Big Breakdown: The Delphi Murders And The Wrongful Conviction Of Richard Allen In this eye-opening episode of Hidden Killers, we take you inside the interrogation room where Richard Allen—the man now at the center of the Delphi murders case—was questioned by investigators. Joining us are two of the top minds in behavioral science: retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke and forensic psychotherapist Shavaun Scott. Together, we dissect the interrogation footage that has sparked serious questions about the strength of the case—and whether the real killer is still out there. From the moment Allen sits down, the tension is palpable—but not in the way you might expect from a guilty man. Robin Dreeke unpacks Allen's verbal patterns, stress indicators, and behavior under pressure. Is this the posture of a man hiding a heinous crime… or someone completely out of his depth, terrified, and confused by the weight of what he's being accused of? Shavaun Scott brings her lens of clinical experience to Allen's emotional presentation and mental state. As the conversation unfolds, Allen appears increasingly distressed—making unusual religious statements, referencing his declining mental health, and wavering between confusion and fear. Could this be the unraveling of a guilty conscience, or the mental collapse of an innocent man trapped in a nightmare? Together, Dreeke and Scott explore: The lack of forensic evidence tying Allen to the crime scene Whether Allen's demeanor matches that of a deceptive subject—or a psychologically overwhelmed civilian Red flags in how the interrogation was conducted, and whether coercion or suggestibility could have played a role The possibility that investigators zeroed in on the wrong man under immense public pressure If you've watched the Richard Allen tapes and walked away unsettled—this episode will help you understand why. This isn't just about guilt or innocence. It's about how easily the justice system can make a mistake, and how we spot it before it's too late. #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #WronglyAccused #FalseConfession #FBIProfiler #ShavaunScott #RobinDreeke #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #InterrogationBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Criminology Turned Crime Did Kohberger Want To Teach About His Own Crime Someday Could Bryan Kohberger be telling the truth—or is he orchestrating one of the boldest courtroom manipulations we've seen in years? In this must-watch episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke breaks down Kohberger's behavior following the stunning introduction of an “alternate suspect” by his defense team just weeks before trial. We explore what it means when someone shifts the narrative this late in the game. Is this a psychological tactic designed to introduce confusion and reasonable doubt? Robin weighs in on everything from body language, deception cues, emotional control, and the weaponization of silence in a courtroom setting. As Kohberger's team fights to keep graphic evidence out and his family in the room, we ask: what behaviors suggest genuine innocence, and which point to manipulation? Robin's analysis offers a rare inside look at how trained profilers decode lies, shame, and guilt—all without a single word spoken. If you're following the Idaho murders case, this episode is essential viewing. We're not just reviewing evidence—we're dissecting human behavior in the courtroom under a microscope. #BryanKohberger #BehavioralAnalysis #RobinDreeke #TrueCrimePodcast #Idaho4 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Psychology of Guilt Karen Read's Shifting Story Through a Behavioral Lens In this gripping episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski sits down with retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke to examine the trial of Karen Read—through a behavioral lens. As the courtroom battles rage on, we dive deep into what may be the most telling evidence of all: Karen Read's own words, behavior, and emotional inconsistencies. From the moment she asked, “Could I have sideswiped him?” to her shifting narratives in interviews and text messages, Dreeke highlights patterns that suggest more than just a foggy memory. Is this self-preservation mode… or something deeper? The discussion breaks down Read's possible narcissistic behavioral traits, her inconsistent tempo during questioning, and why some of her emotional responses might actually be masking something more calculated. We also touch on the vehicle timestamp data that allegedly aligns the Lexus SUV's reverse event with the time John O'Keefe stopped using his phone—an alignment that could make or break the defense's claim of reasonable doubt. If technology and behavior both point in the same direction, the jury may not need much more. Don't miss this in-depth breakdown where law, forensics, and behavioral psychology collide. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrime2025 #DigitalForensics #CourtroomPsychology #FBIProfiler #BehavioralAnalysis #NarrativeControl #LexusData #ConsciousnessOfGuilt Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Did Bryan Kohberger Kill to Impress His Professor FBI Profiler Robin Dreeke Breaks It Down In this gripping episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke dives into one of the most bizarre and controversial theories in the Bryan Kohberger case: the idea that Kohberger may have committed the murders of four University of Idaho students to impress his former professor, Dr. Katherine Ramsland. This theory, reported by journalist Howard Blum, has drawn comparisons to John Hinckley Jr.'s attempted assassination of President Reagan to impress actress Jodie Foster. But is it psychologically plausible? Dreeke, who once led the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, brings his deep expertise in motive, delusion, and high-risk behavioral patterns to break down the facts. Could Kohberger's academic obsession with serial killers have blurred the line between research and reality? Did he see his alleged crime as a twisted form of validation from a mentor he idolized? We explore how common—or rare—this type of motive actually is, what kind of psychological markers are typically present, and what kind of evidence investigators would need to verify such a theory in court. Dreeke also explains why the absence of hard proof doesn't necessarily mean the theory is wrong—it just makes it legally dangerous to rely on it without corroboration. Whether you believe the "impress the professor" theory or not, Dreeke helps cut through the noise to reveal what behaviors actually matter in assessing this case. This is a must-watch for anyone trying to understand the psychology behind one of the most confusing and disturbing alleged motives in recent true crime history.

