The Tenpenny Files – China-style surveillance expands quietly across everyday life through comforting language and invisible technology. Tracking, monitoring, and conditional access arrive as convenience, not force. As habits become data and data becomes leverage, compliance feels normal and refusal simply limits options. Control emerges gradually, built into systems already accepted, automated, and difficult to challenge before...

The man accused of murdering Monique Tepe and her husband Dr. Spencer Tepe pleaded not guilty on January 23rd to four counts of aggravated murder. Michael McKee, 39, Monique's ex-husband, appeared via video before a Franklin County magistrate and waived bond. He remains in custody. Prosecutors allege McKee, a vascular surgeon, traveled from Illinois to Columbus and killed the couple in the early morning hours of December 30th. Spencer was shot multiple times. Monique sustained a gunshot wound to the chest. Their two children, ages four and one, were found inside the home unharmed. Columbus Police Chief Elaine Bryant has called this a "targeted" and "domestic violence related attack." Investigators say surveillance footage places McKee's vehicle at the scene before and after the killings. When multiple firearms were seized from his Rockford property, preliminary ballistic analysis linked one weapon to three 9mm shell casings recovered from the Tepe residence. The charges carry firearm specifications for using a gun and a suppressor. McKee is represented by Diane Menashe, who previously defended Dr. William Husel. Monique divorced McKee in 2017. She married Spencer in 2019. If convicted, McKee faces a minimum of life with parole eligibility after 32 years—or life without parole.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #TepeMurders #ColumbusOhio #AggravatedMurder #BallisticEvidence #DomesticViolenceHomicide #JusticeForTepe #TepeCaseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Tara exposes what she calls the real story the media refuses to touch — not church disruptions, not optics, but hundreds of millions of federal dollars tied to organized fraud, activist enforcement, and violent obstruction of federal investigations ⚠️

In 2014, Jeffrey Epstein — through his estate's representatives — submitted a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to U.S. Customs and Border Protection seeking records that would reveal whether and how he had been subject to any monitoring, surveillance, questioning, or investigation by the agency years after his 2008 guilty plea to solicitation of prostitution involving a minor. The request asked for documents that could illuminate how, why, or when Epstein was flagged as a subject of interest by border officials, a detail long obscured from public view. This unusual FOIA filing, uncovered by investigative reporter Jason Leopold, shows Epstein actively trying to understand the scope of government scrutiny against him long before the recent push to release a much broader cache of files tied to his case.The story comes amid ongoing controversy surrounding the federal government's handling of material related to Epstein's criminal conduct and alleged networks. Under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, passed by Congress in November 2025, the Department of Justice was required to release all investigative records within 30 days, but as of early 2026 had only shared a tiny fraction of the millions of documents potentially responsive to that mandate. Epstein's FOIA request adds another layer to the public's scrutiny of what information federal agencies collected and retained about him, and how much remains hidden or heavily redacted decades after key events in the case.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein Filed a FOIA Request - Bloomberg

2. Minneapolis Situation & ICE Confrontations A. Escalating Conflict Recent fatal confrontations between civilians and ICE agents in Minneapolis. Two individuals (not known to be violent criminals) have been killed during encounters. Host urges toning down rhetoric from both political sides to prevent further escalation. B. Comparison Between Texas and Minnesota Texas sees far more ICE arrests but fewer violent confrontations. Reasons suggested: Texas law enforcement cooperates with ICE. Minnesota politicians (governor/mayor) allegedly encourage public confrontation with ICE. C. Violent Protest Structure Minneapolis protests are organized, funded, and oper­ated similarly to military groups. Reports mentioned: Surveillance operations against law enforcement Protesters allegedly sabotaging vehicles and physically attacking officers Autonomous‑zone style barricades forming in some areas 3. Responsibility & Advice Regarding Police Encounters Do not escalate encounters with law enforcement. Entering a protest with a firearm greatly increases danger for everyone involved. Legal principles discussed: Lethal force is justified if officers reasonably believe there is a threat. Officers cannot shoot fleeing suspects unless they pose serious immediate danger. 4. Media Narratives & Political Messaging A. Suburban Women as Target Audience Democrats viewed as shaping narratives (e.g., “ICE shoots mother of three,” “ICE detains 5‑year‑old”) to emotionally influence suburban voters. Hosts argue some widely publicized stories were misleading or false. B. Claims of Political Motives Democrats are using these incidents to distract from: A major Minnesota fraud scandal involving billions of dollars. Each new confrontation diverts media attention from that scandal. 5. Anticipated Government Shutdown A. Democrat Position Multiple Democratic leaders publicly oppose funding DHS/ICE at current levels. Statements from Senators (Schumer, Warren, Murphy) emphasize refusal to pass DHS funding bill without ICE restrictions. B. Hosts’ Conclusion They expect a government shutdown, driven by attempts to: Defund or weaken ICE Appeal to progressive voters Control political narrative ahead of elections Shutdown would affect agencies not yet funded (e.g., Defense, Labor, Education, HHS, HUD, DHS).

