What does a retired FBI agent with decades of organized-crime experience think happened to Nancy Guthrie?In this episode of True Crime with Jen Coffindaffer FBI, Jen is joined by retired FBI Special Agent Frank Storey, a 30-year veteran who helped lead major investigations targeting the Mafia and organized crime.Frank gives his professional assessment of the Nancy Guthrie case and says he believes Nancy was kidnapped for ransom. He also shares his theory about what may have happened after she was taken and why he believes the ransom letters that followed were likely not written by the kidnappers.Most importantly, Frank believes the case will eventually be solved, explaining why someone involved could eventually talk—possibly after being arrested for another serious crime.A fascinating conversation with an FBI veteran who spent his career investigating organized crime and knows what it takes to break complex cases.#BreakTheCase #NancyGuthrie #FrankStorey #FBI #RetiredFBI #TrueCrime #Kidnapping #Ransom #OrganizedCrime #Mafia #CrimeAnalysis #TrueCrimeCommunity #JusticeForNancy #CoffindafferFBI

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong revisits the case of Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker, through the eyes of the man who cracked it. While Los Angeles dominated the headlines, it was a San Francisco homicide inspector named Frank Falzon who first put a name to one of history's most feared serial killers. Candice sits down with Falzon to trace the unlikely chain of evidence -- a stolen bracelet, a borrowed car, a reluctant informant -- that led investigators straight to Richard Ramirez, and to hear firsthand what it was like to come face to face with the Night Stalker himself.Frank Falzon's memoir, San Francisco Homicide Inspector 5-Henry-7, is available at: https://www.amazon.com/San-Francisco-Homicide-Inspector-5-Henry-7/dp/B0B72QWXLKAudible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the terrifying case of Richard Ramirez, the serial killer and sexual predator who turned the summer of 1985 into a season of fear across Southern California. Striking seemingly at random, Ramirez slipped into homes after dark, attacking men, women, and children with a brutality that left investigators struggling to find a pattern -- or predict where he would strike next. As the body count grew, so did the panic, until a crucial forensic clue and an extraordinary public manhunt finally brought the Night Stalker's reign of terror to an end. Candice examines the psychology behind Ramirez's escalating violence, the chaotic investigation that raced to stop him, and how one killer transformed the most intimate place imaginable -- the home -- into a source of fear for millions.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Patrick Clancy has never been charged with anything in his children's deaths. That hasn't stopped the internet from trying him anyway — twice, from two different directions. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott join Tony Brueski to break down the online case against a man neither prosecutors nor Lindsay's own defense team has ever pointed at. On TikTok, testimony about a blood stain on a windowsill turned into a fully staged theory by the same night: Patrick pushing Lindsay out the window. New photos of his second wife got lined up next to old photos of Lindsay — same hair, same build — and a wedding three years after the deaths became proof of a plan. On a separate front, the case has split almost entirely by gender. Men on X want Lindsay punished as severely as possible and ignore the psychosis defense outright. Women online have gone the other way, branding Patrick a narcissist and repeatedly invoking Chris Watts by name. Patrick told the jury directly he wasn't married to a monster. Dreeke and Scott walk through how a medical symptom Lindsay described got reread online as evidence against her husband, why his remarriage reads as guilt to two completely different audiences, and what it does to a grieving father to be convicted by an internet that was never in the courtroom and never heard the evidence. Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nobody in the Lindsay Clancy courtroom has accused Patrick Clancy of anything. Online, it's a different story entirely. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott join Tony Brueski to unpack how a man who testified about burying his own three children became a target for two opposite theories running at the same time. On TikTok, a blood-stain expert's testimony about the windowsill turned into a fully built scenario overnight: Patrick shoving Lindsay through the glass. Photos of his new wife got placed next to old photos of Lindsay, hair and build matched up, and a wedding three years after his children's deaths became evidence of a plan. On a separate front, the case has split almost cleanly by gender. Men on X want maximum punishment for Lindsay and no engagement with the psychosis defense or the thirteen medications from five prescribers. Women online have taken the opposite position, casting Patrick as a narcissist and invoking Chris Watts by name. Patrick told the jury directly that he wasn't married to a monster. Lindsay's own attorney has told the jury she killed her children. Dreeke and Scott trace how a medical symptom got recast as a motive, why remarriage reads as guilt to both camps for opposite reasons, and what it costs a father to be tried by an audience that was never in the courtroom. 