From Student to Suspect Did Kohberger Turn Ramsland's Teachings into Murder Could Bryan Kohberger have transformed from criminology student to accused killer as a way to "show his work" to a professor he idolized? That's the chilling theory raised by journalist Howard Blum—and in this episode of Hidden Killers, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke is here to dig into it. Dr. Katherine Ramsland, Kohberger's former professor and one of the foremost experts on serial killers, has never commented publicly on her former student. But Blum's reporting alleges that Kohberger emailed her before and after the murders—and that the killings may have been a twisted performance piece to earn her intellectual admiration. Dreeke brings his behavioral profiling expertise to dissect this theory. What kind of mindset does it take to commit a quadruple homicide as a form of symbolic achievement? And what role does ego—particularly in academically driven narcissists—play in escalating obsession into violence? Together, we examine whether Kohberger was trying to become the embodiment of what he studied. Was he staging a real-life case to rival those in Ramsland's books? Or was it something even darker—a final exam, so to speak, intended to impress the very person who taught him how to analyze the criminal mind?

“Murder for Mentorship FBI Profiler Explores Kohberger's Alleged Obsession with Ramsland” Was the motive for one of the most haunting mass killings in recent history not rage, not revenge—but academic admiration? In this exclusive interview, Tony Brueski sits down with former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke to dissect the Howard Blum theory that Bryan Kohberger may have murdered four students as a twisted gesture to impress his former criminology professor, Dr. Katherine Ramsland. This theory has captivated and unsettled the public, offering a motive that feels ripped straight from a psychological thriller. But Dreeke—who specialized in decoding human behavior and threat assessments—helps bring it back down to earth. What would it take, behaviorally, for someone to develop that kind of obsessive admiration? And does Kohberger's background support such a profile? We examine Ramsland's influence in Kohberger's academic career, the behavioral patterns that suggest fixation, and how rare it actually is for a student to turn to violence in a bid for academic approval. Dreeke also weighs in on the kind of evidence—emails, journals, statements—that would be required to take this theory from “clickbait” to courtroom credibility. This episode doesn't just theorize—it dissects, challenges, and investigates. If you've been following the Kohberger case and wondering how credible the Ramsland motive theory really is, you won't want to miss this deeply informed discussion.

Karen Read's Fatal Assumption Why Did She Think He Was Outside Before anyone saw a body, before a single flake of snow was disturbed on the front lawn, Karen Read reportedly said, “Did I hit him?” And just like that, the prosecution's timeline had a behavioral anchor. In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins us to analyze what that kind of pre-discovery assumption means — not in speculation, but in behavioral science. We break down what makes this moment so critical: no one had seen John O'Keefe at that point, yet Karen's panic went straight to the idea that he was not just outside, but already hurt — or worse, dead. Was this just anxiety spinning out of control? Or something more telling? Robin takes us inside how trained profilers evaluate guilt leakage, subconscious narrative shifts, and the crucial difference between panic and prediction. This isn't just about what was said — it's when it was said, and how the tone, timing, and instinctual phrasing could offer the jury a moment of truth hidden in chaos. If you're tracking the Karen Read trial, this is the behavioral pivot point. Don't miss it.

