Peter Stumpp was arrested accused of being an "insatiable bloodsucker” - which, in 1589, meant he was being accused of being a werewolf. Even stranger… Peter readily admitted to being one.IN THIS EPISODE: For years the doctors couldn't figure out why Wally was coughing so much, why his skin cracked and bled, turning the bedsheets red. They prescribed ointments, antibiotics, decongestants, pain killers. His guts ached for years, too, and even morphine didn't help the pain. He died a wraith, 73 years old. The government says it has no idea what happened to him, but then that's because he worked in Area 51. (Area 51 Killed My Husband) *** Two accounts of Bigfoot are reported from Illinois. But these aren't your typical sightings. They take place in the middle of the night, possibly inside a dream. In fact, they aren't described as Bigfoot – but as a wookie, like Chewbacca from Star Wars. But then, how do you explain the accounts being exactly the same from two complete strangers? (Wookies In Illinois) *** Peter Stumpp was arrested accused of being an "insatiable bloodsucker” - which, in 1589, meant he was being accused of being a werewolf. Even stranger… Peter readily admitted to being one. (The Man Who Went On Trial For Being a Werewolf) *** It's first sighting was described as “half man and half beast, standing about five feet six inches, with a tall pointed head. Whatever it was that he had seen, he was convinced that it was neither a bear nor a monkey.” We take a look at the mysterious creature, the Yeti. (Taking a Look At the Yeti Phenomenon) *** On May 16, 1929, Al Capone was arrested in Philadelphia on gun-carrying charges – but it was a put-up job that unfortunately led to a year in prison and Capone's first encounters with the ghost that he believed haunted him to the grave! (Al Capone and the Ghost of Jimmy Clark) *** Seeing an intruder while in the shower may sound cliché for the movies – but not so much when it happens to you. (Those Strange Fingertips) *** Multiple women have disappeared without a trace from what has become known as Ireland's ‘vanishing triangle'. Their fates still remain a mystery. (The Ireland Vanishings) *** When you see something out of the corner of your eye, simply to turn and not see anything there… is it your imagination, or is something else at work? (From Work to Home) *** The ancient pterodactyl, the legendary thunderbird, the cryptid known as the Mothman: could they all be one and the same?

When Kouri Richins was arrested in May 2023 for allegedly poisoning her husband Eric with a fentanyl-laced Moscow Mule, the case against her seemed overwhelming. Financial desperation. Life insurance policies. A housekeeper who said she sold Kouri the drugs. A drug dealer who confirmed the fentanyl. Nearly three years later, as jury selection approaches for her February 2026 trial, the prosecution's case has been carved up by defense wins and judicial rulings. The drug dealer, Robert Crozier, has recanted — now claiming under oath he sold OxyContin, not fentanyl. Judge Mrazik severed 26 financial felony charges from the murder trial, meaning the jury won't hear about Kouri's alleged mortgage fraud, money laundering, or the nearly $5 million her business owed the day after Eric died. The prosecution's domestic violence expert was blocked. Their FBI behavioral profiler was limited to rebuttal-only testimony and cannot be used to suggest guilt. Statements Kouri made during a 2022 search were suppressed because detectives didn't Mirandize her. What prosecutors still have: Carmen Lauber's testimony, Eric's toxicology showing five times the lethal dose of fentanyl, an orange notebook allegedly detailing the night of his death, and the infamous "Walk the Dog" letter found in Kouri's jail cell that prosecutors call witness tampering. The defense says it was fiction. The Utah Supreme Court refused to move the trial out of Summit County despite surveys showing nearly 80% of residents recognize the case. Eight jurors will decide if what's left is enough to convict.#KouriRichins #TrueCrimeToday #EricRichins #UtahMurder #FentanylPoisoning #MurderTrial #WalkTheDogLetter #DefenseWins #TrueCrimePodcast #KouriRichinsTrialJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Kouri Richins murder trial begins February 23rd, 2026, and the prosecution's case looks nothing like it did when she was arrested nearly three years ago. Robert Crozier — the man who allegedly sold fentanyl to Kouri's housekeeper Carmen Lauber — has signed a sworn affidavit saying he never sold fentanyl at all. He now claims it was OxyContin, and that he was detoxing and "out of it" during his original police interview. The defense says this throws a grenade into the state's entire theory. Without Crozier confirming fentanyl, the chain connecting Kouri to the drug that killed her husband is broken. But Judge Richard Mrazik isn't buying it — he says there's still substantial evidence, and Kouri remains in jail without bail for the third time. Meanwhile, prosecutors lost