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 Herb Baumeister, the Indianapolis thrift store owner whose sprawling Fox Hollow Farm concealed the remains of at least eleven men. For years, gay men were vanishing from the same cluster of downtown bars, drawn away by a well-dressed stranger who called himself Brian Smart and promised a night at his place in the country. But behind the locked gates of an eighteen-acre estate, that same man -- a husband, father, and successful businessman -- was living a secret life that his family never suspected and that investigators couldn't crack until the farm itself gave them the answer. Candice examines how a lifetime of concealment built the psychological architecture for one of Indiana's darkest crimes, and why, three decades later, the woods are still giving up the dead.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Plymouth County District Attorney charged one person in the deaths of the three Clancy children. State Police investigated and landed on that same name. It wasn't Patrick Clancy. So why does a growing slice of the internet keep insisting otherwise? Tony Brueski runs the theory down. The claims circulating on Instagram and TikTok form a full list: Patrick drugged his wife for months, he held the restraints, he staged the bedroom window, the locked door was his doing, and his 2026 remarriage is proof he had a motive all along. Tony checks each one against actual courtroom testimony — NMS Laboratories toxicologist Justin Brower's findings on four medications in Lindsay Clancy's blood, the direction an interior bedroom lock actually turns, and a fingerprint claim that turns out to misread what a state trooper said on the stand. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke joins to explain why online crowds gravitate toward the husband as a suspect almost by reflex, no matter what the paper trail shows, and what it would genuinely take to change that. His answer isn't the easy one. Patrick's alibi is backed by CVS surveillance and phone records down to the minute. The remarriage detail came out in open court — Lindsay's own attorney disclosed it and told the judge Patrick had lived through one of the worst tragedies a person can survive. Three providers who treated Lindsay have since testified, and civil filings name all three as defendants in the case some are calling a cover story. Hear the full breakdown and decide where the evidence actually points. Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lindsay Clancy's own defense attorney stood up in Plymouth Superior Court and said something about Patrick Clancy's remarriage that cuts directly against the theory that he's secretly guilty. Tony Brueski breaks down what actually got said, and why it matters. The backdrop: online accounts pulling hundreds of thousands of views are working through a full list of claims against Patrick — that he drugged his wife for months, that he held the restraints, that he staged the bedroom window, that the locked door was his doing, and that the remarriage itself is proof of motive. Tony takes the list item by item against courtroom testimony, including NMS Laboratories toxicologist Justin Brower's account of four medications found in Lindsay's blood and the direction an interior bedroom lock actually operates. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke joins to unpack why an internet crowd defaults to suspecting the husband almost on instinct, regardless of what the paper trail shows, and what would genuinely change their minds. His answer is more interesting than a simple 'nothing ever will.' Patrick's timeline is backed by CVS surveillance footage and phone records. The Plymouth County District Attorney has charged one person. State Police investigated and arrived at the same name. Nobody with subpoena power has pointed at Patrick. Three of the providers who treated Lindsay have now testified, and civil filings name all three as defendants — the same lawsuit some corners of the internet are calling a cover story. This episode pulls both threads together: the behavioral science of why the theory took hold, and the specific claims driving it, checked line by line against what witnesses actually said under oath. 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 David and Catherine Birnie, the Australian couple who terrorized Perth over five weeks in 1986, abducting, raping, and murdering five women before a survivor's extraordinary courage brought them down. Candice examines how David's history of violent sexual sadism and Catherine's lifelong terror of being left behind made them not just compatible, but catastrophic -- a partnership that turned shared damage into a killing spree that shook Australia to its core.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

For decades, Cuban intelligence has been seen as a force that punches above its weight. Shaped during the Cold War through cooperation with the Soviet Union, its intelligence officers received extensive training by the KGB. But where does Cuba's spy service stand today, especially as it faces pressure from Washington? Retired FBI special agent Peter J. Lapp, who wrote Queen of Cuba, came in to discuss Havana's capabilities, the Americans who spied for Cuba, and the Cubans who spied for us.

