Podcasts about system failure

Sonny Von Cleveland opens up about serving nearly two decades in prison and the harsh realities of being young, white, and unprepared for prison life. Pulled into violence and survival politics at an early age, Sonny breaks down what it really takes to make it through long prison sentences, the fear, the mistakes, and the lessons learned the hard way behind bars. He speaks candidly about navigating race, identity, and power inside prison, how incarceration forced him to confront his past, and the mindset shift that ultimately saved his life. Today, Sonny has transformed his story into purpose as a speaker, mentor, and community leader, proving that even the darkest chapters don't have to define how the story ends. _____________________________________________ #PrisonSurvival #MichiganPrison #PrisonLife #TrueCrime #LifeInPrison #PrisonStories #SurvivingPrison #incarceration _____________________________________________ Connect with Sonny Von Cleveland: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sonnyvonclevelandofficial/ Website: https://www.sonnyvoncleveland.com/ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 First Days in Prison: Shock, Fear, and Survival 02:00 Growing Up in the Midwest Before Prison 06:40 Family Trauma, Abuse, and a Broken Childhood 12:00 Surviving Abuse and Learning to Cope 17:00 Running Away, Street Life, and Early Crime 21:00 The Road to Prison: Charges, Conviction, and Sentencing 24:40 Entering Adult Prison for the First Time 26:00 Prison Violence, Gangs, and Losing Innocence 31:30 Regret, Lost Youth, and Missed Chances 35:40 Solitary Confinement, System Failures, and Mental Survival 41:00 Release, Reoffending, and a Second Prison Sentence 46:00 Life After Release: Family Conflict, Crime, and Betrayal 52:00 Solitary Confinement, Transformation, and Forgiveness 59:00 Self-Reflection, Growth, and Mental Survival in Prison 01:03:00 Teaching Others, Service, and Finding Purpose Behind Bars 01:09:00 Leaving Gang Life and Choosing a Different Path 01:14:00 Reentry After Prison: Starting Over From Nothing 01:19:00 Using His Story to Help Others Avoid Prison 01:22:00 Final Advice, Redemption, and Life's True Purpose Learn more about your ad choices.

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. For anyone recognizing their own situation, Eric offers advice on what steps victims can take.#EricFaddis #NickReiner #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #RobReiner #HiddenKillers #InsanityDefense #DomesticViolence #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott's complete three-part breakdown of the Nick Reiner case—examining his individual psychology, the family dynamics that trapped the Reiners for 30 years, and the systemic failures that allowed tragedy despite unlimited resources.This comprehensive analysis covers Nick's schizoaffective disorder and medication destabilization, how families normalize dangerous behavior, why 18-plus rehabs weren't enough, and the impossible questions this case raises for other families dealing with severely mentally ill loved ones.The full Shavaun Scott interview on Hidden Killers.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MentalHealth #Psychology #FamilyDynamics #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott #SystemFailureJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

We're taking your questions throughout as we examine Nick's individual psychology, the family dynamics that trapped the Reiners, and the systemic failures that allowed tragedy to unfold.PART ONE: Nick's schizoaffective disorder, the medication change one month before the murders, and the psychology of admitting guilt while believing punishment is a conspiracy.PART TWO: How the Reiner family "grew used to" dangerous behavior, how Nick reportedly manipulated 18-plus treatment facilities, and what happens to parents after 30 years of failed intervention.PART THREE: Why the mental health system failed despite unlimited resources, why patient autonomy laws prevented intervention, and what other families need to know.Join us live with your questions. This is our most comprehensive look yet at what happened to the Reiner family—and what it means for families facing similar situations.#NickReiner #RobReiner #LIVE #MentalHealth #Psychology #HiddenKillersLive #ShavaunScott #FamilyDynamics #SystemFailureJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This episode contains in depth discussion of infanticide, postpartum psychosis, suicide, and severe mental illness. Listener discretion is advised.In 2001, Andrea Yates drowned her five children in a case that shocked the nation and was quickly labeled as one of the most horrific crimes in American history. But what if the story most people remember is incomplete?In this episode of When Killers Get Caught, host Brittany Ransom revisits the Andrea Yates case with updated medical, legal, and psychological context focusing not on shock value, but on what the system missed before the tragedy ever occurred.Andrea Yates suffered from severe postpartum psychosis, a rare but life-threatening psychiatric condition that causes hallucinations, delusions, and a complete break from reality. She had a long, documented history of mental illness, multiple hospitalizations, suicide attempts, and explicit medical warnings not to be left alone, not to stop medication, and not to have more children. Those warnings were ignored.This episode breaks down:The warning signs of postpartum psychosis and why it is a psychiatric emergencyHow religious extremism and untreated mental illness collidedWhy Andrea Yates's first trial resulted in a wrongful convictionHow misinformation in court influenced a juryWhat changed after her acquittal by reason of insanity and what still hasn'tWhy women with postpartum psychosis are still more likely to be incarcerated than treatedMore than two decades later, Andrea Yates remains confined to a state psychiatric hospital. Her case is now taught in medical schools and cited in maternal mental health advocacy yet many of the same systemic failures remain.This is not a story about a monster. It's a story about untreated illness, institutional failure, and a tragedy that unfolded in plain sight.Because when systems fail, the truth always leaves a trail.Follow and join the conversation:

