Big Breakdown: Karen Read on Trial: Psychologist, FBI & Defense Attorney Tear It All Down In this explosive episode of the Hidden Killers Podcast, host Tony Brueski is joined by a powerful expert panel to break down the psychological and legal layers of the Karen Read trial. Featuring licensed psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, and former prosecutor turned defense attorney Eric Faddis, this deep-dive explores what may really be going on behind Karen Read's statements, courtroom behavior, and post-incident interviews. This isn't just speculation. Shavaun Scott brings clinical insight into traits of narcissistic rage and borderline personality disorder, helping us understand how fear of abandonment, emotional volatility, and ego protection could explain some of Karen Read's erratic and contradictory reactions—especially after the death of John O'Keefe. Meanwhile, Dreeke and Faddis unpack how Read's public statements, contradictions, and refusal to accept accountability fit classic behavioral profiles. They also explore how her post-crash interviews and courtroom demeanor may reflect self-preservation above grief—often viewed by jurors as cold detachment. From the infamous “Did I hit him?” quote to her public targeting of alleged conspirators, the experts explain why her shifting narratives and finger-pointing may backfire legally—and signal deeper psychological distress. Is she collapsing under guilt, or masterfully manipulating perception? You decide. This video also unpacks the dwindling FKR movement, the cult-like behavior of Karen's die-hard supporters, and how social media has shaped the courtroom's atmosphere. Whether you believe Karen Read is guilty or not, this is the psychological and legal breakdown you don't want to miss. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #PsychologicalAnalysis #TrueCrimeExperts #HiddenKillers #NarcissisticRage #TrialBreakdown #FBIBehaviorAnalysis #KarenReadTrial #ForensicPsychology Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Karen Read Had Time To Try And Save John O'Keefe, Former Prosecutor Eric Faddis Weighs In John O'Keefe didn't die instantly. That's the key takeaway from neurosurgeon Dr. Aizik Wolf's testimony—and it could have seismic consequences for Karen Read's defense. In this premiere breakdown from Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski is joined by Eric Faddis, a former prosecutor, to explore what it means when a medical expert tells the jury there was a window of time—a chance to act, to save a life, to call for help. If Karen Read was responsible for hitting O'Keefe, then her decision to leave the scene could represent not just moral failure, but criminal negligence. Was it second-degree murder—or fatal inaction? Faddis unpacks the legal duty to render aid, how it factors into jury instructions, and whether the timeline now favors the prosecution. This is where law, medicine, and morality collide. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #DutyToAct #FailureToHelp #EricFaddis #FallTheory #TrueCrimeDebate #HiddenKillersPodcast #KarenReadTrial #ForensicLaw Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Five Legal Time Bombs in the Kohberger Case That Could Explode at Trial Former prosecutor and defense attorney Eric Faddis joins us for a deep dive into the legal chess match unfolding in the Bryan Kohberger case. As Kohberger faces capital murder charges for the killings of four University of Idaho students, his defense team has filed a motion to delay the trial, citing constitutional violations and incomplete forensic and psychological investigations. But as Faddis explains, there's much more going on beneath the surface. This isn't just about trial prep—it's about preserving appellate leverage. The motion to continue includes references to landmark Supreme Court cases like Wiggins v. Smith and Powell v. Alabama, invoking the concept of “heightened reliability” required in death penalty proceedings. Kohberger's attorneys argue they need more time to complete a full “life history” mitigation investigation—one that includes trauma, mental health evaluations, and multi-generational background records. According to Faddis, these steps are standard in capital cases, but failing to do them thoroughly could open the door to a future reversal on appeal. We also unpack how the defense is weaponizing media coverage, including the recent Dateline NBC special and James Patterson's upcoming book, to argue that Kohberger cannot receive a fair trial under current conditions. Faddis provides expert commentary on whether this pretrial publicity genuinely threatens the jury pool—or if it's a calculated move to frame a potential mistrial argument before trial even begins. Is this defense strategy brilliant or overplayed? What forensic evidence still hasn't been fully vetted? And how is this shaping up to be one of the most complicated capital trials in recent memory? Faddis brings clarity to a case that's anything but clear. #BryanKohberger #EricFaddis #KohbergerTrial #TrueCrimeAnalysis #DeathPenaltyDefense #ForensicLaw #IdahoMurders #KohbergerEvidence #CapitalTrial #CriminalJusticeSystem Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Prosecutor Reacts: Karen Read's Meltdowns Are a Legal Disaster According to the prosecution, all it took was a woman's name, used as a geographic landmark, and Karen Read flew into a rage so intense that it allegedly set off the chain of events that ended in John O'Keefe's death. In this episode, former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down why that detail matters. Not just because of what was said, but how it was said—and who it was said in front of. The jury isn't just hearing about murder—they're hearing about an emotional implosion so unhinged that it may reveal Karen Read's mindset, her motive, and her guilt. Faddis walks us through how this kind of emotional instability affects legal strategy and why, when it comes to murder trials, what you say when you think no one's listening can be the loudest thing in the courtroom. #KarenRead #KarenReadTrial #EricFaddis #TrueCrimeLegal #HiddenKillers #CourtroomBreakdown #TriggeredRage #JohnOKeefe #DefenseUnraveling #KarenReadRant Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Legal Expert: Karen Read's Timeline Crumbles Under Her Own Statements In one of the most disturbing elements of the Karen Read trial so far, the jury is now hearing about what Read said in front of the children John O'Keefe raised. Screaming, swearing, and blaming John for things that had nothing to do with the tragedy that unfolded outside 34 Fairview Road. Attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to explain just how damaging these moments are to Read's defense. From the “your f-ing kids” comment to the explosive “f-ing pervert” accusation, Faddis lays out how this behavior could influence jurors, especially when the children involved are now expected to testify against her. This isn't a matter of emotion—it's a matter of intent. And in a courtroom, intent is everything. #KarenRead #KarenReadTrial #EricFaddis #JohnOKeefe #CourtroomDrama #LegalAnalysis #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #DefenseStrategy #KarenReadMeltdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Karen Read's Words Are Now Exhibit A for the Prosecution Screaming “he's a f-ing pervert” and “f-ing another girl” in front of children isn't just bad optics—it's potentially devastating evidence in a courtroom. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to break down how Karen Read's own words are now being used to frame the case against her. Whether it's the profanity, the fury, or the context—lying next to John O'Keefe's kids after he'd allegedly just been left to die—every detail matters to a jury. Faddis explains how this language plays into prosecutorial strategy, why emotional outbursts can suggest guilt, and how jurors tend to weigh credibility when a defendant starts attacking the very people they're supposed to protect. When you're on trial for murder, words can be weapons. And in this case, the defense is losing control of the narrative. #KarenRead #EricFaddis #TrueCrimeCommunity #KarenReadTrial #HiddenKillers #CourtroomBehavior #LegalStrategy #ConsciousnessOfGuilt #JohnOKeefe #TrialBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

