On Christmas Eve 2019, 25‑year‑old hairstylist Kevin Bacon left his home in Swartz Creek, Michigan, for what he believed would be a simple meetup arranged through a dating app. When he failed to show up for Christmas breakfast, his family's worry sparked a search that uncovered a nightmare. Investigators traced Kevin's last messages to the rural home of Mark Latunski, a man with a long history of severe mental illness and alarming behavior. What police found there stunned even seasoned detectives. This episode examines Kevin's vibrant life, the digital trail that led authorities to the truth, and the systemic failures that allowed a dangerous individual to slip through the cracks. It's a story of a community shaken, a family forever changed, and the urgent questions raised about safety in the age of online connection.   Join Patreon here to binge bonus content! Crime Curious is creating a kick-ass exclusive listener experience | Patreon Want to just donate to the show?

A firearm was recovered from Michael McKee's Chicago condo. The NIBIN ballistics database allegedly matched it to shell casings found where Spencer and Monique Tepe were shot sixteen times. That's how fast this case unraveled—two bodies on December 30th, an arrest 350 miles away on January 10th.McKee allegedly went dark on his phone for 18 hours during the murder window. Swapped stolen plates from two different states onto his vehicle. Had over a decade of surgical training in precision and planning.Investigators still caught him in 11 days.True Crime Today examines both sides: the forensic investigation that caught a man who allegedly tried not to be caught, and the defense strategy that will try to create reasonable doubt anyway.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the investigative architecture. The surveillance footage analysis that first flagged McKee's vehicle. The NIBIN ballistics hit. The coordination between Columbus Police, FBI, Chicago PD, and Illinois authorities.Coffindaffer explains what an 18-hour phone blackout actually tells investigators—and how they reconstruct movements when someone has deliberately created a digital gap. The stolen Ohio and Arizona plates looked like counter-surveillance. They became their own forensic trail.Then defense attorney Eric Faddis reveals the playbook McKee's team is preparing. The pretrial fight to exclude testimony about alleged abuse never reported to police. The hearsay battle over three statements Monique allegedly told friends—that McKee could "kill her at any time," that she would "always be his wife."She can't testify. Can her words still convict him?For every piece of evidence, Eric reveals the innocent explanation the defense might offer. If acquittal isn't realistic, what does a "win" look like?#MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #TepeMurders #TrueCrimeToday #JenniferCoffindaffer #EricFaddis #NIBINBallistics #FBIForensics #DefenseStrategyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In the early hours of a February morning in Michigan, a 911 dispatcher receives a call that immediately raises concern. A woman tells the operator that “things got out of hand” and that they were “supposed to leave yesterday.” What first sounds like confusion soon reveals a far more serious situation involving 17 year old Austin Pikaart.Investigators later learn that Austin's mother, Katie Austin Lee, had given her son a combination of medications, believing it would put them both to sleep permanently. When that plan failed and Austin remained alive but unresponsive, events escalated further before authorities arrived at the apartment.Police found Austin deceased and Katie refusing to cooperate. During the investigation, she claimed the incident was part of a mutual agreement, saying her son did not want to turn 18. Prosecutors rejected that explanation. Katie Austin Lee later pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including second degree murder, and was sentenced to 60 to 90 years in prison.Austin is remembered as a thoughtful and intelligent teenager whose life was cut short before he had the chance to reach adulthood. This case raises difficult questions about control, responsibility, and the warning signs that can go unnoticed.Follow True Crime Recaps for weekly cases that examine real investigations and the justice system.

