In April 2006, 23-year-old Christopher Lampkin was murdered in a Salem apartment, shot execution-style, and dismembered by Leonardo Garcia Gonzalez and Victor Gonzalez. His remains were stuffed into a duffel bag and fed to pigs at a Yamhill County farm, where police later recovered partial remains in a feed barrel. The killers were ordered to pay Lampkin's family $1 million, while charges against the farm owner and apartment complex were ultimately dismissed.https://linktr.ee/UnforbiddentruthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

Please note the prisoners were on speaker phone, on a prison tablet, so that's why it is so loud/why the quality is the way it is. This was a live interview I conducted on tik tok, which i occasionally do on Tuesday's. @unforbiddentruthpodcast is my username.Donald Ray MiddlebrooksIn 1987, Donald Ray Middlebrooks, along with his then-teenage wife Tammy Middlebrooks and accomplice Robert Brewington, kidnapped and brutally tortured 14-year-old Kerrick Majors in East Nashville. The attack followed Majors accidentally breaking a vase at a makeshift flea market, and descended into a racially charged and horrific hate crime involving torture, mutilation, and ultimately stabbing — with racial slurs and extreme violence central to the ordeal. Middlebrooks was convicted of first-degree murder and aggravated kidnapping, receiving a death sentence in 1989, later affirmed through retrial and appealAfter years of appeals, his execution was scheduled for December 2022 but was stayed amid concerns over the state's lethal injection protocol; as of early 2025, a new execution date has been set, though it remains on hold pending federal litigation.Steven J. WigginsSteven Wiggins, of Dickson, Tennessee, was convicted in August 2021 for the brutal killing of Sergeant Daniel Baker—shooting him multiple times during a traffic investigation, then dragging his body into the patrol car, impersonating him, and setting the vehicle ablaze with the body inside.The scope of his convictions included premeditated first-degree murder, felony murder, theft, impersonation, arson, tampering with evidence, and abuse of a corpse. In April 2022, he accepted a federal plea agreement on carjacking and firearms charges which resulted in a life sentence — prompting withdrawal of the federal death penalty notice, though the state-level death sentence remains active.He is currently on death row, and his legal team filed a motion for a new trial citing multiple errors in the original state proceedings.Jonathan Wesley StephensonJonathan Wesley Stephenson was convicted in 1990 in Cocke County for the premeditated, contract killing of his wife — alongside a related conspiracy conviction for hiring an accomplice. Initially sentenced to death plus 25 years, his case went through a complex appellate process. Due to sentencing irregularities, a new sentencing hearing followed, resulting in a life-without-parole term plus 60 years for conspiracy. However, that sentence was later vacated and resentenced to death again, which was affirmed by Tennessee's Supreme Court in 2006.He continued seeking relief — most recently filing a habeas corpus petition, which was dismissed in 2024 by the Tennessee Court of Criminal Appeals, affirming the legality of his death-plus-60‑year sentence.https://linktr.ee/UnforbiddentruthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

Donna Adelson Trial: Jailhouse Snitch Says She Offered Grand Piano for Favorable Testimony  The Trial of Donna Adelson took another shocking turn as jurors heard from a jailhouse witness who claims Donna tried to bribe her for favorable testimony. The inmate told the court that while the two were housed together, Donna offered her something completely out of the ordinary: a grand piano. It was a bizarre promise, but prosecutors argue it was a desperate attempt by the accused matriarch to buy her way out of accountability. According to the witness, Donna didn't just float the idea casually—she pressed the point, suggesting that she could arrange for the extravagant gift if the inmate would help her by testifying in a way that supported her defense. The inmate described how unusual and suspicious the offer felt, painting a picture of a woman who was still trying to manipulate the system even from behind bars. Prosecutors seized on this testimony to argue that Donna's mindset hasn't changed. Just as they claim she orchestrated a murder-for-hire plot for the benefit of her family, now, years later, she was still trying to pull strings from her jail cell—using wealth, influence, and extravagant promises to bend others to her will. For jurors, the story of a jailhouse “grand piano bribe” was almost surreal, but it underscored the prosecution's central theme: Donna Adelson is always plotting, always maneuvering, always working to stay in control. The defense, of course, will attack the credibility of a jailhouse snitch, arguing that inmates have every incentive to fabricate stories for their own benefit. But the detail and sheer oddity of this alleged bribe may be exactly what makes it stick in the minds of jurors. It's not just the money trail or the wiretaps anymore—it's the extreme lengths Donna Adelson was allegedly willing to go to protect herself, even from inside a cell. #DonnaAdelsonTrial #JailhouseSnitch #GrandPianoBribe #TrueCrimeTrial #DanMarkelMurder #CourtroomDrama #MurderForHireCase #DonnaAdelson #JusticeForDanMarkel #TrialCoverage Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