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers LIVE to break down the systemic failures that allowed Nick Reiner to cycle through treatment for 30 years without ever being properly helped. We're taking your questions on why the mental health system failed the Reiner family despite unlimited resources.Nick went to 18-plus rehab facilities. He'd stay 30 days, detox, and leave before any real psychiatric work could happen. Sources say doctors didn't put him on a psychiatric hold during his medication transition—a hold that could have lasted 14 days. Patient autonomy laws let him refuse treatment and walk away.What does appropriate care for schizoaffective disorder actually look like? Does it even exist? Why can't families with unlimited money get better outcomes? Join us live as Shavaun explains what went wrong and what other families need to know.#NickReiner #RobReiner #LIVE #MentalHealth #Rehab #HiddenKillersLive #ShavaunScott #Treatment #SystemFailureJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Our week in review on the Mickey Stines case — a recusal motion that's frozen everything, and the systemic failures that allowed an elected sheriff to spiral unchecked.Special Judge Christopher Cohron abruptly adjourned court days before a critical hearing. The defense had discovered something: video footage showing Cohron seated inches from Judge Kevin Mullins at a Kentucky Judicial Commission on Mental Health meeting — seven days before Mullins was shot to death in his chambers. Cohron never disclosed this connection. Defense attorneys Jeremy and Kerri Bartley argue that in a case built entirely on Stines' mental state, this undisclosed proximity creates an appearance of bias. They point to Cohron's rulings blocking psychiatric evaluation from the bond hearing as further evidence.But we also examined what everyone saw coming before December's shooting. Court filings paint a chilling picture: Mickey Stines called dead relatives on his phone. Lost weight rapidly. Stopped sleeping. Displayed paranoia. His own staff pushed him to see a doctor. The diagnosis was acute stress reaction. The response was to send him home — badge, gun, authority intact. Twenty-four hours later, Judge Mullins was shot nine times.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer broke down the structural failures. Kentucky has no red flag law. An elected sheriff cannot be suspended by subordinates. There was no mechanism to disarm him. The civil lawsuit accuses sheriff's office employees of failing to warn Judge Mullins. Their defense? Kentucky law imposed no duty to act.Stines has been held without bond for over fifteen months. No trial date. Prosecutors haven't announced whether they'll seek the death penalty. Everything waits.#MickeyStines #JudgeKevinMullins #ChristopherCohron #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBI #LetcherCounty #KentuckySheriff #SystemFailure #HiddenKillers #WeekInReviewJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense attorney Bob Motta joins us live to break down two cases dominating headlines — the Sarah Grace Patrick trial delay in Georgia and the Reiner murders in California — and take your questions in real time.Sarah Grace Patrick, 17, is charged as an adult with murdering her mother Kristin Brock and stepfather James Brock in Carroll County, Georgia. The trial was set for January 5th, 2026. It didn't happen. Prosecutors requested more time to respond to a defense neuropsychologist's evaluation, and Judge Dustin Hightower pushed the case to August 3rd, 2026. The defense's earlier continuance motion was denied. When the state needed time, they got seven months.Bob Motta examines what this signals about the prosecution's case. No murder weapon has been produced. No forensic evidence linking Sarah to the killings has been publicly disclosed. No firearm was found at the scene. Claims about disabled cameras remain unproven allegations. The Carroll County Sheriff's Office announced they had "mountains of evidence" — but the state couldn't go to trial.Then we turn to the Reiner case. Nick Reiner is accused of killing his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, in Brentwood. This is the fifth alleged patricide in Southern California in recent weeks. Police had responded to the home multiple times over the years. Nick had cycled through seventeen rehab programs. His father reportedly told friends the night before that he was "petrified" of him. California's mental health laws made meaningful intervention nearly impossible. We discuss what families can actually do when warning signs are everywhere and the system offers no options.Join us live with your questions.#SarahGracePatrick #NickReiner #BobMotta #LiveStream #TrueCrimeLive #DefenseAttorney #MentalHealthCrisis #CarrollCounty #RobReiner #TrueCrime2025Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Today we investigate who and what killed the 15 hour work week that has been forecast for humans for almost a century. In an age of unprecedented abundance, generated by technology and automation, the benefits have not been passed onto the public but rather stored in online clouds, tax havens, assets and bank accounts by an ever growing class of billionaires. How are they getting away with it and how do we stop them chewing up the best years of our life with financial debt and drudgery? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#foryou #podcast In 2010, two days after Christmas, Iain hugged his daughter goodbye—believing she was simply going to the library. He never saw her again. What followed was a shocking case of familial human trafficking, international abduction, and systemic failure. The U.S. Embassy called it “out of jurisdiction.” Courts ignored his pleas. Desperate, he confronted the man he believed was his daughter's abuser—only to be incarcerated for 50 months in Poland. Iain spent four years in prison, wrote a book, and is now speaking worldwide, still fighting to be heard.

