Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of John Edward Robinson, known as the internet's first serial killer. For nearly two decades, women across the Midwest answered his ads, responded to his messages, and accepted his promises of jobs, shelter, and a better life – and then vanished without a trace. What investigators eventually uncovered was a killer unlike any other: a charming, calculating con man who recognized the internet's potential as a hunting ground before law enforcement even knew to look there. Candice examines how a lifetime of fraud, fabrication, and an insatiable need for control evolved into something far darker, and how a devoted husband, father, and churchgoer managed to lead a secret second life as a predator for nearly twenty years.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In part two of this three-part series, retired FBI agent Scott comes face to face with a key second suspect in the Oklahoma City bombing. What follows is an hours-long interview that requires as much patience as it does skill. The suspect's story shifts and changes, and Scott has to navigate every contradiction carefully, pushing just enough without pushing too far. One wrong move and it all falls apart. Scott needs this to hold up in court.Retired FBI agent R. Scott Crabtree was born in Herington, KS and raised in Omaha, NE. After high school, he enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps before getting his college degree in accounting, aconomics, and business. During his nearly 25 years career with the Bureau, Scott was assigned to five different field offices, including New York City, their largest office, and the Salina, KS, Resident Agency, a one-person office, as well as two tours at FBIHQ in Washington D.C. Scott was the lead Kansas investigator of the Oklahoma City Bombing. He later led the Cyber Crime Squad in New York where he worked cases including the "I Love You" virus. After that, he led a rapid task force in Seattle that helped capture the D.C. snipers. After his retirement, Scott was recruited by a non-profit contractor firm where he was able to continue his work supporting and enabling operational, intelligence and information-sharing functions in numerous law enforcement and intelligence agencies. Scott's book about his work with the Oklahoma City bombing case, called Under 80 Hours, was published in 2025. 

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the shocking case of Pam Hupp, a Missouri woman whose web of lies, manipulation, and greed would unravel over the course of several years. What began as the tragic murder of Betsy Faria in 2011 appeared to be a seemingly open and shut case, leading investigators to focus on Betsy's husband. But as new evidence emerged, the investigation took a startling turn, revealing a trail of deception that extended far beyond a single crime. As authorities dug deeper, they uncovered suspicious deaths, fraudulent schemes, and a pattern of calculated behavior that pointed back to Hupp. Candice examines how Hupp's relentless pursuit of financial gain, talent for manipulation, and apparent lack of remorse allowed her to evade suspicion for years, and how a determined search for the truth ultimately exposed one of the most disturbing criminal cases in recent memory.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

The cartel extraction theory is the most shared theory in the Nancy Guthrie case — and the one with the least support from anyone with actual investigative experience. Former FBI agent Matt Cavanaugh told NBC News he sees no reason a cartel would target Nancy Guthrie. A retired Pima County lieutenant called cartel involvement far-fetched. Multiple local law enforcement sources told NewsNation the case shows no signs of cartel involvement. Retired FBI supervisory special agent Jason Pack explained that the FBI contacting Mexico was standard border protocol, not a lead. The pacemaker timeline the theory rests on was debunked by a doctor who explained Bluetooth disconnection only means the device was separated from a nearby phone — not that Nancy was transported anywhere. The private jet — a nineteen-year-old Cessna on a routine Puerto Vallarta route — was investigated and cleared. And the suspect's behavior on the doorbell camera was so unsophisticated the FBI said publicly that he did things a professional would not do. Tony Brueski walks through every data point that fueled the cartel theory and shows why not one of them survives contact with verified evidence. This is the first episode in a five-part series debunking the most extreme Nancy Guthrie theories using on-the-record sourcing.Links:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

An eighty-four-year-old woman with no known cryptocurrency was allegedly taken from her home in one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in Tucson. A six-million-dollar Bitcoin ransom was demanded. A two-billion-dollar cybersecurity firm called it a wrench attack by proxy — a classification that raises a question nobody else has asked publicly.What if the attackers had the wrong house? What if someone else in Catalina Foothills — someone with the kind of crypto holdings that draw a six-million-dollar demand — was the intended target? And what if Nancy Guthrie, who answered her door that night, was never supposed to be part of this at all?CertiK used the term proxy target selection. Volunteers in Mexico have turned up twenty-five unmarked graves in the border region. Retired FBI agents have identified the reservation as a plausible route south. DNA evidence is at the FBI lab. The sheriff is facing a recall. And if the wrong-house theory holds, the person the attackers were actually looking for may still be living in that neighborhood. Jennifer Coffindaffer, contributor to Hidden Killers, breaks it all down.