The people who built the domestic terror apparatus are suddenly terrified it's being used. Professor Nick Giordano exposes the receipts they don't want you to see. When protest stops being protest and turns into intimidation, coercion, and violence, the government's response exposes a dangerous line between law enforcement and ideological control. This episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast examines NSPM-7 and the National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism through a critical lens, separating lawful dissent and peaceful protest from the extremism now playing out in cities like Minneapolis. It explains how bureaucratic power expanded under the banner of public safety, why political elites are suddenly alarmed, and how pre-crime logic threatens constitutional liberties regardless of who holds office. What You'll Learn The clear legal and moral difference between peaceful protest and political extremism How NSPM-7 redefined dissent, association, and ideology as threat indicators Why intimidation, harassment, and obstruction cross the line from protest into extremism How Operation Arctic Frost and Prohibited Access files reveal institutional concealment and abuse Why dismantling domestic terrorism frameworks matters more than partisan outcomes This episode confronts selective outrage, exposes constitutional rot, and explains why a free society must protect lawful protest while rejecting extremism enforced through mobs or bureaucratic power.

Adam Cordova, retired LASD Deputy, in Episode 232 of the Transition Drill Podcast, shares what it really looks like to build a long law enforcement career without letting the job become your entire identity, for veterans and first responders navigating transition, retirement, and the next chapter. You'll hear Adam on his time in the SHU, to Gangs, then to secret squirrel stuff, and today a podcaster. All while balancing staying solid at home while still being great at the job.Adam grew up in the LA area in places like Compton, Lynwood, Inglewood, in the shadows of Firestone station, in an environment where you learn early how to carry yourself and how fast things can go wrong. He talks about a strict but fair father, being responsible for his brothers, and making a point to stay out of gangs even with that influence close by; his father was an OG “Veterano.” By his senior year, he was living on his own, working, and learning how to survive.Before law enforcement, Adam chased the fire service hard; he actually didn't like cops. He trained at stations, tested well, and thought he was headed that direction, but the process dragged out and felt like a game. A friend pushed him to test for the Sheriff's Department as a backup. That “backup” turned into the career.Adam got hired in 1990, and his early years were exactly what a lot of people don't want, but every agency needs: the jails, then court services. He talks about how that time either sharpens you or stalls you out, depending on what you bring to the work. In 1995, he finally hit patrol, and his first station was Walnut Station, which ended up being a lot busier than people assume. Walnut trained him in North County areas with gangs, drugs, and real calls, and he learned fast that a good cop can work anywhere if they actually want to work.From there, Adam moved into specialized work, including OSS, and later spent 11 years living the callout life where nights, weekends, and family time get sacrificed without anyone asking your permission. When homicide came up as the next “expected” move, he made a different decision and went to Tech Ops instead. He breaks down what that world actually looks like: trackers, bugs, hidden cameras, microphones, bug sweeps, digital evidence, and working warrants across the county with a small team that was basically on-call nonstop.Adam retired in 2022, and today he's still creating in a different way, working with graphic design and video production, something he'd been doing as a serious hobby for years. He also started his own podcast: A Proper Scoundrel, where he talks with former cops about the stories of their careers. Adam has a great story and offers great advice and perspective on having a long law enforcement career.The best podcast for military veterans, police officers, firefighters, and first responders preparing for veteran transition and life after service.