Defense attorney Eric Faddis joins Hidden Killers to break down three of the most followed cases in true crime—the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping, the Charity Beallis family deaths, and the newly unsealed McKee affidavit.Nancy Guthrie, 84, was taken from her Tucson home. She's the mother of Today show anchor Savannah Guthrie. Investigators confirmed forced entry, DNA evidence, and bitcoin ransom demands sent to media outlets. Pacemaker sync data may establish the timeline. No suspects have been identified. Faddis analyzes the legal landscape—cryptocurrency evidence, medical device data at trial, and how law enforcement's conflicting public statements become defense material.Charity Beallis and her twins were shot to death December 3rd in Arkansas—one day after her divorce was finalized. Her father says she was shot twice. Two months, no arrest. The history includes a 2025 arrest for allegedly choking Charity, substantiated child maltreatment, and a prior wife dead in 2012 under similar circumstances. Faddis walks through what's causing the delay and what defense strategy emerges from this background.The McKee affidavit documents alleged obsession spanning eight years. Surveillance footage shows Michael McKee in the Tepes' yard while they were away. Stolen plates on his vehicle. Years of threats. A phone that went dark during the murder window. Automatic weapon or silencer specifications. No forced entry. Faddis breaks down what the prosecution is building and identifies potential defense challenges.Three cases. Three different evidence profiles. Three different stages of investigation and prosecution.Eric Faddis provides the legal framework for understanding each—what prosecutors have, what they need, and what the people at the center of these investigations should be thinking about their exposure right now.#NancyGuthrie #CharityBeallis #MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrime #CriminalDefense #LegalAnalysisJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The government of the U.S. Virgin Islands launched a sweeping civil investigation into Jeffrey Epstein to expose how he used the territory as a hub for sex trafficking, money laundering, and regulatory capture. The USVI lawsuit accused Epstein of operating a criminal enterprise from Little St. James with the knowledge, cooperation, or willful blindness of banks, service providers, and wealthy associates who enabled his operations. Investigators focused on Epstein's financial networks, travel logistics, staffing pipelines, and the flow of cash that sustained years of abuse far from mainland scrutiny. The case sought accountability not only for Epstein's crimes but for the ecosystem that protected him, arguing that his island operation could not have functioned without elite facilitators. While the USVI ultimately settled with Epstein's estate, the investigation cracked open the mechanics of impunity that allowed him to thrive. It reframed Epstein not as a lone monster, but as the beneficiary of systemic indulgence by powerful people.Within that context, Glenn Dubin emerges as a deeply troubling figure whose proximity to Epstein went far beyond casual acquaintance. Dubin and his family maintained a long-standing relationship with Epstein, including documented social interactions and connections that overlapped with the period of Epstein's known trafficking activity. While Dubin has denied wrongdoing, the USVI's investigative posture placed pressure on individuals like him precisely because their wealth and access helped normalize Epstein's presence in elite circles long after his crimes were public. Dubin's continued association with Epstein, even after the 2008 conviction, reflects the moral bankruptcy the investigation sought to expose: powerful men choosing convenience and influence over basic human decency. The criticism is not about legal guilt alone, but about judgment, responsibility, and complicity by silence. In the USVI's accounting, figures like Dubin represent how Epstein stayed protected—by people who knew enough to walk away, but didn't.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Today's Headlines: The Epstein files continue to ripple outward. Hillary and Bill Clinton are pushing back on House Republicans by agreeing to testify about Epstein only if the hearing is public, after being subpoenaed for a closed-door session. House Oversight Chair James Comer wants the testimony recorded but not publicly aired, while Epstein's longtime benefactor Les Wexner is expected to give his own deposition later this month. Meanwhile, Brad Karp resigned as chair of powerhouse law firm Paul Weiss after emails revealed his close ties to Epstein, offering yet another reminder of how insulated powerful people stayed for years. Elsewhere, the Trump administration rolled out a new rule making it easier to fire roughly 50,000 senior federal employees, raising alarms about turning the civil service into a political patronage system. Trump also delivered a very on-brand speech at the National Prayer Breakfast, touching on missiles, enemies, and his personal afterlife odds. On the economy front, January layoffs spiked to their highest level since 2009, while hiring hit historic lows, signaling a cooling job market. Investigators are still searching for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today Show host Savannah Guthrie, as authorities investigate a possible kidnapping and ransom demands. And finally, in lighter news, the Winter Olympics kick off in Milan tonight — followed by Bad Bunny on Sunday.  Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: PBS News: Hillary Clinton calls for public hearing in House Epstein investigation Threads - Ali Vitali: Les Wexner expected for House Oversight deposition on Feb. 18th CNN: Chairman of major law firm resigns after Epstein emails become public Axios: Trump administration makes it easier to fire thousands of federal employees PBS: WATCH: Trump says he 'probably should make it' to heaven in wide-ranging remarks at National Prayer Breakfast CNBC: Layoffs in January were the highest to start a year since 2009, Challenger says AP News: Savannah Guthrie's missing mother is 'still out there,' sheriff says, but no suspects NBC News: How to watch the Milan Cortina opening ceremony Morning Announcements is produced by Sami Sage and edited by Grace Hernandez-Johnson Learn more about your ad choices.