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

Deepfake Murder Cover-Up: James Craig's Shocking Jailhouse Plot EXPOSED! Witness the truly astonishing and disturbing aftermath of the alleged crime as James Craig's post-arrest actions escalate into a shocking series of cover-up attempts. This episode meticulously details the accusations of a calculated, desperate scheme, including a chilling and morally reprehensible request to his own teenage daughter: to create a deepfake video of Angela admitting to suicide. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis provides expert legal analysis on the profound and devastating impact such manipulative behavior has on a jury, discussing the stringent legal standards that determine whether jailhouse letters, confessions, or coerced statements are admissible as evidence. We delve into the formidable challenge a defense attorney faces in attempting to explain or justify a request as bizarre and ethically bankrupt as involving one's own child in a deepfake suicide conspiracy. Crucially, we explore how this type of post-arrest manipulation, if verified, can retroactively strengthen the prosecution's case by proving the defendant's consciousness of guilt and original intent. Could these desperate actions result in additional, severe charges for Craig, fundamentally altering the dynamics of the ongoing murder trial? We consider the intense emotional reaction a jury might experience when confronted with evidence that the victim's own child was allegedly drawn into such a disturbing cover-up scheme. Furthermore, we ask whether this kind of egregious, post-crime behavior might ultimately be even more persuasive to a jury than the complex forensic evidence itself. Eric Faddis will dissect how prosecutors can strategically use these actions to weave a compelling thematic narrative: that James Craig didn't just meticulously plan the murder, but he also meticulously planned and executed the aftermath. Finally, we discuss the profound legal and ethical implications when a defendant treats their own family members not as loved ones, but as mere pawns in a desperate bid to escape justice.

Michael Franzese, the former Colombo crime family capo who once served time in the same cell where Jeffrey Epstein died, told NewsNation that physically, it would have been “impossible” for Epstein to hang himself in that space. Franzese emphasized the lack of structural elements such as ceiling fixtures or a high bed to facilitate hanging—elements he believes were necessary but absent in that cellHe also expressed deep skepticism about the reported missteps of jail staff and malfunctioning cameras that night. Drawing from his own prison experience, where guard watches were rigorous and surveillance unbroken, Franzese said he “just can't buy” the idea that corrections officers slept through checks or that cameras conveniently failed—all details that form the backbone of the official suicide narrative. to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Suicide in Jeffrey Epstein's jail cell is 'impossible,' says mobster

Christopher Bennett is a native of Craigsville, Virginia, who made national headlines in 2003 when, at 18, he fatally shot his stepfather, Vincent McDorman. Bennett was subsequently convicted of capital murder as well as robbery and breaking and entering, accepting a plea deal that resulted in a sentence totaling 1,800 years—equivalent to three life terms under Virginia law.According to Bennett, he stumbled into the home after hearing his sister's cries and confronted his stepfather as he was allegedly molesting her. The case has sparked ongoing debate, with supporters portraying Bennett as a juvenile who acted to protect his siblings from abuse.Victoria McDorman, Bennett's younger sister, is central to both the case and the ongoing campaign for his clemency. She has publicly recounted enduring repeated abuse at the hands of their stepfather and described her brother's actions as brave and necessary. Victoria and other family members have participated in rallies—including one in 2020 in Craigsville—calling for Bennett's release, highlighting the trauma they endured and advocating for a reexamination of his sentence. In recent years, their story has attracted further attention through podcasts like True Crime Broads, which features Victoria's voice as she elaborates on those events and continues to champion her brother as a hero rather than a criminal.https://linktr.ee/UnforbiddentruthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