A vascular surgeon with no criminal record. A Chicago penthouse. A firearm that police say matches shell casings from a double homicide 300 miles away. And eight years of alleged obsession that ended with Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer dead while their children slept down the hall.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke—who headed the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program—identifies Dr. Michael McKee as a potential "wound collector." These are people who don't move on from perceived injuries. They catalog grievances, assign blame, and carry resentment for years until it explodes. Dreeke breaks down how wound collectors think, how high-functioning professionals mask dangerous resentment, what finally triggers them to act, and how they convince themselves they're the victim. Understanding this psychology might help someone recognize the signs before the next tragedy.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer analyzes the forensic evidence. Surveillance footage captured McKee's vehicle arriving before the killings and leaving after. A hooded figure walked through an alley at 3:52 AM. A preliminary NIBIN ballistics match ties a firearm from McKee's penthouse to the crime scene. But the investigation raises questions: how did someone allegedly enter the Tepe home with no forced entry? And why would a surgeon—someone whose entire career is built on precision—allegedly keep the murder weapon in his own apartment for eleven days?Coffindaffer examines the behavioral red flags that emerged months before, including a malpractice process server who tried nine times to locate McKee at addresses that didn't exist. She explains what investigators are holding back, what the defense will exploit, and why waiving extradition might be calculated. McKee maintains his innocence and plans to plead not guilty to two counts of premeditated aggravated murder.#TeepeMurders #MichaelMcKee #WoundCollector #RobinDreeke #JenniferCoffindaffer #TrueCrimeToday #FBI #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #NIBINJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The physical evidence is now overwhelming. Columbus police confirmed the murder weapon was recovered from Dr. Michael McKee's Chicago penthouse eleven days after Spencer and Monique Tepe were shot dead in their Columbus home. NIBIN matched shell casings from the bedroom to a firearm seized from his residence. Multiple weapons were recovered. His alibi collapsed before his arrest. ATF picked him up at a Chick-fil-A seven minutes from the hospital where he worked overnight shifts. Surveillance footage places him near the Tepe home during the murder window. Police labeled this a "targeted domestic violence attack."But the paper trail tells a different story than the family's. Rob Misleh appeared on Good Morning America and said Monique told him McKee was emotionally abusive during their brief marriage. "She just had to get away from him." He said she was willing to do anything to escape, that the family knew about the torment. Misleh called McKee a monster, said Monique never spoke his name after the divorce—only "her ex-husband." She was always worried. But nobody thought he'd actually do it.The 2017 divorce documents show none of this. No domestic violence allegations. No protection orders. No restraining orders. Just "incompatibility." Attorney Eric Faddis explains why so many victims choose silence—the calculation that documenting abuse creates more danger than it prevents. He breaks down how the legal system treats emotional abuse compared to physical abuse and what options exist for victims who recognize their own situation in Monique's story.Eight years passed between the divorce and the murders. Then in June 2025, something brought McKee and Monique back into the court system. Six months later, she was dead. Eric examines what that timeline suggests and where the system's limits are when a threat was never officially recorded. McKee faces two counts of aggravated murder with prior calculation and design. Death penalty eligible. He plans to plead not guilty.#TeepeMurders #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #MurderWeapon #TrueCrimeToday #EricFaddis #DomesticViolence #NIBIN #EmotionalAbuseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Rob Misleh said something on Good Morning America that stops you cold: "She just had to get away from him." He said Monique told him Dr. Michael McKee was emotionally abusive. That she was willing to do anything to escape. That many in the family knew about the torment. Misleh called McKee a monster, said Monique never spoke his name after the 2017 divorce—only "her ex-husband." She was always worried. But nobody thought he'd actually do it.Now look at the court records. No domestic violence allegations. No protection orders. No restraining orders. The divorce paperwork says "incompatibility." That's it. If you read those documents blind, you'd think this was the most amicable split in Ohio history. The family knew the truth. The legal system never did.Police just confirmed the murder weapon was recovered from McKee's Chicago penthouse. NIBIN matched shell casings from the Tepe bedroom to a firearm seized from his residence. His alibi collapsed before his arrest. ATF picked him up at a Chick-fil-A seven minutes from the hospital where he worked. Surveillance footage places him near the Tepe home during the murder window. He allegedly drove 300 miles to execute his ex-wife and her husband while their two children slept in separate rooms.Attorney Eric Faddis examines why so many victims choose not to document abuse in divorce proceedings—the fear that it makes things worse, the belief that staying quiet means staying safe. He breaks down how the legal system treats emotional abuse compared to physical abuse and whether it carries less weight in court. Then there's June 2025: eight years after the divorce, something brought McKee and Monique back into the court system. Six months later, she was dead. For anyone who recognizes their own situation in Monique's story, Eric offers guidance on what steps victims can take when the system wasn't built to see the threat coming.#MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #MichaelMcKee #EricFaddis #DomesticViolence #EmotionalAbuse #HiddenKillers #MurderWeapon #NIBIN #TeepeMurdersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two FBI experts. One case that demands both behavioral and forensic analysis. We're breaking down Dr. Michael McKee live—examining the psychology of an alleged eight-year obsession and the evidence trail that led police to charge him with premeditated aggravated murder.Robin Dreeke spent 32 years at the FBI, including heading the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. He identifies McKee as a potential "wound collector"—someone who doesn't let go of perceived injuries, who catalogs grievances and carries them for years until they explode. Dreeke explains what separates someone who moves on from a failed marriage versus someone who allegedly stews for eight years then drives 300 miles to kill his ex-wife and her husband while their children sleep down the hall. We examine how high-functioning surgeons can mask dangerous resentment, what triggers wound collectors to finally act, and how they flip the narrative to see themselves as victims.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer analyzes the forensic case. Surveillance footage shows McKee's vehicle arriving before the killings and leaving after. A preliminary NIBIN ballistics match connects a firearm from his Chicago penthouse to shell casings at the scene. Police recovered the alleged murder weapon eleven days after the crime. But why would a surgeon—someone whose career demands precision—allegedly keep the gun? Coffindaffer examines the no-forced-entry mystery, the behavioral red flags months before including a malpractice process server who couldn't locate McKee at nine different addresses, and what investigators are likely holding back.McKee had no criminal record. No documented threats. Nothing on paper that flagged him as dangerous. He maintains his innocence.

Columbus police just confirmed it: the murder weapon was inside Michael McKee's Chicago penthouse. NIBIN matched shell casings from the Tepe bedroom to a firearm recovered from his residence. Multiple weapons seized. His alibi fell apart before his arrest at a Chick-fil-A seven minutes from the hospital where he worked overnight shifts. Surveillance footage places him at the scene. The charges are aggravated murder with prior calculation and design—death penalty eligible.But the story the family is telling doesn't match a single document in the court system. Rob Misleh went on Good Morning America and said what the legal record never captured: Monique told him McKee was emotionally abusive during their seven-month marriage. "She just had to get away from him." Misleh called McKee a monster. Said Monique never spoke his name after the divorce—only "her ex-husband." That she was always worried. The family knew. They watched her look over her shoulder for eight years.The 2017 divorce paperwork? No domestic violence allegations. No protection orders. Just "incompatibility." The system saw nothing because nothing was ever documented. Attorney Eric Faddis joins us live to explain why victims make that choice—the fear that documentation escalates danger, the hope that silence buys safety. He breaks down how courts treat emotional abuse versus physical abuse and whether the distinction matters when someone's dead.Then there's the question nobody's answered: what happened in June 2025? Eight years after the divorce, something brought McKee and Monique back into the court system. Six months later, she and Spencer were murdered while their children slept down the hall. Eric examines whether the legal system can be weaponized to force contact with an ex-spouse—and what that pattern looks like before it turns fatal.#McKeeTepe #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #MurderWeapon #HiddenKillersLive #EricFaddis #DomesticViolence #EmotionalAbuse #LiveBreakdownJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

With CCTV cameras on almost every street corner, London is the European capital with the most video surveillance, and facial recognition is becoming increasingly prevalent. According to London's Metropolitan Police, this tool allows them to be more efficient in making arrests. But locals are divided on its implications for their privacy. Our France 2 colleagues report, with FRANCE 24's Florent Marchais.