The first reported ransom deadline has come and gone in the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie's mother, Nancy Guthrie, as investigators continue to evaluate the credibility of ransom communications. Authorities say the case remains active and complex, with additional deadlines and developments potentially ahead. What's Up #STSNation, Welcome to the global phenomenon bringing you the #BestGuests in #TrueCrime. The investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie has entered a critical phase after a reported ransom deadline passed, raising urgent questions about the authenticity and intent behind ransom communications now under review by law enforcement. In this episode of Surviving the Survivor, we examine what happens when ransom deadlines lapse, how investigators assess real versus fake threats, and what this moment means as federal and local agencies continue their race to find Nancy and bring her home.Support the show & be a part of #STSNation:Donate to STS' Trial Travel: Https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/GJ...VENMO: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcastCheck out STS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSupport the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorEmail: SurvivingTheSurvivor@gmail.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Five days in with no suspects, the investigation around Nancy Guthrie is now intensely focused on the people in her life. FBI agents carrying forensic extraction equipment were seen entering the home of Nancy's daughter Annie and her husband Tommaso Cioni. The couple were the last to see Nancy before her disappearance. The sheriff has confirmed this is standard procedure and delivered a pointed warning to media outlets naming potential suspects without verification, calling it reckless and potentially damaging to the case.The family released a video statement that former federal law enforcement analysts have described as strategically directed by authorities. Savannah Guthrie asked for proof of life. She humanized her mother. She spoke directly to whoever might have her. Every word was deliberate.A fifty-thousand-dollar FBI reward is now in play. Tips are coming in by the hundreds. Over a hundred investigators are working the case. And the behavioral landscape is getting more complicated by the hour — with imposter ransom demands, national media pressure, and a presidential pledge of federal resources all adding noise to the signal.On True Crime Today, Robin Dreeke — former FBI Special Agent and Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — returns for Part 2 to explain how investigators read the people closest to a case like this. How behavioral assessment prioritizes leads. How forensic extraction works as an investigative tool. How grief and deception present differently under pressure. And what happens to the person who did this when the whole country is watching.#NancyGuthrie #TrueCrimeToday #RobinDreeke #FBIBehavioralAnalysis #SavannahGuthrie #Kidnapping #FBIReward #PimaCounty #BehavioralProfiling #TrueCrime2026Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Investigators have now laid out the most detailed timeline of the night Nancy Guthrie was taken. Her doorbell camera disconnected at 1:47 AM. Camera software registered a person at 2:12 AM — but there is no footage because Nancy had no cloud subscription. Her pacemaker app disconnected from her phone at 2:28 AM. From first intrusion signal to last digital trace: forty-one minutes.Thursday's press conference brought significant corrections to earlier reporting. The Pima County Sheriff denied forced entry and confirmed no cameras were smashed or destroyed. The doorbell camera was disconnected and has been forensically processed with no recoverable video. Ransom notes sent to media outlets referenced specific items — an Apple Watch and a floodlight — but no proof of life accompanied them. No follow-up communication has come in. The FBI confirmed one arrest for an imposter ransom demand and announced a fifty-thousand-dollar reward.On True Crime Today, Robin Dreeke — former FBI Special Agent and Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — walks through the behavioral evidence. The deliberate disconnection of the camera. The knowledge of Nancy's subscription status. The decision to contact media instead of family. The sustained silence as a woman who needs daily medication to survive enters day five without it. Dreeke applies decades of FBI behavioral training to the patterns that are emerging — and explains what those patterns tell investigators about who they should be looking for.#NancyGuthrie #TrueCrimeToday #RobinDreeke #FBIBehavioralAnalysis #SavannahGuthrie #Kidnapping #ProofOfLife #PimaCounty #FBIReward #TrueCrime2026Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie is now focused on the people in her world as much as the crime scene itself. Agents with forensic extraction devices entered the home of Nancy's daughter Annie and son-in-law Tommaso Cioni, the last people to see her before she vanished. The Pima County Sheriff has confirmed no suspects and no persons of interest, and has called unverified media reports naming potential suspects reckless and potentially harmful to the case.The Guthrie family released a video statement described by former federal law enforcement analysts as carefully directed by authorities. Every line was strategic — from humanizing Nancy to asking directly for proof of life. Meanwhile, tips are flooding in, a fifty-thousand-dollar reward has been posted, and over a hundred investigators are working the case.In Part 2 of this interview, Robin Dreeke — former FBI Special Agent and Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — explains how investigators behaviorally assess everyone in a victim's orbit. How do you tell grief from guilt? What does a forensic device extraction really accomplish beyond recovering data? How do premature public accusations change the landscape for investigators, for the accused, and for whoever actually did this? And what happens to the behavioral dynamics if this case goes cold?#NancyGuthrie #RobinDreeke #HiddenKillers #FBIBehavioralAnalysis #SavannahGuthrie #Kidnapping #TrueCrime #CellebriteForensics #PimaCountySheriff #TrueCrime2026Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Charity Beallis and her six-year-old twins were found shot to death December 3rd in Bonanza, Arkansas. Two months later, no arrest. Charity's father says he viewed her body and she was shot twice—chest and forehead. If accurate, that eliminates suicide. So what's taking so long?The timeline speaks for itself. Divorce finalized December 2nd. Joint custody awarded. Twins scheduled to return to Randall Beallis December 5th. One day before that transfer, Charity and the children were dead.Defense attorney Eric Faddis analyzes what's likely happening behind the scenes and what legal thresholds investigators might be trying to meet.The documented history is extensive. Randall was arrested February 2025 for allegedly choking Charity in front of their children. Charges were reduced to a misdemeanor. Child maltreatment was substantiated for both twins in July. His attorney says he's cooperating and was not responsible for the deaths.Then there's 2012. Randall's second wife Shawna was found dead with a gunshot wound to the forehead. Ruled suicide. The case was reopened in 2021 after statements to police, then closed because evidence had been destroyed by court order. Faddis explains what happens when a defendant has a prior death in their history that mirrors the current case.Three days after the bodies were found, investigators discovered family photos, children's artwork, and a necklace with the twins' names in a dumpster at an address connected to Randall through court records. No comment from law enforcement.Two months of silence. A mother reportedly shot twice. Two children dead. A custody battle that ended the day before the murders. A prior wife dead under strikingly similar circumstances.Eric Faddis breaks down what investigators need to make an arrest—and what defense attorneys are likely preparing.#CharityBeallis #BeallisTwins #RandallBeallis #BonanzaArkansas #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #EricFaddis #DomesticViolence #TripleHomicide #ArkansasCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Savannah Guthrie's 84-year-old mother Nancy was taken from her Tucson home against her will. Forced entry confirmed. DNA evidence recovered. Ransom notes demanding bitcoin sent to media outlets including TMZ. The FBI is now involved, and no suspects have been publicly identified.Criminal defense attorney Eric Faddis breaks down what investigators and prosecutors are likely building behind the scenes—and what a defense would look like if charges are ever filed.The ransom strategy is unusual. Whoever sent those notes went to media, not family. That decision creates immediate legal exposure regardless of whether the sender is the abductor. The notes reportedly contain details about the inside of Nancy's home, raising questions about authentication and chain of custody if this reaches trial.Bitcoin as a ransom vehicle changes the investigative playbook. Cryptocurrency is traceable but presents unique challenges. Faddis explains how prosecutors approach digital currency evidence and where defense attorneys find vulnerabilities.The DNA recovered from the home belongs to Nancy—but the sheriff won't confirm whether it's blood. That distinction shapes what charges can ultimately be brought. Evidence of presence differs from evidence of harm under Arizona law.Pacemaker data may be key. Investigators are reportedly using sync records to establish when Nancy went out of range of her home devices. Medical device evidence is emerging legal territory, and Faddis explains how it gets introduced—and challenged.The sheriff's public statements have already created problems. He told NBC Nancy "was harmed at the home" then walked it back. Defense attorneys pay attention to contradictions like that.Nancy requires daily medication described as potentially fatal to go without. Her age, mobility limitations, and medical dependence all elevate sentencing exposure for whoever is eventually charged.Eric Faddis breaks down the prosecution and defense angles in one of the highest-profile kidnapping cases in recent memory.#NancyGuthrie #SavannahGuthrie #TucsonKidnapping #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #FBI #HiddenKillers #Kidnapping #BitcoinRansom #CriminalDefenseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The kidnapping of Nancy Guthrie—Savannah Guthrie's 84-year-old mother—remains unsolved. Investigators have confirmed forced entry at her Tucson home, DNA evidence belonging to Nancy, and ransom notes demanding bitcoin payment. Those notes went to media outlets, not the family. The FBI is involved. No suspects have been identified publicly.Defense attorney Eric Faddis joins Hidden Killers Live to analyze what we know and what it means for any future prosecution.Start with the ransom notes. Sending demands to TMZ and local news stations instead of family is an unusual play. Faddis breaks down the legal exposure that creates—even if the person who sent them isn't the abductor.The DNA confirmation raises as many questions as it answers. The sheriff says it belongs to Nancy but won't say whether it's blood. That matters. Evidence showing someone was present in their own home is different from evidence showing they were harmed there. The distinction affects charging decisions.Medical device evidence may prove critical. Investigators are using Nancy's pacemaker sync data to establish she went out of range around 2 a.m. This type of evidence is relatively new in courtrooms. Faddis explains how it gets introduced and where defense attorneys push back.The sheriff's public statements have already created complications. He told NBC Nancy "was harmed at the home" and later said he misspoke. Defense attorneys file that away for later.Jurisdiction remains unclear. Arizona has kidnapping statutes, but FBI involvement opens the door to federal charges. Faddis explains what determines venue—and which court typically delivers harsher outcomes.Nancy's age, limited mobility, and dependence on daily medication the sheriff described as potentially fatal to miss all factor into sentencing exposure.A high-profile victim, unusual ransom tactics, and emerging evidence technology.