their bid to introduce 26 financial fraud charges to the murder jury, their domestic violence expert was blocked entirely, and their FBI profiler can barely testify. The defense also got key statements from a 2022 search suppressed after detectives failed to read Kouri her Miranda rights. What's left? A housekeeper's testimony, a handwritten notebook prosecutors say details the night Eric died, and a letter found in Kouri's jail cell that looks a lot like witness tampering — unless you believe her claim it was fiction. After years of delays, appeals, and pretrial warfare, this case finally goes to a Summit County jury. We break down everything — the evidence that survived, the evidence that didn't, and what both sides need to prove when testimony begins.#KouriRichins #EricRichins #KouriRichinsTrial #TrueCrime #FentanylMurder #SummitCounty #UtahMurderTrial #WitnessRecants #HiddenKillers #MurderTrial2026Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Judge Brian Jackson of the U.S. District Court has certified a class action lawsuit against Angola Prison on behalf of men forced to perform punitive farm labor under unconstitutional conditions and in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Under this ruling, the court certified two specific groups: a primary class encompassing all persons currently or potentially assigned to the Louisiana State Penitentiary (LSP) Farm Line, and a specialized subclass for those with disabilities assigned to the same labor. In his findings, Judge Jackson noted that nearly every individual arriving at the facility is assigned to the Farm Line upon entry, with the majority remaining at risk of reassignment as a disciplinary measure.Guest:Samantha Pourciau is a Senior Staff Attorney at The Promise of Justice Initiative based out of New Orleans, Louisiana.Credits:Host: Mansa MusaProducer / Videographer / Post-Production: Cameron Granadino Resource links:https://promiseofjustice.org/news/incarcerated-farm-line-workers-win-class-certificationhttps://therealnews.com/prisoners-sue-over-inhumane-conditions-on-angolas-brutal-farm-linehttps://therealnews.com/prison-farms-and-agricarceral-slave-laborhttps://therealnews.com/louisiana-still-imprisons-people-convicted-by-jim-crow-juries Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

The GUILTY Verdict was handed down to Brendan Banfield, the former IRS agent charged with four counts of aggravated murder in the deaths of his wife Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan. Prosecutors allege Banfield and the family's au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, lured Ryan to their Herndon home through a fetish website and staged the killings as a home invasion.The defense argues digital forensics contradict the catfishing theory and that investigators who disagreed were reassigned. Banfield faces life without parole if convicted. The four-week trial continues in Fairfax County.#TrueCrimeToday #BrendanBanfield #AuPairAffair #MurderTrial #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #FairfaxCounty #JulianaMagalhaes #Justice #BreakingJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Trust account expert Lazaro Cardenas explained something to jurors this week that changes everything about the Colts Neck murders: Keith Caneiro's $3 million life insurance policy was structured so that Paul would only benefit if Keith, Jennifer, AND both children were all dead. Not just Keith. All four of them. According to prosecutors, this is why 11-year-old Jesse and 8-year-old Sophia weren't spared. They weren't collateral damage. They were allegedly necessary casualties. A detective testified that Sophia had a stab wound to her left eye. The final recorded phone call between Keith and his brother Paul captures a man demanding answers hours before his murder. "Give me the f***ing login, Paul!" Keith is heard saying, giving his brother a deadline to provide access to a trust account. Prosecutors say Keith had discovered Paul was stealing from their shared businesses and was cutting him off from a $225,000 salary. A neighbor put a timestamp on the killing. Dennis Corpora testified he woke up around 3:20 AM on November 20th, 2018. "I heard the shots, and I said, 'Someone just got whacked.'" Hours later, four people were dead and the mansion was burning. Prosecutors say Paul shot Keith outside the home, then went inside and stabbed Jennifer and the children before setting the house on fire. Hours earlier, he allegedly set fire to his own Ocean Township home while his wife and daughters slept inside. The defense wants jurors to look at a third brother, Corey, claiming police never investigated him. But the murder weapon, silencer, night-vision scope, bloody jeans with the children's DNA, and a go-bag with a passport were all found at Paul's house. For the defense theory to work, Corey would have had to commit quadruple murder and plant all the evidence. That's not reasonable doubt. That's fiction.