In late December, Monique and Spencer Tepe were found shot to death inside their Ohio home, the same place where they had once exchanged wedding vows. The killings happened in the early morning hours while their two young children slept in nearby bedrooms, unharmed and unaware. There were no signs of forced entry and no weapon left behind.Surveillance footage later showed a hooded figure walking calmly through a snowy alley near the townhouse around the time of the murders. Investigators also tracked a vehicle seen arriving shortly before the shooting and leaving soon after. That vehicle was traced more than four hundred miles away to Rockford, Illinois and linked to Monique's ex husband, Michael McKee.McKee was arrested and charged with two counts of aggravated murder. Prosecutors allege he drove overnight, committed the killings, and returned home as if nothing had happened.Update: Family members now say McKee emotionally tormented Monique during their short marriage and describe the relationship as abusive. Police also report that during a search of McKee's condo, multiple firearms were recovered and one weapon is believed to be a ballistic match to shell casings found at the crime scene. These are allegations, and the case will ultimately be decided in court.Two parents are gone. Two children are left behind. And now a jury will be asked to decide whether this was an act of long held resentment, obsession, or something even darker.

Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins True Crime Today for comprehensive analysis of the week's biggest cases. First: the Michael McKee investigation. Police have a ballistics match linking a firearm from McKee's Chicago penthouse to shell casings at the Columbus crime scene where his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer were killed. Surveillance footage places his vehicle at the Tepe home before and after the murders. But investigators haven't explained how he allegedly got inside with no forced entry — or why a surgeon would keep the murder weapon for eleven days. Second: the psychology behind the alleged murders. Monique Tepe did everything right. She left after seven months of marriage. She didn't fight for the house or the rings. She moved home, rebuilt her life, married Spencer, had two children. She never spoke McKee's name again — only called him "her ex-husband." Her family says they suspected him from day one but stayed quiet to protect the investigation. Eight years wasn't enough distance. Coffindaffer explains why. Third: day three of the Brendan Banfield trial. McDonald's surveillance video shows Banfield receiving Juliana's call at 7:37 AM — the exact moment she says was the signal that Joseph Ryan had arrived. The murder knife was hidden under blankets. Christine's phone was in a drawer. But Banfield's DNA wasn't on the knife because police allowed him to wash his hands first. Coffindaffer breaks down what this evidence means for both sides and what the defense needs to do to recover from three days of testimony that hasn't gone their way.#MoniqueTepe #MichaelMcKee #TepeMurders #BrendanBanfield #ChristineBanfield #TrueCrimeToday #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBIAnalysis #DomesticViolence #MurderTrialJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

We're live with former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer for an extended deep dive into three major cases. We start with the investigation into Dr. Michael McKee, the Chicago surgeon charged with murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer. The ballistics match is confirmed. Surveillance places his vehicle at the scene. Police say he's the hooded figure in that alley at 3:52 AM. But how did he allegedly get inside with no forced entry? And why would someone with his training keep the murder weapon in his apartment for eleven days? Then we examine the psychology of the eight-year grudge. Monique left that marriage after seven months. She didn't fight for assets. She paid him back with interest. She moved home, rebuilt her life, married Spencer, had two children. She never said McKee's name again. Her family says they always knew. They suspected him from day one. Eight years later, police say he drove 300 miles in the middle of the night and killed her anyway. Coffindaffer explains why doing everything right sometimes isn't enough. Finally, we break down day three of the Brendan Banfield murder trial. McDonald's video corroborates Juliana's timeline — Banfield got her call at 7:37 AM, the signal that Joseph Ryan had arrived. The knife was hidden under blankets. Christine's phone was in a drawer. But Banfield's DNA wasn't on the knife because police let him wash his hands. Three cases. Three sets of questions.

Dr. Michael McKee is sitting in an Illinois jail charged with murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer in Columbus, Ohio. The evidence against him is mounting — a preliminary NIBIN match linking a firearm from his Chicago penthouse to shell casings at the crime scene, surveillance footage of his vehicle arriving before the killings and leaving after, and video of a hooded figure in the alley at 3:52 AM. But this investigation still has gaps. Police say there was no forced entry at the Tepe home. They haven't explained how McKee allegedly got inside. And they haven't addressed the question that's puzzling everyone who's followed this case: why would a vascular surgeon — a man whose career depends on precision — allegedly keep the murder weapon in his own apartment for eleven days? Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins True Crime Today to analyze the forensic evidence, the surveillance timeline, and what investigators might be holding back. We examine the behavioral red flags that emerged months before these murders — McKee allegedly gave his employer a fake address, a malpractice process server tried nine times to locate him without success, and a former colleague said he "just disappeared." Coffindaffer explains what these patterns suggest and why McKee's decision to talk to police before invoking his right to remain silent could be the prosecution's most valuable asset. The defense has already signaled their strategy — McKee waived extradition and requested a speedy return to Ohio to plead not guilty. What holes are they planning to exploit?#MoniqueTepe #MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #TrueCrimeToday #JenniferCoffindaffer #DoubleHomicide #ColumbusOhio #NIBINBallistics #SurveillanceEvidence #TrueCrimeNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week on That Tech Pod, Laura and Kevin sit down with Cindy Cohn, Executive Director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, to talk about the power structures hiding in plain sight across the internet, money, surveillance, and AI. Cindy breaks down what EFF actually does and why access to the internet is not just an infrastructure problem, but a civil liberties issue that shapes who gets heard, who gets tracked, and who gets left out.We get into how mass surveillance quietly became normal, from license plate readers to cell phone tracking, and why most people would be genuinely shocked if they saw the full picture. We also look ahead at financial surveillance, using Europe's move toward a Digital Euro as a case study, and ask where legitimate oversight ends and control begins. On the AI front, Cindy pushes back on the idea that privacy is already lost, and explains why treating opaque systems as inevitable only benefits the most powerful actors. Cindy makes a clear case that defending digital rights does not require being a technologist or a lawyer. It starts with staying skeptical, asking hard questions, and refusing to accept tools we are not allowed to understand or challenge. That is exactly why this conversation mattered, and why we were so glad to have her on.Cindy Cohn is the Executive Director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and previously served as EFF's Legal Director and General Counsel from 2000 to 2015. She has been involved with EFF since 1993, when she served as lead outside counsel in the landmark Bernstein v. U.S. Department of Justice case, a successful First Amendment challenge to U.S. export restrictions on cryptography. Her work has been widely recognized, with honors from Forbes, The National Law Journal, and The NonProfit Times for her influence in technology, law, and civil liberties. She is also the co-host of EFF's podcast, How to Fix the Internet, and the author of Privacy's Defender, published by MIT Press.