Kerrick Majors was a 14-year-old African American boy from Nashville, Tennessee, whose brutal, racially motivated murder in April 1987 became a symbol of both racial violence and justice in the American South. Described as a kind, respectful middle school student, Kerrick was abducted after a minor dispute over a broken vase with three white drifters—Donald and Tammy Middlebrooks and Robert Brewington—who falsely accused him of theft. They forced him into a wooded area where he was tortured over several hours—burned, beaten with brass knuckles, urinated on, slashed with knives, and stabbed to death while racial slurs were used against him.His body, left naked under a discarded mattress in a creek bed, bore signs of extreme cruelty, including a carved "X" on his chest. Police initially dismissed him as a runaway and delayed the investigation, which led to public outrage, disciplinary action against officers, and a $2 million lawsuit by Kerrick's family. The case resulted in historic convictions: Brewington received life plus 75 years, Tammy Middlebrooks received life with parole eligibility, and Donald Middlebrooks was sentenced to death—the first time in modern Tennessee history that a white person was condemned to death for murdering a Black child. The case remains significant for highlighting systemic racism, law enforcement negligence, and the rare pursuit of justice in a racially charged crime.https://linktr.ee/UnforbiddentruthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

In June 1997, Uwe Durbin was brutally tortured and murdered in Riverside, California. Durbin, who had been staying with Lester “Woody” Wilson and his wife Barbara Phillips, was accused by Wilson of stealing electronics from their home. In retaliation, Wilson and Phillips abducted Durbin at gunpoint and brought him back to their house. Over several hours, Durbin was savagely beaten, shot in the knee, strangled, and tortured with objects including battery-filled gloves. The attackers also brought chemical drain cleaner, allegedly intending to dissolve his body, and held Durbin's family members hostage during the ordeal.In the early morning hours of June 9, Wilson and others attempted to transport Durbin's battered body but their car broke down along California's Highway 91. There, Durbin was shot five times in the head and left in a roadside drainage ditch. His body was discovered later that day. Wilson was arrested, convicted of first-degree murder with special circumstances of torture and kidnapping, and sentenced to death. Barbara Phillips was also convicted and sentenced to life in prison without parole. The case remains one of Riverside County's most disturbing examples of torture-murder.https://linktr.ee/UnforbiddentruthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

In our first segment...In the case of United States v. Combs (24-cr-542), Sean Combs' legal team has formally requested that the court instruct the U.S. Marshals Service to remove his leg shackles before courtroom appearances. They argue that during the October 10, 2024, conference, Combs was unnecessarily shackled, a situation observed by both the press and the public. The defense contends that such restraints are unwarranted and could prejudice public perception.In our second segement...Recent reports suggest that Sean "Diddy" Combs, currently detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn on charges including sex trafficking and racketeering, is receiving notable attention from fellow inmates. Allegations indicate that certain inmates, referred to as "groupies," are vying for his favor, with some reportedly competing to perform tasks such as making his bed. These claims have been highlighted by journalist Toure, who cited an insider's account of Combs' experiences in custody.Additionally, a former inmate of the same facility has corroborated these assertions, describing a 20-man dormitory where inmates are allegedly "jealous" and "fighting" for Combs' attention. These reports provide insight into the dynamics within the detention center, suggesting that Combs' celebrity status may be influencing interactions among inmates.In our third segment..Recent reports indicate that private investigators have approached content creators discussing Sean "Diddy" Combs, aiming to determine if these influencers are being compensated for their coverage. Notably, YouTuber Amala Ekpunobi, with over two million subscribers, claimed that investigators visited her former residence to inquire about potential payments related to her commentary on Diddy. Similarly, TikTok personality "Secret Service Samson" reported a visit from private investigators questioning his Diddy-related content. These incidents suggest a concerted effort to scrutinize the motivations behind online discussions of Combs, particularly in light of his recent legal challenges.(commercial at 10:51)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.628425.73.0_1.pdfsource:Diddy Surrounded By “Groupies” Fighting To Make His Prison Bed, Former MDC Inmate Claims  - AllHipHopsource:Influencers Allegedly Targeted By Private Investigators Over Diddy Coverage

