A teenage girl is found dead in the front trunk of a Tesla registered to a rising music star. She was never reported missing. The car sat in public view for weeks. And when the body was discovered—there was no statement. No arrests. No public outrage. Just silence. On today's episode of Hidden Killers, we're joined by Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent and former Chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, to dissect what that silence really means. This isn't just a case of tragedy—it's a case of narrative control. From the decision to place Celeste Rivas Hernandez's body in the front trunk of a Tesla, to the legal firepower that arrived before any charges were filed, to the digital vanishing acts and cancelled appearances, every move—or lack of one—is behavior that tells a deeper story. Dreeke walks us through critical psychological insights: What does it mean when a person shows both concealment and carelessness? Why does someone lawyer up fast but never speak for themselves? How does celebrity and charisma protect people from scrutiny—even when a child is found dead? And what does the absence of a missing persons report tell us about the people around Celeste—and the man whose car she was found in? This conversation unpacks power dynamics, grooming patterns, reputation management tactics, and the chilling reality of what happens when truth is optional and image is everything. If you've been watching this case and wondering why no one is saying anything—this episode breaks the silence. Robin Dreeke provides expert behavioral analysis that cuts through the PR and goes straight to the human behavior beneath it.

In one of the most shocking criminal cases in recent memory, a sitting sheriff walked into a Kentucky courthouse and executed a judge in his own chambers. But this wasn't a random act of violence — it was the detonation point of a system that had been rotting from the inside out. On this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dig into the case of Sheriff Shawn “Mickey” Stines, now indicted for the murder of Judge Kevin Mullins inside the Letcher County Courthouse in 2024. Surveillance captured the whole thing. He walked in. He shut the door. He opened fire. But this isn't just about a single shooting. Three days earlier, Stines had been deposed in a federal civil rights case — Adkins v. Fields — alleging rampant sexual coercion, abuse of power, and misconduct inside that same courthouse. One official has already pleaded guilty to rape and sodomy. Others, including Judge Mullins, were named in the lawsuit. Some of the alleged misconduct? Took place inside Mullins' chambers. Now, Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent and former chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, joins us to break down the behavioral spiral that may have led a law enforcement officer to kill a judge — and what it reveals about power, silence, and systemic corruption. We'll examine post-arrest bodycam footage, explore how intimidation keeps victims quiet, and ask the hard question: Was this murder an act of madness — or of reckoning? This case isn't just about Kentucky. It's about what happens when power protects itself, and justice becomes a commodity. Don't miss this one.

Who Is Diddy in Jail? FBI Profiler Analyzes the Man, the Myth, the Manipulator Can a man who spent decades controlling the narrative really just let it go? Or is his latest apology another chapter in the myth of Diddy? In this Hidden Killers Live exclusive, retired FBI Special Agent and behavioral expert Robin Dreeke joins host Tony Brueski to dissect Diddy's letter to the judge—a raw, emotional plea that might not be as raw or emotional as it seems. Line by line, we examine what the letter says, what it means, and what it might be trying to do. Then we look at Free Game with Diddy, the six-week prison class Combs now teaches in jail. He says it's changed his life—and changed others'. But when former gang members, counselors, and inmates start writing letters of praise to support a sentencing request, we have to ask: Is this leadership—or leverage? Robin Dreeke brings real-world experience from inside the FBI's behavioral programs to offer insight on: Charisma as a social weapon Image construction under legal pressure The difference between true transformation and high-stakes storytelling In court, your words matter. In prison, your behavior does. But in the public eye? It's all about what sticks.

Interview with Former FBI Agent Jerri Williams On this episode of Criminal Mischief, host Carolyn Ossorio sits down with Jerri Williams, a former FBI Special Agent, author, and fellow podcaster whose career focused on financial crimes and scams. As one of the few minority women in the Bureau during her tenure, Jerri broke barriers while navigating a world that wasn't always welcoming. She shares how she investigated complex white-collar cases, exposed elaborate frauds, and what those experiences taught her about greed, deception, and human nature. Now a successful writer and podcast host, Jerri reflects on her time in the Bureau, her transition into storytelling, and how she continues to shine a light on the hidden world of financial crime.