The Department of Homeland Security would need to follow stricter guidelines when using mobile biometric applications under legislation introduced Thursday by the ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee and other Democrats. The Realigning Mobile Phone Biometrics for American Privacy Protection Act seeks to prohibit the use of such technology except for identification at ports of entry, bars DHS from sharing the apps with non-law enforcement agencies, and implements a 12-hour storage limit on data in the apps. The legislation points to the DHS app Mobile Fortify, other mobile identification apps and potential successor apps as the prime targets. If the bill gains ground, DHS would need to remove the technology from any non-DHS IT systems and workflows outside the ports of entry. Mississippi's Bennie Thompson, the top Democrat on the Homeland Security Committee, said in a press release accompanying the bill's introduction: “DHS should not be conducting surveillance by experimenting with Americans' faces and fingerprints in the field — especially with unproven and biased technology. We can secure the Homeland and respect the rights and privacy of Americans at the same time.” The bill's other co-sponsors are Democratic Reps. Lou Correa of California, Shri Thanedar of Michigan, Yvette Clarke of New York, Grace Meng of New York, and Adriano Espaillat of New York. In written statements, members pointed to concerns around privacy, constitutional violations, civil liberties and the technology's potential deficiencies. The Army's top civilian leader said that the service will “kill NIPR” at multiple locations — likely starting next month — in an experiment to see if commercial internet solutions would be more effective. Speaking to soldiers at a town hall at Fort Drum, New York, on Monday, Army Secretary Dan Driscoll said “we're going to bring you down to the commercial internet and we think it will solve all sorts of problems.” If the evaluation is successful, the Army will scale it across the service, he added. NIPR, which stands for Non-classified Internet Protocol Router, is the military's communication network for unclassified information. Defense Department personnel can access commercial browsers or email through NIPR, for example, but the network is owned and secured by the military. An Army spokesperson told DefenseScoop that the service is evaluating “a shift” from NIPR to a commercial solution that can handle data at Impact Level 5. IL5 includes Controlled Unclassified Information, according to the Defense Information Systems Agency, which is considered sensitive and necessary to protect, but does not meet criteria for classification. The spokesperson said that the evaluation is intended to “cut costs, boost performance and enhance cybersecurity.” They added that the effort was in coordination with the Pentagon's Office of the Chief Information Officer, DISA and other military services.

In this explosive and eye-opening episode of Stacey on the Right, host Stacey Washington dives into the financial future the mainstream media refuses to talk about—joined by returning guest and economist Christian Briggs, CEO of Hard Asset Management and host of The Hard Asset Money Show. Together, they tackle the chilling implications of what Briggs calls “Surveillance Coin”—a digital financial system that gives third parties the power to freeze your funds, shut off your access, and eliminate your economic freedom with a single click.Briggs breaks down the hidden dangers embedded within the Genius Act, the bipartisan bill that greenlights third-party custody of digital assets—meaning you don't actually own your money anymore. No due process, no warning, no way to fight back. Just one flip of a switch and your digital dollars are gone. As Stacey and Christian remind listeners, the precedent has already been set—from the de-banking of conservative voices to Canada's freezing of truckers' bank accounts during the protests. It's here. And it's growing.In this jam-packed segment, Briggs reveals the shocking origin of the U.S. surveillance coin: a covert collaboration between the Federal Reserve and China, via the little-known Hamilton Project, a secretive CBDC prototype cooked up inside the Boston and New York Fed branches. Stacey pushes the conversation further, exploring how this ties to the CCP's model of programmable currency and mass compliance.But there's hope. Briggs lays out how President Trump is actively working to dismantle this system, pushing for self-custody protections, due process, and the removal of digital ID mandates. He details how Trump is revising the Genius Act's weaker clauses and installing a framework to safeguard American economic liberty before it's too late.This episode is a must-listen for anyone concerned about financial privacy, personal sovereignty, and the creeping merger of government and corporate control over your wallet. Christian Briggs delivers the uncensored truth—and a roadmap for action. Call your representatives. Demand due process. And most importantly, stay informed.Follow Christian Briggs at @BMCHAM on X and visit Hard Asset Management to learn more.