The Question That Could Break the Karen Read Case 'Did I Hit Him', FBI Behavior Expert Talks In this episode, we focus on one of the most puzzling—and potentially case-defining—moments in the Karen Read trial. When she allegedly asked, “Did I hit him?” before John O'Keefe's body had even been discovered, it sent shockwaves through the timeline and raised one chilling question: why would anyone assume that? Joined by former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, we take a deep dive into the psychological and behavioral implications of this question. Was it a moment of genuine fear, trauma-induced speculation, or the subconscious emergence of a truth she was trying to hide? Robin breaks down how professionals in behavioral analysis interpret spontaneous language, particularly under high stress and emotional duress. Throughout this episode, we unpack why timing is everything. Saying the wrong thing too early can reveal far more than intended—and juries notice. We look at Karen Read's overall behavior before the discovery of the body, and why her assumption that John was outside and possibly dead doesn't align with what she should have known in that moment. Whether you're watching this trial with a mind for justice, psychology, or forensic investigation, this is one of those episodes that cuts right to the core of what behavior reveals. Words matter—especially when they come too soon. This video is a must-watch for anyone following the Karen Read case and trying to separate truth from narrative.

FBI Profiler on Karen Read's Public Strategy Conviction or Control In this explosive breakdown of the Karen Read case, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, former chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, joins us to unravel the psychological and behavioral layers behind Read's public defense. From shifting narratives about the death of John O'Keefe, to speculative statements like “he didn't look mortally wounded,” Dreeke brings his expertise to questions of deception, narcissistic behavior, and defense strategy. We dive into the probabilities behind the defense's claims, including the alleged involvement of a police dog and theories involving others at the scene. How likely are these claims from a behavioral and evidentiary standpoint? Is Karen Read simply protecting herself—or manipulating the narrative? If you're following the twists and turns of the Karen Read trial, this expert analysis sheds new light on the case's most confounding questions.

What Did Kohberger & His Dad Talk About On The Drive To PA? Ret FBI Behavior Chief Speculates What really happened during that long, tense cross-country drive with Bryan Kohberger and his dad after the alleged murders? Was it father-son bonding… or a silent ride full of secrets? In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke breaks down what might've been going through Kohberger's head—if he's the one who did it, of course. From allegedly compartmentalized planning and sloppy timing to the eerie body cam footage from that infamous traffic stop, Dreeke walks us through how someone trying to hide in plain sight might totally miss the mark. There's also a deeper dive into how a troubled academic career and past drug struggles may have masked darker intentions to those closest to him. And what about that mysterious “note to dad” found in his apartment? Was it just a grocery reminder or something far more chilling? We also unpack the emotional nightmare facing Kohberger's family—especially his dad—who may end up delivering the most damning testimony of all. Could their truth-telling be the thing that seals his fate? If you were the parent of an alleged killer, would you be able to testify against them? #BryanKohberger #TrueCrimePodcast #IdahoMurders #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #DarkPsychology #CriminalBehavior Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Ret FBI Behavioral Chief Answers, How Did The Long Island Serial Killer Get Away With Crimes For So Long? How does a man allegedly responsible for some of the most horrifying crimes in recent history manage to blend into suburban life so well that even his own family didn't seem to notice? Tony Brueski teams up with retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke to unravel how Rex Heuermann allegedly maintained a horrifying double life, hiding his darkest urges behind a carefully groomed mask of normalcy. From quietly manipulating his family into ignoring chaos, to taking advantage of a society that turns its back on sex trafficking victims, Dreeke breaks down how the slow creep of abnormal behavior can become someone's everyday reality. And what happens when law enforcement, the very people meant to stop monsters, are either indifferent or complicit? Enter James Burke—the former police chief with his own colorful past—which raises the question: did personal skeletons keep this investigation locked away for far too long? How many other killers are walking free because we've decided some lives just aren't worth investigating? Explore the darkness in the Long Island Serial Killer case with #TrueCrimePodcast as Tony Brueski and #RobinDreeke expose how #RexHeuermann allegedly hid in plain sight, uncover the consequences of ignoring #SexTraffickingVictims and failures in #LawEnforcement, watch the case unravel with #JamesBurke and demand real #JusticeForVictims.