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Oklahoma City Bombing was one of the most devastating attacks in American history, and its story has been told many times. But never like this.Retired FBI agent Scott was on the case in the chaotic hours after the 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. In part one of this three-part series, Scott takes us through the turbulent days immediately after the bombing, as he races to pin down a suspect.Retired FBI agent R.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Oscar Pistorius, the South African Olympic sprinter known worldwide as the ""Blade Runner."" On Valentine's Day 2013, Pistorius fired four shots through a locked bathroom door in his Pretoria home and killed his girlfriend, model and advocate Reeva Steenkamp. What investigators uncovered behind the world's most celebrated story of perseverance was a pattern of recklessness, rage, and control that had been hiding in plain sight for years. Candice examines how a childhood defined by loss, a family philosophy of denial, and a deeply conditioned relationship between fear and firearms converged to bring one of sport's greatest icons to one of its most shocking falls from grace.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Kouri Richins, the Utah real estate agent who poisoned her husband Eric with a lethal dose of fentanyl. In the spring of 2022, Eric Richins was found dead in his home in the mountains of Kamas, Utah -- and within months, his wife was giving interviews, appearing on morning television, and publishing a picture book about grief. But what investigators uncovered beneath that carefully constructed image was something far darker. Candice examines how a childhood marked by absent parents, financial chaos, and a lifelong need for external validation set the stage for a murder disguised as mourning.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Sid Vicious and the unsolved murder of Nancy Spungen. On the morning of October 12th, 1978, Nancy was found stabbed to death on the bathroom floor of Room 100 at New York City's legendary Chelsea Hotel — and the only suspect was the man she loved. Candice examines how two profoundly damaged people, bound together by trauma, addiction, and a relationship built on destruction, collided in a way that left one of punk rock's greatest mysteries permanently unsolved.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the chilling case of Joanna Dennehy, a brutal serial killer inspired by the film Kill Bill. Over just ten days in the spring of 2013, three men were stabbed to death in quiet English towns, and no one could believe what they were seeing -- because the killer was a woman who hunted for sport. Candice examines how Dennehy used charm, manipulation, and a rare appetite for violence to murder for pleasure across a single brutal week -- and how one survivor's ability to identify her tattoo finally brought her killing spree to an end.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

 Retired FBI counterintelligence behavioral analysis chief Robin Dreeke has spent decades studying how people allegedly manipulate, isolate, and control. The alleged patterns prosecutors describe in the D4VD case are the kind he's trained to decode — and the behavioral questions extend far beyond the defendant.According to prosecutors, Celeste Rivas Hernandez was fourteen when she was allegedly killed because she threatened to tell the truth about a relationship that reportedly began when she was thirteen. Dreeke examines the alleged grooming architecture: the financial manipulation, the alleged thousand-dollar payment to a classmate to reportedly get Celeste a new phone after her parents took hers, the alleged international travel where she reportedly met Burke's family and allegedly got matching tattoos, and the deliberate isolation that allegedly severed her from every protective adult in her life. He draws comparisons to behavioral patterns he's studied in other federal cases.The bystander dimension is equally significant. Three separate grand juries heard testimony from people in Burke's orbit. His manager was reportedly overheard telling an attorney that reporting to police was not his responsibility. Friends reportedly accepted a story that the fourteen-year-old was a college student — despite what prosecutors describe as obvious signs to the contrary. Someone in Burke's Discord server reportedly posted about the missing girl months after she disappeared. Nobody reportedly acted. Burke's parents and brother were subpoenaed. Court records indicate his mother reportedly managed his business finances.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines the mechanisms that allegedly allow networks of people to reportedly fail to intervene — the professional loyalty, the financial dependence, the willful blindness that reportedly enables alleged harm to continue in plain sight.The alleged disposal evidence prosecutors describe raises additional questions about whether someone else was allegedly involved and reportedly backed out. Burke has pleaded not guilty and maintains his innocence.