Steve Lynn Nicholson is a Michigan man convicted of two counts of homicide and child abuse following the deaths of his two young children in October 2010. At the time, Nicholson was living in Allen Park, Michigan, where he had sole custody of his son, Jonathan, and shared custody of his daughter, Ella. On the night of October 19, 2010, both children were found dead in his apartment—Jonathan in the bathtub and Ella on the bathroom floor. The prosecution argued that Nicholson intentionally drowned both children, citing evidence of prior abuse and suspicious circumstances at the crime scene.Medical experts testified that Jonathan's lungs contained water, indicating he was deliberately submerged, and that Ella had been placed face-down after drowning, showing signs of scalding burns. Nicholson's defense contended that the deaths were accidental. However, the trial court convicted him of first-degree murder for Ella's death, second-degree murder for Jonathan's, and first-degree child abuse. He was sentenced to life in prison without parole for the murder convictions, plus additional time for child abuse.In 2012, the Michigan Court of Appeals upheld Nicholson's convictions, affirming that the trial court had properly admitted evidence of prior abuse and that the verdicts were supported by the evidence presented. The case highlighted Nicholson's history of mistreating the children, including reports from neighbors and his partner about physical abuse and neglect. The court found that the deaths were not accidental, citing the deliberate staging of the scene and the children's inability to escape the water. Nicholson remains incarcerated at the G. Robert Cotton Correctional Facility in Jackson, Michigan, serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole.https://linktr.ee/UnforbiddentruthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

The Narco-Satánicos were a notorious criminal cult based in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico, that became infamous in the late 1980s for combining drug trafficking with ritualistic killings. The group was led by Adolfo de Jesús Constanzo, a Cuban-American who called himself a "palo mayombe" priest—a religion with African-Cuban roots that he distorted into violent, occult practices. Key Facts:1. LeadershipAdolfo Constanzo was the leader and spiritual figurehead.He gained followers among drug traffickers and law enforcement, who believed his rituals brought protection and power.Sara Aldrete, a college student, became his second-in-command and was dubbed the "High Priestess."2. Beliefs and PracticesThe group practiced a twisted version of Palo Mayombe, involving animal and human sacrifices.Constanzo believed blood rituals would protect their drug operations and make them invisible to police.Victims were sometimes tortured and mutilated as part of these rituals.3. Criminal ActivitiesThe cult was heavily involved in drug trafficking, especially smuggling marijuana across the U.S.–Mexico border.They operated on a ranch called "Rancho Santa Elena" near Matamoros, which became the site of gruesome discoveries.4. The Murder of Mark KilroyTheir activities came to light after the 1989 abduction and murder of Mark Kilroy, a University of Texas student on spring break.Kilroy was kidnapped, tortured, and killed as a human sacrifice.The high-profile case led U.S. and Mexican authorities to investigate the cult.5. Collapse and AftermathPolice raided Rancho Santa Elena and discovered numerous mutilated bodies buried on the property.Constanzo died in a shootout with police in Mexico City in May 1989—reportedly after ordering one of his followers to kill him rather than be captured.Several cult members, including Sara Aldrete, were captured and received lengthy prison sentences.Cultural ImpactThe case shocked both Mexico and the U.S., blending true crime with horror elements.It inspired books, documentaries, and films due to its disturbing mix of drug crime and ritualistic occultism.Note: I was very limited on what I was able to ask Sara, due to her being under contract for a documentary at the time.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.