How does someone allegedly murder for years and no one—not their spouse, not their neighbors, not even law enforcement—catches on? The case of the Long Island Serial Killer is less about a criminal mastermind and more about a society that seems almost designed to look the other way. In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke unpacks how someone like Rex Heuermann could allegedly operate in plain sight—married, employed, raising kids—while hiding a horrifying double life. Dreeke suggests Heuermann didn't just manipulate individuals—he groomed an entire community into normalizing his red flags. We dive into the psychology behind targeting the vulnerable, specifically sex workers—many of whom are trafficked and have suffered abuse long before ever meeting a predator. With chilling insights, Dreeke explains how desensitization, societal bias, and law enforcement failures create the perfect storm for serial offenders to thrive. And what about the family? Were they complicit, oblivious, or just surviving in a world warped by gradual exposure to chaos? Could it really be that the scariest part of all this isn't the evil itself, but how easy it is to ignore when it makes us feel safer? #LISK #RexHeuermann #TrueCrimePodcast #FBIAnalysis #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #RobinDreeke Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Poor Judgement Or Intent To Destroy Detractors, What Karen Read's Actions Reveal What kind of person allegedly leaks autopsy photos, doxxes witnesses, and then wonders why people aren't lining up to buy her a sympathy card? In this deep dive into the twisted saga surrounding Karen Read, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke unpacks the bizarre and allegedly self-destructive relationship between Read and blogger "Turtleboy." With over 40 hours of recorded calls between them, it's less “strategic defense” and more “public therapy session meets content goldmine.” Dreeke offers psychological insight into how Read's apparent need for external validation may have collided head-on with Turtleboy's thirst for attention—resulting in a partnership that could be doing more harm than help. From the rabid loyalty of Read's core followers (who apparently treat due process like an optional side dish) to the prosecution's tightening strategy now that Proctor is offstage, we explore how all this could play with a jury already bombarded by chaos. And let's not forget the bigger question: when does poor judgment stop being poor and start looking a lot like guilty? Is Karen Read's alleged pattern of behavior simply a personality in free fall—or the roadmap to a conviction? #KarenRead #TrueCrimeToday #HiddenKillers #Turtleboy #CourtroomDrama #RobinDreeke #CrimeAndPsychology Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Was Kohberger Living Out His 'American Psycho' Fantasy, Ret FBI Behavior Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke Weighs In What makes someone go from studying crime to allegedly committing one? In this chilling dive into the mind of alleged Idaho killer Bryan Kohberger, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to peel back the layers of psychology, behavior, and eyebrow-raising decisions. A criminology student who allegedly bought a tactical mask and knife long before the crime. A guy who may or may not have ghosted digitally at just the right time. Someone whose online posts eerily aligned with confidential case details—before the arrest. Sound like a coincidence, or just someone who watched American Psycho one too many times? As Dreeke points out, there's a big difference between fantasizing about crime and acting on it—but when that fantasy escalates into alleged planning and execution, the line gets dangerously blurry. We're talking behavioral patterns, emotional voids, creepy social media parallels, and a fascination with crime that might've gone way too far. Also: who poses in a shower, buttoned to the top, with "Psycho" energy radiating from every pixel? Did Bryan Kohberger allegedly leave a breadcrumb trail of his own making—or was he hiding in plain sight, daring the world to figure him out? What was the real switch that flipped—fantasy, feeling, or full-blown psychopathy? #BryanKohberger #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #BehavioralAnalysis #CriminologyGoneWrong #AmericanPsychoVibes #RobinDreekeAnalysis Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Ret FBI Counterintelligence Chief Breaks Down The MANY Missteps Of Karen Read AFTER The Death of John That May Land Her In Prison Was Karen Read desperately fighting for her life—or just trying to control the chessboard from behind the scenes? In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to peel back the layers of alleged behavior in the Karen Read case that's less “legal drama” and more psychological rollercoaster. We're talking secretive messages, blog-fueled chaos, and a masterclass in what not to do when you're trying to prove you're innocent. According to prosecutors, this wasn't just emotional flailing—it was a calculated attempt to manipulate the narrative, intimidate witnesses, and turn a courtroom saga into something more fitting for reality TV. But as Dreeke points out, the clues aren't just in the evidence—they're in the personality patterns. Is this a case of someone who simply can't hit the brakes, or someone who never even saw the brakes to begin with? And what happens when your strongest instinct is control… but everyone starts watching? Did Karen Read's alleged actions reveal a consciousness of guilt—or just a lifetime of chaos finally catching up? #KarenReadCase #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #CourtroomDrama #BehaviorAnalysis #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode, we continue our deep dive with retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke—a man whose job wasn't just catching spies but recruiting them. Dreeke led the FBI's elite Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, where he mastered the art of predicting human behavior. He turned foreign operatives into informants—not with force, but with trust. Now, he's sharing the same tools that can help you avoid fraud, betrayal, and toxic relationships in everyday life. In part one, we peeled back the curtain on his high-stakes career in counter espionage against Russian operatives in the United States. Now, in part two, Dreeke reveals how you can learn to think like an FBI behavioral analyst. How to see the red flags before they wave. How to spot manipulation before it wraps around your life. And how to use behavior patterns—what he calls “behavior arcs”—to make better decisions about who you can trust. If you've ever been lied to, blindsided, or left asking how did I not see that coming?—this episode is for you. Dreeke is the author of “Sizing People Up”, a book I recommend every listener study and underline. His short guide, “It's Not All About Me”, offers a crash course in building rapport in any situation. Let's get into it—here's part two of my conversation with Robin Dreeke.