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Retired FBI behavioral analysis chief Robin Dreeke has studied people who present one face to the world and allegedly operate from an entirely different place underneath. The behavioral picture emerging from inside Twin Towers Correctional Facility is the kind of contradiction his career was built to decode.Nick Reiner is reportedly described as almost childlike in custody — delusional, allegedly unable to process why he's incarcerated, reportedly screaming innocence at night. Simultaneously, he's reportedly planning a revenge tell-all designed to humiliate his surviving siblings and expose what he calls family secrets. Those two realities existing in the same person at the same time tells Dreeke something specific about what's allegedly driving the behavior — and whether the reported tell-all is strategy, symptom, or someone else's influence.The behavioral context is significant. Nick's schizoaffective disorder diagnosis is documented. A reported medication change occurred approximately a month before the alleged killings. Multiple sources describe a deterioration in the period leading up to the night Rob and Michele Reiner were allegedly killed in their own home. Jake and Romy have reportedly cut contact. The defense attorney quit.Jake Reiner broke his silence with a Substack essay about his parents — who they were, what they gave, what was stolen. He wrote about trading every milestone ahead for one more hour with them. That essay and Nick's reported tell-all exist in the same family, and the gap between them is the emotional center of this case.Dreeke examines the listener questions driving the conversation: can an insanity defense work under these circumstances, what does a medication change mean in the context of alleged violence, and the hardest question of all — what happens when a family does literally everything and still allegedly loses everything? The question of who's behind the reported tell-all remains open.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Buster Murdaugh spent the entire first trial projecting loyalty — sitting behind Alex every day, testifying that his father wasn't capable of killing Maggie and Paul. Then three years of near-total silence. Now that the South Carolina Supreme Court has reversed the convictions and a retrial looms, the behavioral picture has shifted completely. Sources say Buster is reportedly furious, allegedly calling Alex a "selfish old man." That's not the posture of someone preparing to defend his father again.Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke and Jennifer Coffindaffer break down what Buster's withdrawal pattern actually signals — what three years of distance, minimal prison contact, and a quiet marriage say about where his allegiance sits heading into a second trial. Coffindaffer raises the structural flaw in the State's family annihilation theory that nobody else is asking about: if Alex allegedly killed to protect secrets, why is Buster alive? Maggie wouldn't have believed a story about Paul's death if Buster were dead too. That contradiction doesn't just weaken the motive — it reshapes how a jury processes the entire case.Then there's the insurance scheme — Alex allegedly staging his own roadside shooting so Buster could collect ten million dollars. Was that a father's warped devotion or a con man using his own son as a tool? Both readings are available to a jury and both cut in different directions.Eric Faddis rounds out the analysis with the legal framework. The Supreme Court's reversal found procedural violations and excessive financial crimes testimony. Faddis maps the retrial terrain: what evidence survives, what gets cut, how Alex's locked-in testimony constrains the defense, and what Becky Hill's criminal conviction means for jury selection. The question both sides have to answer: which side would you rather be on walking into round two?Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the stunning guilty plea of Rex Heuermann, the Long Island architect known as the Gilgo Beach Serial Killer. For more than fifteen years, the murders of at least eight women dumped along a desolate stretch of Ocean Parkway went unsolved — one of the most haunting cold cases in American history.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Michael Gargiulo, known as the Hollywood Ripper. For more than a decade, women in the suburbs of Chicago and the Hollywood Hills were being murdered in their own homes, and no one saw it coming -- because the killer was never a stranger. He was the boy next door, the friendly repairman, the neighbor who waved from across the street. Candice examines how Gargiulo used proximity, access, and an unsettling gift for blending in to evade justice for fifteen years -- and how one survivor's refusal to give up changed everything.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks the Nancy Guthrie case open across three conversations that challenge the public's understanding from the ground up.She starts with the offender. The behavioral profile doesn't add up: enough preparation to conceal identity and target the surveillance system, but enough sloppiness to leave behind a forensic footprint investigators could follow. The calm, unhurried approach suggests someone familiar with the area or the victim — not a stranger operating on impulse. And the victimology undermines the kidnapping narrative entirely. An 84-year-old woman with medical needs and mobility limitations is the most impractical ransom target imaginable.Then the institutional failure. The FBI's public criticism of the case's handling signals a level of frustration that doesn't develop unless serious operational time and evidence have already been lost. Coffindaffer explains the cascading damage: degraded biological material, unreliable witness timelines, fractured tip management, and an investigative culture that shifts from pursuit to self-protection.Finally, the narrative itself. The ransom notes went to media — not the family. They're from opportunists, not the offender. But they built a motive framework the public adopted without question. Coffindaffer strips it away and examines what the remaining evidence actually supports: improvisation masked as planning, theater mistaken for discipline, and a suspect who may be hiding behind the noise of their own case's fame.