How Karen Read's Own Mouth Is Sinking Her Defense Karen Read says she's the victim of a cover-up—but according to attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis, her own words are doing more damage to her defense than any government conspiracy ever could. In this episode, Faddis takes us inside the legal implications of Read's profanity-laced rants about John O'Keefe—especially the ones she allegedly made while lying in bed with O'Keefe's orphaned niece and nephew. He explains how this kind of language, especially in front of children, isn't just ugly—it's evidence. The kind a jury remembers. The kind you can't walk back. Faddis breaks down how these statements suggest consciousness of guilt, and why no matter how the defense spins it, credibility is everything in court. And right now? Karen Read is losing hers by the minute. #KarenRead #KarenReadTrial #EricFaddis #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrime #LegalAnalysis #ConsciousnessOfGuilt #HiddenKillers #CourtroomDrama #CredibilityCrisis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

How Karen Read's Own Mouth Is Sinking Her Defense Karen Read says she's the victim of a cover-up—but according to attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis, her own words are doing more damage to her defense than any government conspiracy ever could. In this episode, Faddis takes us inside the legal implications of Read's profanity-laced rants about John O'Keefe—especially the ones she allegedly made while lying in bed with O'Keefe's orphaned niece and nephew. He explains how this kind of language, especially in front of children, isn't just ugly—it's evidence. The kind a jury remembers. The kind you can't walk back. Faddis breaks down how these statements suggest consciousness of guilt, and why no matter how the defense spins it, credibility is everything in court. And right now?

