The Paul Caneiro quadruple murder trial is underway in Monmouth County, New Jersey. Prosecutors allege Caneiro shot his brother Keith, stabbed his sister-in-law Jennifer, and brutally killed his 11-year-old nephew Jesse and 8-year-old niece Sophia inside their Colts Neck mansion on November 20, 2018 — then set the house on fire to cover his tracks. According to autopsy findings cited in a civil lawsuit, Sophia survived for nine hours after being stabbed 17 times, ultimately dying from smoke inhalation.The State's case includes bloody jeans and gloves with the children's DNA found in Paul's basement, ballistics linking a gun in his home to the murder weapon, and security footage showing him disconnecting his cameras at 1:28 AM. Hours later, Paul's own Ocean Township home caught fire — allegedly another arson he committed to make it look like his family was being targeted.The defense says police had tunnel vision. They're pointing at Corey Caneiro, the third brother, who was never investigated and whose DNA was never collected — despite standing to inherit $1.5 million from the same life insurance policy. A civil lawsuit alleges Corey took control of the insurance proceeds and bought a $1.8 million home within a year of the murders.Paul Caneiro has maintained his innocence for seven years. He faces life without parole if convicted.

True Crime Today brings you an exclusive behavioral analysis of Brendan Banfield from retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke. Dreeke led the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program and has spent over three decades reading people. His question for this case: does the prosecution's theory actually make behavioral sense?Brendan Banfield was an IRS criminal investigator — a federal agent who built cases for a living. Prosecutors say he used that expertise to plan an elaborate double murder: creating fake FetLife profiles, luring a stranger to his home, coordinating with his au pair mistress, staging the crime scene as self-defense. But if that's true, why did Banfield leave a framed photo of himself and Juliana on his nightstand for police to find? Why did he call 911 and give a detailed statement?Dreeke breaks down what deception looks like in real time — and whether Banfield's post-offense behavior fits the profile of a calculated killer. He examines the gun purchase prosecutors call premeditation. He analyzes the McDonald's detail where Banfield allegedly waited nearby. He explains what the 911 call should reveal about whether Banfield was telling the truth.The affair is central to the motive theory. But affairs happen constantly without murder. Dreeke identifies the escalation factors that would need to be present for someone to go from infidelity to allegedly orchestrating a double homicide — and whether they appear in this case.This is behavioral analysis you won't hear in the courtroom. Dreeke gives his expert read on what Brendan Banfield's actions actually tell us.#BrendanBanfield #RobinDreeke #TrueCrimeToday #FBI #BehavioralAnalysis #ChristineBanfield #AuPairMurder #MurderTrial #Psychology #DeceptionJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Paul Caneiro is on trial for the 2018 quadruple murder of his brother Keith, sister-in-law Jennifer, and their two children — 11-year-old Jesse and 8-year-old Sophia — inside their million-dollar Colts Neck, New Jersey mansion. Prosecutors say greed drove Caneiro to slaughter his own family after Keith discovered he'd been stealing tens of thousands of dollars from their shared businesses. The most devastating detail: according to autopsy findings cited in a civil lawsuit, Sophia was stabbed 17 times across her 45-pound body and survived for approximately nine hours, dying of smoke inhalation after her uncle allegedly set the house on fire.The prosecution's evidence includes bloody clothing found in Paul's basement with DNA matching the children, a 9mm handgun, matching ammunition, and security footage showing Paul disconnecting his home cameras at 1:28 AM the night of the murders. Hours later, Paul's own house caught fire — prosecutors say he set it to create the "illusion" his entire family was being targeted.But the defense is pointing at someone else: Corey Caneiro, the third brother, who police never investigated and whose DNA was never collected. Corey stood to inherit $1.5 million from the same life insurance policy. A civil lawsuit alleges he took control of the insurance proceeds after the murders and bought a $1.8 million home less than a year later. He denies these allegations.Seven years after the murders, the trial is finally underway. Paul Caneiro faces life without parole if convicted.#PaulCaneiro #ColtsNeck #MansionMurders #TrueCrime #NewJersey #CanerioTrial #QuadrupleMurder #CourtTV #HiddenKillers #JusticeForSophiaJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