Stop Blaming the Kohberger Survivors: Inside The Victim Interviews There's a special kind of sickness in the way people have twisted the trauma of Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke into online conspiracy bait. Two young women lived through the unimaginable—and the internet turned them into suspects in their own survival. In this segment, I sit down with Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent, to walk through the actual police interviews of the surviving roommates in the Kohberger case. Not to dissect their words—but to understand them. Dylan heard noises. A dog barking. Someone say “someone's here.” Bethany noticed light. Movement. A shift in the air. And none of it made sense until it was too late. That's trauma. That's shock. That's the brain locking up to keep you alive. Robin helps us unpack how trained investigators read this kind of narrative:  – Why fragmented memory doesn't equal fabrication  – How time distortion, confusion, and delay are common under threat  – And why influencers trying to score clout off survivor pain are the real rot in the system We walk through the timeline without judgment. We connect their words to forensic markers. And we push back hard on the cruel, idiotic noise that keeps trying to turn their trauma into “evidence.” Bryan Kohberger is guilty. He's in prison. These women lived through hell. Let's treat them like it.

What We Know Now: Verified Facts in the D4vd Celeste Murder Case A 15-year-old found in a Tesla's trunk. A rising artist's name on the registration. That combo lights the internet on fire in seconds. In this opener, we do the opposite of clout-chasing. We slow it down and walk through what's actually confirmed and what smart investigators do first when the spotlight's blinding. With guest Jennifer Coffindaffer (retired FBI Special Agent), we map the sequence cleanly: Hollywood Hills abandonment, tow to the lot, odor complaint, discovery—no dramatics, no leaps. We talk about how a high-pressure case is staffed for success: lead homicide on point, support where it matters, tight scene control so evidence doesn't “evaporate” before it ever hits a lab. And yes, why “no charges yet” is often a sign of discipline, not weakness. Then we frame the car questions without pretending the dashboard is a detective: Who last had control? How long did it sit? What can a modern vehicle actually log that's useful—and what will never be a substitute for witnesses and trace? This is a foundation episode: fewer hashtags, more facts. Reminder: this involves a family and a child.  As of this recording, no one is charged; everyone is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

Send us a textRod Osborne was an FBI agent for 26 years. He's lived all over including several faraway places like Spain, the Philippines and China. Now, just this information alone would be enough to get a people person to want to hear Rod's story but wait; there's more.Did you happen to see the Hulu docuseries, “Mormon No More”? Rod, his wife Nan, and four of their five children appear in the show which deals with Rod's daughter Sally falling in love with another woman while both married to men. I may be a bit biased, but I thought it was great!As I visited with Rod and he shared his story, time and time again we realized we had much in common. I should say that Rod and I are friends, teammates on a tournament softball team. As Rod shares his life story, I know each listener will come away impressed by his dedication to family, country and truth.

They combined to write the new book “Inside the Cartel: How an Undercover FBI Agent Smuggled Cocaine, Laundered Cash, and Dismantled a Colombian Narco-Empire”. In this interview, we discuss why he was chosen to work undercover for the FBI, how he got into smuggling drugs, how he began to infiltrate Colombian drug cartels, the time when the cartel asked him to smuggle $500,000,000 worth of cocaine into the US, what it was like switching back and forth between his true identity and his altar ego, the time when he was out to dinner with his wife and he ran into a cartel member, the difference between drug smuggling and money laundering, how he determined when to wear a wire, when he thought he had been made by the cartel, when a sicario came to his house to kill him after the investigation had closed, and much more.

FBI Behavioral Expert Analyzes Donna Adelson's “Bump” Reaction — The Moment It All Cracked What really happened during the infamous undercover “bump” that exposed Donna Adelson's alleged involvement in the murder of Dan Markel? In this gripping breakdown, retired FBI Special Agent and behavioral expert Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to analyze the red flags that lit up the moment Donna was confronted with a flyer implying someone knew everything—and her reaction was nothing short of chilling. She didn't panic. She didn't call her husband. She didn't lawyer up. Twenty-two minutes later, she was on the phone with her son Charlie—controlled, calm, and calculated. That single call—and the abrupt stop in money flow to the alleged go-between—told investigators everything they needed to know. Robin explains how law enforcement uses “bumps” to trigger psychological reactions, and how Donna's lack of one may have spoken louder than anything she could've said. This isn't just courtroom evidence—it's a behavioral autopsy of a moment that shattered the illusion of innocence. Was Donna already mentally prepared to be exposed? Did she know the walls were closing in? And why did everything suddenly stop the minute that flyer hit her lap? This segment lays the foundation for everything else to come—and you won't look at Donna Adelson the same way again.