The letters at the center of the Nancy Guthrie disappearance are public at last, and they raise more questions than the six months of silence that preceded them. Tony Brueski and retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke take on the listener mailbag for the case that has gripped the country since an 84-year-old mother vanished from her Tucson home.The first note promised her safe return for $4 million in Bitcoin and carried details from inside the house to prove itself. The second withdrew everything — no demand, no negotiation, just a claim that Nancy perished shortly after she was taken and a wish that her children find peace. Retired FBI agents told CBS News that people motivated by money don't abandon $4 million, and that one writer likely produced both letters. Meanwhile the sheriff's own words the day before the release, and a Wall Street Journal accounting of the investigation's early missteps, have listeners asking who exactly is in control of this case.From the daughter worried about her own mother living alone to the question of what the renewed search behind Nancy's home really means, these are the eight questions this case comes down to.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A former FBI agent had said Bryan Kohberger may have returned to the neighborhood surrounding the King Road residence hours after the murders to observe the “fruits of his actions.” Cellphone data cited in the probable-cause affidavit had indicated that Kohberger's phone traveled near the victims' home between approximately 9:12 and 9:21 on the morning after Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were killed. Retired FBI agent Bobby Chacon had described the alleged return as classic criminal behavior, suggesting Kohberger may have expected to see police cars, ambulances and emergency activity outside the house. Chacon had acknowledged that his explanation was speculative but said some offenders revisited crime scenes to experience the excitement or witness the consequences of what they had done.Chacon had also considered whether Kohberger may have returned to recover the knife sheath that investigators later found beside Madison Mogen's body, although he believed that explanation was less likely. He had suggested Kohberger may have seen the surviving roommate who encountered a masked man inside the house but continued toward the exit because she was not part of his alleged plan and he was physically exhausted after the attacks. According to Chacon, the killer may have experienced an adrenaline crash following the violence and focused entirely on escaping. His comments had attempted to explain Kohberger's alleged movements and behavior, but they had represented an expert interpretation rather than a conclusion established by the affidavit itself.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger Drove By To See 'Fruits of His Actions,' Ex-FBI Agent Says (msn.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Gary Ridgway, known as the Green River Killer. Beginning in the summer of 1982, young women began vanishing from a stretch of highway south of Seattle -- and for nearly two decades, the man responsible kept painting trucks, attending church, and living what looked like an unremarkable suburban life. What investigators eventually uncovered was a killer unlike any other: not a criminal mastermind, but a painfully ordinary man whose greatest weapon was the fact that no one looked twice at him. Candice examines how a deeply troubled childhood, a consuming hatred of the women he couldn't stop seeking out, and an almost inhuman capacity for compartmentalization allowed one man to commit 49 confirmed murders -- and nearly get away with all of them.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Nancy Guthrie, Bryan Kohberger, Nolan Wells — three cases where the system failed and the families are doing the work. Retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer examines all three in a single conversation: the Pima County sheriff's inability to accurately describe his own case's only conviction, Kohberger's petition to undo four sworn confessions using language borrowed from a book, and the Mississippi medical examiner whose track record on police-involved deaths should concern anyone waiting for Nolan Wells' autopsy results. The connective tissue is institutional failure. The question is who answers for it.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The only conviction in the Nancy Guthrie case is for fake ransom texts — and the sheriff running the investigation publicly stated the wrong sentence. Retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer examines the gap between what Sheriff Nanos told the public about Derrick Callella's disposition and what the plea agreement actually reads. From there, the conversation moves to the complete communication failure between the FBI and Pima County, Savannah Guthrie's new video plea and the pointed language that suggests she knows something the rest of us don't, and an assault near Nancy's neighborhood with a suspect matching the porch figure's description. Coffindaffer brings twenty-eight years of FBI experience to a case that, six months in, has produced no named suspect and no arrest.