If Brendan Banfield planned an elaborate double murder, why did he leave a framed photo of himself and his mistress on the nightstand for police to find eight months later? Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Hidden Killers to answer the question nobody else is asking: does Banfield's behavior actually match the prosecution's theory?Dreeke led the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. He's spent his career reading people, detecting deception, and understanding why criminals do what they do. He brings that expertise to a case built almost entirely on the word of a woman who flipped after a year in jail.Brendan Banfield was an IRS criminal investigator. He knew how cases are built. He understood evidence. Prosecutors say he used that knowledge to orchestrate murder and stage it as self-defense. But Dreeke examines the behavioral red flags that should appear if that's true — and whether they actually show up in this case.The prosecution claims Banfield spent months planning: creating fake FetLife profiles, luring Joseph Ryan to the house, coordinating with Juliana, buying a gun, taking her to the range. Then he called 911 and gave a detailed statement. Dreeke explains what investigators should have seen in that call if Banfield was lying — and what it means if they didn't see it.He also tackles the McDonald's detail prosecutors love: Banfield allegedly waited nearby so he could return quickly when Ryan arrived. Calculated staging? Or innocent behavior being reframed after the fact?This is the behavioral breakdown of Brendan Banfield you won't get anywhere else.#BrendanBanfield #RobinDreeke #HiddenKillers #FBI #BehavioralAnalysis #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #AuPairMurder #Deception #CriminalPsychologyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Major developments in the Kouri Richins case as Judge Richard Mrazik issues critical pre-trial rulings just weeks before jury selection begins. Kouri Richins, the Utah mother and real estate agent charged with aggravated murder in the 2022 fentanyl death of her husband Eric Richins, will now face a narrower trial than prosecutors intended. The judge ruled this week that financial crime charges — including insurance fraud, mortgage fraud, and forgery — will be tried separately, meaning the jury deciding the murder case won't hear those allegations. A domestic violence expert has been barred from testifying after defense attorneys argued there's no evidence of abuse in twelve terabytes of discovery. Former FBI behavioral analyst Molly Amman can only testify in limited rebuttal capacity and cannot suggest Kouri fits a killer profile. However, handwriting expert Matt Throckmorton will testify that Eric's signature on insurance documents was allegedly forged. The controversial orange notebook — allegedly containing Kouri's own account of the night Eric died — may be admitted if prosecutors meet evidentiary requirements. Prosecutors allege Kouri first tried to poison Eric with a fentanyl-laced sandwich on Valentine's Day 2022, then succeeded seventeen days later with a Moscow Mule. The defense has challenged the state's evidence, noting a key witness recanted his statement about selling fentanyl. Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty and maintains her innocence. Trial begins February 10, 2026.#KouriRichins #TrueCrimeToday #EricRichins #UtahCrime #FentanylPoisoning #MurderTrial #TrueCrimePodcast #CriminalJustice #CourtNews #TrueCrimeNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Clara Harris seemed to have everything. A successful dental career, a wealthy lifestyle, and a marriage that looked perfect from the outside. That image shattered when she discovered her husband, orthodontist David Harris, was having an affair with their receptionist, Gail Bridges.Instead of confronting him directly, Clara hired a private investigator to follow David to what she believed would be a final breakup meeting. But when she arrived at the Nassau Bay Hilton, she found David and Gail together at the same hotel where she and David once celebrated their wedding.What happened next was caught on video and witnessed by bystanders. In a burst of rage, Clara drove her Mercedes into David in the parking lot, then circled back and struck him again. Witnesses heard their daughter screaming for her to stop.At trial, Clara claimed the death was an accident. Prosecutors argued it was intentional. Under Texas law, the jury found she acted in sudden passion, reducing the charge and limiting her sentence to twenty years instead of life. Clara served fifteen years before being released from parole in 2023.The case sparked national debate about jealousy, betrayal, and whether emotional rage should ever reduce accountability for murder.

When Minneapolis Turned Into Open Rebellion An ICE agent lies hospitalized after a brutal three-on-one ambush in Minneapolis—attacked with a snow shovel and broom handle during an arrest. What followed wasn't peace, but organized riots, fireworks hurled at police, federal weapons stolen, and local authorities standing down.