 It's been two months since Charity Beallis and her twins were found dead in Bonanza, Arkansas. No arrest. No charges. Charity's father told Hidden Killers he saw her body—shot twice, chest and forehead. If his account is accurate, suicide isn't a plausible explanation.The timing is impossible to ignore. Divorce finalized December 2nd. Joint custody granted. Children to return to Randall Beallis December 5th. Bodies discovered December 3rd.Defense attorney Eric Faddis joins Hidden Killers Live to examine what this silence from investigators typically means, what evidence they might still be gathering, and what legal strategy emerges when a defendant has the documented history Randall Beallis has.That history includes a February 2025 arrest for allegedly choking Charity in front of their children. Felony charges reduced to misdemeanor. Child maltreatment substantiated for both twins in July. His attorney maintains he's cooperating and was not responsible.The history goes back further. In 2012, Randall's second wife Shawna was found dead with a gunshot wound to the forehead. Ruled suicide. Reopened in 2021 after police received statements. Closed again—evidence destroyed by court order in 2014.Physical evidence surfaced quickly. Three days after the bodies were found, family photos and a necklace bearing the twins' names were discovered in a dumpster at an apartment complex tied to Randall through court documents. Investigators have declined to comment.Two shots. Two months. No arrest. A prior wife's death under similar circumstances. A custody timeline that reads like a countdown.Faddis walks through what prosecutors need to bring charges, what defense attorneys prepare when their client has this kind of documented past, and what the person responsible for these deaths should be thinking right now.#CharityBeallis #BeallisTwins #RandallBeallis #ArkansasCrime #EricFaddis #HiddenKillersLive #TrueCrime #DomesticViolence #TripleHomicide #ColdCaseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Forensic extraction devices at the daughter's home. A sheriff calling suspect reports reckless. A family video scripted by investigators. More than a hundred people working the case and not a single suspect named. The investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance is now as much about reading the people around her as finding the person who took her.Agents were photographed entering the home of Annie Guthrie and Tommaso Cioni — the last people to see Nancy before she disappeared — carrying what appears to be a Cellebrite device used to extract encrypted and deleted data from phones. The sheriff says that is standard. He also says there are no suspects, no persons of interest, and that reporting otherwise is irresponsible.Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, Robin Dreeke — former FBI Special Agent and Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — returns for Part 2 to break down how investigators behaviorally assess the people in a victim's world. How they separate grief from guilt. What digital forensic extraction reveals about a person beyond the files on their phone. How massive media attention and public accusations reshape the entire investigation. And what happens when a case with this much heat goes quiet.Your questions. Robin's answers.