Two major cases. One attorney breaking down the evidence, the strategy, and where the legal system fails. Eric Faddis joins True Crime Today for a comprehensive analysis.On the Reiner case: Alan Jackson withdrew under circumstances he's "legally prohibited" from explaining — but declared Nick "not guilty of murder" on his way out. There's a sealed medical order. Ten sealed subpoenas. Nick appeared in a suicide prevention smock and reportedly isn't medically stabilized. Eric examines the competency question, what the gas station footage means, and whether losing Jackson fundamentally changes Nick's chances.On the McKee prosecution: Police announced a preliminary ballistic link through NIBIN connecting a weapon from McKee's property to the Tepe murders. Surveillance footage traced a vehicle to him — arriving before the killings, leaving after. Charges were upgraded to premeditated aggravated murder, death penalty eligible. Eric breaks down what evidence prosecutors need, how ballistics can be challenged, and what defense strategies remain for someone pleading not guilty.On domestic violence: The Tepe divorce records show no abuse allegations — just "incompatibility." But Monique's family says she was emotionally abused and "just had to get away from him." Eight years after the divorce, court activity brought McKee and Monique back together. Six months later, she was dead. Eric examines why victims don't document abuse, how the system treats emotional abuse differently, and whether this was a threat that could ever have been legally prevented.For anyone recognizing their situation in Monique's story, Eric offers legal advice on protection — and where the system's limits are.#EricFaddis #NickReiner #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #TrueCrimeToday #InsanityDefense #Ballistics #DomesticViolence #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Attorney Eric Faddis breaks down the legal landscape across two major cases — and exposes where the system works, where it fails, and what happens next.In the Nick Reiner case: Alan Jackson issued ten sealed subpoenas before withdrawing. He declared Nick "not guilty of murder" on the courthouse steps. There's a sealed medical order. Nick appeared in a suicide prevention smock. His medications aren't stabilized. Eric examines the competency question, what those subpoenas might reveal, and why the gas station surveillance footage showing Nick "calm" after the murders cuts both ways.In the Tepe case: Police announced a preliminary NIBIN ballistic link connecting a weapon from Dr. McKee's property to the murders. Surveillance footage captured a vehicle traced to McKee arriving before and leaving after. Charges were upgraded to premeditated aggravated murder — death penalty eligible. Eric breaks down what "preliminary" ballistic evidence means, whether it can be challenged, and what defense strategies remain.Then there's the domestic violence angle. Monique Tepe's family says she was emotionally abused. But the divorce records show no DV allegations, no protection orders — just "incompatibility." Eight years after the divorce, court activity brought McKee and Monique back together. Six months later, she was dead.Eric examines why victims choose not to document abuse, how the legal system treats emotional abuse versus physical abuse, and whether court filings can be weaponized to force contact with an ex-spouse.For anyone watching who recognizes their own situation in Monique's story, Eric offers legal advice on what steps victims can take to protect themselves — and where the system's limits are.#EricFaddis #NickReiner #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #HiddenKillers #InsanityDefense #Ballistics #DomesticViolence #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Attorney Eric Faddis joins Hidden Killers for an in-depth analysis of two major cases — the Nick Reiner prosecution and the murder charges against Dr. Michael McKee.On Reiner: Alan Jackson withdrew from representing Nick under circumstances he's "legally and ethically prohibited" from explaining — then declared Nick "not guilty of murder" on the courthouse steps. Nick appeared in a suicide prevention smock. There's a sealed medical order. His medications aren't stabilized. Eric examines whether this shifts to a formal competency challenge, what Jackson's ten sealed subpoenas might have uncovered, and why the gas station surveillance footage showing Nick calm hours after the murders is evidence that cuts both ways.On McKee: Police announced a preliminary NIBIN ballistic link connecting a weapon from McKee's property to the Tepe murders. Surveillance footage captured a vehicle traced to him arriving before and leaving after the killings. Charges were upgraded to premeditated aggravated murder — death penalty eligible in Ohio. Eric breaks down what prosecutors need to prove "prior calculation and design" and what defense options remain.On domestic violence: Monique Tepe's family says she was emotionally abused by McKee. But the divorce records show no allegations — just "incompatibility." She filed for divorce rather than dissolution and hired a private judge to expedite. Eight years later, court activity brought them back together. Six months after that, she was dead.Eric examines why victims don't document abuse, whether court filings can be weaponized, and where the legal system's limits are when threats go unreported.

Day three of the Brendan Banfield trial focused heavily on crime scene evidence, surveillance footage, and extensive DNA analysis. Jurors heard from multiple Fairfax County detectives, forensic specialists, and lab experts who walked through graphic crime scene photos, bloodstain patterns, and physical evidence recovered from the home.Testimony detailed the discovery of weapons, blood-soaked items, and a backpack containing items linked to the crime scene. Surveillance footage from McDonald's was introduced, establishing a timeline of Brendan Banfield's movements and phone calls in the minutes leading up to the 911 calls.The court also heard from firearms experts, fingerprint analysts, and forensic scientists who explained DNA testing on the knife, clothing, shoes, bedding, and other surfaces.Several samples showed mixtures of DNA from Christine and Joe Ryan, while other samples were inconclusive due to lab limitations. Y-chromosome testing was also discussed to explain how male DNA was evaluated when mixed samples were present.The state is nearing the end of its case, with only two witnesses remaining before it is expected to rest. Court will resume Tuesday following the holiday break.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pretty-lies-and-alibis--4447192/support.ALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout  - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

Bay Area police departments say automated license plate readers contracted by an Atlanta-based company called Flock Safety have been a powerful tool for solving crime. But Bay Area residents and privacy advocates are increasingly concerned about the impacts on our privacy, as the Trump administration continues its federal immigration crackdown. In Santa Cruz, the city council voted 6-1 to end its contract with Flock, citing reports that the city's data was accessed by out-of-state agencies.  Links: Santa Cruz the First in California to Terminate Its Contract With Flock Safety San Jose latest city to face questions whether federal authorities are accessing police license plate camera data Learn more about your ad choices.