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Before Dr. Staci Turner ever touched Nolan Wells' case, she ruled a previous in-custody death "undetermined" — contradicting her own autopsy findings of neck injuries consistent with compression. Three national forensic experts reviewed the same evidence and said homicide. The deputy at that arrest walked free until federal prosecutors convicted him in the Goon Squad cases. Now Turner holds Nolan Wells' sealed autopsy results, the DA won't set a date to unseal them, and nobody has ever reviewed Turner's prior ruling or her continued fitness for the office. Retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer walks through the credibility problem — even if Turner's work on Nolan's case is flawless, the trust gap created by Cameron means the results carry an asterisk before anyone reads them. This conversation covers the institutional framework that protects the process without ever being accountable to the families demanding answers.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What connects the Nancy Guthrie disappearance, Bryan Kohberger's plea reversal, and Nolan Wells' sealed autopsy? The institutions tasked with answering for each of them. Retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer covers all three cases in one conversation — the sheriff who can't describe his own conviction, the petition built on a book instead of court records, and the medical examiner whose prior ruling let a deputy walk until federal prosecutors caught up with him for something worse. Three investigations where the people in charge have given the families more reasons to doubt than to trust. Three families who decided not to wait.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nancy Guthrie has been missing from her Tucson home for six months. In that time, exactly one person has been convicted of anything — Derrick Callella, who pled guilty to sending fake ransom texts to her family. When Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos described that conviction publicly, he stated a sentence that doesn't match the plea agreement. Retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down what that tells us about the investigation's trajectory, the total communication failure between the FBI and the sheriff's office, and what Savannah Guthrie's latest video plea — the most pointed language she has ever used publicly — might signal about where this case is heading. This conversation covers the institutional cracks, the similar home invasion thirty miles away, and whether law enforcement dysfunction in Pima County is making the community less safe.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Thirteen months after admitting under oath that he deliberately killed four University of Idaho students, Bryan Kohberger claims a book convinced him he's innocent. His petition points to evidence in Ethan Chapin's hand that he says was never disclosed — but unsealed documents show a defense expert already tested it, and it matched the victim. Retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer walks through what the petition actually says versus what the forensic record contains, why Kohberger's language mirrors a published book rather than legal filings, and the one procedural move that would make or break his case: whether former defense attorney Anne Taylor admits under oath that she failed her client. The families were promised no more appeals. Prosecutor Bill Thompson put that in writing. That promise was never his to make.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nobody ever reviewed Dr. Staci Turner's ruling in the Damien Cameron case — three independent experts said she got it wrong, and she kept her job. Now she holds the sealed autopsy results for eighteen-year-old Nolan Wells. Retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer examines the structural problem: a medical examiner whose credibility was challenged by three national pathologists and never held to account, now sitting on findings that a family and a country are waiting for. The conversation covers Hunter Elward's presence at Cameron's arrest and his later federal conviction in the Goon Squad cases, the DA's control over the grand jury process with no committed timeline, and what Mississippi's history demands of an investigation that involves a Black teenager found dead near a barrier island with no answers.LinksJoin 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 unravels the disturbing disappearance of 50-year-old mother of five, Jennifer Dulos. After dropping off her children at school one morning in 2019 and failing to pick them back up, Jennifer was reported missing. But soon enough, evidence would reveal a horrifying truth: Jennifer was murdered. And authorities would soon discover that her estranged husband, Fotis Dulos, and his girlfriend, Michelle Troconis, were the suspects behind the sinister conspiracy. Candice explores how an inflated sense of self and narcissitic injury contributed to Fotis Dulos' escalating rage, and examines how partnership -- and possible coercive control -- entangled Michelle Troconis in an unthinkable plot.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