  In this episode of The American Warrior Show, host Rich Brown welcomes retired FBI Special Agent Dr. T.C. Fuller— decorated Army veteran, elite firearms instructor, award-winning author, and former Quantico instructor. He's the brains behind acclaimed books like Painting Over Rust: Stories From a 20 Year Odyssey in the FBI, No Safe Alternative: Improving How We Teach Cops to Kill, and his recently released memoir Empathy for the Devil: Interrogating Terrorists in Guantanamo Bay.

From this rich body of experience, Fuller will guide listeners through: The fine line between legal rights and policy obligations Tactical considerations for navigating “gray zones” safely Maintaining readiness when faced with carry bans or unclear signage The mindset, responsibility, and proper response when laws and policies diverge Whether you're a legally armed citizen or a firearms professional, this episode delivers practical wisdom—not hypothetical discussion—from a seasoned agent's real-world experiences.   T.C.'s Website: https://www.thehorusgroup.net/ T.C.'s recent article: https://americanwarriorsociety.com/may-you-live-in.../

Andrew McGann's Not Guilty Plea & Devil's Den Secrecy REVEALED With Ret. FBI Robin Dreeke In July 2025, Clinton and Cristen Brink were murdered while hiking in Devil's Den State Park, Arkansas, as their two young daughters ran for their lives. Four days later, police arrested former teacher Andrew James McGann, saying they had DNA evidence, surveillance footage, and a detailed confession tying him to the crime. But in a closed-door hearing with no public or media present, McGann pleaded not guilty to two counts of capital murder — a move that left many asking, why? In this full-length interview, retired FBI Special Agent and former Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, Robin Dreeke, joins me to dissect every angle. We cover the legal strategy behind McGann's plea, the role it plays in a death penalty case, and how the defense could challenge the alleged confession. We also explore his background as a teacher, prior allegations, and whether a sudden psychotic break could explain the shift from a seemingly normal life to a deadly attack. Then we pivot to the system itself — the decision to keep court proceedings behind closed doors, what that means for community trust, and how secrecy in a case this unusual can fuel conspiracy theories, contaminate juries, and make life even harder for the victims' families. If you want the full story — from the shocking not guilty plea to the larger fight over transparency and public trust — this is the one to watch. #DevilsDen #AndrewMcGann #TrueCrime #ArkansasCrime #MurderTrial #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #CourtTransparency #DeathPenaltyCase #JusticeForTheBrinks Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

FBI Special Agent Reveals How Kohberger Kept A CLEAN Digital Trail He studied criminal minds. He researched what gets killers caught. So how did Bryan Kohberger manage to keep such a clean digital footprint after committing one of the most notorious mass killings in recent memory? Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski to dissect what may be the most disturbing part of this case: Kohberger knew exactly how to disappear online. From shutting off his phone during the window of the murders, to wiping his devices, paying only in cash, and never using GPS, Kohberger executed a digital vanishing act that made law enforcement work overtime to catch up. But it wasn't perfect. In this episode, Coffindaffer explains the digital mistakes that cracked the case—like the 4:22 a.m. ping after the murders, the historical phone data that placed him near the victims' home over 20 times before the crime, and the suspicious app deletions that suggested a cover-up. We also explore the mindset behind these digital habits. Was he just smart, or was he rehearsing? What does his online behavior tell us about motive, paranoia, and power? For anyone fascinated by the intersection of psychology and technology in criminal investigations, this conversation is a must. It's a masterclass in what offenders get right, what they overlook, and how digital forensics brought down a suspect who thought he was untouchable. #BryanKohberger #DigitalForensics #KohbergerDigitalTrail #JenniferCoffindaffer #KohbergerPhoneData #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #IdahoMurders #KohbergerInvestigation #ForensicTechnology Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Ret FBI Behavior Chief Gives EXPERT Insight To The Devil's Den Tragedy Description: In this full-length compilation episode, Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent and former Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, delivers powerful behavioral insight into the shocking Devil's Den double homicide—a brutal daylight stabbing of Clinton and Cristen Brink in front of their two young daughters on a popular hiking trail in Northwest Arkansas. Drawing from over two decades of experience in behavioral profiling and threat analysis, Dreeke examines the law enforcement response, the psychological footprint of the suspect, and the deeper implications of this case on public trust and institutional accountability. He dissects why the six-hour delay in alerting the public was so critical—and potentially catastrophic—and how failures in communication and preparedness can damage the relationship between citizens and law enforcement. Dreeke also provides detailed insight into the predatory behavior of the suspect, including the decision to strike in a crowded state park, the choice of weapon, and the potential symbolism in targeting a family. From tactical analysis of the suspect's clothing and escape strategy, to broader questions of leadership, crisis management, and public perception, Dreeke doesn't just react—he contextualizes this tragedy with a level of professional clarity few others can. If you're looking for real-world FBI perspective on how law enforcement should respond, how killers behave before and after an attack, and what this case tells us about vulnerability and resilience in American communities, this episode delivers.