Breaking Down Bryan Kohbergers Disturbing Patterns Of Behavior With Ret FBI Robin Dreeke Did the alleged Idaho killer outsmart himself by studying outdated crimes? Turns out, earning a PhD in criminology doesn't automatically make you good at crime. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke breaks down the latest revelations in the alleged case against Bryan Kohberger—who, it seems, may have shopped for murder tools the same way the rest of us buy socks: on Amazon. From buying the exact model of knife used in the slayings (allegedly), to picking up a sharpener—possibly the same item mistaken as a “vacuum attachment” by one of the surviving roommates—Kohberger's alleged actions continue to paint a picture of someone dangerously intelligent but fatally naïve. Dreeke and Brueski dig into how Kohberger's alleged digital footprint, online purchases, and attempts to stay off the radar all seem to contradict the kind of wisdom you'd expect from someone with a criminology background. Was he trying to live out a criminal profile he'd studied, like some 21st-century Bundy impersonator with a Prime membership? And if the evidence keeps stacking up like this, what else is waiting to be revealed in his browser history? #BryanKohberger #TrueCrimePodcast #IdahoMurders #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #Criminology #DarkCrime Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Does Karen Read Lack The Ability To Feel Empathy? Did Karen Read kill Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe—or is she just the most unpopular person in the room? In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke digs into the bizarre courtroom behavior and mindset of alleged killer Karen Read. From unsettling giggles and photo ops during a murder trial to the courtroom personality split that would make Jekyll and Hyde blush, Karen's actions speak volumes—even when she says nothing at all. While the evidence in the case is hotly contested and riddled with accusations of police misconduct, it's Read's own words and demeanor that raise eyebrows. Is it narcissism, calculated performance, or just plain detachment? Her courtroom theatrics—posing for pics one minute, stoic statue the next—seem less like someone fighting for justice and more like someone fighting for “likes.” But does a lack of empathy mean guilt? Or are we just watching a deeply confused person flail under the spotlight, saying things like “poor guy” about a man she supposedly loved? When your defense sounds more like a popularity contest than a plea of innocence… what does that say about your truth? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #CourtroomDrama #BehavioralAnalysis #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

The Only Photo Of Bryan Kohberger Smiling Is AFTER The Crime In Shocking Selfie Was this alleged killer gearing up for round two? When someone allegedly commits a brutal quadruple murder, you'd expect them to avoid buying the same murder weapon again—unless there's more to come, or they just really like that knife. In this chilling and strangely revealing episode, Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke dive into the bizarre behavior of Bryan Kohberger, the man accused in the Idaho student murders. Why did he return to Amazon to look at the exact same knife after the slayings? Was it to replace a missing sheath—or was he just critiquing his own performance like a disturbingly dedicated home chef? And what's up with that now-infamous selfie? Clean-shaven, post-shower, bright white shirt, and a thumbs-up... if that's not a serial killer starter pack, it's definitely a trophy of some sort. Dreeke breaks down the psychology behind this behavior, exploring whether this could have been the first of many planned murders. They even analyze how a single photo might be used in court to trigger a powerful response from the surviving roommate—and what that could mean for the prosecution. If he really is a man with no emotional response to anything… why is this the only photo where he's smiling? #IdahoMurders #BryanKohberger #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #CriminalPsychology #FBIAnalysis #TonyBrueski Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Karen Read's Master Class In Narcissism And Lack Of Empathy For Anyone But Herself What happens when an alleged crime, a controversial documentary, and a blogger with a God complex all collide in the middle of a snowstorm and a blackout memory? In this chillingly bizarre look at the case surrounding the death of Boston police officer John O'Keefe, Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke sift through the word salad, contradictions, and courtroom chaos that surround alleged killer Karen Read. From her hazy recollection of the night John died — somewhere between "Did I hit him?" and "I know I didn't" — to her overly casual tone discussing a man's death, it's hard to tell if we're watching a defense or an audition for a reality show. And if the facts weren't twisted enough, things get even messier when Karen admits to having regular contact with blogger Aidan Kearney (aka Turtleboy), who's been busy waging war on anyone who dares to question her innocence — from online harassment to stalking witnesses at their kids' lacrosse games. What could possibly go wrong when the court of law is competing with the court of public opinion... and a blogger with a fanbase? Is this a genuine quest for justice or just one big narcissistic circus?