Nancy Guthrie vanished from her own home at eighty-four years old. She didn't wander. She didn't leave voluntarily. Investigators arrived to find blood at the entry and inside the house — and immediately treated the residence as a crime scene.Then came a sequence that defies easy explanation. The scene was released after roughly thirty hours. Activity stopped. And then investigators surged back. Crime scene tape went up a second time. Canine units deployed. Grid searches expanded. And attention locked onto the garage.You don't reopen a crime scene without new information forcing your hand. That reversal is one of the most significant signals in this case — and law enforcement hasn't publicly explained what triggered it.Nancy's children stepped forward with a public video plea. Savannah Guthrie and her siblings spoke about their mother with love and restraint, describing her faith, her resilience, and her bond with her grandchildren. But buried in that plea was a pointed request — proof of life. That phrase carries weight. It signals uncertainty about whether communications claiming to involve Nancy are legitimate.Reports of ransom-style messages have surfaced — references to cryptocurrency, claims about the crime scene, descriptions of clothing. Law enforcement acknowledges awareness but has verified nothing. The authenticity gap is wide, and it matters. Genuine kidnapping operations establish leverage fast. The timeline here doesn't track with a straightforward abduction.Federal resources have poured in. Specialized units handling digital forensics, communication tracing, and kidnapping dynamics are now involved. That escalation says everything about how seriously this is being treated.Nancy Guthrie depends on daily medication and lives with chronic pain. She is vulnerable in ways that make every passing hour more dangerous. Her family isn't asking for theories. They're asking for their mother back. Tony Brueski breaks down the full picture — the evidence, the patterns, and the questions that remain unanswered.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Eric's been investigating the paranormal for nearly two decades—but lately, the job feels different. It's not just dark buildings and equipment anymore. It's impressions that hit out of nowhere. Names he can't place. Details he shouldn't know. And that unnerving moment when you realize the “little voice” isn't random… it's consistent.He talks about what changed: how yoga and meditation made him quiet enough to notice what he used to ignore, why the last couple of years turned the volume up, and what it's like trying to live a normal life while picking up other people's emotions like they're your own.And then there's Cathy—because as Eric's intuition sharpens, her new house starts making itself known in ways she can't brush off. Communication, boundaries, signs, and the strange learning curve of realizing that abilities aren't just something you have…they're something you have to manage.#PsychicAwakening #Intuition #EmpathLife #DevelopingAbilities #ParanormalPodcast #EnergyWork #Meditation #SpiritCommunication #HauntedHouse #RealGhostStoriesLove real ghost stories?

The disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie has now become a full-scale criminal investigation—and the evidence left inside her home is chilling. Investigators report signs of forced entry, blood near the doorway, and a suspected ransom note, all pointing toward a violent abduction rather than a voluntary disappearance. Tonight on Police Off The Cuff, retired NYPD Sergeant Bill Cannon breaks down the latest developments from the Pima County Sheriff's Department—what the crime scene tells us, how ransom notes are analyzed, and why this case fits the profile of a targeted kidnapping. Why was Nancy's phone left behind? Who knew her routine? And was this crime planned by someone close to her? We examine the timeline, forensic evidence, neighborhood canvass, and the investigative tools being used right now—DNA testing, handwriting analysis, cell tower data, and surveillance footage. This episode focuses on facts, not rumors, and looks at the case through the lens of real police procedure.

Two months since Charity Beallis and her six-year-old twins Eliana and Maverick were found shot to death in Bonanza, Arkansas. No arrest. No suspect named publicly. No official autopsy released.Now her father is speaking out about what he saw.Randy Powell tells Hidden Killers he viewed Charity's body at the morgue. According to Powell, she was shot twice — in the chest and between the eyes. If accurate, two gunshot wounds makes self-infliction essentially impossible. Someone killed her. And no one has been charged.The deaths came one day after Charity's divorce from Dr. Randall Beallis was finalized. According to his attorney, joint custody was awarded and the children were to return to their father December 5th. The bodies were found December 3rd.In February 2025, Randall Beallis was arrested and charged with aggravated assault involving choking, domestic battery, and child endangerment. Charity emailed the medical board: "I had to call 911 on Sunday night for choking & beating me up. My two 6 year olds saw everything. We are traumatized."In July, Arkansas State Police substantiated child maltreatment for both twins. In October, Randall pleaded guilty to misdemeanor domestic battery and received a suspended sentence.Three days after the bodies were found, a dumpster diver discovered family belongings at an apartment complex in Fort Smith — photos, children's artwork, a necklace with the twins' names. The address matches Randall Beallis' February 2025 arrest report. Investigators have not commented.Randall Beallis has not been arrested or charged in connection with the deaths. His attorney says he was not responsible and is cooperating fully.Someone knows what happened that day.#CharityBeallis #TrueCrimeToday #BonanzaArkansas #RandallBeallis #ElianaBeallis #MaverickBeallis #ArkansasMurder #DomesticViolence #TrueCrimeNews #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

President Trump signed a $1.2 trillion bill to end the government shutdown. The funding for DHS lasts for 14 days as Democrats continue with a bunch of outrageous demands. Bill and Hillary Clinton will testify before Congress, which will be made available to the public. Congressman Chip Roy has been fighting to safeguard our elections since 2024, now his more robust Save America Act is a new and improved version of the widely supported SAVE Act. The bill adds a Voter ID requirement for voting in federal elections while maintaining the original bill's proof-of-citizenship requirement for voter registration. It will be up to Senate Leader Thune to bring this to the Senate floor and create a verbal filibuster. This will be where Democrats have to take the floor and explain to the American people why having and ID to vote and proof of US citizenship to vote is a bad idea. CNN has already blown the lid off of this argument as roughly 80% of Americans agree that voter ID should be required. Of all places, Texas is ground zero for an uprising of Islam and a stronghold of the Muslim brotherhood. Congressman Roy looks to places like London and Paris, which have been overrun by Muslims as a warning to what will happen in America. A bio-lab in Las Vegas ran by Chinese nationals was raided recently. Inside the lab they found blood, tissue and other bodily fluid samples and serums; and thousands of vials of unlabeled fluids and suspected biological material. Investigators also found "pathogen-labeled containers” with labels such as “dengue fever,” “HIV,” and “malaria,” the report said, along with 1,000 mice. Congressman Chip Roy unpacks the Save America act and the future of our elections and our country. Featuring: Rep.

Joan Bernal's episodes originally aired in October 2020. In December of 1988, Joan Bernal, her husband, and their children had plans to leave their home in Joliet, Illinois, and head to Texas to visit her husband's family for the holidays. Things didn't go as planned, and they weren't able to bring Joan's children from a previous marriage due to custody issues. According to Joan's husband, Gil, they decided to make the trip anyway. He later told investigators that Joan became upset during the drive and that he dropped her off near a bus stop in McAlester, Oklahoma, and gave her cash so she could return to Illinois. The plan, he said, was for Joan to pick up her other children and then fly to Texas to meet them. Joan Bernal has never been seen or heard from again.Over the years, this case has been marked by conflicting accounts, unanswered questions, and lingering uncertainty about what truly happened to Joan. Investigators and Joan's loved ones have wrestled with whether she could still be alive, whether foul play was involved, and why no verified trace of her has ever surfaced.Update:In December 2025, 37 years after Joan Bernal was last seen, the case took a significant turn. A Will County grand jury returned a sealed indictment charging Joan's husband, Gilbert Bernal, with first-degree murder in connection with her disappearance. Stay tuned through the end of Part 2 for more details on the recent developments in this case.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Investigators just held a news conference on the latest information into Savanna Guthrie’s missing mom, and several moments jumped out to us. First, the sheriff was asked twice about whether a ransom has been asked surrounding the abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, and both times the sheriff did NOT say no. Instead he said his team was following all of their investigative leads. The sheriff also told reporters that DNA samples processed from Guthrie’s home have not implicated any specific suspect. Also of note, despite the urgency in finding Guthrie given that she’s not with her necessary daily medication, the sheriff said - barring any major developments - the next press conference wouldn’t take place for another 48 hours.

