digital trail and financial motive enough to seal the deal? We break it down step-by-step in one of the most dissected poison cases in recent memory.

Could Kouri Richins Walk Free Because Of Her Deceased Dealer Description: The alleged drug dealer is dead. The victim is dead. And now, key parts of the prosecution's case against Kouri Richins might be collapsing under the weight of missing witnesses. In this episode, criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to explore how the death of the man believed to have supplied the fentanyl used to kill Eric Richins could complicate the path to conviction. Without testimony or cross-examination, and with hearsay limitations blocking some statements from entering court, the prosecution's narrative faces serious structural risks. We break down why this isn't just a technicality—it's a critical gap in the case. Without the dealer, prosecutors can't directly tie Kouri to the source of the lethal dose. And when you're relying on circumstantial connections, every missing link matters. Eric Faddis explains how the defense will seize this opportunity to frame the case as speculative, thin, and built more on suspicion than solid proof. Could the loss of this witness be enough to create reasonable doubt? And could the state's strongest weapon—its motive narrative—start to look more like a theory than a prosecutable truth? The stakes are high. The witnesses are gone. And the question is real: could Kouri Richins walk because the case is fading before it even starts?

Ellen Greenberg Investigation DELAYED & MOVED AGAIN In yet another shocking twist, the long-stalled investigation into the death of Ellen Greenberg has been delayed and transferred—again. Ellen was found dead in 2011 with 20 stab wounds, including deep injuries to the back of her neck and skull, in a locked Philadelphia apartment. Initially ruled a homicide, her manner of death was quietly changed to suicide after a closed-door meeting between the Medical Examiner and police. Since then, the case has bounced like a legal pinball between the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office, the Pennsylvania Attorney General, and multiple counties—with no one willing to take meaningful action. In this episode of Hidden Killers, former prosecutor and defense attorney Eric Faddis returns to break down the latest stall tactic and what this new referral really means. Is this yet another strategic delay to avoid reopening a now-infamous case? Or is there a chance—however slim—that someone is finally going to act? We dig into: Why the AG kicked the case back to the DA—again How each agency continues to evade accountability What the 2025 reversal by the original medical examiner should have triggered Whether this latest move is just another way to bury the truth And why this case is rapidly becoming one of the most blatant examples of institutional failure in American criminal justice Ellen's family has waited over 14 years. The public has been misled. And the system, once again, is doing what it does best when cornered: pass the buck. If you think justice delayed is justice denied, this episode will hit hard.

Aaron Spencer Case: Parental Instinct vs. Premeditated Force: A Defense Attorney's Playbook How far can a parent go to protect their child—and when does that line become a crime? In Part 2 of our Aaron Spencer deep dive, we flip the script and step into the defense's war room. Spencer's legal team says he acted out of necessity. Prosecutors say it was murder. But the jury? They're going to have to decide whether this was justifiable force… or personal revenge with deadly consequences. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis returns to explore how this case could—and likely will—play out at trial. What are Spencer's strongest defenses under Arkansas law? How does the presence of a no-contact order, a prior history of alleged sexual abuse, and the discovery of the victim in Fosler's truck shape the legal argument? And how dangerous is that reload moment—the one detail that could shift the entire perception of whether this was about protection… or punishment? We also dive into jury strategy: what kind of jurors are likely to sympathize with Spencer? What emotional arguments work—and which could backfire? And what role will the testimony of Spencer's daughter play in either exonerating him… or sealing his fate? This episode peels back the tactical side of the case. The courtroom chess. The human drama behind the legal filings. Because this isn't just a question of law—it's a test of how the justice system handles instinct, trauma, and the deep, terrifying fear that your child might not make it home unless you intervene. This case is far from over—but the battle lines are being drawn. #AaronSpencerCase #SelfDefenseOrMurder #TrueCrimeAnalysis #JusticeForVictims #ParentalInstinct #CriminalDefenseStrategy #ArkansasTrial #EricFaddis #HiddenKillersPodcast #LegalBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

How does the presence of a no-contact order, a prior history of alleged sexual abuse, and the discovery of the victim in Fosler's truck shape the legal argument? And how dangerous is that reload moment—the one detail that could shift the entire perception of whether this was about protection… or punishment? We also dive into jury strategy: what kind of jurors are likely to sympathize with Spencer? What emotional arguments work—and which could backfire? And what role will the testimony of Spencer's daughter play in either exonerating him… or sealing his fate? This episode peels back the tactical side of the case. The courtroom chess. The human drama behind the legal filings. Because this isn't just a question of law—it's a test of how the justice system handles instinct, trauma, and the deep, terrifying fear that your child might not make it home unless you intervene. This case is far from over—but the battle lines are being drawn. #AaronSpencerCase #SelfDefenseOrMurder #TrueCrimeAnalysis #JusticeForVictims #ParentalInstinct #CriminalDefenseStrategy #ArkansasTrial #EricFaddis #HiddenKillersPodcast #LegalBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