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Every investigation builds a profile. And in the Nancy Guthrie case, the profile doesn't add up. The person who allegedly approached her Tucson home showed partial preparation — concealment, a weapon, interference with the surveillance camera. But the execution was riddled with exposure. The digital trail allegedly survived. The forensic footprint was enormous. And the ransom communications that followed — which we've long identified as opportunistic noise from unconnected parties — created a fog that obscured the real offender's behavior.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer examines what it means when a suspect's preparation doesn't match their competence. She digs into whether the calm, unhurried approach suggests prior familiarity with the neighborhood or the victim, what kind of reconnaissance might explain the timing, and why someone targeting an 84-year-old woman with medication needs and mobility limitations isn't thinking about ransom logistics. They're thinking about something else entirely.This is the kind of behavioral analysis that separates surface-level coverage from the questions that actually move a case forward. Coffindaffer doesn't offer easy answers — she forces harder questions.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Carl Panzram, one of the most brutal and unrepentant criminals in American history. In the early twentieth century, Panzram's trail of violence stretched across multiple continents, leaving behind at least 21 murder victims -- many of them still unidentified to this day. What investigators eventually uncovered was a killer unlike any other: a man who not only confessed to his crimes without remorse, but bragged about them. Candice examines how a childhood defined by abandonment, cruelty, and institutional abuse forged a worldview so dark and so absolute that by the time the world tried to intervene, it was far too late.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Brenda Ann Spencer, the teenager behind one of the earliest school shootings in modern American history. On the morning of January 29th, 1979, at just 16 years old, Brenda opened fire on children arriving at an elementary school across the street from her home, killing two and wounding nine others. When asked why she did it, her answer was chilling in its simplicity: she didn't like Mondays. But what investigators uncovered was not a story that began that morning – it was one that had been unfolding for years, in plain sight. Candice examines how a childhood marked by neglect, untreated mental illness, and a system that failed her at every turn culminated in an act of violence that would cast a long and devastating shadow over American history.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

David Anthony Burke — the recording artist known as D4VD — has been charged with first-degree murder with special circumstances, continuous sexual abuse of a child under fourteen, and mutilation of human remains in the death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez. He has pleaded not guilty. The special circumstances include allegations of lying in wait, financial motive, and killing a witness — making this a case where prosecutors could seek the most severe penalty available.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer brings her federal investigative experience to every layer of this case. Coffindaffer spent her career inside complex investigations, and she applies that lens to the full evidence trail: the tracking data that allegedly places Burke in a remote, deserted area of Santa Barbara County during the window investigators believe Celeste died; the reports that his circle allegedly believed she was a nineteen-year-old college student when she was a child; the electronics seizures from his rental property; the burn cage incinerator on the premises; and the evidence boxes detectives carried out of a separate address the night of the arrest.Coffindaffer also examines the procedural path this case took. LAPD initially moved on a Ramey warrant — a probable cause arrest warrant secured directly from a judge, bypassing the grand jury process. A secret grand jury investigation had been underway for months, its existence revealed only when Burke's family members challenged subpoenas in a Texas court. Charges were ultimately filed by the DA's office, and the defense has pushed for an expedited public preliminary hearing.And Coffindaffer addresses the rare public friction between the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's office and LAPD over the autopsy gag order — a clash that cuts against the usual grain of how these two agencies operate together. The people whose job it is to speak for the dead were told to stay silent, and they objected publicly.This is analysis from someone who has built cases like this from the inside — and who does not soften what the evidence trail is showing.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Sirhan Bishara Sirhan, the man who assassinated Senator Robert F. Kennedy. Shortly after midnight on June 5th, 1968, a gunshot in the kitchen of a Los Angeles hotel changed the course of American history. What investigators uncovered was a killer unlike any other: a deeply traumatized young man whose wounds of war and loss had quietly curdled into rage. Candice examines how a childhood defined by displacement and violence laid the psychological groundwork for radicalization, and how a single perceived betrayal transformed an admirer into an assassin.