A search warrant tied to an unrelated matter brought deputies to a house on Ohmer Street in Hamden, Ohio. They came out with sixteen children, ages eighteen months to eighteen years, and arrested four adults: the grandfather, the grandmother, the father and the mother. Each was charged with sixteen counts of endangering children, and all four have pleaded not guilty.The next day, Ohio's attorney general put a timeline on it in public. Based on what he had seen, he said, waiting a specific amount of time longer carried a very high probability of a death or multiple deaths of those children.Retired FBI special agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony to work through what kind of thinking produces a house like that. Dreeke ran the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, and his entire career has been about understanding motivation rather than reciting it.The sheriff said the children were kept for most of four years in a room about twelve feet by twelve feet, and that most of the livestock in his county was kept in better conditions. The attorney general called the conditions almost indescribable.The defense frame is completely different. Elizabeth Siders' attorney says this is poverty and isolation rather than evil, and that evil requires malice. He also says his client is the mother of all sixteen children. She was fifteen in 2008 when a judge signed off on her marriage to an eighteen-year-old.Court records show more than one teenage marriage in this family across two generations. The school district has no record that any of the sixteen were ever enrolled. Investigators say the family avoided building medical and government records for nearly two decades.END_LINKSJoin 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 horrifying case of Jeffrey Dahmer, one of America's most infamous serial killers. Between 1978 and 1991, young men and boys began disappearing from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, many from vulnerable communities whose disappearances drew little attention. When police finally uncovered the truth inside Dahmer's apartment, they found evidence of unimaginable brutality that shocked the nation. By the time he was arrested, 17 victims had been murdered. Candice explores how Dahmer's compulsive fantasies, profound emotional isolation, and escalating need for control evolved into increasingly gruesome crimes, and how missed opportunities by law enforcement allowed one of history's most notorious killers to evade capture for years.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Nancy Guthrie's family got fake ransom demands while search teams looked for her, and the man behind them just walked out of federal court with probation. Tony Brueski unpacks the plea deal, the sentence, and why it's landing as a slap in the face to everyone who's followed this case. Harassment. That's what the four-million-dollar ransom note and the follow-up apology letter got reduced to. Five years of probation, every count running concurrently. Retired FBI special agent Jennifer Coffindaffer put it plainly on the record: this outcome is a travesty, and it could invite more of the copycat extortion attempts investigators have started calling the TMZ Twelve. The apology letter is its own strange piece of this. Sent only to local television stations, it called Nancy's death an accident, a claim nobody investigating this case has confirmed. Both that letter and the original ransom note were reportedly traced to the same IP address, one of the only real leads on the table. Porch Guy, another person connected to the case, still hasn't been identified or taken in. And the contradictions don't stop with the hoaxer. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has spent this case fielding pointed questions about his own record, including one moment where he told a reporter to enjoy his hit piece instead of answering. The FBI and the Sheriff's Department keep pointing at each other over who's actually running point, and a retired agent says there's real disagreement inside the Bureau over whether some of the evidence holds up. Even the physical evidence has a strange trail. One key item reportedly flew to Florida and back before anyone bothered running it against a database, which is not exactly standard operating procedure. Nancy Guthrie is still missing. This is everything on the record right now. Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Somewhere in this Nancy Guthrie case, the truth got lost in the paperwork, and Tony Brueski found it while combing through the record. The man who sent fake ransom demands to her family, while search teams were trying to find her, just took a plea deal that looks more like a parking ticket than a threat wired straight into a grieving family's phone. Harassment. That's the charge he pleaded to. Two years capped at the federal level, but he walked away with five years of probation and every count running concurrently. Retired FBI special agent Jennifer Coffindaffer called it a travesty on the record, and she's not wrong to worry, investigators are already tracking a dozen copycat extortion attempts agents have nicknamed the TMZ Twelve. Then there's the four-million-dollar ransom note, the strange apology letter mailed only to local television stations calling Nancy's death an accident, and the fact that both were reportedly traced back to the same IP address, one of the few solid threads investigators actually have. Porch Guy, the person connected to the case, still hasn't been identified or picked up. Meanwhile, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos is fielding his own set of questions. Discrepancies in his record, a reporter pushing back, and an answer that amounted to telling him to enjoy his hit piece. The FBI and the Sheriff's Department can't agree on jurisdiction, can't agree on which ransom notes are real, and reportedly disagree internally over whether some of the evidence even holds up. One of the case's most valuable physical clues reportedly flew to Florida and back before investigators ever ran it against a database, a detail that hasn't gotten nearly the attention it deserves given everything riding on it. Nancy Guthrie is still missing. This is where the case actually stands. Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Send us Fan MailHe walked away from the pulpit because the stress would not let his body rest, then spent the next two decades staring straight at humanity's darkest corners. I'm joined by Eric Robinson, newly retired after 24 years in the FBI, to talk about resilience that's earned, not posted. Eric shares how carrying other people's pain as a solo pastor led to daily headaches, and why choosing a new path was a mental health decision as much as a career move.From there, we trace his unusual transition into federal law enforcement, including how the post 9-11 environment and his background shaped the Bureau's interest. We also get real about maturity and judgment in high-stakes work: what experience gives you, why authenticity matters with first responders, and how a “mask” culture can quietly grind people down.Then we go deeper into the cases that leave a mark: sex trafficking, exploitation, gangs, and the challenge of staying compassionate without being naive. Eric explains why justice can't depend on a “perfect victim,” and he tells a moment from Chicago that re-centered him fast when a kid he judged as a nuisance asked for help getting home. We close with a look at how he approaches interviews and interrogations by building connection and psychological safety to get the truth, not to perform anger.If you care about first responder mental health, trauma-informed leadership, and real-world resilience skills, hit play, then subscribe, share this with a teammate, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Please reach Eric through his website at http://www.preachertobreacher.comDeemedFit: First Responder OwnedWe are a first responder owned company looking to get first responders in the best mental shape.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

After a stunning reversal, in May, 2026, Alex Murdaugh was granted a new trial for the murders of his wife and son, after the South Carolina appeals court ruled that the actions of a former County Clerk had unfairly impacted his trial. In this encore episode, Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong revisits her conversation with Wall Street Journal national affairs reporter and New York Times bestselling author Valerie Bauerlein in which they discuss the whirlwind case of Alex Murdaugh. In 2023, Alex – a respected attorney and patriarch of the ultra-powerful Murdaugh family dynasty – was convicted of murder in the deaths of his wife, Maggie, and his son, Paul. Candice and Valerie discuss what it was like to be in the courtroom, what Valerie learned about Alex and the Murdaugh family's influence in South Carolina's lowcountry, and how her reporting and exclusive access came together in her book, The Devil at his Elbow: Alex Murdaugh and the Fall of a Southern Dynasty. Valerie also, correctly, predicted in this episode that Murdaugh would likely get a new trial.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Nancy Guthrie is still missing six months later, but a separate criminal case connected to her disappearance just came to an end. A California man pleaded guilty to sending the Guthrie family fake bitcoin ransom demands while the active search for her was still underway. The reason people are angry is the outcome. His charge was pled down to harassment, capped at two years in the federal system, and he ultimately received five years of probation, with both counts running together instead of being stacked. Retired FBI special agent Jennifer Coffindaffer called it a travesty, warning the sentence could set a precedent that emboldens the wave of copycat notes still coming in — a group being called the TMZ Twelve, which the FBI has reportedly suggested are likely not authentic. Two separate notes are being treated very differently by investigators. One demanded four million dollars, threatened to raise it to six million, and warned Nancy would be killed. The other is an apology letter, sent only to local television stations, expressing remorse and calling her death an accident. Both are reportedly linked to the same IP address, which investigators consider one of the strongest leads they have. There's also the mystery of Porch Guy, someone connected to the case who hasn't been publicly identified or arrested, despite legal tools used successfully in other investigations that could help track him down faster. We break down the sentence, the notes, and where this investigation actually stands. New episode is up now — link below. Social Links & Legal Footer Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nancy Guthrie's disappearance is still unsolved after six months, but a separate case tied to it just wrapped up in court. A California man admitted to sending the Guthrie family fake bitcoin ransom demands during the active search for her — and the punishment he received has former investigators furious. His charge was pled down to harassment, which caps out at two years federally. The sentence: five years of probation, with both counts running together instead of stacked on top of each other. Retired FBI special agent Jennifer Coffindaffer called the outcome a travesty, warning it sets a precedent that could encourage the flood of copycat notes still coming in — a batch investigators are calling the TMZ Twelve, which the FBI has reportedly signaled are likely fake. Two other notes are being handled very differently by investigators. One is considered the real ransom demand — four million dollars, an escalating threat, and a final threat against Nancy's life. The other