How the Karen Read Defense Breaks Reality Eric Faddis Breaks It Down In this episode, we're joined by criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis to examine the jaw-dropping gap between the Karen Read defense theory and the actual evidence presented in court. With bizarre claims involving a house full of cops allegedly staging a murder, a body moved under a flagpole, and a silent German Shepherd turned prime suspect, we ask: does any of this hold up under real legal scrutiny? Eric brings his courtroom experience to unpack what prosecutors look for when evaluating “consciousness of guilt,” and why Karen Read's own words — including “Did I hit him?” and “I hit him” — may be more damaging than anything forensic. We explore the staggering leap the defense theory asks jurors to make: believing a wide-scale conspiracy involving police, neighbors, and friends, with no one slipping, confessing, or even sending a regretful text. This is where reality checks come in. We talk about Occam's Razor, jury psychology, and how emotional reactions can backfire when a defendant is in the spotlight. Faddis takes us through what makes a case prosecutable — and what jurors look for when the facts start making more sense than the fiction. If you've been trying to understand whether the defense strategy is brilliant, desperate, or just plain implausible, this conversation lays it all out. And if you think Karen's own statements don't matter, think again. #KarenReadTrial #JohnOKeefe #EricFaddis #KarenReadCase #ConsciousnessOfGuilt #MurderTrial #ForensicAnalysis #FlagpoleTheory #LegalBreakdown #HiddenKillersPodcastWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Karen Read's Defense: Does It Even Make Sense? A Prosecutor's Take Sometimes courtroom defense strategies get creative — but in the Karen Read trial, the theory has gone from bold to borderline science fiction. In this episode, we sit down with former prosecutor Eric Faddis to dissect whether the defense's story holds any weight when measured against real-world logic and legal standards. We discuss how the defense narrative — that multiple partygoers, including cops, staged a murder and planted John O'Keefe's body in the snow — collides with the forensic timeline, digital data, and Read's own statements. Why would Karen ask, “Did I hit him?” before the body was found? Why point out her broken taillight if she had no reason to suspect involvement? Faddis explains how prosecutors use moments like these to argue “consciousness of guilt” and how juries often see right through overcomplicated defense theories. This conversation cuts through the courtroom drama and gets to the legal core: does this theory even pass the smell test?

The Wildest Defense in a Murder Trial: Eric Faddis on the Karen Read Case Could a group of off-duty cops, neighbors, and friends really stage a murder, move a body, cover it up, and keep it quiet for over two years — all without a single witness flipping? That's the theory the defense is offering in the Karen Read trial. In this episode, former prosecutor and legal analyst Eric Faddis joins us to break down just how wild the claims have gotten — and whether any of it holds up under actual courtroom scrutiny. From the “murder-by-dog” suggestion to the infamous flagpole location and the now-infamous 2:27 a.m. Google search, we're diving into the tangled web of what the defense wants the jury to believe. Faddis gives a prosecutor's perspective on how far a theory can go before it collapses under its own weight. He explores what a jury actually responds to: consistency, logic, and real-world behavior. And in this case? That may be the biggest challenge for the defense yet. If you've been following this case and thinking, “Wait — does any of this make sense?” — this is the episode for you.

Four New Ways The Walls Are Closing In On Bryan Kohberger, With Attorney Eric Faddis Could a PhD in Criminology Actually Teach You How to Get Away with Murder? When your Amazon history includes a combat knife, a face mask, and a sheath—months before a quadruple homicide—you're either preparing for the world's most intense cosplay... or something a lot more sinister. In this episode, Tony Brueski and former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis dissect the increasingly bizarre puzzle that is the Bryan Kohberger case. From mysteriously missing phone data to swapped license plates and 4 a.m. trash runs in gloves, prosecutors allege Kohberger wasn't just committing murder—he was trying to commit the perfect one. But how perfect can it be when your alibi is "I was looking at the stars" on a night that was completely overcast? Faddis breaks down how the defense might spin Kohberger's criminology background, the infamous “how-did-you-feel-while-committing-a-crime” Reddit questions, and even the alleged attempt at a rap career (because why not add that to the mix?). With surveillance footage, forensic detail, and odd behavior stacking up, the real question becomes: Is this a case of calculated evil or just a whole bunch of really terrible coincidences? Can an autism defense neutralize the weird—or just make it weirder? #BryanKohberger #TrueCrimePodcast #CriminologyStudent #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #AutismDefense #IdahoMurders Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Did the system really deliver justice, or are we left questioning whether the right person is paying the price for a horrifying crime? In the Richard Allen case, the jury's guilty verdict brought shock and relief to many—but was it truly the correct call, or did the defense face an uphill battle stacked against them from the start? Former prosecutor and defense attorney Eric Faddis weighs in on the chilling reality of the trial, where Judge Gull's decisions seemingly tilted the scales of justice. Faddis and Tony Brueski explore how a judge's power can create an unbalanced courtroom, especially when it appears the rules were written by one person. Are appeals and ethics committees enough to check a judicial system that sometimes feels more like a game of gods and mortals than a fair process?