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Joseph Duggar faces two counts in Bay County, Florida — lewd and lascivious behavior involving molestation of a victim under twelve and lewd and lascivious conduct by a person eighteen or older — stemming from allegations tied to a 2020 family vacation in Panama City Beach. According to the arrest affidavit filed by the Bay County Sheriff's Office, a fourteen-year-old girl disclosed during a forensic interview that Duggar allegedly molested her on multiple occasions when she was nine years old. The affidavit states that the girl's father confronted Duggar, who reportedly admitted to the conduct. Tontitown detectives subsequently monitored a phone call in which Duggar allegedly admitted to the actions a second time. Duggar posted a $600,000 bond following a first appearance in Bay County Court and was ordered to have no unsupervised contact with any minor, including his own four children. An arraignment is pending. Both Joseph and Kendra Duggar also face misdemeanor charges in Arkansas — four counts each of second-degree endangering the welfare of a minor and second-degree false imprisonment — with a court date set in Elm Springs District Court.Monitored jail communications and written correspondence from inside the Duggar family reveal a pattern of response that diverges significantly from the family's coordinated public statements. Jim Bob Duggar's initial written message to his son reportedly centered on theological forgiveness rather than the alleged victim. Kendra Duggar's language on a monitored call included the word "disappointed." Anna Duggar — wife of Josh Duggar, who is serving a twelve-and-a-half-year federal sentence on child sexual abuse material charges — reportedly contributed financially to Joseph's commissary account. Retired FBI behavioral expert Robin Dreeke provides analysis on the behavioral signatures present in these communications.The institutional backdrop to the Duggar family's formation is also under examination. Bill Gothard founded the Institute in Basic Life Principles in 1961. Thirty-four women have accused Gothard of misconduct and inappropriate behavior, with some alleging the conduct occurred when they were minors. Gothard has denied all allegations. An internal IBLP investigation in 2014 found he had acted "inappropriately," and he resigned. He has never been criminally charged. In June 2025, the Texas Supreme Court denied IBLP's petition to dismiss a lawsuit alleging the organization's teachings were designed to facilitate conditions enabling abuse, allowing the case to proceed.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Investigators followed Rex Heuermann for months through Manhattan before a discarded pizza crust gave them everything. That abandoned sample — recovered legally from public garbage — produced a DNA match to a male hair found wrapped in burlap around Megan Waterman's remains on Ocean Parkway. One connection. That match generated the warrants for Heuermann's home, his devices, and the digital trove prosecutors say reveals the most meticulously documented serial killing case investigators have encountered.Megan was 22, a mother from Scarborough, Maine, who called her three-year-old daughter every day without exception. When those calls stopped in June 2010, her family filed a missing persons report within two days. Surveillance footage from a Holiday Inn Express in Hauppauge shows her walking out the door at 1:15 a.m. She was found six months later alongside the rest of the Gilgo Four.Heuermann stood in a Suffolk County courtroom and pleaded guilty to seven murders — Melissa Barthelemy, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Amber Lynn Costello, Sandra Costilla, Valerie Mack, Jessica Taylor, and Megan Waterman — spanning seventeen years from 1993 to 2010. He admitted to intentionally causing the death of an eighth victim, Karen Vergata, whose case was folded into the plea agreement. Prosecutors allege every killing occurred when Heuermann's wife and children were out of state, and that his devices contained checklists, methodology notes, and instructions for destroying evidence.His defense attorney framed the plea as "relief." The FBI cooperation agreement — requiring Heuermann to sit for behavioral analysis interviews — is built directly into the deal. Retired FBI behavioral expert Robin Dreeke and defense attorney Eric Faddis break down what the documented methodology reveals, what the defense traded in the plea, and why the courtroom moment matters far less than what investigators found on those devices.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

30 years after ""The Unabomber's"" arrest, Ted Kaczynski's ideas are more alive than ever, cited by killers like Luigi Mangione, debated by philosophers and celebrated by people who see him as a prophet rather than a murderer. Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong, who sat alone with him hours after his capture, will share all-new anecdotes about Kaczynski's case, his capture, her own (not entirely accurate) portrayal in Michael Mann's film ""The Insider,"" and how we can still gain valuable insights from his case three decades later. This episode also details Ted's death, his strange afterlife in the culture, and a reckoning with the uncomfortable questions his legacy forces us to ask. Candice serves as our guide through both the past and the present — and reflects on the person she believes is the true hero of the story: David Kaczynski, the brother whose agonizing decision to turn Ted in may have saved countless lives.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Luka Magnotta, known as the Butcher of Montreal. In the spring of 2012, a shocking video showing the murder of a university student named Jun Lin began circulating across the internet, setting off a chain of events that would horrify an entire nation. What investigators uncovered was a killer unlike any other: a deeply troubled, fame-obsessed man whose lifelong hunger for notoriety would ultimately become both his motive and his undoing. Candice examines how a turbulent childhood, a history of severe mental illness, and an obsessive need to be seen at any cost culminated in one of the most disturbing crimes in Canadian history.