#PaulCaneiro #KeithCaneiro #ColtsNeckMurders #JenniferCaneiro #MansionMurders #CaneiroTrial #MonmouthCounty #FamilyAnnihilator #TrueCrimeToday #CourtTVJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Verdict was handed down today in Fairfax County, Virginia. Banfield, a former IRS agent, is charged with four counts of aggravated murder in the February 2023 deaths of his wife Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan at their Herndon, Virginia home.Prosecutors allege Banfield plotted the killings with the family's Brazilian au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, with whom he was having an affair. Magalhães has pleaded guilty to manslaughter and is expected to testify against Banfield. The defense maintains digital evidence does not support the state's catfishing theory.#BrendanBanfield #AuPairAffair #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #Testimony #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #FairfaxCounty #HiddenKillers #BreakingJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Arkansas Supreme Court removed Judge Barbara Elmore from Aaron Spencer's murder case 48 hours before trial was set to begin. This is the same judge who released Michael Fosler on bond after he was charged with 43 felonies including alleged rape of a minor. The same judge whose gag order the Supreme Court already struck down as a "plain, manifest, clear, and gross abuse of discretion." The same judge who ignored their warning and restricted public access again. Now 14 state legislators have filed a formal complaint with the Judicial Discipline Commission. The Supreme Court granted a Writ of Certiorari to review every ruling Elmore made. And retired Judge Ralph Wilson—31 years on the bench, known as an advocate for children—is taking over one of the most watched trials in Arkansas. Aaron Spencer is the Lonoke County father charged with second-degree murder after killing Fosler. According to the defense, Fosler showed up with Spencer's 14-year-old daughter in his vehicle at 1 a.m. after she went missing from her bedroom—despite being charged with sexually assaulting her and ordered to stay away from minors. Spencer told authorities he rammed Fosler's truck off the road and shot him after Fosler allegedly lunged at him. The dashcam footage that could have supported the defense's version of events reportedly vanished—the SD card gone weeks before trial. But the bodycam from three months before the shooting, showing Spencer's grief when he learned about his daughter? Prosecutors kept that. They want it in front of the jury. Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down what the judicial removal means, what prior rulings could be reconsidered, and whether this case should have ever been charged. Spencer is still running for Lonoke County Sheriff while awaiting trial.#AaronSpencer #JudgeBarbaraElmore #ArkansasSupremeCourt #MichaelFosler #BobMotta #LononkeCounty #JudicialMisconduct #SelfDefense #TrueCrimeToday #JusticeSystemJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Former prosecutor turned defense attorney Eric Faddis delivers dual-perspective analysis on two murder cases making national headlines: Michael McKee in Ohio and Kouri Richins in Utah.The McKee case looks strong on paper. Surveillance footage allegedly places him at Monique and Spencer Tepe's property weeks before the murders. Witnesses describe death threats going back years. Stolen license plates. A phone that went dark. Vehicle tracking data. Eric breaks down which evidence is most damaging from a prosecution standpoint—then switches sides to reveal the defense's playbook: motions to exclude prior abuse allegations, hearsay fights over statements from the deceased victim, and strategies to create reasonable doubt.The Richins case is in crisis. Trial starts February 23rd, but the defense just alleged witness intimidation—claiming investigators threatened arrest and immunity revocation to force cooperation. Key fentanyl sourcing witness Robert Crozier has recanted, now saying he sold OxyContin, not the fentanyl that killed Eric Richins. Judge Mrazik has limited the FBI profiler, excluded domestic violence evidence, and only partially admitted the "Walk the Dog" letter.No fentanyl was ever recovered. No pills. No forensic link. Five times the lethal dose in the victim's system—but a supply chain theory that just collapsed.Eric Faddis knows what prosecutors are building toward and what defense attorneys are planning to tear apart. This is the complete breakdown of both cases from someone who's worked both sides.#MichaelMcKee #KouriRichins #MoniqueTepe #EricRichins #TrueCrimeToday #MurderCases #ProsecutionStrategy #WitnessRecants #WitnessIntimidation #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