As I wrap up with Meghan Faddis (Hamilton Chicago and touring companies) you're getting some hot takes on beloved musicals, you'll learn about how she almost ended up a professional soccer player, there's lots of love for her dog Spencer, and you'll hear the story of how "Expert Hula Hooper" ended up on her resume. Plus, Meghan loves and knows the lyrics to a ton of early 2000s hip hop and talks about how inspired she is by the amazing women putting out her new favorite music with super honest lyrics.

Meghan Faddis (Hamilton Chicago and touring companies) continues to speak about her experience in the entertainment industry as a whole, especially as a woman: from navigating internalized standards and pressures, to realizing that "No." is a complete sentence, and finally deleting all of those damn exclamation points in emails #IYKYK. And while Meghan doesn't have all the answers, talking about mental health in the theatre world is a super important step towards making the very necessary changes. After spending four wonderful and fulfilling years with Hamilton, Meghan made the careful decision to leave the show and focus on being home to reset, regroup, and branch out creatively. It was time to take everything she learned from Hamilton and apply it to different art forms and different ventures. Meghan has fallen in love with working with the new generation of artists by way of dance competition judging and I promise you the conversation is super fun, educational (at least for me!), and really inspiring! You might have seen one of Meghan's viral judging videos on TikTok, and she breaks down the whole experience. We're finally getting the new wave of teachers the kids deserve!

Meghan Faddis spent four years as swing in Hamilton, starting in Chicago and then moving to the touring companies. While she's been dancing professionally since she was six years old, Hamilton was her first time swinging and to say she learned a lot is quite an understatement. Hamilton has her favorite style of dance and she was (and still is) thrilled to be part of the show. This week Meghan talks about the balance of looking at Hamilton's intricate choreography as a puzzle, focusing on both the big picture and the endless details. Meghan's first episode kicks off a very real and necessary conversation about the overwhelming work of a swing as she talks about learning Woman 1 in real time in the middle of a performance (yep, read that again), the time she did the show while suffering from food poisoning, the lack of mental health resources in the theatre industry, and the importance of being your own advocate.

In this episode of Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski, former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the latest developments surrounding Diddy's arrest and the potential ripple effects throughout his inner circle. Was the federal government strategically waiting to catch the "kingpin" before letting the rest of his alleged empire scatter? Faddis dives into the intricacies of RICO cases and how typically, when a figure like Diddy is taken down, many others follow. But this time, it seems they're playing a different game—one where fear and speculation reign. The discussion shifts to the shady undercurrents of the entertainment industry and what it means for those who may have been complicit in the alleged misconduct. As whispers circulate about possible immunity deals and the roles of record executives, the tension builds. Who else might be implicated, and what will the fallout look like? With allegations of bribery and obstruction of justice looming, one can only wonder how many more people are feeling the heat right now.