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Three cases. Three distinct legal landscapes. And one conversation that gets to the procedural questions that matter most.Rex Heuermann is reportedly expected to plead guilty on April 8 in the Gilgo Beach killings — a plea that has not yet been entered and could still fall apart. If it holds, it would resolve charges connected to seven victims while closing the courtroom before a trial — no testimony under oath, no cross-examination, no public evidentiary record of the kind full proceedings create. Four families tied to uncharged deaths would not be reached by that expected plea.The Nancy Guthrie abduction is being investigated by a department with a documented institutional crisis. Dr. Richard Carmona — a former U.S. Surgeon General and former Pima County sheriff — went on record stating the crime scene was corrupted, calling it an irreversible error. The deputies' union passed a unanimous no-confidence vote. The Board of Supervisors invoked a rare law requiring the sheriff to submit reports under oath. More than 18,000 tips have been received with no named suspect. Ransom notes demanding cryptocurrency payment arrived and went past their deadlines. The legal integrity of any eventual case will have to be established within this context.Joseph Duggar faces felony charges in Florida — accused of molesting a then-9-year-old girl during a 2020 family vacation, incidents he allegedly admitted to when confronted by the victim's father and again to law enforcement detectives. He and Kendra face separate Arkansas misdemeanor counts for child endangerment and false imprisonment. Jim Bob Duggar's documented decision to handle Josh's conduct without law enforcement contact raises accountability questions that the existing charges do not address.Today on True Crime Today, retired FBI Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program Chief Robin Dreeke joins me to go through listener questions on all three cases — examining the legal record, the procedural stakes, and what the documented evidence means for the people still waiting on answers.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Kelsey Fitzsimmons bench trial has concluded its evidentiary phase. Both sides have rested. Closing arguments are pending, with a verdict potentially to follow the same day. A single judge will determine whether the single count — assault with a dangerous weapon — is supported beyond a reasonable doubt.The central factual dispute: the prosecution contends that Fitzsimmons, a former North Andover police officer, raised her service weapon and directed it at Officer Patrick Noonan's face, pulled the trigger on an unchambered round, and racked the slide before Noonan discharged his weapon. The defense contends the weapon was raised to Fitzsimmons's own temple throughout — that this was a mental health crisis and suicide attempt, not an assault — and that Fitzsimmons was shot while in crisis, not while threatening another officer.Fitzsimmons testified in her own defense on day three, providing her account of the sequence directly. Her testimony included statements made in the ambulance following the shooting. A neighbor of Noonan's also testified on day three. Fitzsimmons's mother testified that she was present in the home, heard two shots, and did not hear her daughter speak. A defense-requested site visit, litigated over two days, was cancelled without explanation following Fitzsimmons's testimony.Of legal significance: the grand jury declined to indict on armed assault with intent to murder prior to trial — the top charge the prosecution originally pursued. The case proceeded on the lesser assault count. Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta examines what that pre-trial grand jury outcome signals about the evidentiary posture, the strategic calculus behind the bench trial election, and the legal architecture of a mental health defense that incorporates postpartum depression, prior on-duty trauma, and post-incident clinical findings without becoming a prosecution narrative. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke addresses the evidentiary weight of behavioral testimony and what officer statements on scene — including the words spoken immediately before the shot was fired — communicate about real-time perception under stress. Martha Coakley, former Massachusetts Attorney General, leads the defense.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On True Crime Today, we're examining the legal and procedural dimensions of the criminal charges now facing Joseph Duggar and Kendra Duggar — and what the documented history of this household establishes as evidentiary context for prosecutors approaching this case.Joseph Duggar faces criminal charges. Kendra Duggar faces separate charges. Josh Duggar is currently serving a federal sentence following conviction on child sexual abuse material offenses, with his appeal exhausted. These are the documented legal facts. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke examines what an established pattern of internal management of alleged offenses within a family creates for prosecutors — how prior conduct, prior decisions by household adults, and the documented response to Josh Duggar's case may shape the evidentiary theory in the current matter.The alleged victim in this case reportedly experienced the alleged offense at age nine and did not disclose for five years. Under established forensic interview protocol and research on childhood sexual abuse disclosure, delayed reporting is well-documented and carries specific legal significance — both in how it affects the investigative timeline and how prosecutors and defense attorneys address it with juries.Kendra Duggar's documented age at the time of her marriage into this household, her religious upbringing, and the theological framework in which she was raised are legally relevant context when evaluating what prosecutors may allege she knew, when she knew it, and what her legal obligations were.Jim Bob Duggar's documented prior handling of Josh Duggar's alleged conduct — including decisions made prior to law enforcement contact — may form part of the evidentiary backdrop shaping how prosecutors construct the current case.Robin Dreeke walks through each of these legal dimensions and what they mean for how this case is likely to proceed.