New testimony in the Paul Caneiro murder trial has revealed what may be the most haunting detail yet in this seven-year-old case. Detective Joseph Cordoma testified that blood stain patterns inside Keith Caneiro's Colts Neck kitchen indicate eleven-year-old Jesse Caneiro was a "mobile blood source" - moving around the kitchen island, leaving blood on surfaces, tracking toward the foyer and the front door. Jesse's body was found at the base of that island. Jennifer Caneiro's family left the courtroom before the detective explained his conclusions.Cordoma also testified the mansion fire was intentionally set in a basement storage closet around 3 a.m., with the Verizon line cut to prevent the alarm from transmitting. The fire burned slow for hours by design. Meanwhile, prosecutors presented testimony that Keith's computer server went offline at 3:18 a.m. - and that Paul later texted an employee claiming Keith had messaged him about the power being out. If the prosecution's timeline holds, Keith was already dead.The defense continues to raise questions about Corey Caneiro, the third brother who was never investigated and whose DNA was never collected. Paul Caneiro maintains his innocence. The trial continues.#PaulCaneiro #ColtsMurders #MansionMurders #TrueCrime #MonmouthCounty #KeithCaneiro #JesseCaneiro #SophiaCaneiro #MurderTrial #TrueCrimeTodayJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis delivers the definitive analysis of two murder cases dominating headlines: the Michael McKee case in Ohio and the Kouri Richins trial in Utah.On McKee: Eric examines the prosecution's case against Monique Tepe's ex-husband from both sides of the courtroom. The affidavit details surveillance footage, death threats spanning years, stolen plates, cell phone blackouts, and vehicle tracking. Which evidence is most critical? Where are the weaknesses? Then Eric flips to the defense perspective—the motions to exclude prior abuse allegations, the hearsay battles over statements Monique made to friends, and how to create reasonable doubt when the phone went dark and the car was tracked arriving and leaving.On Richins: Two weeks before trial, the prosecution is taking hits. The defense just alleged witness intimidation—investigators allegedly threatened witnesses with arrest and immunity revocation. Key sourcing witness Robert Crozier has recanted, saying he sold OxyContin, not the fentanyl that killed Eric Richins. Judge Mrazik limited the FBI profiler and excluded domestic violence evidence. The "Walk the Dog" letter is only partially admitted.No fentanyl was ever found. No pills. No forensic link. Five times the lethal dose—but how do you prove poisoning when your supply chain is broken?Eric Faddis spent years building cases like these—and he's spent years tearing them apart. This is the full breakdown of prosecution strategy, defense playbooks, and where both cases could still go wrong.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #KouriRichins #EricRichins #MurderCases #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #WitnessRecants #MurderTrialJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two very different closing arguments in the double murder trial of Brendan Banfield. The defense ended strong, poking holes in the au pair’s testimony, saying none of it can be trusted, first because she has every incentive to cooperate with the prosecution and second, because the digital forensics don’t support the au pair’s and prosecution’s catfishing narrative. The prosecution sped though their closing, going through the evidence they presented, point by point, finishing in less than 20 minutes. There was no storytelling and little emotion, and ended with this conclusion: either you believe the au pair or you believe Brendan Banfield. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Kouri Richins murder trial is two weeks away and the prosecution is facing a credibility crisis on multiple fronts.Defense attorneys just filed a motion accusing lead detective Jeff O'Driscoll and investigator Travis Hopper of intimidating state witnesses. Text messages attached to the filing allegedly show O'Driscoll threatening one witness with arrest and jail if she didn't submit to prep sessions she had refused. His message reportedly included a threat to return with "a warrant and a catch pole for the dog." A second witness claims Hopper warned that their immunity agreement could be revoked for declining additional interviews.This follows months of pretrial battles over evidence and witness credibility. In January, defense attorneys questioned O'Driscoll's truthfulness during suppression hearings about whether he knew Richins had an attorney when he interviewed her. Summit County brought in outside counsel to investigate. The defense also revealed that Robert Crozier — the man prosecutors say supplied the fentanyl that killed Eric Richins — has recanted, now claiming he sold OxyContin, not fentanyl.Prosecutors maintain substantial evidence still supports the charges. Judge Richard Mrazik denied Richins' third bail request in November, finding the recantation creates holes but not enough to undermine the case.Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder and maintains her innocence. She's been held in Summit County Jail since May 2023.