James Craig on Trial: The Poison Plot, The Mistresses & The Deepfake Cover-Up This is the full story so far—and it's more chilling than fiction. In this extended, no-holds-barred breakdown, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us from inside the courthouse to walk through everything unfolding in the trial of Colorado dentist James Craig, accused of slowly poisoning his wife Angela to death with cyanide, arsenic, and eyedrops… all while juggling secret affairs, financial ruin, and a public image of suburban perfection. But the story doesn't stop at the murder. Because according to prosecutors, Craig didn't just plan Angela's death—he kept plotting after she was gone. From jail, he allegedly tried to recruit fake witnesses, write up suicide scripts, and even asked his daughter to create a deepfake video to make it look like Angela wanted to die. One informant says he even tried to arrange a hit on the lead detective. This episode brings it all together: The forensic case: poison timelines, Google searches, Amazon orders, and chilling hospital visits The motive: mistresses, sugar babies, financial desperation, and a life Craig allegedly wanted to escape The emotional core: testimony from Angela's daughters, who say their mother was planning for the future—not planning to die The cover-up: handwritten jailhouse letters detailing fake alibis, burner phones, and character roles for imaginary friends With no smoking gun and no direct eyewitness, this case hinges on what prosecutors say is a “pattern of intent”—and what the defense insists is all circumstantial. Eric Faddis gives us the legal strategy, the courtroom temperature, and a brutally honest view of how this case is really landing with jurors. This is the full story so far—from poison to plot twists, and everything in between. #JamesCraigTrial #AngelaCraig #TrueCrimeDocumentary #MurderTrialCoverage #CyanideMurder #DeepfakeSuicidePlot #CourtroomDrama #EricFaddis #DentistMurderCase #HiddenKillersPodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