The probable cause affidavit in the Michael McKee case has been unsealed, and the details are damning. According to court documents filed in Franklin County, McKee allegedly stalked his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer for weeks before their December 30th murders—and drove 900 miles round trip in just 17 hours to carry out the killings.Here's what we now know from the affidavit:McKee allegedly entered the Tepe property on December 6th while the couple was at the Big Ten Championship game in Indianapolis. Surveillance video captured him on the property for several hours. Monique left the game at halftime, reportedly upset about something involving her ex-husband.Witnesses told investigators McKee had threatened Monique for years, allegedly telling her he could "kill her at any time" and that she would "always be his wife." At least one witness reported allegations of strangulation and forced sex during their marriage.On December 29th, McKee allegedly left his cell phone at the hospital where he worked in Rockford, Illinois. That phone showed no activity for 17 hours—the exact window needed to drive 450 miles to Columbus, commit the murders at approximately 3:50 a.m., and return.Investigators tracked a silver SUV with a distinctive window sticker to McKee.

Kicking off with escalating national tensions, today’s Rickey Smiley Morning Show highlights the major shift in federal enforcement as ICE and DHS agents in Minneapolis move to immediate body‑camera requirements after public outrage over two fatal shootings in the city. Officials say the mandate will expand nationwide as funding allows, with both bipartisan support and scrutiny shaping the rollout. Meanwhile, daytime TV gets another shake‑up as Sherri Shepherd’s syndicated talk show is officially canceled after four seasons. Producers emphasize that the decision reflects the changing daytime landscape—not a decline in the show’s performance—and say they are already exploring digital‑platform opportunities for its future. Civil rights attorney Ben Crump joins the RSMS crew, bringing insight shaped by decades of landmark advocacy. Recently named the Top Black Newsmaker of the 21st Century due to his impact on major civil rights cases—from George Floyd to Breonna Taylor—Crump continues expanding his reach through justice‑oriented initiatives and national conversations about constitutional rights and government overreach. The show closes on a deeply urgent note as the FBI intensifies its search for Savannah Guthrie’s missing mother, Nancy Guthrie, who authorities believe was abducted from her Arizona home. Investigators report forced entry, hundreds of active leads, and an urgent need to locate her due to life‑sustaining medication requirements.

In May 2013, Tim Bosma left his rural Ontario home for a late night test drive with two men interested in buying his truck. He never returned. What followed was a complex investigation that uncovered a case driven not by need, but by entitlement.Authorities soon focused on Dellen Millard, a wealthy aviation heir known for risk taking and a pattern of reckless behavior. Investigators pieced together evidence including burner phones, GPS data, and messages referencing so called “missions.” Their findings led to a custom built industrial device owned by Millard, where evidence later confirmed Tim Bosma's death.As the investigation widened, police also connected Millard to the disappearance of his former girlfriend, Laura Babcock, and the death of his father, Wayne Millard, which had initially been ruled a suicide. Millard and accomplice Mark Smich were ultimately convicted, and Millard is now serving multiple life sentences.This case raises an unsettling question about power, privilege, and accountability. When consequences feel distant, how far will someone go?Follow True Crime Recaps for weekly cases that examine the justice system and the stories that continue to raise difficult questions.

Investigators just held a news conference on the latest information into Savanna Guthrie’s missing mom, and several moments jumped out to us. First, the sheriff was asked twice about whether a ransom has been asked surrounding the abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, and both times the sheriff did NOT say no. Instead he said his team was following all of their investigative leads. The sheriff also told reporters that DNA samples processed from Guthrie’s home have not implicated any specific suspect. Also of note, despite the urgency in finding Guthrie given that she’s not with her necessary daily medication, the sheriff said - barring any major developments - the next press conference wouldn’t take place for another 48 hours.

Joan Bernal's episodes originally aired in October 2020. In December of 1988, Joan Bernal, her husband, and their children had plans to leave their home in Joliet, Illinois, and head to Texas to visit her husband's family for the holidays. Things didn't go as planned, and they weren't able to bring Joan's children from a previous marriage due to custody issues. According to Joan's husband, Gil, they decided to make the trip anyway. He later told investigators that Joan became upset during the drive and that he dropped her off near a bus stop in McAlester, Oklahoma, and gave her cash so she could return to Illinois. The plan, he said, was for Joan to pick up her other children and then fly to Texas to meet them. Joan Bernal has never been seen or heard from again.Over the years, this case has been marked by conflicting accounts, unanswered questions, and lingering uncertainty about what truly happened to Joan. Investigators and Joan's loved ones have wrestled with whether she could still be alive, whether foul play was involved, and why no verified trace of her has ever surfaced.Update:In December 2025, 37 years after Joan Bernal was last seen, the case took a significant turn. A Will County grand jury returned a sealed indictment charging Joan's husband, Gilbert Bernal, with first-degree murder in connection with her disappearance.