We complete our journey into Axel Rudakubana's darkness with a look at some of the wealth of information uncovered by the recently-completed first phase of The Southport Inquiry, which has taken place at Liverpool Town Hall.   Special attention is given to the testimonies of Gary Poland, the unfortunate taxi driver who delivered Axel to the place of his atrocity, Axel's brother Dion and their parents Alphonse and Laetitia.   The timeline is as imperfect as the system that sought to deal with a severe case of a ‘problem child', as we jump around key events and try to make sense of a 5-year period in the Rudakubana family's lives that saw an apparently well-adjusted 12 year old with a passion for acting and Doctor Who transform into a monster (as his father admits he now is).   The episode ends with some final thoughts from the Inquiry chairman as we try to build a brighter future   Thanks for listening and see you in December!   Feedback to lifeandlifeonlypod@gmail.com   Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/lifeandlife75   Twitter https://twitter.com/lifeonly75   Support the show at: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/antonyrotunno OR https://www.buymeacoffee.com/antonyrotunno   Antony's website (blog, music, podcasts, life coaching)  https://www.antonyrotunno.com   Antony's John Lennon podcast https://glassoniononjohnlennon.com   If you are interested in very affordable Life Coaching, or know someone who might be, you can contact Antony on lifeandlifeonlypod@gmail.com   episode links Liverpool Echo Inquiry updates in full (latest at the top) https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/live-southport-inquiry-updates-32420881   News reports regarding the testimonies of Gary Poland, Dion Rudakubana and Alphonse Rudakubana https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waoIVeV-ZwY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFz7jTQeBbk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqRT1JtTB-Q   What is Trauma? https://psychcentral.com/health/what-is-trauma   Axel's taxi ride, police arrival and arrest https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72kZoJTw5FE&t=6s   Craig Houston on the rather strange Axel arrest video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxWO6gH1Tss   Police interviews with the child killers of James Bulger https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaSq6RPqMrU

As a renegade crew of podcasters links arms and attempts to figure out what happened to Charlie Kirk, we're joined by former Daily Telegraph, Australian and Sky News journalist, Fred Pawle, for a closer look at the history of CIA interference in media, politics and several assassinations. We look at where this crosses over with Israel, Mossad, Zionism and Christian Zionism, and examine how deep the manipulation of the mainstream media really goes with a guy who used to work in the middle of it.

How does a child disappear while every agency insists it's “following policy”? Tonight on Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski and the panel trace the bureaucratic breakdown that let Melodee Buzzard, 9, fade from every official record. Complaints were filed. CPS was warned. The school marked her “independent study.” And still, no one saw her for more than a year. We unpack the entire chain of failure — from overloaded caseworkers and loophole homeschooling laws to judges demanding “visible danger” before approving removals. The grandmother reported rotting food and filth; social workers logged a “monitor.” By the time anyone knocked again, Melodee was gone. Now the FBI is digging through her mother's Lompoc home, a storage unit, and a rental car that traveled 1,500 miles — searching for proof of what happened. This isn't just one tragedy. It's a blueprint for how neglect hides in plain sight when red tape replaces common sense. #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #MelodeeBuzzard #CPS #ChildProtection #California #SystemFailure #TrueCrimeToday #LawAndCrime #MissingChild #FBIInvestigation #GroupDiscussion Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

How does a child disappear while every agency insists it's “following policy”? Tonight on Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski and the panel trace the bureaucratic breakdown that let Melodee Buzzard, 9, fade from every official record. Complaints were filed. CPS was warned. The school marked her “independent study.” And still, no one saw her for more than a year.