​The U.S. government's motions in limine in the case against Sean "Diddy" Combs seek to shape the evidentiary landscape for the upcoming trial. Prosecutors aim to introduce corroborative materials such as text messages, diary entries from a former employee, and a 911 call to support the testimonies of alleged victims. They argue that these pieces of evidence are crucial to demonstrate patterns of behavior and to counter anticipated challenges to the credibility of witnesses. Additionally, the government requests the exclusion of certain defense evidence, including prior consensual sexual encounters Combs had with individuals not involved in the case, asserting that such information is irrelevant and could mislead the jury.Furthermore, the prosecution seeks to admit expert testimony from psychologist Dr. Dawn Hughes, who would explain how victims of abuse might remain in relationships with their abusers due to emotional manipulation or fear. This testimony is intended to provide context for the victims' continued association with Combs, which the defense might use to question their credibility. The motions also address the admissibility of a 2016 surveillance video allegedly showing Combs assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura.

Idaho prosecutors have responded to Lori Vallow Daybell's appeal with a 59-page filing that systematically rejects every constitutional claim she raised. The convicted child killer argued her Sixth Amendment rights were violated when the court removed her attorney Mark Means. Prosecutors revealed Means simultaneously represented both Lori and her co-defendant husband Chad Daybell — with Chad paying the legal fees and sharing privileged information. That's a textbook conflict of interest, and the court was right to intervene. Her speedy trial claim falls apart under scrutiny: 353 days of delay came from her own competency evaluations, and she requested the venue change that added months to the timeline. The state's brief is blunt — she caused most of the delay, then complained about it. The Arizona evidence she wanted excluded proved the "dark spirit" murder pattern that connected Charles Vallow's death to the killings in Idaho. Same MO, same actors, same financial motive. Forensic testimony established JJ Vallow died of asphyxiation with a plastic bag over his head and duct tape binding his body. Tylee Ryan's remains were burned beyond recognition. Their mother collected Social Security benefits for months after they were dead. Chad Daybell sits on death row. Lori Vallow is serving three consecutive life sentences. This appeal won't change that.#LoriVallowDaybell #ChadDaybell #BreakingNews #TrueCrime #IdahoMurders #Appeal #CultMom #JJVallow #TyleeRyan #CourtNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

John-Paul Miller appeared in federal court and pleaded not guilty to charges that he cyberstalked his estranged wife Mica Miller and lied to FBI investigators. The former Solid Rock Church pastor now wears an ankle monitor and faces up to seven years in prison if convicted.More than 70 people packed the Florence, South Carolina courtroom. Prosecutors argued Miller is a flight risk and a danger to the community. The judge set bond at $100,000 with strict conditions: ankle monitor, no contact with victims or witnesses, surrender his passport, no firearms, no excessive alcohol. When the hearing ended, Miller slipped out a back door while his attorneys addressed the crowd.The federal indictment details a pattern of alleged harassment spanning November 2022 through April 27, 2024 — the day Mica died. Prosecutors say Miller placed tracking devices on her vehicle, contacted her more than 50 times in a single day, interfered with her finances, posted a nude photograph of her online, and damaged her tires. When the FBI asked him about the tire damage, he denied it — but investigators had receipts showing he'd purchased a tire deflation device online.Mica Miller was 30 years old when she died at Lumber River State Park in North Carolina. She had served JP divorce papers just two days earlier. Authorities ruled her death a suicide, but the circumstances have fueled national outrage and an ongoing federal investigation.This case also connects to another death. Chris Skinner, a quadriplegic Army veteran, drowned in a Myrtle Beach pool on Labor Day 2021. His widow Suzie is now married to JP Miller. According to a sworn affidavit, Chris confronted JP about an alleged affair with his wife just two weeks before he drowned.We break down what happened in court, what these charges mean, and what's next.#JPMiller #MicaMiller #JusticeForMica #ChrisSkinner #TrueCrimeToday #FederalCharges #Cyberstalking #MyrtleBeach #SolidRockChurch #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Brazilian au pair at the center of the Brendan Banfield murder case took the stand on Day 1 of testimony, telling jurors she watched Banfield shoot Joseph Ryan and stab his wife Christine to death in their Fairfax County home.Juliana Peres Magalhães, who pleaded guilty to manslaughter in exchange for her testimony, described how she and Banfield allegedly created a fake profile on a fetish website to lure Ryan to the home. Prosecutors say Ryan believed he was meeting Christine for a consensual encounter — instead, he was allegedly framed as an intruder and killed.The defense argues digital forensics contradict the catfishing theory and that investigators who raised concerns were removed from the case.