September 1990. In Shaker Heights, Ohio, teenage honors student Lisa Lee Pruett vanishes into the night. A boy calls 911 when she does not arrive for a secret late-night meet-up. Police soon find her nearby, stabbed to death and left exposed.Lisa had just passed an important test and earned her driver's license. She was a Girl Scout, athlete, musician, and lover of poetry. Then her life was cut short.Investigators quickly focused on a troubled young man who lived a few blocks away. His name leaked, the media swarmed, and the case became a spectacle. Two years later, he was indicted on controversial testimony, tried under national attention, and ultimately acquitted. His life never recovered.Decades later, the murder remains unsolved.Now a former police officer, Michael Kelly, reopens the trail, determined to separate rumor from evidence and find the truth, if it is still there to be found. IN PUBLIC RECORD: A Journey to the Truth about a Murder and Trial—Michael Kelly

The forensic details from the Idaho student murders are finally public — and what they reveal about Xana Kernodle's final moments is both heartbreaking and remarkable.New court filings show the wound counts for all four victims: Kaylee Goncalves sustained 38 sharp-force wounds, Madison Mogen 28, Ethan Chapin 17, and Xana Kernodle 67. Xana took more wounds than the other three combined. But the autopsy findings go further. Kaylee, Maddie, and Ethan had no blood on their feet — they never stood up. Xana did. Blood on the bottoms of her bare feet proves she moved during the attack.Investigators found blood from the third-floor victims on the stairwell and bannister leading to the second floor. Since Kaylee and Maddie never stood, someone else carried that blood down. The evidence points to Xana encountering Kohberger upstairs, then fleeing — with him chasing her. Police documented defensive wounds between her fingers and cuts to the bones of her hand. She grabbed the blade. She fought until she couldn't anymore.Prosecutors believe her resistance is why Kohberger left behind the knife sheath that contained his DNA — the break that solved the case.We also cover Idaho State Police releasing nearly 2,800 crime scene photos last week, then pulling them hours later. The families had less than 15 minutes' warning — despite a court order already in place.

Michael McKee allegedly drove 350 miles from Chicago to Columbus, executed his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer, and drove back — all while his cell phone showed zero activity for 18 hours. Investigators say he used stolen license plates from Ohio and Arizona. He allegedly kept the murder weapon in his condo for eleven days. And police still caught him.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down how investigators built this case from surveillance footage, digital forensics, and a national ballistics database match. We examine the multi-jurisdictional coordination between four law enforcement agencies and why this case moved from bodies discovered to suspect arrested faster than anyone expected.Coffindaffer explains what a phone "going dark" signals to investigators, how stolen plates complicate vehicle tracking, and what the firearm suppressor allegation tells us about the level of premeditation prosecutors believe they can prove. This is the forensic blueprint of the McKee investigation.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #ColumbusOhio #FBI #JenniferCoffindaffer #TrueCrime #DoubleHomicide #NIBINBallistics #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two bodies discovered in a Columbus, Ohio home on December 30th. Eleven days later, a vascular surgeon is in custody 350 miles away. No eyewitnesses. No forced entry. A suspect who allegedly went dark on his cell phone for 18 hours and used stolen license plates from two different states. How did investigators connect the dots this fast?Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the forensic architecture of this case — the surveillance footage analysis that first identified Michael McKee's vehicle, the NIBIN ballistics database that allegedly linked a firearm found in his Chicago condo to the crime scene, and the multi-jurisdictional coordination between Columbus Police, FBI, Chicago PD, and Illinois authorities that culminated in an arrest in Rockford.We examine what it means when a suspect's phone shows zero activity during a murder window. Coffindaffer explains how investigators reconstruct movements when someone has deliberately created a digital gap. We dig into the stolen Ohio and Arizona plates allegedly used on McKee's vehicle and what that level of counter-surveillance tells investigators about premeditation.The indictment includes firearm specifications alleging either an automatic weapon or a suppressor — charged in the alternative. Why would prosecutors structure charges that way? What does it signal about the evidence they're holding?This case moved from discovery to arrest faster than most homicides involving a single jurisdiction. Coffindaffer walks us through what factors determine whether a case like this resolves quickly or goes cold — and why the forensic trail McKee allegedly left behind may have sealed his fate before investigators even knew his name.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #ColumbusOhioMurder #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBI #NIBINBallistics #TrueCrime #DoubleHomicide #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