What do you think the odds are of Susan Smith getting out of prison after nearly three decades behind bars for the horrific drowning of her two children? This week on Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski, former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis dives into the complexities of Smith's upcoming parole hearing. After claiming for days that her children had been kidnapped, the chilling truth emerged: a mother's desperate deception ended in tragedy. As the parole board prepares to review her case for a third time, the conversation turns to the haunting nature of her crimes, her alleged mental health struggles, and the cultural shifts surrounding incarceration since the early '90s. Faddis discusses how the legal system's view on such cases can feel arbitrary, questioning whether society is ready to forgive—or if Smith's actions will forever weigh heavily against her. With the father of the children expected to advocate against her release, will Susan Smith finally be denied parole once again? As we await the decision, one can't help but wonder: can someone who has committed such a heinous act ever truly be rehabilitated? #SusanSmith #TrueCrime #EricFaddis #ParoleHearing #MentalHealth #JusticeSystem #HiddenKillers Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, attorney Eric Faddis delves into the latest updates in Bryan Kohberger's case, particularly the strategic move to change the trial's venue. With the change of venue granted, Kohberger's defense team aims to distance the jury from the local biases of Moscow, Idaho, where the murders occurred. Faddis explains how delay tactics could work to the defense's advantage, allowing memories to fade and complicating the prosecution's case. The conversation also explores the challenge of Kohberger's alibi—claiming he was simply driving around—and the limited options his defense attorney, Ann Taylor, had to build a case. Despite early claims of exonerating evidence, Faddis suggests that the defense may be holding back key information to prevent the prosecution from exploiting weaknesses. Additionally, Faddis anticipates that Kohberger's parents could be called as witnesses, with the possibility that they might invoke their Fifth Amendment rights. Finally, Faddis hints at the potential for bombshell evidence to emerge once the trial moves forward, particularly from the digital footprint of the accused. **Main Points:** - The change of venue aims to provide Kohberger with a less biased jury and a fairer trial. - Delay tactics could benefit the defense by causing witnesses to forget details and complicating the prosecution's case. - Kohberger's alibi of "driving around" is weak and lacks witness support. - Ann Taylor, Kohberger's attorney, may be withholding evidence to prevent the prosecution from exploiting potential weaknesses. - Kohberger's parents could be called as witnesses, but may invoke the Fifth Amendment. - The prosecution and defense may have significant, yet undisclosed, evidence that could emerge during the trial. - The trial is expected to begin in early 2025, likely around June. #BryanKohberger #EricFaddis #ChangeOfVenue #AnnTaylor #CriminalDefense #KohbergerTrial #FifthAmendment Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, attorney Eric Faddis discusses the implications of the venue change in the upcoming trial of Bryan Kohberger. The trial, now set for 2025, will no longer take place in Moscow, Idaho, but in a new location with a different judge. Faddis explains that although the Law of the Case Doctrine generally preserves prior rulings, the new judge may offer a fresh perspective, especially on the defense's weak alibi. He believes the change of venue benefits the defense by providing a jury less entrenched in local biases. Faddis remains skeptical about the strength of Kohberger's defense, particularly since there are no witnesses to support his alibi that he was merely driving around. The conversation also touches on Ann Taylor's unorthodox approach to securing the venue change, which included conducting a survey without prior approval from the court—a risky move that ultimately worked in the defense's favor. The discussion delves into how such bold tactics can play a crucial role in high-stakes cases like this. **Main Points:** - Bryan Kohberger's trial has been moved to a new venue, offering the defense a fresh start with a new judge and jury. - The Law of the Case Doctrine means prior rulings will likely stand, though new rulings are possible. - The defense's alibi for Kohberger is weak, with no witness support, which may not resonate with the new jury. - The change in location may help the defense by giving Kohberger a jury not entrenched in local opinions. - Ann Taylor, Kohberger's attorney, took an unusual approach by conducting a pre-trial survey without approval. - High-stakes cases often involve creative legal tactics, like those Taylor employed to secure the venue change. #BryanKohberger #EricFaddis #ChangeOfVenue #KohbergerTrial #AnnTaylor #LawOfTheCase #CriminalDefenseTactics Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, attorney Eric Faddis discusses the growing legal trend of prosecuting parents in cases of school shootings, focusing on the recent case involving Colt Gray, the 14-year-old Georgia shooter, and his father, Colin Gray. Faddis compares this case to the Crumbley trial and emphasizes that holding parents accountable for their children's access to weapons could become more common. They explore the challenges law enforcement faces when responding to threats, citing the earlier interaction between police and the Gray family about a year before the shooting. The discussion highlights the delicate balance between free speech and prosecuting credible threats under the "true threats" doctrine. Faddis suggests that while no-tolerance policies for online threats could help prevent violence, distinguishing between different types of threats remains essential to avoid overreach. The conversation also critiques how delayed action often leads to consequences only after crimes have been committed. **Main