Surveillance video and phone records took center stage on day three of the Brendan Banfield double murder trial as prosecutors worked to corroborate au pair Juliana Peres Magalhães's testimony with hard evidence. The jury watched footage from a McDonald's near the Banfield home showing the defendant waiting in the parking lot on the morning of February 24, 2023. At 7:37 AM, Banfield is seen leaving the bathroom with his phone pressed to his ear — matching call records that show Juliana phoned him at that exact moment.According to testimony, that call was the signal that Joseph Ryan had arrived at the house. Ryan was allegedly lured there through months of messages on the fetish website FetLife from someone he believed was Christine Banfield — but who prosecutors say was actually Brendan posing as his wife.Forensic testimony revealed Brendan's DNA was not on the knife allegedly used to kill Christine, but forensic scientist Katherine Colombo noted that police let him wash his hands before collecting samples. Blood on Banfield's jeans matched Christine's DNA. Fingerprint examiner Douglas Gudakunst testified that prints on the knife were inconclusive between Banfield and Ryan.Detectives also showed the jury photographs from eight months after the murders when they returned with a warrant. The master bedroom where Christine died had been completely transformed — new flooring, new furniture, and photos of Brendan with Juliana replacing images of Brendan with his late wife. Juliana had moved into that bedroom.Prosecutors established Banfield purchased a firearm less than a month before the killings and allegedly spent $30,000 on soundproof windows.

Unfortunately, email isn't going anywhere in our society because it's baked into how the digital world communicates; but luckily there are ways to make your emails more private. One tool that you can use is called PGP.

The China-Iran Partnership: Oil, Surveillance, and Regional Stability. Guest: JACK BURNHAM. Chinamaintains a pragmatic "partnership" with Iran, focused on extracting discounted oil. Beijing provides surveillance technology to help the Iranian regime suppress internal protests while officially calling for stability. Additionally, Chinese or Russian technology is suspected of disrupting Starlink satellites to hinder military communications.1945 US NAVY ANZIO IN SHANGHAI HARBOR