Kouri Richins goes to trial in two weeks on aggravated murder charges for allegedly poisoning her husband Eric Richins with fentanyl. But the prosecution's case is taking serious damage heading into opening statements.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the chaos on True Crime Today.The defense just filed a motion alleging witness intimidation. Detective Jeff O'Driscoll allegedly threatened a witness with arrest and "a catch pole for the dog" if they didn't cooperate with prep calls. Investigator Travis Hopper allegedly told another witness their immunity could be revoked if they declined additional meetings. Is this witness intimidation—or standard prosecution tactics?The bigger problem: Robert Crozier has recanted. He was the state's key fentanyl sourcing witness—the link between the street supply and the housekeeper who allegedly gave drugs to Kouri. Now Crozier says he sold OxyContin, not fentanyl, and that he was detoxing and confused during his original interview. The defense says this "eviscerates" the prosecution's theory.Eric analyzes whether the state can pivot—and whether pivoting mid-trial destroys credibility with the jury.Judge Mrazik's pretrial rulings add complexity: the FBI profiler is limited in what she can say, domestic violence evidence is excluded, and the "Walk the Dog" letter is only partially admitted. That letter, allegedly found in Kouri's jail cell, appears to instruct her mother how to testify.No fentanyl was recovered. No pills. No murder weapon. Five times the lethal dose in Eric's system—but a broken supply chain.

Two families destroyed by violence. Two different kinds of institutional failure. On True Crime Today, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott — author of The Minds of Mass Killers — provides expert analysis of the psychology behind family annihilation and the systemic failures of America's addiction treatment industry.The Paul Caneiro trial in Monmouth County, New Jersey, has revealed staggering violence. Prosecutors allege Paul murdered his brother Keith, sister-in-law Jennifer, and their children Jesse and Sophia after Keith discovered Paul had stolen $78,000. Eight-year-old Sophia was stabbed 17 times, including a wound to her eye, and was allegedly still alive when the fire started. Shavaun explains what drives family annihilators to kill everyone rather than face accountability, what overkill violence reveals about psychological state, and how to read courtroom emotion.The Nick Reiner case exposed the failures of a $42 billion addiction treatment industry. The Reiner family had every resource available — access, money, the best facilities — and Rob and Michele Reiner are still dead. Shavaun examines why the 28-day model keeps failing, who profits from relapse, why insurance companies control treatment length over clinical judgment, and why fifty years of dismal outcomes haven't triggered meaningful reform. Essential expert analysis of how systems fail the families they're supposed to protect.#ShavaunScott #PaulCaneiro #NickReiner #RobReiner #KeithCaneiro #FamilyAnnihilation #AddictionTreatment #TreatmentFailure #ColtsNeck #TrueCrimeTodayJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Magalhães has pleaded guilty to manslaughter and is expected to testify against Banfield.

The Kouri Richins murder case just took a sharp turn nobody saw coming — and it's not about the defendant. It's about how the prosecution has allegedly been treating its own witnesses.Defense attorneys filed a motion this week revealing text messages they say show lead detective Jeff O'Driscoll threatening a reluctant witness with arrest, jail, and a "catch pole for the dog" if she didn't comply with witness prep. A second witness with immunity was allegedly told by investigator Travis Hopper that their deal was conditional on continued cooperation — cooperation they say they already provided two years ago.This is the same Detective O'Driscoll whose credibility was challenged in January suppression hearings after the defense claimed he testified falsely about knowing Richins had an attorney. An outside investigation found no evidence of untruthfulness, but the questions remain.Meanwhile, the prosecution's key drug source — Robert Crozier — has recanted his statement that he sold fentanyl to Richins' housekeeper. He now claims it was OxyContin. Prosecutors argue the recantation doesn't hold up. The defense says it "throws a grenade" into the state's case.Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty and maintained her innocence since her May 2023 arrest. She's accused of fatally poisoning her husband Eric Richins with fentanyl in March 2022. Trial begins February 23rd.When state witnesses start asking the defense for help, something has gone sideways.#KouriRichins #HiddenKillers #WitnessIntimidation #EricRichins #UtahMurder #TrueCrimePodcast #FentanylMurder #DetectiveODriscoll #CriminalJustice #MurderTrialJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Amy and T.J. go over the explosive, direct testimony of Brendan Banfield today. This morning we got to hear for the very first time, Banfield’s version of how his wife Christine and a stranger, Joe Ryan died in his master bedroom. Prosecutors say Banfield, along with this lover and family’s au pair lured Ryan to the home to kill and frame for his wife’s murder.

Meantime the prosecution tried to score points with its rebuttal witnesses, including Banfield’s former manager. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