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Hidden Killers team examines the documented investigative developments in the Nancy Guthrie disappearance at the seven-week mark — including the reported FBI canvassing activity targeting individuals who left the area prior to her disappearance, the exposed conduct of the case's sheriff, and the unaddressed date the family has continued to publicly emphasize.According to reporting, FBI agents have been canvassing Nancy Guthrie's former neighborhood with specific questions about individuals who moved out of the area in the period before her disappearance. At day 49 of the investigation, canvassing of this nature is not routine broad-based outreach. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke examines what a targeted inquiry of this type — focused specifically on people who departed the area prior to the disappearance — indicates about the working investigative theory and the timeline investigators are prioritizing.The Guthrie family has independently issued a public statement asking Tucson community members to search their memories and come forward with relevant information — a step that goes beyond standard family advocacy and represents a direct community outreach effort operating parallel to the official investigation. Robin addresses what this kind of parallel effort typically indicates about a family's assessment of investigative progress, and what the risks and potential benefits of that approach are at this stage.The sheriff with operational involvement in this case was recently reported to have provided false testimony under oath regarding his own prior record. Robin examines the documented behavioral indicators associated with deception by authority figures, and the investigative implications when the public credibility of senior law enforcement leadership is compromised mid-investigation.The Guthrie family has repeatedly and specifically referenced January 11th — approximately three weeks prior to Nancy's disappearance — as a date of significance. Law enforcement has not publicly addressed that date or its relevance. That gap is itself a data point, and Robin addresses what it likely means.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Hidden Killers team examines the institutional framework behind the Duggar family — the Institute in Basic Life Principles — and what the documented teachings of that organization reveal about the conditions that enabled the pattern of alleged conduct now producing multiple criminal cases within a single family across multiple generations.The IBLP's Umbrella of Authority doctrine establishes a hierarchical authority structure in which male patriarchs hold absolute control, wives submit to that authority, and children submit to both. Questioning this hierarchy is framed within the doctrine as spiritual disobedience. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke examines how that authority framework functions in documented practice when harm occurs inside the household — specifically what it does to the capacity for reporting, disclosure, or external intervention.IBLP curricula do not include sex education, age-appropriate boundary instruction, or abuse recognition frameworks. Former members have documented this as deliberate design rather than oversight. Robin addresses the established psychological research on what children raised without abuse recognition language are able to do when they experience harm — and what the absence of that vocabulary means for investigators when disclosures occur years later.Bill Gothard founded IBLP and led it for approximately six decades. More than 34 women have publicly accused him of harassment and sexual abuse. He is currently 91 years old and has never faced criminal charges. The organization he founded continues to operate. Robin examines how high-control religious institutions create structural immunity for leadership figures — and how that immunity cascades downward through the families inside the system.Former Duggar family members have publicly described leaving the IBLP framework in terms that parallel what researchers describe as cult exit and recovery — not religious transition. Robin addresses what that clinical and institutional distinction means for how we categorize and scrutinize organizations of this type.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Seven weeks into the Nancy Guthrie disappearance, the investigation has reached a critical pivot point — and the Hidden Killers team is examining the developments shaking the case from inside and out. The FBI is reportedly conducting a targeted canvass aimed at individuals who left the area before Nancy vanished, while questions of sheriff misconduct and the still-unaddressed January 11th timeline gap raise escalating concerns about how this case is being handled.According to local reporting, FBI agents have been quietly revisiting Guthrie's former neighborhood, asking pointed questions about those who moved away in the weeks leading up to her disappearance. At day 49, this kind of specific, backward-looking inquiry is no routine sweep — it suggests an active theory and a narrowed focus. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke dissects what this shift signals about investigators' timeline and priorities — and what it may reveal about who they now believe holds the key to Nancy's disappearance.Meanwhile, the Guthrie family has taken matters further, directly urging the Tucson community to search their memories and share any relevant details. Robin breaks down what such parallel public outreach suggests about their confidence in official progress — and the delicate balance between aiding an investigation and pressuring one.Complicating the case further, the sheriff overseeing key elements of the investigation has now been accused of false testimony under oath about his past record. Robin examines the behavioral red flags tied to deception by authority figures — and how compromised leadership at this stage can ripple through an entire investigation.The family continues to emphasize January 11th — roughly three weeks before Nancy vanished — as a date of significance. Law enforcement has yet to publicize its relevance or connection. That silence isn't neutral — it's data. Robin explains what investigators' unwillingness to address that date may really indicate, and why it could be central to understanding what happened to Nancy Guthrie.Each unanswered question now feels heavier. Every delay matters. The clock on this case isn't just ticking — it's running out on clarity.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the shocking murders of legendary Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michelle Singer Reiner. Candice walks through what investigators say happened during the final hours before the couple were found stabbed to death inside their Brentwood home, and why their own son, Nick Reiner, quickly became the prime suspect in the case. She breaks down the timeline of the killings, Nick's movements after the crime, and the troubling history of addiction and severe mental health struggles that may play a central role in the investigation. Then, Candice is joined by former Los Angeles prosecutor and legal analyst Josh Ritter, who explains the legal process now unfolding, from Nick Reiner's arraignment to the possibility of an insanity defense and whether prosecutors may seek the death penalty. Together they explore how courts evaluate competency, the difference between mental illness and legal insanity, and what evidence could ultimately determine whether this case ends in prison, a psychiatric institution, or a lengthy jury trial.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the disturbing case of Mary Ann Cotton, the Victorian-era poisoner who used arsenic to systematically eliminate husbands, stepchildren, and even her own children across nearly two decades in Northeast England. Behind the facade of a grieving widow was a calculating killer who collected insurance payouts and cleared the path to her next financial and romantic opportunity with each death. Candice digs into what drove Mary Ann to view her own families as disposable and how her modus operandi and the time period allowed her to stay under the radar for so long -- killing at least 21 people in the process.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A case built entirely on circumstantial evidence — and a retired FBI Special Agent who knows exactly where it holds and where it doesn't.Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the Kouri Richins murder trial from a trained investigative standpoint — starting with the fundamental problem the prosecution now owns: when two immunity witnesses directly contradict each other about whether the drug sold was fentanyl or oxycodone, what does that do to the chain of custody for the substance at the foundation of this entire case? She explains what FBI investigators do when key witnesses undermine each other, and what prosecutors can realistically do to repair a chain that's already been fractured from inside the courtroom.She analyzes the digital forensics — phone searches for poison, death certificates, and deleting iPhone messages — and breaks down what evidentiary weight search history actually carries in an FBI homicide investigation. She walks through the cell tower data, the missed insurance beneficiary change, the GPS text sent on Valentine's Day, and how those pieces function together when no single element is definitive on its own.And she gives an honest read on the overall prosecution case: what lands hardest with juries, what the defense will exploit, and where she sees the single most vulnerable link in nine days of evidence.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the disturbing case of Westley Allan Dodd, a serial child killer who terrorized the Pacific Northwest in the late 1980s.

As Dodd's compulsions intensified and his need for control deepened, he carried out crimes that shocked communities and exposed the limits of rehabilitation.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the disturbing case of Donna Adelson, a domineering and deeply enmeshed mother whose obsessive need for control allegedly culminated in the murder-for-hire of her former son-in-law, Florida State University law professor Dan Markel. What began as a bitter custody dispute following Markel's divorce from Adelson's daughter, Wendi, escalated into a years-long campaign of manipulation, psychological warfare, and resentment fueled by Donna's refusal to accept court-imposed boundaries. Candice explores how enmeshment, entitlement, and an intolerance for loss of control can distort family dynamics; and how a grandmother's fixation on access and dominance ultimately led prosecutors to accuse her of orchestrating a deadly conspiracy that shattered an entire family.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!