is an apology letter, sent only to local television stations, expressing remorse and calling her death accidental. Both of those, according to reporting, trace back to the same IP address, giving agents one of their only real leads. Then there's Porch Guy — a person connected to the case who hasn't been identified publicly or taken into custody, even though tools like highway checkpoints have worked in comparable investigations before. We go through the sentence, the notes, and why six months in, this case still doesn't have the answers everyone expected by now. Full episode is up now — link below. Social Links & Legal Footer Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Six months into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance, one case connected to it just closed — and it's not the one anyone's been waiting on. A California man pleaded guilty to sending the Guthrie family fake bitcoin ransom demands while the search for Nancy was still active. What he actually got for it is the part that's sparking outrage. The charge was pled down to harassment, which tops out at two years federally, and the resulting sentence was five years of probation, with both counts running concurrently rather than adding up. Retired FBI special agent Jennifer Coffindaffer didn't hold back, calling it a travesty and warning it could embolden the copycats still flooding investigators with fake notes — a group now nicknamed the TMZ Twelve, which the FBI has reportedly indicated are likely not real. Two other notes are being treated as potentially legitimate. The first demanded four million dollars, threatened to raise it to six million, and warned Nancy would be killed if it wasn't paid. The second is an apology letter sent only to local television stations, expressing remorse and calling her death an accident — a letter some believe may have been written with AI. Investigators reportedly connected both notes to the same IP address, one of the few solid threads in the entire investigation. We also get into Porch Guy, a person tied to the case who remains unidentified publicly and hasn't been apprehended, despite legal tools that have worked in comparable cases to track a suspect down. Catch the full conversation now — link in the description. Social Links & Legal Footer 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 infamous case of Albert DeSalvo, the man who confessed to being the Boston Strangler. In the early 1960s, a wave of fear swept through Boston as women were found murdered in their homes, many of them sexually assaulted and strangled. As the body count grew, investigators struggled to determine whether a single killer was responsible or if multiple predators were operating at once. When DeSalvo emerged as a suspect, his detailed confessions seemed to provide long-awaited answers, but questions about his true role in the murders would persist for decades. Candice examines how DeSalvo's troubled childhood, compulsive criminal behavior, and escalating violence may have shaped one of the most notorious criminal cases in American history, and why the mystery surrounding the Boston Strangler continues to challenge investigators and criminologists to this day.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Months after Rob and Michele Reiner were found stabbed in their own home, their son Nick's case still hadn't reached a preliminary hearing — and the reason is striking. The autopsy reports weren't finished, terabytes of discovery were still changing hands, and the whole proceeding got pushed to the fall. This look back unpacks what a delay like that actually tells you.Eric Faddis — criminal defense attorney and former felony prosecutor — joins to read the tea leaves. Is the holdup routine, or is the defense using the time to build something? Given Nick's documented history of schizoaffective disorder and a prior conservatorship, is a mental health defense effectively inevitable? And what does it do to a victim's family when the system can't even finish the paperwork on how their loved ones died? Jake, Romy, and Tracy have been watching this crawl forward one postponed date at a time.We revisit where things stood at the time of our reporting, then turn to the more disturbing thread running alongside it. According to tabloid reports carried across several outlets, Nick is allegedly planning a tell-all from his cell aimed at the siblings who cut him off. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke breaks down the contradiction: someone reportedly described as almost childlike behind bars, allegedly driven at the same time by something that looks a lot like a vendetta. We treat that reporting as the unverified tabloid sourcing it is — and ask what it would reveal if it's true.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In the final part of this three-part series, retired FBI agent Scott brings us to the end of one of the most significant domestic terrorism cases in American history. Justice is served for the people of Oklahoma City. But for Scott, closing a case like this doesn't mean leaving it behind. Some cases stay with you. This is one of them. 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. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

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.

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.

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.

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 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 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.