In this episode, I dive into the controversial RCMP shooting of Chase De Balinhard in Surrey, British Columbia — a neurodivergent man carrying what appeared to be a firearm near a school, later revealed to be a pellet gun. While headlines rushed to condemn the police and call for inquiries, I challenge the narrative that accountability rests solely on the officers involved.Through the lens of my own experience as a first responder, I break down how incidents escalate in microseconds, not slow-motion replays. I share personal near-death calls, life-or-death decisions made in chaos, and the harsh reality of responding without the luxury of hindsight, pause buttons, or public opinion.This episode asks uncomfortable but necessary questions:How did Chase walk out of his home with a weapon unchecked?Why was he able to move freely around a school for so long?Where did the system fail him before police arrived?And what responsibility do families, services, and society hold?I speak with empathy for Chase's family and for the officers who now carry this weight. Blaming police alone ignores the deeper failures that led to tragedy.This is a conversation about nuance, accountability, compassion, and the unseen cost of being a first responder.If you want soundbites and outrage, this isn't that episode.If you want honesty, context, and humanity — press play.

Banking executives face a familiar dilemma: decades-old core systems technically constrain innovation while replacement costs can reach hundreds of millions of dollars and take years to implement. Meanwhile, fintechs launch new products in weeks while traditional banks remain trapped in months-long approval cycles. The challenge extends beyond technology. "Most banks duct-tape capabilities onto what they already have, and eventually they break," explains Ritesh Rihani, Vice President of Enterprise Banking at Galileo. "You've seen the number of outages we've had in the industry recently. That's all happening because they put duct tape upon duct tape." The pressure to modernize comes from multiple directions. Customer expectations have evolved toward integrated experiences and ease of use and operational risks multiply as the pool of COBOL programmers shrinks through retirement. Regulatory compliance becomes increasingly difficult with manual processes and fragmented systems. This podcast explores five critical dimensions of core modernization: balancing costs with competitive necessity, understanding operational and regulatory risks, implementing incremental transformation strategies, enabling product innovation, and unlocking the future potential of modern banking architecture.

System Failure — Why “Mandatory Reporting” Isn't Protecting Our Kids In School You might believe that when a teacher raises alarm, the system responds. But the truth is far darker. In this opening episode, legal expert Eric Faddis exposes why mandatory reporter laws—meant to protect children—so often fail in practice. Across every U.S. jurisdiction, educators are mandatory reporters. By law, they must act the moment they reasonably suspect child abuse or neglect. They're protected from legal consequences if they report in good faith, even if it turns out to be a false alarm. And yet—schools regularly sideline these cases. They "investigate internally" rather than alert law enforcement or Child Protective Services. They treat serious, albeit unproven, concerns as HR issues instead of safeguarding crises. Giving a teacher the benefit of the doubt becomes a shield for predators. This episode peels back the curtain on how internal investigations are weaponized to avoid legal liability and bad press—not to protect students. We ask: what happens when mandated reporting becomes optional by omission? What recourse exists when districts are legally—but not morally—allowed to remain silent? Eric breaks down the difference between policy and enforcement. He explains how fear of reputation damage or lawsuits keeps schools from doing what's legally—and ethically—required. If you're tired of hearing “teachers aren't protected” while seeing kids remain unsafe, hit play—and let's begin pushing back.

No Amber Alert: The Travis Decker Case System Failures That Cost 3 Lives Episode Description: When three young girls went missing with their father Travis Decker, every second counted. Yet inexplicably, no Amber Alert was issued. This episode of Hidden Killers examines the catastrophic system failures that prevented the public warning system from activating when it was needed most. We investigate the rigid bureaucratic criteria that failed the Decker children, exploring why law enforcement hesitated to "push the button" despite clear danger signs. Travis Decker, a homeless veteran struggling with untreated PTSD and borderline personality disorder, had been granted unsupervised visitation despite his ex-wife Whitney's desperate warnings to the court. Legal expert Eric Faddis joins us to explain how the Amber Alert system's requirements for "reasonable belief of abduction" created a deadly delay. We analyze the missed opportunities, from the court's initial custody ruling to the final hours when a public alert might have saved three innocent lives. This isn't just about one tragic case - it's about fixing the broken systems that continue to fail our most vulnerable children. A must-listen for anyone who believes in accountability, child safety, and systemic reform.

For the past two years, Jani has been relentlessly stalked by her partner's ex-wife. What started as quiet manipulation escalated into anonymous threats, endless court hearings, and desperate pleas for help—only to be met with silence from a system that refused to intervene. Despite repeatedly violating an intervention order, her stalker has faced virtually no consequences, leaving Jani to navigate the fight for justice alone. Today, Jani is breaking that silence. She's here to share her story, shed light on the institutional gaslighting and gender bias that allow stalkers to slip through the cracks, and reclaim the power that was taken from her. By speaking out, she's not just telling her truth—she's making sure no one else has to face this kind of terror alone.HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED STALKING?