Was Kohberger Stalking His Victims? A Behavioral Look at His Pre-Crime Patterns Do you ever wonder what's really going through the mind of someone accused of a brutal crime? Like, do they know they're doomed, or are they still convinced they're the smartest person in the room? In this episode, Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke dissect the strange legal defense of Bryan Kohberger—alleged murderer of four college students in Idaho—and whether he's just brainstorming his way into a deeper hole. From bizarre alibi attempts to the ever-changing defense strategies, it's a wild ride through the mind of someone who thought they had the "perfect crime" figured out—until, you know, they left behind a knife sheath. But hey, at what point does a legal defense start to sound more like a game of "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks"? #BryanKohberger #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #CrimePodcast #FBIAnalysis #LegalDefense #MurderMystery Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Breaking Down The FULL Delphi 'Bridge Guy' Video With Ret FBI Robin Dreeke Was Bridge Guy really the killer, or have we been chasing the wrong shadow all along? The infamous video of the Delphi case has long been treated as the smoking gun, but what if it's just smoke? Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke dissect the eerie footage, questioning the long-held assumption that the man seen on the bridge is the murderer. Were the girls truly being coerced, or were they simply navigating their way down the hill on their own? And if Bridge Guy isn't the key suspect, why was the entire case seemingly built around him? Then, there's the conveniently "lost" alleged confession of Kegan Klein, the man who was actively communicating with the girls that very day. So many questions, so few answers, and a case that feels more like a series of wild leaps than solid conclusions.

FBI Behavioral Analyst on Why Kevin Franke Didn't Act Sooner How do you go from parenting to full-blown exorcisms? That's the twisted reality of the alleged abuse unfolding in the Ruby Franke and Jodi Hildebrandt saga. What started as a strict religious upbringing spiraled into something far more sinister—kids being duct-taped, starved, and subjected to cruel punishments, all under the guise of “purging uncleanliness.” But how did Ruby go from a popular mommy vlogger to someone who saw her own children as demons? And was Jodi the puppet master, manipulating Ruby for her own twisted needs? Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke break down the psychological manipulation, cult-like tactics, and sheer horror behind this case. From Jodi's alleged possession performances to Kevin Franke's apparent addiction to Ruby, it's a deep dive into a world where control, abuse, and religious extremism collided—leaving the most vulnerable to suffer. Did Jodi truly believe in what she was preaching, or was she just cashing in on control and chaos? And how do people so fully lose themselves in a belief system that they justify harming their own children? #TrueCrime #RubyFranke #JodiHildebrandt #HiddenKillers #FBIAnalysis #PsychologicalManipulation #CultBehavior Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Could The Bryan Kohberger 'Autism Argument' Humanize Him or Harden the Jury Against Him? Is autism spectrum disorder a factor in criminal behavior, or are we just looking for answers in the wrong places? The debate around mental health in high-profile criminal cases is as heated as ever, but when it comes to the alleged actions of Bryan Kohberger, the prosecution is doing everything it can to keep discussions of his mental state far, far away from the jury's ears. Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke dive deep into the murky waters of mental health and the law, questioning whether autism is misunderstood in criminal investigations. Why is the prosecution so determined to remove any argument related to Kohberger's mental state? Would an insanity defense even hold up in court, or would it just be a distraction from the hard evidence—like DNA, cell phone pings, and a suspiciously well-timed blackout on the night in question? And then there's the bigger question: Is mental health something courts should consider more often, or are we just making excuses for behavior that should simply be judged on cold, hard facts? What's the right balance between justice and understanding? #BryanKohberger #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #AutismAndCrime #CrimeInvestigation #CourtroomDrama #DNAEvidence Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