Devils Den Attack 'Planned For Years', Thinks Ret FBI Special Agent Coffindaffer Was the brutal double homicide at Devil's Den State Park really random—or was it a long-simmering, premeditated plan carried out with chilling precision? In this gripping episode of Hidden Killers, host Tony Brueski is joined by retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer to dig deep into the disturbing psychological profile of accused killer James Andrew McGann. Coffindaffer, with decades of federal behavioral experience, believes this wasn't a spur-of-the-moment crime. From the taped-over license plate to the tactical black clothing and concealed knife, every detail points toward an act meticulously orchestrated in advance. We explore how someone like McGann, who had no apparent connection to his victims, could prepare so deliberately for a random act of horror—and what that suggests about his state of mind and possible past behavior. Was this a dry run for something bigger? Was it fantasy meeting opportunity? Coffindaffer lays out why these red flags should've been noticed much earlier and how our systems continue to miss them. Plus, we look at what law enforcement revealed during the press conference about the timeline, the DNA match, and McGann's own admissions.

Ret FBI Behavior Chief Gives EXPERT Insight To The Devil's Den Tragedy Description: In this full-length compilation episode, Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent and former Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, delivers powerful behavioral insight into the shocking Devil's Den double homicide—a brutal daylight stabbing of Clinton and Cristen Brink in front of their two young daughters on a popular hiking trail in Northwest Arkansas. Drawing from over two decades of experience in behavioral profiling and threat analysis, Dreeke examines the law enforcement response, the psychological footprint of the suspect, and the deeper implications of this case on public trust and institutional accountability. He dissects why the six-hour delay in alerting the public was so critical—and potentially catastrophic—and how failures in communication and preparedness can damage the relationship between citizens and law enforcement. Dreeke also provides detailed insight into the predatory behavior of the suspect, including the decision to strike in a crowded state park, the choice of weapon, and the potential symbolism in targeting a family. From tactical analysis of the suspect's clothing and escape strategy, to broader questions of leadership, crisis management, and public perception, Dreeke doesn't just react—he contextualizes this tragedy with a level of professional clarity few others can. If you're looking for real-world FBI perspective on how law enforcement should respond, how killers behave before and after an attack, and what this case tells us about vulnerability and resilience in American communities, this episode delivers.

Devils Den Attack 'Planned For Years', Thinks Ret FBI Special Agent Coffindaffer Was the brutal double homicide at Devil's Den State Park really random—or was it a long-simmering, premeditated plan carried out with chilling precision? In this gripping episode of Hidden Killers, host Tony Brueski is joined by retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer to dig deep into the disturbing psychological profile of accused killer James Andrew McGann. Coffindaffer, with decades of federal behavioral experience, believes this wasn't a spur-of-the-moment crime. From the taped-over license plate to the tactical black clothing and concealed knife, every detail points toward an act meticulously orchestrated in advance. We explore how someone like McGann, who had no apparent connection to his victims, could prepare so deliberately for a random act of horror—and what that suggests about his state of mind and possible past behavior. Was this a dry run for something bigger? Was it fantasy meeting opportunity? Coffindaffer lays out why these red flags should've been noticed much earlier and how our systems continue to miss them. Plus, we look at what law enforcement revealed during the press conference about the timeline, the DNA match, and McGann's own admissions. If you think this case is just about one man's descent into madness, think again—this may be a window into systemic failure and warning signs missed for years.