James Craig Case: Poison, Premeditation & Prosecutorial Precision What happens when a trusted husband, a father of six, and a respected Colorado dentist is suddenly accused of killing his wife—with cyanide, eyedrops, and protein shakes? In Part 1 of this gripping two-part breakdown, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us from inside the courthouse to dissect the case the jury is still trying to wrap their heads around. The prosecution has laid out a chilling timeline: online orders for arsenic and cyanide, Google searches like “how to make murder look like a heart attack,” and hospital visits where Angela Craig mysteriously crashed—right after being alone with James. With no eyewitnesses, no surveillance video of a fatal act, and no dramatic confession, this is a case built entirely on digital footprints, emotional devastation, and one cold, calculated timeline. But is that enough? Eric Faddis walks us through the strategy unfolding in real-time—how prosecutors are methodically connecting Amazon carts, IV access ports, and digital forensics to paint a portrait of intent. He also breaks down how the defense is trying to poke holes in the chain of evidence and float the idea that Angela may have died by suicide. But with Angela's daughters testifying that their mother was optimistic and making future plans, the suicide theory may be dead on arrival. This episode sets the stage: Was this a clinical poisoning plotted by a man who wanted out of his marriage—or a tragic medical mystery that looks too neat to be true? Get the inside view from the courtroom—and decide for yourself. #JamesCraig #TrueCrimePodcast #MurderTrial #AngelaCraig #DentistMurderCase #CyanidePoisoning #CourtroomDrama #TrialAnalysis #EricFaddis #HiddenKillersPodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lovers, Lies & Letters from Jail: Inside the Mind of James Craig In Part 2 of our deep dive into the James Craig murder trial, things get even darker—and a lot more twisted. What started as a methodical poisoning case has now turned into a psychological autopsy of a man accused of not only murdering his wife—but scripting a fake version of her suicide from a jail cell. In this episode, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis returns to take us inside the courtroom and inside the mind of a man who allegedly couldn't stop scheming, even behind bars. We cover it all: — The emotional gut-punch of hearing James Craig's own daughter read a letter where he asked her to create a deepfake video of her dead mother — The bizarre witness-recruitment letters offering burner phones, cash, and free dental work — The sugar baby who testified Craig said he'd kill his wife if he could get away with it — The jailhouse plot to murder the lead detective on the case This isn't fiction—it's testimony. And it might be the most damning part of the prosecution's case. Why? Because Craig's alleged attempts to cover his tracks may have done more to prove guilt than the poisoning itself. We also examine how the defense is trying to survive the fallout. Is there any version of this where the jury sees Craig as panicked instead of predatory? And with no credible evidence of suicide, no real motive from Angela's side, and a defendant writing murder plots in longhand—what's left to believe? Eric gives us a boots-on-the-ground look at the emotional tone of the courtroom, how jurors are reacting, and where this trial is heading. This isn't just about what Craig may have done. It's about what he did next. #JamesCraigTrial #AngelaCraig #TrueCrimeDaily #MurderMystery #CraigTrialCoverage #JailhouseLetters #CourtroomTestimony #EricFaddis #HiddenKillersPodcast #DeepfakeMurderPlot Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Aaron Spencer Case: The Father, the Firearm, and the Felony, A Prosecutor's Dilemma What happens when the justice system fails to protect—and a father takes justice into his own hands? In this gripping first episode, we dive deep into the explosive case of Aaron Spencer, the Arkansas father and decorated military veteran now facing second-degree murder charges for fatally shooting Michael Fosler—a man accused of sexually abusing Spencer's teenage daughter. Fosler, despite 43 felony charges, was out on bond and allegedly in violation of a no-contact order the night Spencer tracked down his truck and found his daughter inside. Spencer made a split-second choice. Now he's facing decades behind bars. But was this murder… or justified protection? Joining me is Eric Faddis, former prosecutor and current defense attorney, who breaks down the prosecution's side of this legal firestorm. We unpack why the State decided to file charges despite overwhelming public support for Spencer, what the second-degree murder charge actually means under Arkansas law, and how prosecutors navigate the high-wire act of pursuing a case that looks like vigilante justice to some—and heroic parenting to others. We also explore the Arkansas Supreme Court's unprecedented intervention, after a sweeping gag order attempted to seal this case from public view. Spoiler alert: it backfired, big time. This isn't just a legal breakdown. It's a wake-up call. Because when victims don't feel safe and predators walk free, it's not a question of if someone will take matters into their own hands—it's when. Don't miss this opening deep dive into one of the most emotionally charged, morally complex, and legally combustible cases in the country right now. #AaronSpencer #ArkansasJustice #MichaelFosler #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeSystemFail #SelfDefenseLaw #SecondDegreeMurder #VigilanteJustice #HiddenKillers #EricFaddis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Aaron Spencer and the Shot Heard Across Arkansas: Justice or Justified? What happens when a father takes justice into his own hands—and the legal system turns its sights on him? This full-length episode combines both parts of our deep dive into the high-stakes, emotionally explosive case of Aaron Spencer, the Arkansas veteran and father charged with second-degree murder after fatally shooting Michael Fosler—the man accused of sexually abusing Spencer's teenage daughter. Despite facing 43 felony counts tied to child sex abuse, Fosler was out on bond. Then, one October night in 2024, Spencer finds his daughter missing—and then finds her in Fosler's truck. What happens next is fast, violent, and now the subject of national debate: Spencer chases the truck down, runs it off the road, confronts Fosler at gunpoint, and fires. Multiple times. Ending the threat—but launching a legal firestorm. In this episode, I'm joined by Eric Faddis, former prosecutor and criminal defense attorney, for a full-spectrum breakdown. In Part 1, we examine the prosecution's strategy: why the State moved forward with charges despite overwhelming public support, how the law defines second-degree murder in Arkansas, and what role the Arkansas Supreme Court played after a sweeping gag order tried to shut the case down. In Part 2, we shift to the defense—how Spencer's legal team will argue self-defense, defense of others, and heat-of-passion. We also tackle the biggest wildcard: the jury. Will they see a man trying to protect his child… or one who went too far? This is more than a trial—it's a stress test for our justice system. A case where morality, legality, and public outrage are all colliding in real time. #AaronSpencer #TrueCrimePodcast #SelfDefenseCase #ArkansasNews #MichaelFosler #JusticeOrVigilante #SecondDegreeMurder #ParentalProtection #HiddenKillers #EricFaddisBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Beyond Doubt? James Craig's Financial Ruin, Affair & Deadly Motives Exposed Episode Description: Dive into the high-stakes, intricate courtroom battle as both the prosecution and defense present their meticulously crafted narratives in the sensational James Craig murder trial. We meticulously analyze how prosecutors are weaving together a compelling circumstantial case, meticulously connecting disparate elements like overwhelming financial strain, a secret extramarital affair, and a desperate need for image control to establish a clear and undeniable motive, coupled with the means (poisoning) and a palpable consciousness of guilt. Eric Faddis, drawing on his extensive experience as a former prosecutor, will reveal the defense's critical strategies for planting seeds of reasonable doubt amidst the mounting and often chilling forensic evidence. We specifically examine the defense's implied theory that Angela may have taken her own life, assessing how likely it is that a jury will even entertain such a notion given the powerful counter-evidence presented by the state.