Points:** - Prosecuting parents in school shooting cases is becoming more common, as seen with Colin Gray's charges. - Law enforcement struggles to take early action on threats due to constitutional constraints and the need for credible evidence. - The "true threats" doctrine requires proof that a threat is credible and likely to be carried out. - The conversation questions whether no-tolerance policies for threats should be adopted more widely, as they are in contexts like airports. - Different contexts of threats require different legal responses to avoid over-policing or underreacting. #ColtGray #ColinGray #SchoolShooting #CrumblyTrial #TrueThreatsDoctrine #EricFaddis #ParentalAccountability Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, attorney Eric Faddis discusses the troubling issue of school shootings and the legal measures that can help prevent them, focusing on the case of Colt Gray, a 14-year-old shooter, and his father, Colin Gray. Faddis addresses the broader implications of the Red Flag Law in Colorado, which allows courts to temporarily remove firearms from individuals deemed a threat. He emphasizes the delicate balance between taking preventative action and respecting constitutional rights. Faddis also highlights the need for earlier interventions when warning signs arise, such as threats made online, and how authorities often struggle to act decisively due to legal and procedural constraints. The conversation reflects on how laws, like the Red Flag Law, offer potential solutions but come with challenges in implementation and potential for abuse. They conclude that while no single solution is apparent, collaborative efforts between parents, schools, and authorities could help prevent future tragedies. **Main Points:** - Discussion on the case of Colt Gray and the legal repercussions for his father, Colin Gray, after a school shooting. - Explanation of Colorado's Red Flag Law, which allows for temporary firearm removal from individuals deemed a danger. - Challenges of determining credible threats and balancing constitutional rights. - Importance of early intervention when warning signs arise, particularly online threats. - The conversation critiques society's tendency to say something but not follow through with action, leading to inaction. - A call for collaborative efforts between schools, parents, and authorities to monitor potential risks and prevent shootings. - The difficulty in finding a clear solution that respects individual rights while ensuring public safety. #ColtGray #ColinGray #SchoolShooting #RedFlagLaw #EricFaddis #EarlyIntervention #GunControlDebate Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, attorney Eric Faddis discusses the civil lawsuit against Sean "Diddy" Combs, which resulted in a $100 million judgment. The judgment stems from a case where the plaintiff, currently incarcerated, alleges that Diddy drugged and sexually assaulted him in 1997. Faddis explains that Diddy's legal team is challenging the judgment, claiming he was never properly served with the lawsuit, a critical issue that could lead to the judgment being overturned if proven. The plaintiff claims otherwise, and the court initially ruled in his favor, but Diddy's team is working to have the judgment set aside. The discussion also covers the complexities of proving such allegations from over two decades ago, especially when the accuser's credibility is in question due to a criminal history. The conversation highlights the difficulty of navigating high-profile cases where multiple claims, both substantiated and questionable, are made. **Main Points:** - Sean "Diddy" Combs faces a $100 million civil judgment related to an alleged 1997 sexual assault. - Diddy's legal team argues that he wasn't properly served, which could invalidate the judgment. - The accuser presented evidence that Diddy was served and allegedly visited him in prison to negotiate. - The case is complicated by the accuser's criminal history and past dishonesty, raising doubts about credibility. - Similar accusations against Diddy, such as Cassie's case, create a challenging legal landscape for him. - Proving the validity of claims from over 20 years ago is difficult, making it likely the case will be fiercely contested. #SeanCombs #DiddyLawsuit #CivilJudgment #EricFaddis #1997Allegations #LegalChallenge #Cassie Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," Tony Brueski and Eric Faddis, a former felony prosecutor and defense attorney, discuss the ongoing controversy surrounding Scott Peterson's case, who was convicted of murdering his wife, Laci Peterson, and their unborn child. The Los Angeles Innocence Project has recently taken up Peterson's case, citing newly discovered evidence that was not presented during the original trial.

The conversation emphasizes the importance of a thorough examination of all available evidence to ensure a fair trial, particularly in cases involving severe penalties like life imprisonment. The podcast also touches on the broader implications for the justice system when key evidence is overlooked or omitted. - Scott Peterson, convicted of murdering his wife, Laci Peterson, and their unborn child, is now the focus of the Los Angeles Innocence Project. - New evidence, including witness sightings and unexamined DNA, suggests potential reasonable doubt about Peterson's guilt. - The discussion questions why key pieces of evidence were not presented during the original trial. - The conversation highlights the importance of ensuring that all evidence is considered in serious cases to provide a fair trial. - Faddis discusses the complexities of handling multiple pieces of evidence in a high-profile case. - The podcast raises concerns about the broader implications for the justice system when crucial evidence is ignored or mishandled. - Emphasizes the role of the Innocence Project in advocating for re-evaluation of cases with potential miscarriages of justice. #ScottPeterson #LaciPeterson #InnocenceProject #NewEvidence #JusticeSystem #CriminalDefense #FairTrial Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