SHOW SCHEDULE1-14-251920 SALT RIVER China Urges Canada to Break from US Influence. Guests: CHARLES BURTON and GORDON CHANG. China is pressuring Canada to adopt "strategic autonomy" and distance itself from US influence as PM Mark Carney visits Beijing. Despite myths of economic salvation through Chinese trade, experts argue Canada'sexports to China remain minimal. Concerns persist regarding fentanyl production, Arctic neglect, and Chineseespionage. China's "Hollow Power" in Iran and Venezuela. Guests: GORDON CHANG and CHARLES BURTON. China's influence appears limited as it fails to substantively support struggling allies like Venezuela's Maduro or the Iranian regime. While China remains a major purchaser of discounted Iranian oil, it has proven unable to dictate events against US pressure. Experts describe China as a "hollow power." Trump's Iran Tariff Threat and China Trade Rift. Guest: ALAN TONELSON. President Trump's threat of a 25% tariff on any country trading with Iran significantly impacts China, which values this trade for political and symbolic reasons. China has already failed to meet its previous trade obligations, including soybean purchases and rare earth export licenses. Europe remains economically vulnerable. Electricity Costs, AI Demand, and Venezuela's Oil Reality. Guest: BUD WEINSTEIN. Rising US electricity prices, up 30-35% over five years, are driven by data center and AI growth alongside infrastructure underinvestment. Meanwhile, Venezuelan oil is deemed impractical for US demand due to high extraction costs and political instability. Rebuilding these fields would require massive, high-risk investments. Chinese Sinister Intentions in Cuba and Nicaragua. Guest: STEVE YATES. China maintains a significant presence in Cuba, utilizing the island for intelligence gathering and signals facilities targeted at the United States. As Venezuela's oil subsidies to Cuba potentially end, the island faces economic collapse. The US may utilize travel restrictions and economic pressure as leverage. The Risks of Venezuelan Oil and Soaring Copper Prices. Guest: SIMON CONSTABLE. American oil companies remain reluctant to invest in Venezuela due to the historical risk of nationalization and decayed infrastructure. In commodity markets, copper has reached an "astronomical" price of over $6 per pound, leading to a surge in theft from electronics and bridges globally. Artemis 2 Safety Concerns and SpaceX Dominance. Guest: BOB ZIMMERMAN. The Artemis 2 manned mission faces controversy over unresolved Orion heat shield damage observed during previous tests. Meanwhile, SpaceX has secured a monopoly on recent Space Force contracts, signaling a shift toward prioritizing reliability and cost over redundancy. China has filed for 200,000 new satellites. Scouting Mars for Helicopters and the Search for Alien Life. Guest: BOB ZIMMERMAN. Scientists are scouting landing sites for future Mars helicopters in areas containing near-surface ice, potentially for future Starship missions. Research suggests liquid water may have existed on Mars three billion years ago under protective ice sheets. Recent SETI results analyzed billions of data points without finding definitive alien signals. Venezuela's Power Vacuum and the Path Forward. Guest: MARY KISSEL, Executive Vice President at Stephens Incorporated. Mary Kissel discusses the "unfinished" state of Venezuela following the removal of Maduro, characterizing the remaining leadership as "thugs" and "gangs" focused on drug money. She explores the roles of Cuba, regional neighbors like Colombia and Brazil, and the Vatican's new moral leadership in the region. Iran in Transition: Assessing a Regime on the Brink. Guest: MARY KISSEL, Executive Vice President at Stephens Incorporated. John Batchelor and Mary Kissel analyze reports of Iran's potential collapse, citing internet blackouts and regime brutality. They discuss potential U.S. interventions, such as kinetic strikes or Starlinkaccess, and evaluate whether Reza Pahlavi is a credible transitional leader amidst concerns of the country breaking into ethnic factions. The Intellectual Factions of the "New Right". Guest: PETER BERKOWITZ, Hoover Institution Senior Fellow. Peter Berkowitz outlines the fracturing of the "New Right" into factions like national conservatives and post-liberals. Referencing Laura K. Field's book, Furious Minds, he notes these groups often reject Lockeanprinciples in the Declaration of Independence. However, he distinguishes these intellectuals from typical, non-ideological Trump voters. The New Right's Radical Rejection of Traditional Republicanism. Guest: PETER BERKOWITZ, Hoover Institution Senior Fellow. Berkowitz contrasts the New Right's desire for state-led social reform with the Republican Party's traditional focus on liberty and limited government. He discusses Michael Anton's views on the "right of revolution" and warns that attacking classical liberalism risks eroding essential protections against bigotry and persecution in America. Plunging Russian Oil Prices and the Impact of Global Sanctions. Guest: MICHAEL BERNSTAM. Russian oil prices are dropping significantly, with some major brands selling between $34 and $35 per barrel. Westernsanctions and global supply gluts allow buyers like China and India to extract massive discounts. Future stability in Iran could further increase competition, driving Russian revenues and taxes even lower. Pakistan's $1.5 Billion Arms Deal with Sudan and China's Strategic Influence. Guests: RICK FISHER and GORDON CHANG. Pakistan is nearing a deal to supply jets and drones to Sudan, likely funded by Saudi Arabia. China uses these transactions to establish alternative security structures in the Middle East. Experts suggest China prefers ongoing conflict over peace to maximize profits and regional influence. The Collapse of the Chinese Real Estate Market and Economic Stagnation. Guests: ANNE STEVENSON-YANG and GORDON CHANG. China's property sector faces a permanent downturn, with prices dropping 30–60% and enough vacant apartments to house billions. The government lacks the funds for a rescue. Xi Jinping'sfocus on high-tech is insufficient to replace real estate, which previously accounted for 25% of GDP. The China-Iran Partnership: Oil, Surveillance, and Regional Stability. Guest: JACK BURNHAM. Chinamaintains a pragmatic "partnership" with Iran, focused on extracting discounted oil. Beijing provides surveillance technology to help the Iranian regime suppress internal protests while officially calling for stability. Additionally, Chinese or Russian technology is suspected of disrupting Starlink satellites to hinder military communications.

Surveillance technology is advancing faster than the laws meant to govern it. Across the United States, police departments are deploying automated license plate readers, facial recognition tools, and predictive systems that quietly log the daily movements of millions of people. These tools promise efficiency and safety, but critics argue that they represent a form of The post America Under Surveillance with Michael Soyfer appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.

Episode: 3244 Bias and Diversity in Photography and Face Recognition Software.  Today, bodies, in beautiful black and white.

On March 15, 2024, a Piedmont, Oklahoma police officer responded to a routine runaway report that would uncover one of the most disturbing child abuse cases in recent Oklahoma history.The officer found a 14-year-old girl hiding under a blanket, weighing approximately 60 pounds—the size of a first grader. Her skin hung from her bones, and her eyes carried a fear that went far beyond a typical runaway. She had fled from her foster mother, 43-year-old Tina Marie Ramirez, and she was terrified to go back.What the officer discovered inside the Ramirez home shocked even veteran investigators. Every cabinet was padlocked. The refrigerator was locked. The pantry was locked. Surveillance cameras covered every room in the house. The children couldn't access food without permission—and permission was rarely granted.The officer found a taser that Tina had used as "discipline" on the malnourished children. He also discovered a handwritten letter from one of the children, addressed to God, its desperate words scrawled by a child who had lost hope that any human would help.This was the girl's seventh runaway attempt. For reasons that remain unclear, this time someone finally listened.Five foster children were immediately removed from the home and evaluated at OU Children's Hospital, where medical professionals described it as one of the worst malnutrition cases they had ever seen. The children were placed with their biological grandmother, Shelly Yates, who described them as "fragile and very thin" upon arrival.On March 28, 2024, Tina Marie Ramirez was charged in Canadian County District Court with four counts of child abuse by injury, two counts of child neglect, and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. Her husband, 26-year-old Anthony Ibeziako, was charged with two counts of child neglect and child abuse for failing to intervene. Both remain free while court proceedings continue.As of early 2026, the children are reportedly recovering with their grandmother—gaining weight, attending school, and slowly rebuilding their lives away from the locks, cameras, and fear.This episode features body camera footage, police interrogation recordings, and 911 dispatch audio.
